The concept seems to be quite ambitious for Portland, a city where the small focused restaurant like Sel Gris, Le Pigeon or Beast seems to be preferred. That said, Lucier is well located within easy distance from the growing numbers of well paid doctors and staff of OHSU who make the south waterfront their home. Their stated goal is to become a destination restaurant for special events. I think there is room in Portland for a well marketed (and hopefully well received) destination restaurant.
