" Last week, I decided to take my wife to Gumba after hearing all the rave reviews. We were greeted warmly and seated promptly. For appetizers, we had calamari and burrata with fry bread which were phenomenal. However, the leg of lamb I ordered for the main course was overcooked and dry, which was disappointing given the other high-quality dishes. Overall, good vibes but I might be hesitant to revisit due to that. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, what an experience at Gumba! The priciest Italian dinner we've had but 100% worth it. The highlight definitely was their homemade pastas, particularly the pappardelle. The staff provided exceptional service, explaining dishes that intrigued us. The only drawback was the noise level - it was quite busy when we visited, so a bit hard to converse. I'll recommend booking a week in advance during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" We just had dinner at Gumba, and I was blown away! The fried chicken sandwich was one of the best I’ve ever tasted. My friend had the pasta with a rich short rib sauce that melted in the mouth. The staff were friendly and really accommodating. Will definitely come back to explore more of the menu next time we're in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gumba has quickly become my favorite Italian restaurant in Portland. The tagliatelle was cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with the duck confit. The drinks were just as impressive; I tried a delicious cherry cocktail that I'll be dreaming about for weeks. The only downside was the wait time, but the food was worth every minute. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" While visiting Portland, we stumbled upon Gumba. From the name, I expected the standard pasta but was pleasantly surprised by their unique twists on traditional dishes! The beef tartare was fresh, and the way they presented it made it even more appetizing. The staff was friendly and always made small talk while serving. I will be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a culinary gem in Portland! I visited Gumba twice in one week! The first time, I tried their signature carbonara, which was on par with what I had in Rome. The second visit was more relaxed, enjoying the outdoor patio while sampling the delightful wine selection. There is a lively atmosphere, and the staff's passion shines through each interaction. It left me eager to return for round three! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Gumba was an absolute delight! The ambiance was charming and cozy, making it the perfect spot for a family dinner. The homemade pasta was incredibly fresh and flavorful. I particularly enjoyed the squid ink spaghetti which was rich in taste. The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. Highly recommend the fry bread with burrata as a starter! " (*Curated Review*)
