$20 Gift Certificate to Riyadh's Lebanese Restaurant
1318 SE Hawthorne Blvd , Portland, OR 97214

The dining area channels a Mediterranean villa, with painted columns, ochre-washed walls, and waves of blue-green chiffon rolling across an azure ceiling. SE locals and longtime regulars drop in for pan-Mediterranean delights, from shawarmas and gyros to grilled seafood dinners. Classic mezza samplers include hummus, baba ghanoush, tabbouleh, falafel, pita and specialties like stuffed grape leaves or fatayer, a savory ground beef turnover. Honey-drenched baklava and cardamom-scented rice pudding are made on-site.
