Little Bird Bistro is a French bistro in Portland, Oregon, in the United States.
Description and history
Little Bird is a French bistro in downtown Portland. It has been called Le Pigeon's "downtown sister".[1] The Oregonian's Michael Russell described the restaurant as a "Swiss Army knife, stately enough for a business lunch, lively enough for an anniversary dinner, yet able to handle a drop-in at 10:45 p.m."[2] The dining room, which was designed by Mark Annen, features robin egg blue walls, tall mirrors, and taxidermied birds.[2]
In 2015, Gabriel Rucker replaced opening chef Erik Van Kley. Rucker's team of chefs included Marcelle Crooks, Andrew Gordon, and Su Lien Pino.[2] As of 2015, Kristen Thoennes serves as general manager and Andy Fortgang is Little Bird's wine director.[2]
Reception
In 2012, Little Bird was The Oregonian's selection for "Restaurant of the Year".[2][3] In 2016, the newspaper ranked Little Bird number 16 on its list of "Portland's 101 best restaurants".[4]
