42 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Gaston

“We had a great second time. The first time we visited, my sister and brother in law were visiting from Germany, the place is gorgeous, great pictures all around.
During this visit only wife and I came, it was a BDay celebration, they treated us wonderfully. One of the guys speaks Russian, I think that's a great asset to have around, and then, more guests you may have.
Thank you all for your candid assistance, well see you back sometime soon.“

“The food is amazing and they have an extensive menu. The staff is super friendly, funny and helpful. Absolutely worth the stop!“

“Great food and the staff was amazing.“

“What an amazing recommendation from NW Wine Shuttle and Kim. We squeezed them in and it ended up being my favorite part of the day! Spending time with Russell and the heart and story of Flaneur gave me a little bit of Paris married with delicious wine of the Willamette Valley. I cannot wait to return for food pairing and getting the most our of my new membership and reason to head to quaint Carlton from Portland as much as I can and recommending others as well as clients. What a great stop, don't miss it.“

“One of the most beautiful winery properties we’ve ever visited! We loved it so much we went back the next day. The service is amazing, the wine is delicious, and the views are picturesque! This is a must visit if you’re in the valley or looking for a new winery experience.“

“This is by far one of the best wineries I’ve been to in Oregon! The views of Mt. Hood are absolutely stunning, and the overall atmosphere is immaculate. The owners are incredibly welcoming and made the whole experience even more enjoyable for me and my friends. Plus, they have the cutest dog! The wine and food were both fantastic, especially the Bulls Blend! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great wine-tasting experience in Oregon with friends or family.“

“service is friendly and food is fresh - they support local businesses, too, which means a lot. I like their variety and they are OK with additions/subtractions to orders“

“We had a great experience tasting at the winery today! The new spirits area is also really cool with a cozy vibe. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable, the wines and spirits were all lovely, and the view is gorgeous even on a rainy day like today. We will definitely be back again soon!“

“buggah is cherry!! 10 outta 10!“

“Great view and great snacks with the wine. Loved the entire time we spent there“

“Our first visit to Willamette Valley on our fist day we decided to take a ride down to the coast, ended up on an amazing hike, visited the beach and stopped at a local seafood place in Manzanita and happed upon the most wonderful glass of Lemelson Pinot Noir. I immediately took a picture of the wine name to research later. We visited the vineyard the very next day, had a wonderful experience and as expected enjoyed every sip from our tasting. We are now proud Lemelson wine club members and couldn’t be more thrilled. I am a huge fan of Pinot Noir and this is some of the best. Our tasting experience was just as wonderful, the staff was friendly and knowledgeable, we had the best time relaxing by the fire and sipping on wine. This is a must stop when visiting the Willamette Valley!“

“Wonderful Wine Amazing People Great Nonprofit Always a Great Time!“

“Went today to try out Five Stars Family Burger. They were really busy and there was a long wait. I definitely recommend calling in your order…best burger I’ve ever had!!!“

“Beautiful evening with unique flights, stunning views, and passionate staff. It’s incredible to learn entrepreneurs' stories and how invested, they are in winemaking. We loved the Rieslings, will definitely visit again!“

“We had a wonderful tasting experience at Saffron, thanks to our host, Adam. He was the right amount of everything: attentive, funny, informative and so accommodating. Our wine purchase was mixed up and Adam went out of his way to make it right. That’s the kind of customer satisfaction that is so hard to find!
We will definitely be back and bring friends!!“

“The wine tasting experience here was incredible. The staff were so friendly! They offer a nice range of red and white wines. I bought a few bottles and can’t wait to try more. I also recommend getting the cheese board - it was a nice touch throughout the tasting experience!“

“We had a drop-in tasting with Liz, who was so kind and funny! She explained the wines were more dry (we prefer sweet) however they exceeded our expectations! The rosé was fantastic. We were able to have a private picnic out on the patio as well.“

