Such dreamy service and delicious food options !!

Love the unique selection, and the nothing-but-fantastic deli - but man, if money is not a problem it still is a hard pill to swallow how much you are going to pay for some of these items. Regardless, check out their excellent bakery items - I personally always get a good bit of focaccia, some fresh pasta - and a little fun candy to snack on later.

Well, Providore Fine Foods is a small market full of things that you really dont need, but you really, really want. That smoked salt you needed for that recipe you are planning on making once and then putting in cupboard for several years? Theyve got it! And will charge you all the market will bear.They also have wine in abundance, a small but complete selection of beers, a pretty swell meat and cheese counter, and a large assortment of anchovies! Thats right! You have choices!

Really can’t beat this place if you’re looking to buy something of exceptional quality. Great spot to re-up on peppercorn, balsamic, Olive oil and other similar goods. You get what you pay for here.

Great gourmet grocery store. Nice wine selections at varied price points. Wonderful produce and fish. Delicious fresh pasta and pasta sauces. Good selection of pantry items, chocolates, etc. And very nice, helpful staff!

My family and friends love Providore. We go here for speciality goods and veggies.Revel Meat is by far one of the best meet providers we’ve found. Expect HIGH quality and ethically processed meat. This is one of the few non factor farms you can find in PDX. I HIGHLY recommend their smoked pork chops. HOLY MOLY they are good.We also love Pasta Works. They offer truly exceptional fresh made pasta.Otherwise you will pay high prices for imported goods but that is OK! Your getting the best of the best here.Veggies are beautiful curated and very affordable.Lastly everyone that works here is just wonderful. Attentive well mannered and in good spirits. I find some chain grocery stores to be really bad vibes and Providore is just h the complete opposite. It’s a joy to shop here

Great shop with varied international (mostly European, and a few Asian) food pantry supplies. They also offer organic fresh veggies and fruits, a small bakery with fresh pastries and foccacia, cheese/meat counter, and seafood counter, and even fresh flowers... If I lived closer, this store would be dangerous as it can be a bit pricey for these high quality products.

For a special occasion, Providore is my go to spot. Great products and high quality meat, fish & veggies every day! Yes, items can be pricey but sometimes you just have to treat your guests to the best?

Stumbled upon this place while walking down the street and noticed something smelling great so we had to stop! This market is filled with many vendors and lunch was perfect here. Grabbed salmon poke and a sandwich. Cant wait to go back!

Delicious! Unmatched selections of meats and cheeses. Excellent bread as well. The staff is wonderful and beyond helpful!

A great place to get the highest quality ingredients for your home cooked Italian and domestic dishes. Able to explore new recipes with the well stocked local produce and store items. Very nice and helpful staff. A fun place to shop.

I highly recommend their cheese platter, it was amazing! Friendly service, and the items they have in store looked awesome too. Visit whenever you have the chance.

A fine selection of fresh produce, baked goods, and preserved delectables.

Wow!! Cant believe I received a reply from the owner for just rating this place. ☺What can I say? Providore is an awesome little grocery store full of rare finds and neat gifts. I especially love those single pieces of Italian candies - theyre tasty.Note for the owner: Thank you for your reply and your awesome idea! Even though Scooty McFloof is just my nickname - I may have consider making it my real one now. 🐱❤

Best grocery store in Portland for hard to find ingredients. Olive oil selection, spices and charcuterie are top notch.

All there food is amazing the rib eye steaks are the best ive had, and very freindly ppl that work there

Oh! The places theyve been and the foods they brought back! They have a great selection of high-end specialties from everywhere, their oils and vinegars start me drooling! Their extensive deli selections are top-notch and the bakery, dont get me started!!High-end foods from around the world, well-curated.

They have a lot of great and interesting stuff, but some of it is ridiculously expensive. Kewpie mayo for $10?!! Its less than $2 at a regular grocery store

Wish I lived closer. Yummy store

My faceprint is on the the glass at the cheese counter. Providore provides the good things we deserve.

Fine foods says it all - great stop for cookies and baked goods, meats, salads, and staples as well as a nice patio for coffee with a friend.

