Revert[edit]
I reverted a poorly formatted attempt at expanding the article, but here's the text if anyone wants to make improvements based on the suggestions:
República is a Mexico-Forward restaurant by República & Co., Hospitality. The group is owned by Angel Medina & Chef Olivia Bartruff.
Founded in November, 2020, the establishment originally launched inside the Ectorust building in Portland's Pearl district. The restaurant started with one concept and quickly evolved into a number of offerings, starting with a Panaderia bakery (Matutina), followed by Platos Rotos, and later De Noche. The concept operated in this way for the initial 6 months until eventually it made the evening switch to a 5-course Chefs Tasting dinner.
In its first 13 months, the trio of Angel Medina, Chef Olivia Bartruff, and Chef Lauro Romero went on to earn a number of accolades and mentions. From a know famous LA Times write-up, to Restaurant of the Year by Portland Monthly, Best New Restaurant by Eater Portland, along with a James Beard Foundation nomination for Best New Restaurant in the Pacific Northwest.
To add to an already historic first year, in September of 2022, Bon Appetit magazine named República one of the 10 Best New Restaurants in America. In addition, the same national publication went on to shoot what would go on to become a viral and beloved video highlighting the work of the team at República, "A Day at Portland's Best Mexican Restaurant".
The group continued to expand, opening a number of new concepts and earning even more accolades along the way. In the fall of 2020, Comedor Lilia went on to open by Chef Juan Gomez (former Chef De Cuisine at República) quickly earning a mention in Esquire Magazine's Best New Restaurants in America. 10 months later the New York Times named Lilia one of the 50 Best New Restaurants[1] in the country.
In 2023, the group adopted the name República & Co., Hospitality as a way to make a statement on how different every existing concept was. A few months after that announcement, 2 of the groups Executive Chefs (Chef Jose Camarena of República & Chef Juan Gomez of Lilia) were named as "Portland's Rising Stars" by the renowned Star Chefs group.
