Three words: beer-battered burger. It's vegetarian, sure, but the decadence of the deep-fried Wilky's Comet ($8) still stuns. Sagittarius is part of the venerable Portland tradition of hippie comfort food, but meat lovers needn't worry, as forcefully attested by the beefy Astro Burger ($8, with prosciutto, mango and avocado) and bacon-wrapped meatloaf ($10). The non-sandwich food—greasy brewpub fries, spicy-creamy rosemary mac ($8)—is so cosseting it's womblike. You'd think it was designed specifically for the pot-munchied and hungover.