High-end selections of pasta, olive oil, anchovies .... salami, ham and cheeses, some fresh vegetables, baked goods and spices ... the average person will cringe at the prices but store had plenty of shoppers, even i purchased some spelt flour, olive oil and balsamic vinegar

Friendly staff. Excellent quality produce, meats, beead and cheese. Great wine selection. Staff more than happy to suggest their favorites

Called inquiring about a particular brand of Italian-made gluten-free pasta. The clerk took the time to go to the gluten-free isle, and described the two products they offered. That was great! When I asked specifically about the brand I was looking for, explaining I’d bought it on line and was wanting to find it locally, I was rudely (snappily) cut off mid-sentence and told that these are what they had, and I could find them there. Period. I was quite surprised by the curt and rude response to what was intended to be a way I might purchase through them, or find an equivalent. I was not afforded that opportunity. I quickly ended the call, saying that “it looks like you don’t want me as a customer, goodbye,” and hung up. Perhaps she was having a bad day. Who isn’t. But I’m disappointed by the treatment, and was hoping to visit this beautiful store and buy a variety of different items. I’ll look elsewhere for kind customer service. Hope her day improves.

Providore catered our wedding and did a tremendous job. We ordered a mix of sandwich trays, charcuterie, antipasti, and salad. Everything was absolutely delicious. Prices are very fair considering the quality of their food. Theresa was super easy to work with.

They have the best pasta selections!

This place is so dang cool. If you need any special, hard to find and high quality ingredients definitely go here. Its expensive but if you need something specific and fancy, its got your back.

I should not be allowed in here unsupervised! Id give them 5 stars but man, would it kill them to stock a few inexpensive items, just to give me a sense of accomplishment? Not that they arent worth the price, they are and if youre hunting something from fresh wild truffles to rose vermouth to ibérico, youll find it here and leave delighted, if poorer...

Very nice store. Wonderful gourmet products.

Great selection of cured meats, charcuterie, and cheeses. Wonderful staff as well.

Over priced, when I use my debit it suggests a tip. Really, I put my own items in my cart. A few unique things I like to get like the Crab Apple jelly that you cant find easily.

It would be dangerous to live closer to this magical store. Delightful, decadent, and wonderfully curated gourmet and everyday food items. The kind of store that makes you want to change your daily habits and live a better life. Wonderful wine selection, local items, fresh foods, cookbooks and more.

Finer selection, great cheese and meat section, local produce and meat, havent been in their wine section but it larger than most grocery stores

Id spend a LOT of money here if I could. Interesting and delicious groceries from all over the world (although mostly Europe-focused) plus bakery, cheeses, charcuterie, meats, prepared foods, seafood, fresh vegetables, and sweets! Plus a wine section! All of the highest quality.

Great for boutique, hard-to-find things like European snacks, salts, sauces, and brews. Local meat. Amazing cheese selection. Awesome staff.

The wine lady was super helpful, knew so much. The (who I believed to be manager) older lady was greeting people outside at the door and occasionally coming into the store to check on shoppers, she was extremely rude. Rushed us. Laughed with her co workers when I asked her to repeat what she’d said. I do have a southern accent as I’m not from here but their attitude quickly changed when they saw the amount of money I was spending. Very dissatisfied and disappointed as the selection of items in this store was amazing and over all just a super cute place.

Fine foods from across the globe, all in one place. Easy shopping and expert service makes for a delightful experience. If you’d prefer to avoid contact, order online and pickup the next day or have it delivered.My favorite item? Brooklyn’s Best Lox Nova ScotiaEnjoy!

Cool place. Lots of quality grocery we items.

Nice place if you wanna set your wallet on fire. I’m poor. Bye

I do shopping for a chef that feeds our office. She regularly tries new dishes and sometimes they require hard to find items. Providore Fine Foods have been a life-saver in this regard. They carry a wide selection of produce and other foods you generally cant find in a typical grocery store, for example sherry vinegar and more obscure spices. It is upscale, but the prices didnt seem ridiculous. Great place to shop for your cooks in the family. Overall I am impressed with the quality and the service. The employees have all been kind and helpful. Plus the have an interesting selection of candies and snacks. Definitely going back!

Excellent service and fantastic cheese selection.

Reluctant to share this spot lol: This place is like stepping into Europe and finding some of the best produce, flowers, wine, cheese, bread, meat, etc. youve ever had....the produce tastes like its supposed to ...the way food used to as a child. Yes, its a bit spendy in some cases but is worth it. Wish theyd start made to order sandwiches and specialty cakes/pies; theyd make a killing!

Quality ingredientsVery knowledgeable people

Ive had several sandwiches from here, all consistently incredible. I love this place so much. The flavors, authenticity, and price are all on point. So great to have discovered this spot.

