We couldn’t do what we love without our audience, so here’s a little something extra for your weekend — from how you can help fill our cup to how we’re filling yours with our feature on new + coming soon restaurants around Portland.
☕ Local media runs on you
We receive hundreds of thank you notes and kind messages every week. | Gif by 6AM City
Each day, we write the PDXtoday newsletter with one goal: to help you better connect with your community. And each day, our friends across the US, from Seattle to Tampa Bay, do the same.
Here at 6AM City, we know the value of investing in local media. It keeps neighbors connected and the community informed. We’re invested in improving how you experience Portland, like what events to attend + the latest city initiatives and developments to keep an eye on — all in our free newsletter. How is that sustainable, you might ask?
We partner with national brands and some of Portland’s best organizations + businesses that support our mission of bringing only good news to your inbox, but efforts don’t stop there. Over the next six days, we’re running a reader-driven campaign to help sustain the continuation of what we do best.
Maintaining our credibility + trust | Fun fact: Our company has turned down more than a million dollars in political ads since we started
If PDXtoday has had a meaningful impact on the way you live life in Portland, like it has for us, we’d love to have your support. Think of it as buying us a coffee to help keep the good news coming.

Looking for the next new restaurant hitting the Rose City’s food scene? Check out these buzzy places to eat and drink in Portland — plus, one spot coming soon.
Andiamo Pizzeria, 672 S. Gaines St. #1 | Pizza
This brand new South Waterfront restaurant serves up wood fired pizza with a global twist: flavors are pulled from destinations including Italy, India, Pakistan, and Thailand. We can’t wait to try the Pakistano, which features garlic cream sauce, tandoori chicken, cilantro, peppers, and a sriracha glaze.
Pamana, 15 NW 4th Ave. | Filipino
The founders of Baon Kainan — which won Eater Portland’s Best New Cart award in 2021 — opened this spot earlier this fall inside Old Town’s Hoxton hotel. The residency is only open for six months, so hurry if you want to try dishes like these. Madrina Cocina Mexicana, 1235 SW Jefferson St. | Mexican
This new downtown spot from Lusdivina De Leon, whose family opened northeast Portland’s Tortilleria y Tienda De Leon’s, is a tribute to Latina women. Menu items include elote asado, quesabirria, and a range of tacos.
James Beard Public Market, SW 6th Street and SW Alder Street | Food hall | Projected opening: Summer 2026
The new market — named in honor of the Portland-born cooking school founder — will “showcase Oregon’s agricultural bounty.” Expect to make it your next go-to spot to shop for produce, fish, cheese, meat, and other foods + beverages.
