Dame Portland Reviews from The Last Year

I really enjoyed the food here, with the exception of the Cacio E Pepe, which surprises me b/c it seems to be a signature dish of theirs. I found it lacked any flavor, I definitely didn't get "pepper" from this dish. The Beef Carpaccio was one of the most unique dishes I've ever had. The Shaved Foie Gras just melted in your mouth and took this dish to the next level. Its definitely one that I will not forget, ever! The other dish that we really enjoyed was the Risotto. It was cooked perfectly, with a great balance of flavor, we enjoyed this very much. Overall, I really enjoyed Dame, and will likely be back.
The service was good, ambiance good and the food was mostly
The service was good, ambiance good and the food was mostly good. We ordered the beet salad, wagyu carpaccio, mapo tofu ragu and squid ink bucatini. The wagyu was melt in your mouth excellent, beet salad was nice and had a warm spice to it, I enjoyed the ragu but unfortunately the squid ink pasta was excessively salty. If it hadn't been for the squid ink pasta, I would say don't pass this place up! However, when it's one of the two main entrees and largely misses the mark it's hard to walk away feeling satisfied. Would definitely give this place another shot though given everything else was on point.
Excellent meal with slightly generous portions for this
Excellent meal with slightly generous portions for this kind of restaurant. I had the trout-pan fried to perfection and the side veggies were delicious. Partner had the pork -it came with polenta; both were good-especially the polenta! Overall: great meal and we will absolutely visit again!
Very tasty.
We had the Caesar Salad, Cacio E Pepe, & Squid Ink Pasta. The Cacio E Pepe ($18) was very fresh and light tasting. I wouldn't do takeout for it tho, you gotta eat it right away as the cheese starts hardening right away. I kind of like the change in texture it provides halfway thru the meal. I liked the sharpness of the cheese in this dish. The squid ink bucatini was fantastic too tho different than other squid ink pastas - it comes in a shrimp broth so is sort of a noodle soup. The broth is very savory and tasty and good size shrimp too (tho I wish there were mussels as well). The noodles were prob my favorite - hard to describe, they were soft and light yet firm and bouncy. Awesome noodles. You can see them making them by hand in the back room too. I'm not usually a dessert guy but the chocolate cake was amazingly decadent, like eating a cake sized truffle from the Swiss Colony catalog (iykyk). The inside is very portland style - too cramped and small with mostly bench style seating. My only complaint about the food would be way too much red cabbage in the Caesar Salad, made it too bitter. It was like a full head of cabbage lol. But that's what I get for ordering a salad I guess.
Calm but cool ambience, good service, and delicious food

I'm really not sure why I took so long to try Dame because WOW. The food, the ambiance, and the service. Dropped by with my husband on my birthday and had some of the most delicious food ever. We knew that we'd over-order because I always want to try so many different things but we went a little crazy here -- I do admit it. For apps, we got the bread, the cauliflower soup to share while my husband tried the crudo. Then we grabbed the cacio e pepe, the ravioli and my husband got the braised pork coppa for his omnivore self. When I tell you that we were blown away by the food, I'm not even remotely joking. I loved every bite of every single thing we had and I'd legitimately got back to Dame just for the SOUP and BREAD. Even their so called simple little offerings were incredible. The cacio e pepe and the ravioli were both absolutely perfect. Have you ever had a dish where you wouldn't even add one more grain of salt? Well that's what everything here was like. Delicate, balanced, and seasoned with thought so that each bite had the perfect amount of salt and flavor. My husband's pork came with polenta that was honestly the best cooked polenta I have ever had in my life. For dessert, we finished it off with the ricotta donuts and the panna cotta both of which were delicious -- and both of which we would absolutely get again. If you're sitting here contemplating about trying Dame, let me save you the worry and recommend that you get yourself here IMMEDIATELY. Absolutely worth the visit.
Finally dined here after eyeing this place for so long.
I've tried some other food under dame collective and was impressed but Dame ended up being really underwhelming. Every dish was visually appealing but ended up lacking that wow factor. The albacore tuna crudo was flavorless. The marinate seemed to be so light with the only note being citrus. The sauce from the cacio e pepe was overly cheesy and hard to eat. It wouldn't pull apart and coagulated quickly. The squid ink bucatini was a confusing dish because it was literally noodles in stock. Was I eating noodle soup? Luckily the beet salad was good but I was still disappointed in this meal overall. I like the cozy hip neighborhood vibes of the interior though. I think this is an average place to dine but don't expect amazing food innovative flavors here.
Really lovely servers, hostess, and atmosphere.
A little hard to identify from the street (Killingsworth) in the dark (and in my case, snow), but this is a great spot. Will go back for the wine list and the menu: plus plus plus.
The culinary experience was truly exceptional, with flavors
The culinary experience was truly exceptional, with flavors that delighted the palate. The service exhibited a remarkable level of professionalism, complementing the inviting ambiance of the restaurant. Overall, a delightful dining experience that exceeded expectations.
We made a 5:30 bar reservation for Saturday.
It's a cozy atmosphere. The bartender and hostess were very friendly. Everything we ordered was delicious - Butternut Squash soup, tuna crudo, cacio e pepe, fall risotto and chocolate cake. I loved that it was intimate and we could hear each other talk.
Dame and me
A lovely restaurant Decent service Wonderful Cacio a Pepe Delicious Gazpacho Wine geek wine list( weak in local wines, oddly) Our server volunteered that they would time things, so that we could order everything , and that they would time it perfectly. Not so much, but a petty complaint. Didn’t “ get” the z beef carpaccio w Foie… over my head. I’d gladly go back for the pasta!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