Lunch here is wonderful. If you want to grab a bottle for your lunch. This should be your spot in Hollywood for alfresco dining.

Wonderful great Pasta Works, cheese, bread actually everything

Since March, I typically wear a particular neck scarf as a face covering. Ive worn it at all stores Ive attended, including Providore. I have a heart condition that makes it difficult to breathe through most masks Ive tried.After being there for over half an hour and ordering about $200 worth of cheese/meats/pickles, my daughter and I were told to wait outside in the rain while they finished packaging my order after I refused to change my face covering to a medical mask. My daughter even tried telling him I cant breathe with those masks, and he shrugged and said, Yeah, its hard. I waited outside patiently and he told me to come back in when I was gesturing to give him my card to run inside. I thought I wasnt allowed in the store? It was super confusing. He started yelling at me from inside the store about how hes just trying to help me get this done. The man made a spectacle out of me in front of the staff and other customers (two days before Thanksgiving, so it was busy). I got in my car and cried. Embarrassing, but thats how hurt and bewildered I was.I dont typically review places, but I was so disappointed by how I was treated this evening that I am hoping my review will discourage this worker from treating others this way. 2 stars instead of 1 because I love the products and most of the people are usually so nice to us. Genuinely saddened by tonight and likely will never return. Ill stick to Zupans, thanks. Theyre a bit more gracious.

Great selections of fine food its spendy .PARKING sucks

The arrosto rotisserie chicken sandwich is phenomenal

One of the best citations of international artisan food goods I’ve ever come across. The house made focaccia is tasty and they have Little T baker breads!

I love this store! Dangerously lovely (and expensive) but certainly worth it if you want to spend $100 and feel like a beautiful Parisian version of yourself.

Not only is this company known for abusing women but we can add homophobia to the list. My partner arrived outside and waited in line to get in. Providor (rightfully) only allows a certain number of people into the store at a time as a covid precaution. That means theres usually a line outside and that groups larger than two arent allowed in together.Today though, my partner and I were in line, and when it came time for us to go in the employee outside stated only one of us could go in at a time. Okay sure, there werent any other couples in line ahead of us so we figured maybe because of the snow theyre splitting up all couples to get the line moving faster. Nope. While I was shopping I saw the employee manning the door allow two straight couples inside and break up another (presumably) lesbian couple at the door.I urge anyone considering shopping there to check out @86dlistpdx on Instagram for accounts of the workplace abuses women endure in addition to the homophobic policies they institute at the door.

Great selection of quality groceries.

Very nice fine foods grocery store.

Best deli in the Portland/Vancouver area.

Excellent seafood, bread, and deli counters. Great selection of local meats and packaged foods too. Pretty cool place.

Tried this on the recommendation of a friend. The Pork pie is served cold. GROSS!

Great selection! Unfortunately the service is a bit inconsistent. Two examples:1) While in line to enter the building, my partner and I were asked to sanitize our hands while the gentleman in front of us was whisked in without a word.2) I like chocolate, so I put it down on the cashier’s counter and watched it get scanned. Get home, open bag. No chocolate. Where chocolate go?

This is an amazing Fine Foods spot in NE PDX. They have a wonderful selection, and lots of exciting surprises. I stopped in for fresh pasta and left with a bag full of goodies!The staff is SUPER friendly and helpful. Make sure you stop in. I will be making this a regular haunt.

Great selection of products, good customer support by helpful, knowledgable staff.

Get your Vichy Catalan water here!

We had a wonderful dinner at Flying Fish last night! Their ceviche was the best Ive ever had and the oysters were sublime! Well definitely be going back.

You can always find the most interesting things st this store. I love their fresh baked focaccia, spice selection, and cheeses.

Wonderful selection of authentic Italian salamis, mortedella, prosciutto and the best selection of cow, sheep and goat cheese. Fresh fruits ND vegies. Everything you need for entertaining.

Online order with curbside/parking lot pick-up was fast and without any issues! Of course, the grub was good, too!

Excellent food. Dont go if you need to ask the price.

Theres no place in Portland with a better cheese selection than here. Its really the fine monger for everything European and some local takes on traditional European delicacies as well.

This is a nice place to find unique foods; but i was treated like i stunk by the cashier. They were nice with the white family before me. But the cashier make me uncomfortable were rushing me to leave even though i purchased a lot of expensive products. I will not return back! Bad customer service!# 😡😠

Incredible selection of food and cooking ingredients

The best of everything here!

