Our Story
Founded by Chef Michael Rodriguez after 15 years at Michelin-starred restaurants, Main Street Bistro blends culinary expertise with family recipes passed down through three generations. Our commitment to local sourcing means we partner with 12 farms within 50 miles of Portland.
Our community-focused approach has earned us "Best New Restaurant 2022" by Portland Monthly, but we're most proud of the relationships we've built with our guests and neighbors.
