While pizza may be our favorite Italian Food, we still have a large place in our heart for the entire Italian food family. And how could we not!? With traditional Italian dishes like chicken parmesan, lasagna, ravioli, and spaghetti and meatballs, it's a wonder we ever leave the Italian restaurants in Portland. While Portland may be a bit further than a stones throw from Rome, the flavors and dishes at these restaurants in Portland are authentically Italian.
