I've picked up and dined in here about a handful of times and have been pleased every time. I like that the menu is simple and not overwhelming with options. Grateful to have this restaurant in the area especially when I'm feeling lazy and decide I don't want to cook and can get in & out of here with a full belly in a timely fashion. Burgers have been delicious every time & the wings were good too. Excited to go back and try more things on the menu but the burgers are so good I end up getting them every time lol. They have great daily specials as well.
Also, they did a really good job fixing this place up.... sometimes these newer restaurants modernize a place & it jus feels cold with no character. Not the case at Lamplight. It's clean & more modern, but still feels cozy & inviting. I like the wood on the back bar. 2 thumbs up from this gal.

Got there a little after noon a few weeks ago. Ordered our food after having a drink. Were told about 15 minutes later that it would be a while for our food because there was a meeting going on. Took about an hour more. What business has a meeting going on that close to opening time in the first place? Food was ok. I gave server a 5 star rating, bc the poor girl had to explain this unprofessional situation to customers.

We came in with a small group for lunch on a Friday, and it was everyone's first time in. The bar and most of the tables in the bar area were full, so we were excited.

We ordered the fried chicken sandwich and smash cheese burgers, both of which were good! I don't usually finish my burgers because I'm not a huge fan of ground beef, but they made the burger perfectly. There was a perfect amount of all the toppings nothing was overpowering.

We ended up here again the later, in the evening, for dinner after some family came to visit and wanted to go out for food. Our dinner party included a sweet puppy, and they were nice enough to let us sit on the patio with our puppy. They have a huge patio, so this place is great for larger parties.

On our 2nd visit, we had the smash burger and the spicy smash, cheese fries, and cheese tots, all of which were super good!

Definitely recommend giving them a try or a re-try as we were very happy with each visit. If you are not in Polo, there is another bar in Oregon that seems like it is owned by the same people as they have the exact same menu.
