We have been faithfully serving food and booze in the Pearl for over 20 years, long before the boom of condos and apartments that is unfortunately pushing us out. In an online post, the restaurant's staff confirmed its last day would be May 14, 2017: 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. Robert Ames and James Puckett owned the building, as of 2016. Portland's first restaurant to serve wood-fired Italian pizzas, Perlina, opened in the building in 1992, and was replaced by Touché in 1995. This station was originally designed for horse-drawn apparatus and was remodeled later to accommodate mechanized fire equipment." In 1967, the station was sold and the building served as a warehouse and freight outlet.


According to the Historic Resource Inventory, the building was designed for Engine and Truck Company #3 and was "one of four stations of similar design erected on the west side, all designed by Battalion Chief Lee Holden, father of the gas-driven fire boat. The firehouse was listed on the City of Portland's Historic Resource Inventory for its 20th-century Italian Renaissance architecture and historic importance. The restaurant became known for its wood-fired pizzas and pasta entrees. It was housed in a former fire station, built in 1913, and located on a 5,000-square-foot lot at the intersection of Northwest 14th Avenue and Glisan Street. Touché was an Italian restaurant with an upstairs billiards hall, established in 1995 by Frank Ernandes.
