5 & Dime co-owners and bartenders Colin Carroll and Alex “Goose” Gesler have a long resume of high-end cocktail spots (Trifecta Tavern, for instance), and they bring those skills to the table with a menu of classic and original drinks in a stylish-but-modest bar. Although 5 & Dime is bringing in some big-deal talent, the prices are neighborhood-friendly, with a casual atmosphere and most drinks hanging out between $7 to $11.

Tokyo legend Afuri ramen passed up London, New York and Dubai for their first foreign outpost. Afuri’s main requirement? A city with pure, ramen-worthy water. Lucky for us, Portland was at the top of the list. One slurp of the signature yuzu shio broth and you get what the fuss is about: the flavors of gently simmered chicken and dried seafood mingle in a subtle soup steeped with Japanese citrus, which lends each mouthful of noodles a lingering grapefruit tang. But this isn’t just another Japanese ramen chain putting down roots in our town. Afuri is aiming to create a stateside shrine to Japanese food culture in total—ramen and sushi to skewers and sake—the scope of which Portland has not yet seen.
