Javelina Indigenous Dining, located in Portland’s Cully neighborhood, is the city’s first Indigenous restaurant, led by Chef Alexa Numkena-Anderson of the Yakama people of Washington and the Hopi of the Southwest. The menu blends Native tradition with modern culinary innovation, with house-made fry bread at its center—crispy, golden, and comforting, served in both classic and imaginative, seasonal forms. Guests will also find fire-roasted meats, wild and foraged ingredients, and artful plates that celebrate the depth and versatility of Indigenous cuisine while only sourcing ingredients & proteins from 'Turtle Island'. Surrounded by Indigenous artwork in a cozy, family-friendly setting, Javelina offers more than a meal—it’s a celebration of culture, creativity, and communityOne of Esquires Best New Restaurants of 2025 Walk-Ins Always Welcome!
