Michael Blank-Delaney: Try the Vegetarian Shepherd's Pie - Rutabagas parsnips turnips celeriac carrot onion celery crimini mushrooms with a sweet potato crust
Bin Yang: If in doubt, lamb sandwich is the way to go! Great PNW style beers but the real interesting stuff are the blended wild beers, sorta the bottled in house gueuzes - funky, tart, a lot of depth.
dj clint kuper: Awesome grilled cheese and chipotle tomato soup. Little pricey for the burgers and sandwiches. Good veg options and don't charge extra for a portobello or veggie patties.

Epicurious: You can dine on house-made primi and a board of dishes "from the garden" like carrots with quinoa, cashews, and honey vinegar or celery topped with almonds, dates, and parmigiano. Read more.
AD Nys: Can't decide? Get Chef's whim Tasting Menu. June highlights: 500 day aged prosciutto, beet watermelon salad, broccoli + pecorino fritti, sugar snap pea + mint chopped salad, lamb ragú, panama cotta.
Eater: Bartender Evan Zimmerman is behind the menu. The eight-item cocktail list features unexpected flavors like black truffle (in the "Lights Out") and campari seeped with cedar (in the "Pan-Am").

Sam Adams: How has this floating outdoor bar and restaurant escaped my notice until now!? Miguel our waiter and all the staff were wonderful. Happy options plentiful. The views of the Columbia River superb!!!
Michelle Brown: The Fish and Chips are ti die for...well seasoned. Great cocktails... I'd definitely return.
Heather Brown: The Reuben sandwich is to die for! It needs a little bit more sauerkraut though. Worthwhile if you're looking for a good sandwich.

Samantha: Great space, relaxed & cosy, lovely staff and delicious freshly made food! The pasta portions could do with being bigger per serve vs the price. I'd be happy to eat there again tho ☺️
Stephen Koch: Put your name in and then go over to June for a few cocktails. It's worth the wait.
Monty Williams: Best stuffed trout ever.

Vietnamese Restaurant · 22 tips and reviews
Andrea B (cyberetto): Try the Bánh Xèo, crispy fine crepe, stuffed with shrimp, pork, bean sprouts, rolling it up in fresh lettuce leaves with fresh mint. Read more.
GNTLMN: All their other Vietnamese dishes are very authentic as well. If you don't want to make the trek out there, they have a more upscale restaurant called Silk in the Pearl.
Alexandra Lane: Number 51 is the best, but definitely add an appetizer of salad rolls. They are so delicious with the peanut sauce!
