Oro Fino, which translates to “fine gold,” is a speakeasy-style lounge built specifically for the Portland Trail Blazers Legends and Row AA clients. Launching at the Moda Center in 2018, Oro Fino features top-shelf liquors, craft cocktails, premium wines, and rotating appetizers. It also features museum-quality art from some of the most world-renowned abstract artists, including Lucinda Parker and Carl Morris, and nightly entertainment from local musicians. Oro Fino, which was designed to be hidden away from the crowd, has become the perfect space for those guests looking to relax in an intimate setting prior to the game. It’s the best kept secret in the arena.
The highlights of the space include the bar itself, which sports a burnt wood bar face accompanied by brass accents. The backdrop of the bar features a one-of-a-kind mural by nationally renowned artist Mark Licari that tells the story of a Portland time forgot. As guests step into a world of opulence and comfort, they are greeted by dark wood, warm brass custom-designed steel accents, and soft lighting. The entrance features wallpaper made of old newspapers, covered by dark paint, where one can only faintly read the headlines if they look closely. The side walls are lined with period-inspired, semi-circle booths with purple velvet upholstery.
