Fresh ingredients, unique flavors and a memorable
Fresh ingredients, unique flavors and a memorable experience. Service and atmosphere are excellent. My only suggestion would be to dial back the quantity of sauce or dressings on many of the entrees. For example, the salmon is a phenomenal cut of fis
The restaurant interior was very nice and cozy.
I sat at the bar where the fish and jelly tanks were. The hostess and bar backs were super friendly and attentive. The food is tapas style so my wife and I shared. I honestly was not that biggest fan of the flavors and was a bit sad they used frozen

Went on a date night with my wife and family to a new restaurant tonight. I was really skeptical about trying something new. Happy to say this place was great. Our waitress was fantastic and the food was amazing. If you are in the neighborhood please
Wow is the only way to describe everything we enjoyed.
From the crispy chicken bites to the scallops, ceviche, Lomo Saltado, and gaucho bread, everything was delicious and beautifully presented. But it did not stop there, the deserts were luscious. And amazingly, they even had a dessert with no dairy. Wh
We bring people here every time we get a visit.
This was the first restaurant my husband and I went to when we moved here and it's still one of the best we've been to. It's delicious. It's fun. It's beautiful! Everyone here is friendly and knows what they are talking abo

Walked in on a Tuesday night to eat my feels and got seated immediately at the bar. I don't usually enjoy perching on tall bar seats and trying to juggle my belongings but I was mesmerised by the jellyfish tank behind the bar. Super cool to watc

An incredible Latin-inspired culinary journey! The empanadas are flaky and flavorful, and the whole roasted chicken is perfectly seasoned and juicy. Vibrant atmosphere, creative cocktails, and impeccable service. An absolute must-visit in Portland!

What a vibe! This bar is seriously next level with the jellyfish tank and aquarium--such a cool atmosphere. The servers are super chill and genuinely nice. Food came out fast, looked amazing, and tasted even better. Totally worth every penny. This pl
I really enjoyed the dim lighting, and intimate seating.
The service was friendly and had good recommendations. In all honesty I couldn't pick a favorite dish from this meal. The shrimp ceviche had great flavor, the bread had a delicious chimichurri paired with it, and the empanadas were perfectly c
Simply amazing
This place is fabulous! The ambience, the service, and best of all, the food! We tried all the vegetarian options on the menu and loved every single bit of it. Highly recommend the Elote, the veggie empanadas, the mushroom dish, and the chimichurri b

Such an amazing experience! It was all delicious! Bone marrow - chefs kiss! Ceviche - will have us running back!
Great service at the bar.
We liked the food, but overall the dishes felt a tad salty. I liked the shaved jicama salad the most. There were people consistently coming in all night so the vibes were good!
The ambience was great.
Service was phenomenal. I had a passion fruit margarita that turned out to be my favorite drink I had while visiting Portland. The food was good, we had the scallops, short rib buns, octopus, bone marrow, and beef tartare. The marrow came with a sof

Consistently good food--I've been here many times and it never disappoints. Celebrated a colleague's birthday recently and everything was great.
Very good restaurant, 4 stars all day.
I like the brick exterior and the charming, cozy interior as well. The slight miss for me was the portion to price ratio and ultimate execution. I just moved here from Miami. Miami is many things, not all good, but the Peruvian food scene is likely
12/10 experience at Lechon all around.
The restaurant itself is quite big; where we were seated felt very cozy and intimate. Our server Caden was attentive and took care of us well. Now, onto the food... We decided to go with the Chef's tasting menu, plus an order of smoked bone mar

Such good food, service and ambiance! We shared five dishes, the goat cheese salad, cheese empanadas, tuna ceviche, mushroom toast, and clam pasta. Everything was incredible, but the clam pasta is not to be missed. The drinks are also awesome - we go

I love coming to later on every time I'm in Portland if you love good drinks and Popeyes this is your place. The ambience is great. You can sit inside or outside. I really enjoy sitting at the bar because there's an aquarium with jellyfish
Wow! A flavor extravaganza!
Had dinner here for the first time recently. We arrived without reservations, and were seated at the bar after a relatively short wait. Everything we tried was delicious including the ceviches, empanadas, chicken and meat pies. The bartender was frie
Prepare for a flavor explosion!
This was one of our most memorable Portland experiences. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the items we ordered, but I am going to wax poetic about the smoked duck breast for a minute. The texture was like a well-cured ham. The smokiness accentuated the f
Fantastic southe American inspired food
Great food, not one dish we didn’t enjoy. The following dishes were great - plantain fritters, Hawaiian shrimp, elote (amazing), salmon, farmers salad and chocolate dessert. Great sauces, well seasoned, and pretty presentation. Restaurant is so coo
Favorite meal!
My favorite meal on this vacation! The ribeye was amazing. The scallops were so delicious and the crème brule was the perfect end. Oh! And the elote was the perfect side with amount of perfect seasoning, a little spicy but not too much. Every bit
Wonderful dinner
What a lucky night to get to done at this restaurant. Read reviews on this site and was happy to get a spot. Really great dinner. We did the tasting menu and everything was delicious. Our server Ella was helpful and very engaging. Scallop ceviche was

