Davenport pdx

Davenport is closed today for a private event! In case you forgot, we’re hosting the epic, the exquisite, the unhinged THE VERTICAL WINE DINNER with .selections and a host of French Burgundy producers!
See you there if you’re a wine nerd with expendable income, otherwise we’ll see you tomorrow 😘

YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS
(If you don’t, keep reading. If you do, we’ll see you at 5.)

Gnudi. Think gnocchi but with cheese and greens—in this case, Nettles—tender and pillowy and so sumptuous, it’ll become your new favorite comfort food. First timers often order a second bowl. This means they go fast, so you’ve been warned!

Calling all wine lovers (so....95% of our demographic?)!
We're so pleased to announce that we're cohosting THE VERTICAL WINE DINNER with .selections in which we'll host three incredible Burgundy producers within our pistachio-green walls! They aren't just bringing their incandescent personalities: they'll each have a vertical flight of Burgundy to share.

- Thiebault Huber with organic and biodynamic Burgundy from Meursault
- Vincent Chevrot , one of two brothers of Domaine Chevrot whose family has been making Burgundy in Maranges since 1830
- Odilon Marchand .odilon.marchand of with deliciously drinkable Burgundy from Nuit-Saint-Georges

What's a vertical flight, you ask?
A vertical flight features multiple vintages of one wine from a single producer. It allows you to truly explore the approach of the winery and defining terroir of the region, separate from weather events and other variables from year to year.
TLDR: it's a way to really nerd out on a particular winery.

Come party with us! Tickets are limited. Head to davenportpdx.com/events to learn more and secure your spot, or email mark at caveauselections dot com to register directly.

LET'S PARTY, PORTLAND (this is going to require so much glassware)

Winter sunshine, chilly but bright? Sounds like an oyster!

Speaking of, Davenport is serving up *three* glorious oyster varieties this weekend, and you don’t have to choose between them. and will shuck them for you to order with love, or as lovingly as one can wield an oyster knife.

Smelt caption contenders:

- “The Old Man and the Sea” (Kevin)

- “You’re gonna need a bigger boat 🦈” (Jeremy)

- “It’s giving fish” (Christopher)

- “Whoever smelt it dealt it” (the humble social media manager. And I’m sorry.)

No matter how you say it, smelt are here from the Columbia River. Come n get it!

GREETINGS!
Davenport reopens tonight at 5pm after a sunny Florida sojourn! This guy just had a birthday and he brought Florida sunshine home with him to Portland!
Come say hello and raise a glass with us to the inimitable 🥳🥳🥳

Today (and for an unknown span of time this week), we will have not one but TWO pasta dishes on our menu!
This is a big deal, because 1) our pastas are widely beloved, and 2) they are made BY HAND. By and 's hands, to be specific! Barilla, we would never.
In honor of this double pasta feature, we invite you to 💥PICK YOUR DAVENPORT PASTA FIGHTER💥
🍝 Gnocchi
🍝 Agnolotti
🍝 Fideos
🍝 Gnudi (not technically pasta, but still in the pasta spirit)
Leave your Davenport pasta fighter in the comments and we'll respond.
For those who are curious, here are our pastas on today, January 21, until sold out:
POTATO GNOCCHI. Shrimp, saffron, fennel, sun-dried tomato.
RABBIT AGNOLOTTI. black trumpet mushrooms, parmesan.

Hello from the darkest, gloomiest part of winter! If you can’t beat the dark, embrace it by sinking deeply into a booth and huddling over a warm bowl of bean, pork belly, and fennel soup and perhaps a just-as-warming glass of wine (or whiskey! Your call). We are here for you, in spite of the sleepy darkness, as a beacon of hospitality and good company in this social desert we call January.

Wow, Portland.
We are so proud of you. I mean, we knew you have great taste, but you really came out on new year’s and proved it to us. emptied the recycle bin to celebrate the evidence.
Thanks for hanging with us at the close of the year! We hope you’ll open the new year with us, too—Davenport is open today and tomorrow per uhz with more wine, should you require it! And who doesn’t?

XOXO

There’s still time to join us tonight for snacks, fabulous company, and 20% off champagne! Let’s toast to the end of 2025. We made it. You look great. How about some bubbly?

Oh boy. When it comes to restaurants, Portland is like Prince: nonstop hits, constantly reinventing itself and the industry, and aesthetic af. I guess what we’re saying is, it’s an honor to continue to pop up on this list after over a decade of being open, even as new and fantastic places enter the arena. Thanks for appreciating what we do over here, and !!

Portland! Save your leftovers for Sunday night. Tonight is for low-effort but lovely experiences where *someone else* does the cooking and cleanup.
Davenport is open 5-9ish tonight! Come squish into a booth and raise a glass with us to toast the end of the year.

🥂🥂and a reminder🥂🥂
We’ll be open NYE from 3-7 for happy hour! Make us your first stop that night before we all dissolve into the sunset of 2025 together 🥰
