History
Chef Vallery Markel opened the restaurant in 2014,[2] in a two-room space which previously housed a Mexican restaurant.[4] Willamette Week's Martin Cizmar said of the interior and atmorsphere: "The dimly lit East Glisan is indeed a lounge. Roughly half the seating is bar stools or couches, and the front sidewalk is home to a fleet of those rugged wooden picnic tables where smokers huddle outside Portland dive bars. It's all '90s classics on the radio: early Wilco and Liz Phair, midcareer Whitney Houston and Tina Turner."[5]
For Pizza Week in 2014, Markel and Adam Sappington, the chef and owner of The Country Cat, collaborated with Markel to create the 'Country Cat Pizza'. The balsamic-braised bacon pizza, available for one week, had roasted butternut squash puree, goat cheese, and arugula.[6]
Detroit-style pizza was added to the menu in 2016.[3] Kristen Martha Brown is the owner, as of 2017.[7]
