"At pasta places, lots of people want meatballs, or carbonara, or alfredo. But I want to open the perspective that there's a bunch of different kinds of dishes."
"The gochujang ragu combines beef, pork, and tomato with spicy Korean pepper paste, while the ravioli are stuffed with fluffy ricotta."
"The perilla mushroom fresh fettuccine melds seasonal Oregon mushrooms, from chanterelles to cremini to porcini, with deeply umami mushroom stock, slow-cooked chicken stock, a little cream, and ground perilla seeds for a touch of nuttiness."
Nice Time serves a blend of Italian and Korean-influenced dishes using fresh pasta, making it unique in Portland. The menu features traditional Italian staples alongside innovative dishes like gochujang ragu ravioli and perilla mushroom pasta. The gochujang ragu combines beef, pork, and spicy Korean pepper paste, while the ravioli is filled with ricotta. The perilla mushroom fettuccine includes seasonal Oregon mushrooms and is enhanced with umami stock and ground perilla seeds. Nice Time has relocated to a new pod behind Steeplejack Brewing in 2025.
