Ryan Walker
Shop Manager and Pizza Perfectionist
Ryan was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. He grew up in an industry family that prioritized eating quality ingredients. Spending his early 20’s navigating positions in both the front and back of house, he spent 4-5 years working in the Micah Camden corporation at little big burger, boxer ramen, and boxer sushi, finally settling in the kitchen side of the business.
After that he made his way to Bethany’s Table to join the family business, as he is also the owner - Janet’s - middle child.
Ryan has spent the last few years becoming an integral part of the Bethany’s Table kitchen staff and continues to be the lead producer of all of their pasta and bread. If you’ve eaten pasta at Bethany’s Table any time in the last 5 years, you’ve eaten some of Ryan’s pasta! He is an artist at heart, which makes him the perfect person to manage Radii Pi.

Owners
Radii Pi is the brainchild of David Bowles and Chef Janet O’Connor, owners of Bethany’s Table. Bethany’s Table has established itself as the premium farm-to-table restaurant on the West Side of Portland. Located north of Highway 26 with a Portland address in unincorporated Washington County, Bethany’s Table caters to a large contingent of well-traveled expert diners that have become regular customers.
After consulting with their customers and completing an extensive strategic analysis it was determined that the missing ingredient in the neighborhood was pizza. Radii Pi was born.
Relying on Janet’s expertise and her son Ryan’s gift with bread and pasta making, a top of the line ceramic dome pizza oven was purchased. Deciding on Neapolitan-style pizza with its thin crust and emphasis on fresh sauce and premium toppings, Radii Pi is committed itself to compete with the best shops in this pizza-laden city.
For over fifteen years Janet and David have been serving fine cuisine to thousands of regular customers who count Bethany’s Table as their “hidden gem.”
Now Bethany’s Table brings Radii Pi to the neighborhood. Janet and Ryan are working together to create a reputation for the best pizza in Portland. Wish them luck!