“If you’re looking for that down home feel, Scoggins Creek Coffee won’t disappoint…They have the most delicious beverages and the staff is amazing!!!🥰 Best Mom and Pop shop around! I highly recommended stopping by if you ever find yourself rolling through Gaston or Yamhill.“

“Great experience! You get to meet the people that do the work, they have great pride!!“

“Really nice estate wines. Jody does a great job talking through the history of the vineyards and describing the wines. If you're buying 6 bottles or more, consider signing up for the wine club for additional discounts and free shipping.“

“Wine was very good. I think what set them apart was their Rose, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir were all worth purchasing, and we did. Seems rare for a winery to excel across multiple categories.

My only complaint is the tasting fee is expensive given you need to purchase $70 or $75 worth of product to waive just one tasting. For $35 you’re better off ordering 3-4 glasses at table for your party. The tasting pours are tiny…an ounce or less. Truly, just a taste. Go to catch the view and enjoy a glass of wine…they’re all delicious and worth the price. Don’t waste money on the tasting.“

“Such a great wine tour and tasting! We had Eric as our guide and he was a wealth of knowledge (as well as a great photographer for group shots).They were very accommodating when we ran into some transportation issues too. The winery has such a cool history and amazing views! This is a must do when visiting the area!“

“Incredible hidden winery. We went here on a whim and we are so happy we did. The view is beautiful. The service was terrific. The wines were delicious. I highly recommend making the trip here. I can’t wait to return and to share it with others.“

“I love 💕 Dutch Bros. Their teams are Amazing!“

“Friendly staff, good food, good location, outdoor dining, card games, outside covered seating and good place for a game of rummy. Highly recommended“

“I cant stress enough how much I recommend this restaurant. I found them by accident during a migrane episode but they have become a fan favorite of mine. don't let the price scare you away. The food is worth the price you pay and you won't regret it. It's jam packed with flavor that just make sense and makes me feel at home with the taste. I feel fulfilled after eating their dishes and have lefts overs for the next day. I love this restaurant“

“Good variety of wines with a wine maker that has great passion for his work.“

“Cellar Door Wine Tours took us to Tendril Wine Cellars first on our 3-winery tour and warned us we'd like it best. We truly did. Each wine was delicious. I'm an Oregon pinot noir fan and they make great ones, but also loved their white pinot noir and rose. Tasting manager Andrew was delightful and kept us both informed and laughing! The tasting room is very small, but they also have outside picnic tables for warmer months. Make an appointment and enjoy! I signed up for the wine club as I enjoyed every sip.“

“Incredible experience. Had the place to ourselves on a Thursday afternoon. Ray the manager of Craft guided us through the tasting and even gave us some extra wines to try as well. He was charming and gregarious and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If your in North Willamette you need to go to Craft, a definite must stop in Carlton“

“Ken Wright in Carlton, Oregon is a beautiful place for a delicious Pinot tasting. The tasting room is fabulous and the outside patio even better. Great wines, great staff ( I wish I had written down the gal’s name that hosted us) as she was knowledgeable, understood our palate and offered additional wines she thought we would like plus she was so fun. She also showed us the 1/2 Bottles we purchased for our at home wine tasting that evening. And of course we purchased other bottles. I recommend booking or stopping in Ken Wright Cellers.“

“Our visit to Laurel Ridge Winery was one of the most memorable experiences of our Oregon wine trip. Set on a beautiful 240-acre estate in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, this second-generation, family-owned winery embodies everything that makes Oregon wine country special — authenticity, passion, and a deep respect for the land.

We were greeted warmly by Kira Teppola, who now carries on the legacy started by her father, founder David Teppola. From the moment she began sharing her family’s story — from her father’s early fascination with French wine to his pioneering belief in the Willakenzie Loam soils — we were captivated. Kira’s knowledge of the land, the vines, and the winemaking process was extraordinary. Her enthusiasm was contagious; we hung on every word and felt truly connected to the spirit of Laurel Ridge. Even the family vineyard dog, who was initially a bit cautious, became our friend by the end of the visit!

