" What a gem! TIQA exceeded my expectations with an inviting setting and flavorful dishes. The highlight for me was the squid, which was tender and nicely grilled. Our server provided top-notch service as well, eager to share recommendations and insights into the menu. Will definitely return soon for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance is lovely at TIQA, and the outdoor seating is a great touch for warm evenings. Food was delightful with generous portions. Although the menu is a bit on the pricier side, you definitely get what you pay for here. I'd recommend the grilled octopus; it was beautifully seasoned! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at TIQA left me with mixed feelings. The food was delightful, especially the baklava, but the service seemed slow at times, which left us with little patience.

" Not sure what to say other than TIQA is absolutely brilliant! The staff is welcoming, and you can really tell they care about the customers. Our table shared a variety of dishes including falafel, lentil soup, and baklava for dessert. Each dish was better than the last, and everything tasted fresh, with rich and warming spices. A great culinary experience in Portland! " (*Curated Review*)

" TIQA charmed me from the get-go. The food was good but not exceptional. I had the falafel, which was quite flavorful, but I felt some dishes could use a touch more seasoning. The hands-on service made a difference though; the staff clearly wanted guests to enjoy their meals! Would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
