Mazama Brewing Orenco Station

I wrote a negative review after a waitress wasn’t very nice when I visited, I was pretty upset, but I decided to edit my original post. The whole restaurant doesn’t need to be held accountable for one member of staffs attitude that day. (Benefit of the doubt, maybe she was having a bad day.) The biscuits and gravy here are good and I like the outside seating.

Overpriced food, inconsistent service, and the owner or manger obviously doesn’t care about what’s going on. I ordered a beer and they literally pulled a glass of beer out of the fridge instead of pouring it. I was curious if anyone else had this experience so I searched through other reviews and I quickly found that someone else experienced this too. I asked my waiter why and they eluded to something about the beer that they “brew” being down that day which I mentally called BS on. Found a hair in my food, witnessed employees talking bad about a customer, and I waited too long for everything. With all the great bars in Hillsboro and Portland, you can afford to SKIP THIS ONE.

Nice atmosphere and clean restaurant. I came in for brunch and ordered the mazama omlette. As described it says stuffed with cheddar cheese and grilled onions (among a couple other meats) when it came there was maybe a tablespoon of cheese sprinkled on top, non inside the omelette and the grilled onions were raw. I took one bite and that was it. The server asked about it and I explained. She still charged me full price. That service was unacceptable, why should customers pay for something that was not as advertised? I live in orenco station and will not be coming back.

Went here for the first time and ordered a beer. This is supposed to be a brewery, but instead of pouring me a beer, they took a filled glass out of the refrigerator. They said it had been a mistake pour for a different customer. It had gone completely flat and been sitting in a cooler. They didn’t even offer to pour me a fresh one. For a brewery, they don’t seem to take much pride in their beer.

I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to have discovered this absolute gemstone. I go here with a work buddy of mine on our lunch hour, and I have never been disappointed. My two favorite items on the menu are the fried chicken sandwich, and then the bacon jam burger. Both delectable and unique to other restaurants! The fries…probably my favorite battered fries literally anywhere I’ve ever been. The beer menu is always excellent and full of great choices. And they always have specials going on in both food AND beer. Most recent special was the steak and frites (steam and fries). Steak was cooked PERFECTLY medium rare, exactly how I asked for it. And the fries were the perfect compliment. Here’s a trick: there is a parking garage directly behind the brewery under the apartment building. You need to go to the meter to get a pass for your dashboard, but the first two hours are FREE! That means plenty of parking!

If you are looking for amazing American food done super well and elevated above the classics, this is the place to go. The staff always goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need, and have always been attentive and have been able to answer every question I throw their way. They’ve even gone out of the way to make suggestions for improvements to what I’ve been ordering and haven’t failed me even once.

I hear they have weekend brunch. I am excited to try and will update my review once I get around to going!

Terrible service. Waited more than 50 minutes for our orders.After receiving half of the order, we realized the server forgot to place food orders for half of our group. No communication by the server till we asked what's happening, and no effort to fix this situation. Sad to see how they treat local frequent customers. Will not be coming back again.
Also this is not the first time they are running short of staff, hopefully they fix this and hire more friendly staff.

We took off work early to get to happy hour with our baby. No one acknowledged us so we left

We love Mazama! The fried chicken sandwich and fried pickles are our favorites. Great service and kid friendly! We love parking our stroller outside and sitting on the patio. We can color with chalk or visit the water fountains while we wait for our food.

While looking for a nice sit-in place I stumbled across Mazama. It had great reviews and a nice looking menu. I convinced my friend to give it a try over BJs and copper river. We both found it to be the better establishment. The food is fantastic, the service is great and the atmosphere is lovely.

We ordered the pancake breakfast, eggs scrambled, a side of poratoes, and a memosa and a beer.
The potatoes were burnt, greasy shavings. The eggs were under cooked and greasy, and the memosa was a small pour for $10.
I want to like this place, but this was the last straw.

Parking is a little tricky with it being right next to Orenco Station on the Orenco Station Loop but there's retail parking on the north side of the block across the street to the east. Solid food in a casual setting with really great service. I end up chatting up the server every time I'm here and they're always really personable. Solid tap list and a full bar with a good selection of cocktails.
