Pasture PDX,[1] or simply Pasture,[2] is a butcher shop and delicatessen in Portland, Oregon's Alberta Arts District.[3][4] Kei Ohdera and HJ Schaible are co-owners. Pasture has garnered a positive reception and was named one of Portland's best new restaurants of 2022 by The Oregonian.

Description

Pasture operates on Alberta Street in northeast Portland's King neighborhood. It has been described as a whole animal butchery and restaurant.[5][6] The menu varies depending on the season and weather,[7] and has included roast beef sandwiches with cheddar, pastrami Reubens with carrot thousand island, and beef mortadella with pickled peppers.[8] The shop has sold curated boxes of goods.[9] Foods are sourced from Oregon farmers and ranchers.[10][11]

History

The business is owned by Kei Ohdera and HJ Schaible.[1] It initially operated as a pop-up restaurant,[12] including stints at Dame Collective in 2019[13] and the now-defunct Tails & Trotters in 2021.[14] Plans for Pasture to start operating from a brick and mortar location were announced in 2021.[15]

Reception

Pasture ranked seventh in The Oregonian's list of Portland's best new restaurants of 2022.[2] The newspaper's Michael Russell said the business was the city's best new sandwich shop.[16] Alex Frane and Janey Wong included Pasture in Eater Portland's 2023 list of nineteen "excellent" sandwich shops in the city.[17]
