Downstairs was a combined dining area and bar, and upstairs was a billiard hall with six tables,[1][2] as well as backgammon, darts and Lotto.

[3] It was housed in a former fire station, built in 1913, and located on a 5,000-square-foot lot at the intersection of 14th Avenue and Glisan Street in Northwest Portland's Pearl District.

[7] The appetizer menu included fried calamari with capers, chili flakes, garlic, parsley and fresh citrus juices.

Food such as pasta and desserts were served in the dining room upstairs; the downstairs lounge hosted jazz nightly.

[11] Sarasohn said of the restaurant: "For several years, Remo's has been one of Portland's foremost outlets of jazz Genoese, with nightly sessions downstairs in the lounge and more formal dining upstairs.

The renovation of a Portland firehouse, originally turned into Delevan's, is impressively done, missing only some wiring to permit the downstairs music to make it upstairs.

[5] In 2016, The Oregonian said the building's "interior is so altered, its original occupants wouldn't recognize the place if they arrived in its lobby by way of time travel, though they may be pleased to sit down and have a meal at the restaurant, Touché, which now fills the space".

[16] In April 2016, Touché's general manager confirmed a developer's plans to demolish the former firehouse, along with two neighboring restaurants, and construct a 12-story apartment building in its place.

"[3] In articles about the building's possible demolition, Eater Portland's Chad Walsh said Touché has "long been a service industry hangout where servers, bartenders, and line cooks would unwind after being on their feet all night ... thanks to its second-story billiards lounge".

[23][24] In 2017, the website's Mattie John Bamman wrote, "With Touché, Portland loses one of the more unique nightlife opportunities in the city: a robust Italian restaurant and bar with an expansive, second-story billiards room atop a spiral staircase.
