Roe is a seafood restaurant in Southwest Portland built around the quality of its fish and shellfish, paired with technique that shows up in every dish. The room stays casual upscale rather than formal, matching a menu that leans on the ingredients themselves rather than over-explaining them.
Regulars and reviewers consistently point to the seafood quality as the draw, with service pacing that can vary from night to night. The consensus is that the experience justifies its price point.
The kitchen has been recognized three times by the James Beard Foundation, earning Best Chef semifinalist honors in 2014, 2015, and 2016.
