Restaurants in Lake Oswego

“Aside from the great tasting ice cream, Salt & Straw has the most eclectic flavors of ice cream that include pear & blue cheese as well as honey lavender however they have most of the classic flavors as well. The staff are very willing to let you try whatever flavors you want and encourage you to try everything.

I settled on a waffle cone with chocolate gooey brownie and it was fabulous! I tried the pear & blue cheese and the hazelnut cookies and cream. The flavor of blue cheese dominated and lingered. I love blue cheese and it was a nice experience to see how that was made into ice cream.”

“If you are looking for a high tea experience look no further! The staff and owner are attentive and accommodating. The food and tea absolutely exquisite. Please come visit this wonderful business!”

“I posted these pics after my first visit 11 months ago. I drive Limousines for JMI located in Beaverton. I make it a point to eat at local places while im in that town. I only go to places with more than 4.5 stars. TLM didnt disappoint! I am hoping my original post and pictures viewed more than 60,000 times brought more business”

“10 stars! One of my absolute favorite restaurants the food is fabulous. Every time we are in Lake Oswego we stop for breakfast or lunch.”

“Such a special, cozy spot. Classic fair. Friendly staff. Took me too long to find the underground hangout. Nice respite from the louder and warmer upstairs. Found a nice little nook to relax. Thanks all!”

“Always take such great care of us! Were wonderful in taking care of our industry tastings and our guests loved everything. All wines were wonderful, tasty food and amazing server.”

“Highly recommend this place!!”

“My dad lives in the area and has been raving about this pizza. Came up to visit and he took us to dinner last night 6-21-23. Got the pepperoni and the spicy sausage. OMG…. Gotta say one of the best wood fired pizza I’ve ever had in the PDX area. I think this will be our go to when in the area. Jackson was an amazing host and gave great recommendations and was fantastic as well. We will see y’all again!”

“The kolaches were extraordinary. Huge variety of selections, too. Wonderful location, and the customer service went beyond my expectations. Cannot wait to return!”

“Our waiteress was a little young - not as professional and kinda distracted as she had to be reminded often. . But the staff and hostess were gracious. Food delicious and hot. Lots of parking and conveniently located on Lower Boones.”

“We loved Tada Sushi! Clean and elegant! All the food was amazing and we will go back for more 💞”

“Unfortunately my husband found a piece of wire from the BBQ brush in his chicken. They were extremely apologetic and took the entree off our bill, and everything was fine. Food was superb otherwise.”

“this company is exceptional!
I want to give a big shout out to Gabriela who contacted me after I received my meals via delivery to check in and make sure everything went well.
What can I say, the food is amazing, the shopping experience was easy and quick and the fact that they deliver is the cherry on top of the sundae :-) I am visually impaired so the fact that they deliver really helped my husband and myself.
Thank you for being a company that stands behind your product and cares about customer service :-)”

“Real Thai food real quick.”

“Fantastic products in a dedicated GF facility and knowledge pertaining to other allergies. We love Kara's!”

“I have been at Riccardo's twice for lunch in the pass month. The food, and service are superb. I wanted to tell Riccardo in person what a wonderful Ristorante that he has, but he had already left. Thank you.”

“Five Spice Seafood + Wine Bar in Lake Oswego is one of those restaurants that makes you appreciate living in this area. The food is fantastic, especially if you love fresh seafood and unique Pacific Northwest flavors. Everything we tried was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and the wine selection pairs perfectly with the menu.

The atmosphere is warm, elegant, and relaxed, making it a great spot for date night, celebrating with friends, or just enjoying a nice evening out. If you can sit near the lake, it makes the experience even better. The staff was welcoming and attentive, which always makes a big difference.

As a local real estate agent who spends a lot of time helping buyers explore homes in Lake Oswego and West Linn, I’m always looking for great local places to recommend. Five Spice is definitely one of those restaurants I suggest to clients who are getting to know the neighborhood. It really shows off the charm and lifestyle that makes the Lake Oswego and West Linn area such a wonderful place to live.

Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Lake Oswego or exploring the West Linn area and want a great meal and a beautiful local dining experience.”

“wine, service, wine, atmosphere”

“Hoki poki is the best along with the Wagyu burger”

“The whole experience was incredible! Our server was amazing and the staff was very accommodating to our family even with one of our little ones working towards being a distraction. I would definitely recommend this location!”

“Always a great time and a beautiful meal at Beso. The service is friendly and the food is quality. Such a warm and comfortable environment.”

“if you want to get a good food and quick service this the place to visit.”

