This week, we continue our countdown of Portland’s best new restaurants of 2023. At No. 3: Xiao Ye (xiaoyepdx), the Hollywood neighborhood’s new "first-generation American restaurant."
From our restaurant critic Michael Russell:
Xiao Ye might be the Mandarin for “midnight snack,” but a this isn’t some late-night Taco Bell run or regrettable Dominio’s binge.
Take the all’amatriciana, its rigatoni cooked just al dente, barely slicked with ever-so-spicy tomato and a few scraps of guanciale. Like any pasta worth its salted water, it’s hard to put down, if a little more austere than other versions around town.
