Description and history

Quaintrelle was a New American [2] restaurant on Clinton Street in southeast Portland's Hosford-Abernethy neighborhood. The restaurant was established in 2016, [3] originally operating on Mississippi Avenue in the north Portland part of the Boise neighborhood before relocating in 2021. [4]

Ryley Eckersley was a chef. [5] The restaurant's seating capacity was approximately 65 (20 indoors and 45 outdoors). [6] Willamette Week has described Quaintrelle as a "whimsical" fine dining restaurant. [7]

In 2023, Naomi Pomeroy became a consultant for Quaintrelle. [8] In December 2024, the restaurant announced plans to close permanently on January 1, 2025, after New Year's Eve dinner and celebrations. [9] [3] [10] [11] Michael Russell included Quaintrelle in The Oregonian 's list of the 21 "most painful" restaurant and bar closures of 2024. [12]

Quaintrelle was replaced by the restaurant 82 Acres. [13]