The wines were exceptional. My favorite was the 2017 Barrel Select Pinot Noir, beautifully balanced and expressive of the terroir. We enjoyed it so much we opened a bottle that very night. The next day, I couldn’t stop thinking about the bright, refreshing 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, so we went back just to buy more! Kira graciously set us up with a picnic table outside under a heat lamp so we could enjoy lunch overlooking the estate — and even poured us a little more wine “so we wouldn’t get thirsty.”

It’s rare to find a place that feels this genuine — where every glass tells a story, and every detail reflects generations of care. Laurel Ridge isn’t just a winery; it’s a living family legacy built on passion, perseverance, and love for the land.

If you’re exploring the Willamette Valley, don’t miss this place. Come for the wine, stay for the warmth of the people. We’ll be back again and again.“

“Great tasting room , smooth flavorful product. Working with SakeOne and WasabiFest was a excellent experience. I look forward to collaborating with the team in the future. I encourage everyone to try their products.“

“We met our Son from out of town for lunch. I had a gift card and we've been wanting to go there. Everyone was so friendly it felt like it wasn't our first time being there. The service was excellent and the food was so good and the portions were ample. We will definitely be dining there again.

Parking: We parked in the lot behind the restaurant as street parking was full.“

“We had a late lunch around 2pm here on a Saturday after fishing near Hagg lake. We had a party of 9 and had a party room available that could fit us all together at one table. We appreciated being able to be seated together. They do charge a tip/service charge of 18% to use the room. We tried the chicken teriyaki don, katsu don, beef don, and salmon teriyaki don,oyakodon, as well as a salmon avocado roll. Everything was presented nicely and tasty. The dons included a small dish of soy based green beans. The one drawback was the kitchen was a little on the slow side, perhaps due to the time (2pm) we were being served.“

“Lots of different beer on tap and of course lots of different awesome food. I’ve never been to a cart I didn’t like, though I wouldn’t do the American food carts.“

“The BEST Thai food in Salem! We love going here for lunch, the woman is so nice and texting our order is super convenient! Great service �“

“You guys never disappoint, and are always so accommodating with my concoctions!! 🤣 Thank you for making today’s creation!! Raspberry, vanilla, orange drizzle, blended rebel, avalanche style!! DE. LISH!!! 👌🏼“

“Have been coming to this mazatlan since 2005 and the food is beyond amazing and the waiters still to this day remember my family. Amazing service. I highly recommend this restraunt.“

“I am a local guide who does reviews on restaurants and I am happy to recommend Mandarin China Restaurant! They are consistently delicious, the seasoning is spot on and the meat is tender and the vegetables crispy. The portions are generous and the timing for pickup is generally right on target. Forest Grove has a real winner with Mandarin China Restaurant!!!“

“Seriously, the best ribs..fall off the bone!. And they are about to open a brick and morter. Some of the best BBQ I have ever had!. And the owners and staff have always been amazingly friendly good peeps.
If you have a craving for smoked goodness...go give these people your money!

Kid-friendliness: Only of your kid likes good BBQ...

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy level access. And handicap parking is always available.“

“Pelagic brewing is now partnering with The amazing Comida KIN. Mary Hatz and Rodrigo Huerta are fabulous chefs serving farm to table, fresh and delicious real food!! They have only been with Pelagic about 5 weeks as of Dec. 5, 2025. Please give them a try!! We did and we will definatley be back. The food was fresh and flavorful with an eclectic approach to american and mexican quisine. I had the soup, salad and cornbread and requested to have a little chorizo added to my squash-carrot soup. Every bite was so delicious! My husband had the burger with fries and loved his meal as well. The pelagic beers were also a great pairing with our meals. They have plenty of gf, vegan and vegetarian options.
Read about them and Pelagic on Pelagic's website and then go support them. Let's keep them in town!“