Best anniversary location in our 30 years together..
It was all perfect. The food was was all very flavorful and cooked to perfection. Sophie our waitress was very attentive and helped us thru the many choices on the menu. We were wowed and we will spread the word about our 30th anniversary dinner loca
LeChon is amazing and good at adding new things with the classics.
We went to try the Iberico Especial pork - it was so good. A savory carnivores delight. Chef came to our table- service was attentive and professional. It is a top spot in town for sure- classic but also trying new things.
What an amazing night out we had going to Lechon.
Our server was great and let us know that we had a good amount of food ordered and that we should be good but can always add in and left a menu with us. They have an old fashioned bar which my wife enjoyed and I had lost tropics and was just as much
Charming Ambiance and Tasty Tapas
I loved the ambiance here, especially the cool fish tanks and the mesmerizing jellyfish display behind the bar. We decided to try several dishes, opting for tapas. While each dish was good, they didn't quite live up to the rave reviews I'd read. On a

This place was amazing- from the service, food, drinks, and the vibes, it was all superb! We came without reservations but got sat pretty quickly at the bar since it was only the two of us. We wanted to try this place out because it was tapas style

Wow. There are no words really. ( yet of course I will find too many!) I went to this South American inspired restaurant by recommendation back home. I was told to get the gaucho bread... A nan like bread with chimichurri and salt, and it was beautif

Delicious tapas place! Drinks were delightful and so was the food! We went for happy hour and ordered the patatas, shrimp ceviche, and foraged mushrooms. For drinks, we got the mal humorado and shine eye gal. So delish! 4.5 stars rounding to 5 :)
Lechon has very nice vibes and atmosphere.
Try getting here early for dinner service because everyone seems to know this is where you can get good foods and drinks.
I didn't know Lechon had vegan lava cake.
It was a game changer with the vegan ice cream and whipped cream. The tapas are also delicious as always! I really enjoy the flavors blending together from the variety of plates. Excellent service! The food was prepared quickly and we were able to
Lechon is always a great place to eat at.
First came here a few years ago and was amazed how great the food and service was. We didn't have a single bad dish. Came back a few months ago for happy hour and again everything tasted amazing.

Had a client dinner here And was pretty happy with our experience. Our server wasn't too outgoing, seemed as if she was overwhelmed with a number of tables she was managing. Our total time at dinner was 2 1/2 hours which I thought was a little long.

We were visiting Portland and this was walking distance from our hotel. I'm so glad we stumbled upon it! The ambiance and decor is incredible. My daughter loved the fish tank and jellyfish wall, of course. All the staff were so friendly and helpful
Fantastic food and service
This place was fabulous! We ordered four South American-inspired tapas: ahi ceviche, steak tartare, lomo saltado, and bone marrow. Everything was phenomenal. We also both ordered supremely tasty mocktails and finished it off with a banana dessert tha

Best meal in a long time
Great place! Food was exceptional. Wait staff was very friendly and knowledgable. Would highly recommend.
Fast Service
Booking is recommended if you don't want a wait for dinner. Service is efficient and friendly. We decided on the tapas option and chose 6 selections between the two of us. Unfortunately, and a major fault with the service, is that the plates came rap
Yummy, fun spot!
Food was totally spot on with some unique and delicious twists and service was great! One of our fav meals!
Phenomenal food
Phenomenal food! everytime I go to Lechon I am completely full and satisfied. I have been here 4 times in the last 2 years and already have plans coming up again soon. The flavors are wonderful and they have many vegetarian options.
Got to try this unique restaurant with distinctive and unique tastes. Highly recommended
From the cocktails to the Tapas to the banana Carmel pie the flavors and tastes were wonderful and unique! We visited on a busy evening and sat @ the bar but the service was great and the staff checked with us regularly.

Aside from all the glowing reviews about Lechon, what really sold me was the JELLYFISH TANK. It's my dream to own one in my unaffordable home one day so it was nice to just sit and stare at it while my food got cold.Anyway, Lechon is a tapas type res
The forage mushrooms are a delight.
The steak is cooked to perfection. The customer service and the food were excellent. The seating is a little tight but good enough space for a close gathering.

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Lechon Portland. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Lechon Portland at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Lechon Portland page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FluffyStar64, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* FluffyStar64 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FluffyStar64 for any questions Peter may have as FluffyStar64 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FluffyStar64 now uses their connections at Lechon Portland to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FluffyStar64 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FluffyStar64 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FluffyStar64's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Lechon Portland!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
