Wildwood Executive Chef Dustin Clark will fire up his barbecue on the patio, grilling fresh ingredients from local farms for the restaurant’s new weekly happy hour – “Garden Grilling.”  The Tuesday happy hour menu celebrates seasonal Pacific Northwest ingredients at Portland prices – $5 each.   The new value-oriented happy hour menu offers three new dishes each week, depending on what the farmers deliver.

Wildwood’s happy hour beverage menu includes white and red wines ($5), a specialty cocktail ($5) and a select beer ($2-$3).

Garden Grilling happy hour will take place on Wildwood’s front patio overlooking NW 21st St. every Tuesday throughout the summer.

23 Hoyt:

Here’s the great thing about 23 Hoyt’s happy hour menu: it runs until 7:00. Although I really like a good happy hour, I rarely make it out of the office in time to get somewhere by 6:00 p.m., so a later happy hour always makes me, well, happy. When I first went to 23 Hoyt’s happy hour I was seriously questioning whether it would pass the $10 happy hour challenge. I was expecting small portions and large prices, mostly given the location, atmosphere and clientele. I was pleasantly surprised on all fronts.