“This place is the best. I got the cookies and cream coconut shake. Nothing short of amazing. My husband, son, and myself gobbled up the chicken and fries we got. Everyone needs to run not walk to get some of this awesome food.”

“Tucci has a vast menu with options galore and reasonable prices. The service has always been excellent. They have a policy of no corkage fee so bring a bottle of wine with you! The only downside is the restaurant can be quite noisy, so be aware.”

“Love the Tacos and vibe!!”

“My husband and I were disappointed by the restaurant a couple of times over the past three years. While we were exploring and looking for something new to do, we came across Mann’s and noticed that it had new management so we gave it a try. I just had to share how pleased we were with the new interior, friendly and professional staff, and excellent food. I am well travelled, but this clam chowder was the best I have ever tasted. I’m probably going to wish I didn’t post this review - adding to the reservation waiting list will interfere with our spontaneity, but it was just that good. I hope this restaurant becomes the fixture in Lake Oswego that it was always meant to be. Well done!”

“Hunan Pearl is a delightful restaurant that has become our favorite spot for Chinese cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff truly makes you feel at home. The owners and team are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that every guest feels valued.

The food is great! They offer a diverse menu filled with authentic dishes that are delicious.

If you're looking for a place that offers great food in a welcoming environment, I highly recommend Hunan Pearl. It's a hidden gem that's definitely worth a visit!

Better yet, they offer gluten free alternatives for most of the menu selections which is a blessing for someone with celiac like myself and nearly unheard of at Chinese restaurants.”

“Love love love Tabern! Food and drinks are great!”

“I stopped at a great little place and had a large French Roast coffee and a breakfast sandwich ham egg and cheese on a fresh croissant. 2 min and I was enjoying a great sandwich at a great value. I met Joo and he was very friendly. They are pet friendly with free dog treats. Enjoy staying and eat inside or sit outside below large very impressive trees that I am sorry I can’t tell you the species.
Anyway stop by and enjoy a quick bite and coffee. He also has an espresso machine to make anything to rival a Starbucks but at much better price point.”

“Someone took takeout packaging to the next level! We ordered near closing time, and our box was hand-labeled with the sweetest little doodles. Such a thoughtful, personal touch that made us smile. The food was delicious too. Thank you!”

“Tried the seasonal eggnog cake. If tiramisu met a white sheet cake at the holiday party and got sloppy together - it would be this cake. The moisture and flavor of the eggnog soaked the cake from the bottom up. The creamy icing on top sprinkled with nutmeg brought home the tiramisu vibe. Pretty good effort at a fancy cake by a cookie company.”

“Wonderful Santa Fe Chicken and Bean soup! Highly recommended.”

“Wow - friendly staff, large portions, tasty tasty entrees❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‼️”

“Just moved to Oregon and tried some coffee and one of the pastries and it was absolutely delicious. I absolutely recommend this place, Maddie was very nice and helpful with helping me pick out something to eat as I have never heard of the place before. I will definitely be here regularly.”

“Classic milk tea with pudding🔥”

“Umm... I wanted to rave on and on about the pizza, then the pork meatballs, then the Spag (with meatballs)..but something else struck me that is even more important. Some place finally, THIS PLACE knows how to do wings on the west coast! How did it take this long? Oh my God! I took my chances and those are the wings I've been waiting for. Very impressed!”

“Best machiato coffee in town, served in a nice cup with a smile! A very welcoming and cheerful ambiance, right in the heart of downtown Lake Oswego..”

“Thank you so much for giving some of your proceeds back to the LOSD PE program! I appreciate your commitment to the community! This location is always apples with my orders, super friendly and has great deals.”

“Always a great brewery and a nice spot down town to pop in for a beer and a pretzel. IPAs are their Forte. I had the vienna lager which is great albeit a hoppy vienna. They just won 2 more medals at GABF this year so pop in for a pint or 3. They medaled on the breakside IPA so grab a pour.”

“Wonderful downtown LO! Friendly Clean Great ☕️”

“How long has this little gem been hiding here? The food was delicious (take out). I can’t wait to try a bunch of other items on the menu. My husband said it looked like a nice place for a casual dinner too.”

“Located inside Niki's cafe inside a business building. Made fresh to order, we tried the bulgogi, ham, and mushroom and avocado ones and they were all delicious, especially the mushroom and avocado one. Waaaay better than Hmart. Great portion sizes for the price too.”

