“I’d have given a 5 star if not for the cute little waitress that greeted us. She was really nice and I had walked in behind my husband and she had already asked for his id and then told me I was fine. I still got my id out on my phone because that is where my id is. So for those who don’t know there are 2 states that I know of that have electronic identification like in my myColorado™ app. They ARE A LEGAL ID! For someone who wasn’t even going to look at my ID to feeling like she was going to kick me out of the restaurant because she didn’t believe it was a real ID. All this would have been completely understandable if she hadn’t already said I didn’t need to show my id.“
“Top-notch bar burger. In our New World of $16-$20 hamburgers, this place stands out as being an actual good value for the money. When I want a good top shelf hamburger, this is where I go. I bashed the Verdict food cart for their burger being just average for the money. This is the place I'm comparing it with. Way better.“
“Fuego Underground is indeed "Fire!" I've been to dozens of Speakeasy establishments in New York, Las Vegas, and even in Central America. Fuego Underground has easily become a top 5 favorite experience for me!It isn't secreted behind an unmarked door or hidden behind a business front, but it has an authentic feel of a Speakeasy from the 20s and 30s. The servers are dressed as flappers, and the interior of the Underground beneath De Fuego bar attached to the Monarch hotel in Clackamas is opulent yet tasteful and reminiscent of the era. There is live piano music at opening, and smooth jazz trios and featured artists later in the evening.The service is on point. Everyone embraces the spirit of the experience being created within the Fuego Underground. The cocktails are heavily weighted toward the whiskey and bourbon drinking crowd, yet all drinks are given the prohibition era spin in presentation. The entrees are predominantly various cuts of beef with some exceptions, and they are of equal quality to any high-end steak house in Portland. The sides are varied and better than most compared to, say, El Goucho or Ringside. I had a Gâteau au Chocolat for desert that was delicious! (even though I had to take it home and eat it 2 hours later for being so full!)Overall, it was an amazing experience! If you love a good Speakeasy, you HAVE to try Fuego Underground. If you just like great steaks and craft cocktails, this is a hidden gem with easy parking, but reservations are recommended. This place is popular and for very good reason.“

“This is a lovely setting in Lake Oswego.Service is outstanding and atmosphere is very relaxing. We could have stayed there tasting wine for hours. Josh our waiter was very nice and took time explaining all the different wines and their unique characteristics.They had a red wine tasting offered. But when he heard I only drink white, he made me my own special white wine tasting. I am an owner, but I'm sure they give this outstanding service to everyone.Parking: This is in a mall by Whole Foods on State StreetSo“
“Comfortable place to eat and visit... I'm not a vegetarian, but I really enjoyed the wild salmon hash. Flavorful... The gent behind the counter was helpful. I ordered the green Macha tea w/coconut milk, oat milk and honey. Good...I met my friend, June there. She enjoyed her Avocado toast also...“
“I had a little lunch date with my wife there. Everything was good and food was excellent. I had Ravioli and my wife had a salad. It seems everything they serve are good. Only thing is that price was bit expensive other than that I strongly recommend this place.My dog was watching us across street. That is my Golden Retriver name "Belle".“
“This place is just adorable and such an eclectic menu! We had the sweetest time celebrating my birthday dinner and will absolutely be back for brunch! Best cooked octopus I've ever had and the table raved about the burger. Also don't miss the cheesecake.“
“Picked this place because reviews said it was dog friendly. Pizza was REALLY good and it made for a filling affordable lunch. Dogs enjoyed the patio. My server Becky did a great job keeping my drinks filled and checking in on me. I will be returning!“
“Great food truck! My friend and I got a Nutella and banana sweet crepe. They were very accommodating with allergies, we ended up getting a vegan crepe instead of the regular. We will be going back soon and trying the other items on the menu!“
“Friends had a food truck, then moved into Fopo. La Cocina Los Girasoles has amazing Mexican food. Pork Belly Tacos and Quesatacos. Sadly no minors are allowed, but the will accommodate. Under 21 can order food and they will walk it out to the sidewalk.“

“We recently dined for our Wedding Anniversary. I tasked my husband with selecting a spot we'd never been with great food and a casual atmosphere. While he would've happily taken me to an upscale establishment, we simply wanted to celebrate in a laid back way. He made reservations to sit in the bar and they were very accommodating. We ended up at the bar, which we prefer. The atmosphere is very unique with a lot of beautiful wood. The structure is what I think is an old house and includes quaint outdoor seating. Had the temp not been in the 90s, we would've definitely sat outside. The Bartender was friendly and helpful with menu selections. I enjoyed a martini and my husband chose wine. We began with crabcakes which were flawless! The Caesar salad was wonderful as well. It included more of the leafy part of the romaine where I prefer the hearts but small thing really. Our shared entree was Alaskan halibut which was prepared simply and beautifully. We were treated by the house to a small lava cake, topped with high quality vanilla ice cream and fresh berries and it was delightful! All in all, we would definitely return to Baird's on B. We could tell that many customers were regular locals and I can see why. What a cute place to be able to walk to. On a sidenote: a group of young ladies, under legal drinking age were seated at a table nearby and they ordered various mocktails. We watched the preparation and these drinks were works of art - including fresh muddled fruit. With a growing trend of adults choosing to forego alcohol, nice option!“
“Good food, nice atmosphere, excellent service.Definitely on the expensive side, easy to spend $100-150/person for one or two glasses of wine and dinner.My biggest complaint, as other reviewers have noted, is the lack of transparency on prices of wine by the glass. Recommendations are given without mentioning the cost, so you have to ask for a price after each recommendation, and you have to rely on recommendations, since there's not a printed list to refer to.Nice, but once was enough for me.“

Everyone is always so kind and welcoming when we walk in with two kids under 5!The coffee is delicious and everything I’ve ordered here has been great. Highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: Very nice and accommodating to small children.“
“Nestled discreetly within a modest urban strip mall, and positioned tantalizingly close to the Nansen Summit, Walter Mitty's Restaurant and Bar seamlessly delivers a gratifying dining experience wrapped in an unpretentious ambiance. During my visit, Susan, my gracious server, revealed the area's hidden treasures, painting a vivid picture of local gems for me to explore while I savored my meal. Her insightful guidance ensured that I departed not only satiated but also armed with a trove of captivating destinations to discover during my stay.“
“OH MY GOD. I showed up with a few friends after learning about this place the day before. The guy working here was super cool and got all of our bowls out at the same time in maybe 10 minutes or so, and it was some of the creamiest mac and cheese I've ever gotten from a restaurant. We will definitely be coming back again.“
“Great low-key atmosphere, rain or shine! Family and dog friendly. Tons of outdoor seating, dozens of brews on tap, and several food truck options. We opted for brews and 1/4 slices of Ranch Pizza's pepperoni pizza and breadsticks. Everything hit the spot, staff were kind and helpful, and on a Friday night there was live music on the patio. We'll certainly be back!“
