Recently, I had the pleasure of dining at Dolly Olive, a gem located at the corner of SW 12th & Alder in downtown Portland. This spot, formerly known as Bistro Agnes, offers a cozy and intimate ambiance, perfect for a special occasion or a delightful brunch. The menu is a food lover's dream, with standout dishes like the Buccatini, Cauliflower, Butternut Squash, and Polenta. Although the vegan options are limited, the vegetarian selections are plentiful and equally tempting. The cocktails, especially the Violet's Pride and False Start, are crafted to perfection, enhancing the dining experience.
The restaurant's ability to create a memorable meal shines through in their brunch offerings as well. The zeppole, sprinkled with festive colors, are a must-try, light and perfectly sweet. For those who enjoy a savory start, the Italian sausage with broccoli raab and a fried egg on top, or the baked eggs in purgatory, provide a flavorful kick to kickstart your day. The atmosphere is lively yet allows for good conversation, making it an ideal spot for both brunch and dinner.
Service at Dolly Olive is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall warm experience. Whether you're there for a special dinner or a casual brunch, Dolly Olive promises a culinary adventure that's hard to forget. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!
