Ox (Portland restaurant) explained
Ox is an Argentine steakhouse in Portland, Oregon's Eliot neighborhood, in the United States.[1] [2] [3]
History
Greg and Gabrielle Denton opened Ox in 2012.[4] [5] [6] A "spillover space" called Whey Bar opened later in the year.[7]
In 2015, a ventilation malfunction filled Ox with smoke and forced an evacuation.[8] The restaurant released a cookbook in 2016.[9] [10] Ox began taking reservations in 2019.[11] Kurt Huffman owns at least a 20 percent stake in the restaurant, as of 2020.[12]
