I spent the weekend of the 22nd in the Portland area and some friends and I decided to try the NV House. I was acquainted with the owner, Joe, from previous restaurants and had always been impressed in the past. It was unfortunate to read a couple of the bad reviews, which thankfully I never take too seriously. Instead I trusted my instincts and gave it a try for dinner that Friday night. I order the stuffed halibut which was awsome. The service was wonderful, the wine was wonderful, as well as the dessert and port. We loved it so much, we all went back the next morning for breakfast. The smoked salmon eggs benedict & bloody mary were to die for. Obviously all restaurants can have a bad nights for a variety of reasons. I would hope that the writers of the "not so great" review would realize this and give it another chance. I'd recommend NV House to anyone! I wish Joe lots of luck with his place!!!