“If you like to Touch things. Lots of meat options, the menu was kind of confusing. Especially if you wanted to get one of their daily deals, after picking the daily deal sandwich. They would tell us after we picked it. Okay, what sandwich would you want, and we said the daily deal one we just said that, and he goes yes but then you can pick anyone you want. So that was nice. Just confusing.”

“Cozy spot to eat”

“Probably the best sushi EVER!!!! Rolls are massive.”

“Awesome staff service location coffee ☕️”

“Food was good and reasonably priced and they had a great selection of beer and wine and great service all in all it was a great experience”

“Had a great pizza yesterday! But a male worker with a mask smelled really bad, like he hadn’t showered in weeks. Had to go home to finish this Pizza but man was it goooood”

“this place USED to be great, when the owners cared about their staff and customers. they now no longer care. I realized this after being electrocuted due to the owners not wanting to hire electricians and plumbers to do the work needed. the company stopped really truly caring about their staff when they moved to this location. all staff is expected to be on call every day for any shift, while being paid the minimum wage and no wage for staying on call. it also was a realization that they didn't care when I was expected to pump breastmilk for my newborn in an area that was not private and was in view of customers when I did need to pump. no employee is relieved of duty for a break and often times expected to work 10+ hours, and not always knowing I'd relief would show up. yes they used to be a good place, they no longer are. oh and the tacos are not made to health standards....while they are safe we were told to use a slow cooker and not tell health authorities how we cooked the meat.”

“Water served in repurposed wine glasses, Chandon mimosas for the whole table, the best Oregonian salmon Benedict on the west coast!? This place is the real deal.. def consider a stop for brunch if you’re in the Portland area!”

“Delicious! BUT they need more people working here on Sat/Sun. The two gals are doing their best, but it’s insanely busy. They are literally 20+ people waiting for their orders. The owner needs to properly staff for busy weekends. 3 -4 employees are needed.”

“Delicious 😋, fresh, clean, good service👍 Will be back from Vancouver, WA.”

“Fantastic little coffee and wine shop, limited food options but good sandwiches and pastries. The staff and incredibly kind and always welcoming.

Kid-friendliness: Kid and dog friendly!”

“so far so good right next to the motel”

“Such great wraps and sandwiches! This has become my go-to spot for picking up lunch. This is a tiny little kiosque-style cafe in the middle of a large office building. The service is excellent! They have always been efficient and prompt. Highly recommend.”

“The best Thai food you will ever eat 😆❤️”

“Excellent, as always!”

“The food is better than average for a bar but what I really love is the bartenders and the freindly atmosphere.”

“Great coffee and amazing scones!”

“The Thai food is great!!! We got an opportunity to try the food at the soft opening. We left with full tummy’s and will be back for more!!”

“Nice place to hangout. Good drinks.”

“Consistently great food, good prices, good portions, and friendly faces.

Don't sleep on the sandwiches. They are made with just the right proportion of ingredients and some sort of secret sauce that ties everything together. Great sandwiches.”

“Friendly service and great food.”

“this is truly the best Baja fresh ever. the manager, the team, the food, the service, the way i can depend on them ANYTIME for my catering.....and their new breakfast is amazing too!”

“Great neighborhood bar, great food”

“This is honestly the best teriyaki I’ve had since moving from Hawaii. The gyoza is amazing. The restaurant is peaceful. I highly recommend this place to eat! Also reasonably priced”

“Great coffee and amazing scones!”

“Friendly atmosphere food is always good service is prompt. Has a Cheers type feel.”

“Every single time I've been here, the staff have been sweet. They go above and beyond, and they have always had a smile on their faces. The only thing sad is they no longer carry an item my client likes, but that's because the company no longer makes it”

“Haven’t been to this location for a while. Zana made my pizza, and Matthew cooked the pizza. They both did an amazing job. My pizza was prepared very well, the placement of the toppings were aesthetically pleasing. Matthew cooked the pizza really well, it was nice and crispy but and not like a crunchy chip crust like most of the mod pizzas I’ve been to. Great job team!”

“Excellent service by friendly staff. Great for kids parties. Adults also The Pizza is the main reason I go to Deno's though. All I can do, is suggest you try one, If you don't find it one of the best pizza restaurants around, I guess we'll just have to disagree.”

“The staff here completely made my day with their amazing attitudes and wonderful conversation. Kindness goes a long way and I truly appreciated the experience 🩷”

“Centerpoint is the best Starbucks around, the Team is friendly, smiling, makes you feel welcomed”

“I have been at Riccardo's twice for lunch in the pass month. The food, and service are superb. I wanted to tell Riccardo in person what a wonderful Ristorante that he has, but he had already left. Thank you.”

