About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Hot spot
  • Great for fine wines
OX Restaurant finds inspiration in the wood-fired grilling tradition of Argentina, and with it, the culinary heritage of Spain, France and Italy.

The name OX pays homage to the work animal that pulls the plough, tilling the soil and replenishing the land’s ability to produce its fruits, vegetables, and grains.

Showcasing prime local meats and fish, OX also features seasonal produce in distinctive preparations.

OX harnesses the culinary talent of Portland chefs Greg Denton and Gabrielle Quiñónez Denton in a friendly and comfortable neighborhood restaurant with an energetic vibe and creative menu designed to appeal to the palate of the Pacific Northwest.

    Always great food at Ox and the service is very prompt and professional. The service part of restaurants can be pretty hit or miss in Portland, but Ox takes their service seriously. It’s one of my favorite restaurants in Portland. Would recommend to anyone.

    A very welcoming place with incredible service and food. We loved sharing different dishes from the empanadas to salad and skirt steak, etc. We brought our celebratory wine and appreciated the upfront and gracious way the corkage fee was explained. It is a bit pricey, but worth every penny for a very special experience.

    Servers were extremely attentive. Highly recommend the marrow clam chowder. Large portion sizes definitely worth sharing and for the price point. Look forward to trying other things on the menu
