Navarre

Portland


A paper menu at this industrial-elegant restaurant lists various small plates (don't call them tapas), which rotate daily – though a few popular dishes like the 'Bird' (chicken braised in sherry vinegar and garlic) are fixed commodities. Best option: let the chef feed you what he likes (per person $38). There's an epic wine list, and weekend brunch is as good as dinner.
