I don't like seafood so I can't comment on that. I have tried different things each time and I have loved every dish. Even the Ceasar salad was the best I ever had. The only thing that was a bit strange was the wild boar ragu I had last night. It was not like any ragu I have had. But it tasted absolutely amazing, and very different from anything else I have ever had. It was an experience.

Thank you for everything. Good food, friendly people, and great setting. read more Thank you for everything. Good food, friendly people, and great setting.

We had our meal delivered, without cutlery, and were asked if we needed anything. ???? We ordered a bottle of white wine and weren't given an ice bucket.???? (Being seated by the fireplace didn't keep our wine chilled. Service was slow, but the food was very good, so we will beback.

This is a really pretty venue. You have the choice of sitting inside (at a table or bar) by a fireplace, sit in the adjoining all glass atrium or dine outside.... read more This is a really pretty venue. You have the choice of sitting inside (at a table or bar) by a fireplace, sit in the adjoining all glass atrium or dine outside. Lots of seating options all with beautiful views of the Willamette river. The restaurant ispart of The Independence Hotel and , there are tables on their roof that have even better views. I'm not sure if you can orderfrom up there though. There are lots of good local beer and wine options and hard liquor as well. Food prices were a little onthe high end. Most dishes were either $15 or $25. Lots of good appetizers. I've had their steak, fish and chips and Salmon. Theywere all very good with excellent presentation. The staff were all very friendly. This is one of the best places to take an outof town friend or relative.
