About this event

Công Tử Bột brings the spirit of a Vietnamese quán nhậu—part izakaya, part gastropub—to the heart of Portland, Maine. It’s the kind of spot made for snacking, sipping, and lingering, with a menu of vibrant small plates, natural wines, local beers, and creative cocktails. Think: bánh bèo (steamed rice cakes with shrimp, egg floss, fish sauce, and chicharrón), or “Mom Style” garlic fried rice topped with grilled pineapple and Maine red hot dogs—a nostalgic, riotous twist that somehow just works. The vibe? Low-lit and lush, with bright decor and a killer R&B playlist that shifts with the mood of the bar. Casual drinking and sharing has rarely felt this good.
