When it first opened, the restaurant was open from 11 AM to 8 PM. A big opening party was held in October.
Inside the Restaurant
The inside of the restaurant is really cool. It has tall ceilings and skylights. You can see exposed wood everywhere. There's also a very long mural, about 50 feet! You'll find many island-themed decorations too.
A Second Location Opens
In October 2016, a second Ate-Oh-Ate opened. It's in southeast Portland. This new spot is in the Woodstock neighborhood. Benjamin Dyer opened it with David Kreifels and Jason Owens.
This second location is a bit smaller. It's about 600 square feet. It can seat up to 48 people. The menu there is also a little bit smaller.
