From the Restaurant Site...
Inspired by the cuisine and wine of the Piemonte region of Italy, Chef Kurt Spak opened Alba Osteria in Portland’s Hillsdale neighborhood in 2003.
The 48-seat Alba Osteria is influenced by the many small restaurants (“osteria”) in and around the Piemontese city of Alba. Our menu is Piemontese in inspiration but built around local, sustainable, and organic products. The menu changes frequently to take advantage of the Pacific Northwest’s seasonal bounty. The format is authentic osteria, with a variety of antipasti, several pasta dishes, including Piemontese mainstays tajarin and agnolotti dal plin, entrees (secondi), cheese, and dessert.
Paired with our exclusively Piemontese wine list, Alba Osteria brings the Piemontese dining experience to Portland.
