"Where can I find your Menus?"
This is one of the most common questions
we receive, and there isn't a simple answer.
For starters, República is a Chef's Tasting Dinner which consist of mostly original dishes which use components and techniques that are not very easy to explain. We can tell you that most of the food contains "corn, peppers, spices, and some form of animal protein" , but that doesn't tell you anything!
At Lilia, we proudly boast our "hyper-seasonal" menu, which means for the most part, its components change almost daily.
And De Noche, well, those offerings are a little more permanent but even then, many of the components are based on seasonality, especially the Mole del Dia, which changes daily.
Besides, even if said that x-dish contains "chiltepín, pepicha, xoconostle, and huitlacoche" we would only get flooded with messages back asking us "what are chiltepín, pepicha, xoconostle, and huitlacoche?".
It is way too complicated. Best thing we can suggest if you have concerns is that you make us aware of your dietary restrictions ahead of time. We promise we will do our best to accommodate you.
Large Parties
Republica cannot accommodate parties larger than 6 guests.
We are always happy to Host Buy-Out events with enough notice at any of our Establishments.
De Noche and Lilia have some flexibility on larger parties.
Our hours of operation are limited
We have but one phone number which we use to confirm upcoming reservations at all of our Establishments.
Please be patient if you cannot reach us day of, we are still too small to pay someone to answer phones.
The best way to reach is
by email: contact@republicapdx.com
Other random things
Some of our Restaurants have a built-in Hospitality Service Charge.
Please know that this allows us to pay our employees an equitable working wage.
Our food is sacred.
To us and to our employees.
For this reason, there are some dishes we are not able to modify.
That being said, we are always happy to accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies whenever we are able.
