Lazy Susan is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.[1]

Description and history

Interior, 2022

Lazy Susan is a restaurant in the southeast Portland part of the Montavilla neighborhood. The restaurant opened in early 2020, weeks before the COVID-19 pandemic's arrival, in the space which previously housed The Country Cat.[2][3] According to Brooke Jackson-Glidden and Alex Frane of Eater Portland, "when COVID-19 hit, the team pivoted into something closer to a backyard cookout, with grilled meats, potato salad, and seasonal vegetable sides".[4] The menu has included oysters, morels, prawns, and short ribs.[5] Lazy Susan also serves slushies, described by Frane and Michelle Lopez of Eater Portland as "generally goofy, fun, and incredibly well-balanced, using unusual twists to temper sweetness".[6] The restaurant's seating capacity is approximately 64.[7]

For Thanksgiving in 2021, the restaurant's special dinner menu included turkey pot pie, mashed potatoes with wild mushroom gravy, squash, chicory salad, and crackers with whitefish spread, butterscotch pumpkin pie, and select wines by the bottle.[8] The Hanukkah menu included wild mushroom matzah ball soup, sufganiyah, beef-tallow-fried hash browns, bialys, whitefish spread, and king salmon gravlax.[9]