“Just come in today for some food. It was amazing, service was great and food was amazing!”

“Love love love Tabern! Food and drinks are great!”

“I got food to go through the drive-thru and it was good customer service however I feel like the cheeseburgers have changed they're not the same as they used to be which is sad but it's still one of the best places to get a quick Burger in a milkshakes are great too The Sundays are the best the Oregon strawberry you can't lose with that choice”

“Friendly service and great food.”

“Tried the seasonal eggnog cake. If tiramisu met a white sheet cake at the holiday party and got sloppy together - it would be this cake.

“Chipotle has really great food, at a super good price. My girl and I just order one honey chicken bowl with 2 side tortillas and that is a very good meal for both of us ...Hands down beat deal considering how expensive it is to eat quality food”

“Birthday lunch with friends. We shared 3 dishes, Lemon Chicken, shrimp fried rice, and chicken pate They were all excellent. Fresh crisp. vegetables, great flavoring, just perfect.”

“Very good “upscale” Mexican cuisine.”

“I posted these pics after my first visit 11 months ago. I drive Limousines for JMI located in Beaverton. I make it a point to eat at local places while im in that town.

“Jenna and Adam are an absolute joy. They always make me feel so welcome, and this has become my favorite local wine bar. The wine selection is fantastic, and I never leave without discovering a new bottle to add to my collection.”

“The scallion noodles are simple but amazing. Love them! I come here half as often as I’d like to, though, because of excess packaging. The take out bowls are not recyclable (even with James Recycling) and orders come in this fancy bag that not only isn’t recyclable but is thick and takes up space in the trash. After my take out meal I’m also throwing away a dental pick and other various items that come automatically in a prepackaged utensil kit.”

“This has become our favorite Korean food joint. Just went there again for dinner and it’s simply delicious. Slowly working our way through the menu, but had yet to find a dish that isn’t a winner. Also they never feel too crowded, can always find a table, at least the times we’ve gone, and parking has been good as well.”

“This place is a little hidden gem in Lake Oswego! The food is amazing and authentic. I love love the salsa bar! The prices are right and I will definitely be back!”

“Doooope spot, one of my favorite in Portland Metro. It may just be the architecture but the drinks were pretty good and design was minimal and clean.

The seating is excellent and music was best I’ve heard in a coffee shop for a long time.

I’m saw they have other locations which are probably more diverse which I look forward to.”

“The food is very good, the service is also very good, food prices are fair or good for the area, we liked the food and the service, no doubt about it.
What is kind of high is the beer price, 🍺 🤔
Not saying I can't afford it, but paying $8 per beer when you invite your friends for lunch and a few drinks, you feel it a little heavier.
Everything else was perfect! 👌”

“Love this off-the-path hidden gem. Fantastic drinks (clearly I’m a matcha fan), cozy vibe with comfortable seating, used books for sale, a game shelf, wonderful staff, delicious fresh-baked pastries, ice cream, and Cathedral-roasted coffee beans! The owners are genuine, kind & welcoming; the kind of business you want to support. Great place to meet friends, get some work done, or treat yourself to a peaceful afternoon. We are lucky to have this treasure in Scappoose.”

“Ive tried several drinks here and loved each and every one of them! The staff is friendly and fast. Go see for yourself!”

“I was thrilled to see this location open up in Lake O! It’s so easy to pop in and grab a quick meal to go, seriously so full of flavor and good for you! Highly suggest to anyone with vegan/vegetarian restrictions as well. My only wish is longer hours and online ordering in the future! 🤗”

“I’d like to thank the Lake View Taphouse team for excellent experience they cater each time me personally and our company events are hosted. Everything from planning, setup, cuisine, vibe, service is exceptional. Special shoutout to Jeff who has deep knowledge and literally “reads the mind” of customer.

Looking forward to many more dinners and fine times in this location.”

“Chick-fil-A continues to be one of the few institutions standing between me and total societal collapse.

Every time I come here, they hand me a spicy chicken sandwich with the kind of accuracy and warmth usually associated with a beloved grandmother or a highly trained diplomatic corps. The order is always right. The staff is always absurdly pleasant. The sandwich arrives hot, juicy, and spicy enough to remind me that I am still tethered to earthly sensation.

I do not come here for a political awakening. I come here because the waffle fries are crisp, the chicken is reliable, and for one brief shining moment in a world of chaos, someone looks me in the eye and says “my pleasure” like they mean it.

Five stars. The republic may yet endure.”