Lots of Italian specialties. Great fresh focaccia and good house made marina sauce. High quality pastas including house made ravioli. The prepared vegetarian lasagne was a tasty dinner entree. There arent any individual desserts, but they do have tiramisu available as several servings. The fresh flowers were quite spendy and did not hold up well. Not inexpensive but overall worthwhile.

Fantastic place. I picked up chestnuts for my Thanksgiving dressing and checked out the holiday treats.

Bought fresh fruit and rubinette salad. Staff friendly

In my dream world I exclusively shop here and Zupan’s. They have a wonderful little deli section that has great options for you to eat on site. Plus I love their chicken restaurant. They also always have the most interesting fruits. Ever since City Market closed on the west side I’ve been making trips over here to get the best little treats.The only thing is I wish they would do more events! Maybe cooking classes or cheese tastings. That would be great!

Not only is this a great place for getting exotic CANDY, but theyve begun letting folks call or email ahead so they can get groceries together for you to quickly pick up. They are doing an awesome job with their social distancing measures and I hope they can stay open so I can keep getting their excellent fresh produce throughout the work from home days...

Great place for esoteric shopping and cooking needs

Fantastic up-market supermarket - great selection of wines, cheese, meat, fish and all the things you need to make a truly great meal for your loved one

Great customer service

Clean Enviroment!Delightful Staff!

Staff were wonderful.

Incredible selection of really unique cheeses. Shopping there reminded me of going to the candy store when I was a kid. I have found my adult candy store.

I spend too much money here.On good thingsBut now Im broke

Quality cannot be better. From the fresh oyster bar, to the exceptional selection of charcuterie and cheese from around the world. Absolutely fresh fish selection that changes daily. A must stop when only the finest will do. Quality is worth the cost always.

Im a regular who considers this place a second home. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and absolutely everything in this market is delicious and beautiful. Also? Best oysters in Portland. PERIOD!

Beautiful experience in a European like market selling great products. I especially appreciate the vendors who highlight fresh local foods, like Flying Fish. A wonderful place to take guests for lunch, sitting at the fish counter shooting PNW oysters and drinking local wine.

Best boutique grocery store in town. Come here if youre looking for something special, whether its cheese, meat, wine, or anything else Italian.

Friendly and knowledgeable team, great selection of cheeses and deli meats. they proactively offer samples and recommendations to ensure you get something you will enjoy. Oyster bar the same - enthusiastic personable staff who gives great info on the available options.

The best of high end grocery shopping!

Staying in Portland and was out looking for food and drink. Stumbled on this place and was nicely surprised. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. A terrific selection of cheeses and meats and the staff will offer you samples and recommendations to ensure you get something you will enjoy. Purchased two Real Budweiser beers from the Czech Republic, Genoa hot salami, cured meats and a focaccia special to go. I had a feast when I got back to my room. Worth another visit when in Portland.

Great speciality shop! Id be here more if it were closer.

If youre looking for specialty grocery items, imported, gourmet, and regional delicacies, youll find them here.

Wow. Just wow.What amazing, gourmet European food or beverage do you desire? Yeah, theyve got that.Fresh bread? Meat? Fish? Yep.Cured meats? Salads and pastas? Wide selection of oysters on the half shell? You bet.Wine, beer, cider, etc.Its a densely packed wonderland of gourmet deliciousness. You can eat there or take things home to cook later. You are a fool if you miss it.

Most incredible owner and staff! Couldn’t ask for better folks!

Very expensive but I suppose exclusive items

Went to find Flying Fish Company, and discovered a wonderful specialty market with experts on hand to offer tips and answer questions.Go to Providore Fine Foods for beautiful produce featuring heirloom and organic varieties — an incredible selection of hard-to-find pantry items from nearby and around the world — the lovliest-ever flower bouquets — surprising refrigerated items from local fine food companies — and much, more.Given more time, I would have had a bite at the deli with on-site seating, explored the cheese case, and chosen a pastry to take home. Flying Fish Company also has a companion meat counter with specialty items I dont normally see.My delightful visit ended with a few more purchases than I came for — most of them things on my grocery wish list. Ill be back!

I love this place!!

Great food and great folks

Great service!!!:)

A truly decadent experience! One of the few Italian grocers in Portland that you can trust to sell the finest of Italian cuisine!

Bought a corked bottle of wine here and tried emailing and sending a fb message and have heard nothing. Will not return.
