Higgins
Higgins Review
Chef Greg Higgins, former executive chef at the Heathman Hotel, focuses on ingredients from the Pacific Northwest and on organically grown herbs and produce while incorporating traditional French cooking styles and other international influences into his menu. Start with a salad of warm beets, asparagus, and artichokes or the country-style terrine of venison, chicken, and pork with dried sour cherries and a roasted-garlic mustard. Main courses change seasonally and might include dishes made with Alaskan spot prawns, halibut, duck, or pork loin. Vegetarian items are available. A bistro menu is available in the adjoining bar, where comfortable leather booths and tables provide an alternative to the main dining room.

This place fills up quickly, but we were lucky to be given a table at the window. The food comes out from the kitchen very quickly, and was excellently prepared and attractive on the plate.

We have dined at Higgins only one time for dinner. The dining room is very nicely appointed and we were seated at a table by the window which was nice. The King Salmon special was excellent, the salad was just average but very good, nothing really special about it.
Our server had been there for many years and was very cordial and friendly. He made the meal here lots of fun. We look forward to returning here again and again. It has been a Portland classic for many, many years.
