Description
[edit]Named after the forrest of William Shakespeare,[2] the Pacific Northwest[3] restaurant and wine bar Arden operates in northwest Portland's Pearl District.[4][5] Portland Monthly has described Arden as a "cozy" and candlelit establishment where "a stool at the bar lands a front-row view of the open kitchen".[6] The restaurant has offered a tasting menu as well as à la carte options.[7] Arden has served chorizo sausage, truffle pierogis,[8] and a fennel salad.[9]
History
[edit]Arden is owned by Kelsey Glasser.[10][11][12] Sara Hauman was the opening executive chef.[13][14] Erik Van Kley became the chef in 2019.[4][5][15]
