There are plenty of places in Portland where we’d suggest you pay a lot of money for an incredible meal. Thankfully, there are also spots serving really good food and not charging the equivalent of a washer-dryer set, and Casa Zoraya is one of the best. This casual Peruvian spot serves creative takes on things like ceviche and lomo saltado that we like a lot, and the best way to keep the bill down is to come with a few people and split a bunch of dishes.
