Gabriel Pascuzzi's Italian cocktail bar in Slabtown

Aperitivo hour is the move here, not dinner. Top Chef alum Gabriel Pascuzzi built Hey Luigi around that pre-dinner ritual first, then lets it slide into a full pasta and cocktail menu once night falls.

Portland got a wave of new Italian spots in 2025, but the cocktail-bar energy is what separates this one from the pack. Show up early if you want the room at its liveliest.

A friend and I went here for the first time and sat at the bar if there was availability. I would recommend booking a reservation if you would like a table as it is not open seating. The food and drinks were delicious.

My friend and I popped in here to grab a quick cocktail and to yappp. It was such a vibe inside and great sitting at the bar. Looking forward to popping back in when we are in Slabtown

First timers at Hey Luigi. I was very pleasantly surprised! The food hits, the atmosphere is vibey, and service was on point. Exact order I recommend, trust me: Burrata, cheese pizza (it’s better than what you think a normal cheese pizza is), pesto pasta with chicken, and a cocktail. Thanks to Natane, who gave excellent service, we will absolutely be back.

Modern cocktail bar/restaurant with unique takes on cocktails, small bites, and pasta. I would definitely come back again! My recommendation would be to focus more on the cocktails and small bites, and less of the traditional three course dinner. Their cocktails and small bites definitely standout with more unique flavor profiles. That's not to say their pastas or primi aren't delicious. Overall I'd give it 8.1/10.
