Our Kitchen
Tartuca is the sum of decades in the restaurant industry, coupled with connections to local food-growers, and friendships that turned into working partnerships. Every shelf built, every dish plated, every idea brought to life is a result of the shared knowledge gained from mentors throughout our careers.
We're thrilled to be a part of this community and intend to be your weekly neighborhood Italian spot.

Rolled, cut, and shaped in the open kitchen — paired with sauces built from what's at market that week.
A tight, considered list — regional Italian bottles chosen to drink well with our menu and priced for the neighborhood.
A small dining room and an enclosed outdoor patio — both built for lingering over a long, share-plate dinner.
Word From the Room
"Deliciously unique but unpretentious elevated Italian comfort food in a cozy setting with friendly staff. Nice selection of regional Italian wines at reasonable prices. Great place for a romantic dinner or to show off Portland's charm to out of town guests."
"The pastas we shared were beyond exceptional. Every bite was so balanced and exciting. Light, yet rich. It doesn't matter what you order because it will be the best thing you will put in your mouth all day."
"Randomly went in on a Friday night without reservation and we were blown away! Exceptional plates of food and sincere diligent service. The bolognese, the meatballs and the parsnips with ricotta were some of our favs."
Private Dining
The dining room and patio are available for private events — birthdays, rehearsal dinners, small gatherings. Tell us what you have in mind.
Dinner at Home
Call us during service for take-out. Not every menu item travels well, so the available list shifts nightly — we'll walk you through it.
