I had dinner there for the first time last night and was completely blown away by it all. Every dish was beautiful to look at, and heaven to smell and taste. Good service, and not inexpensive, but worth every penny paid. I am looking forward to coming back for dinners and brunches in the very near future.

Lion and Owl is a great spot for a healthy outdoor lunch with a menu that features delicious dishes like the portobello sandwich with sliced mushroom, pesto, and goat cheese. The salmon is noted as the best many have ever had, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to flavorful food. Be sure to make a reservation, as it can get busy. The open-faced omelette with Morales is a must-try, and the fish sandwich is also a hit. The restaurant has a charming and cozy ambiance, complemented by the fantastic and accommodating service. Guests find the decor very cute, contributing to the enjoyable atmosphere.
The food quality remains good, offering a variety of flavorful options, including baked eggs served with crispy, buttery brioche toast for dipping and savory macarons or miso banana bread for dessert. The breakfast sando has been highlighted as a standout dish. Although the portions can be small for the price, thoughtful touches like a magnifying glass to read the menu and a handmade birthday card show the care taken by the staff. Guests appreciate the elegant atmosphere, especially in the lounge area, making it a nice place to visit. While the food can be a bit pricey, the experience at Lion and Owl is enjoyable, ensuring it remains a highly recommended dining experience in Eugene.
