"Portland's most adventurous kitchen."

The Willamette Week

 

"Modern Art."

Karen Brooks, Portland Monthly

 

"A must visit for those who view the dining experience through a progressive lens."

Opinionated About Dining

 

"Among reader nominations, the complex desserts by Castagna's Justin Woodward and Eve Kutteman emerged the clear favorite, with designations like 'most original' and 'three-star Michelin worthy.'"

Eater PDX

 

"Woodward earned his pastry stripes at Manhattan’s modernist food lab WD-50, and it pays off in the complex techniques and conceptual excitement largely missing from Portland’s other dessert menus."

Portland Monthly Magazine

​

"Chef Justin Woodward offers surprises, risks and that rarest of qualities in this city: elegance."
