“Love this place. The meat quality is outstanding and the owners are sweet as can be. I wish more people would get their meat here than the plastic fake shiz walmart tries to sell you. The taste n texture alone is worth the extra few bucks. I rather rat here once a month then get 3 meals of meat from.a chain store. ❤️❤️❤️“
“I wish I had a personal vehicle to visit Blizzard more often. This past weekend, a friend and I visited for the first time and had an absolute blast. Aelis was our server; honestly, they felt more like a friend after our experience.The space is fantastic inside and out. I fell in love with the outdoor patio tables spaced far enough apart for privacy, and the large umbrellas and table fireplaces make this very cozy. While there are several flight options, I would recommend ordering a selection of them for your group if you are open to sharing. We went for two, including the Blizzard Champagne flight.While our reservation was for 90 minutes, we were so comfortable and happy that we stayed for nearly four hours. Aelis informed us about the wines, histories, and more. The charcuterie board is well-priced and substantial, so I recommend this. Ginger, the vineyard doggo, will definitely come and say hello. I would consider becoming a member here since it is difficult to come by good quality and reasonably priced Champagne in America. Blizzard's story and unique market share are a win for anyone looking for good vibes. However, you probably won't have fun here if you bring ego. Enjoy!I'll definitely be back.“
“Great variety of beers made at this brewery. You can sit at the bar or find a table and try samples of the beers to make sure you get the ones you want.They have sours, IPAs, stouts, a Scotch ale and many more rotating. Dog friendly and free popcorn in this air conditioned place too!“
“Thirsty Lion is my favorite restaurant in Hillsboro. I go for brunch most weekends as they have an excellent brunch menu. Mikyla is one of their best servers and I always ask for her at brunch. All the servers are attentive and friendly.I recommend the edamame or pretzel for an appetizer, and the bread pudding for desert. You can’t go wrong with any entree but my favorite is the Caesar salad with salmon and my husband loves the French dip.“
“My beer knowledge has ebbed and flowed during my time in Oregon. There were years when I went to festivals, curated loops of brewery tours for visiting friends and generally cared way too much about beer. Then there's the point I'm at now, where a new brewery has to legitimately bring something new to the table to get me to break routine or present value that makes it unique in the marketplace.If your pints are $8 to $9 in the taproom, but your four packs of 16-ounce cans go for roughly that at WinCo, I'm not impressed.Settling into a less fanatic approach to beer here has given me more appreciation for breweries like Vertigo and folks like Mike. During the peak of the Oregon beer boom--when banks were throwing stupid money at any business plan that involved beer and legacy brands that sold to disinterested owners just waited for their turn to die--Mike plugged along at Vertigo and kept improving his recipes and offerings.When Hillsboro said "Hey, want to pay way more overhead for a spot downtown that can't fit your tanks?" Mike passed and had food trucks come into his business park. When the Hillsboro Hops said "Hey, want to pay an exorbitant rights fee to have the ballpark ale at the park?" he once again passed and let BridgePort bankrupt itself as a minor league team's official partner. It took about four breweries (also from outside of Hillsboro) to replace it.Mike persists for the reason Orenco Tap House persists and Culmination Brewing persists... he knows full well what it's like to maintain a brewery on your own and keep the place afloat. The brewhouse and DIY tasting room? That used to be a lot more commonplace before brewers started taking out jumbo loans and pouring venture capital into fast-growth, multiple-footprint operations. The growlers and kick-the-keg specials? Yeah, that's how you build something called loyalty instead of playing a turnover game that'll force a rebrand every three years.A menu of beers like blondes, porter, pale ale (that still boosts the baseball team), traditional IPAs and the venerable Razz Wheat aren't "entry level" offerings, but staples for regulars who've been around the horn of hazies, sours, pastry stouts and other exploding-can trends before seeking their forever home. There's a reason why this taproom is a blend of area old-timers and Intel youngbloods... and why Vertigo's offerings have only become more accessible on taps throughout Washington County.A brewery doesn't need to conquer the world to succeed, nor does it need to chase trends to be beloved: It just needs to care about the product it makes, care enough about the people buying it to keep them comfortable and make the occasional concession to the times.Mike started canning because the pandemic called for cans... and buyers grew to like them. Names of beers changed to sound less like seasonals and more like year-round staples. But the core of the business never wavered, and Vertigo's clientele is grateful.Much like many legacy businesses here in the area (Helvetia and Oak Knoll wineries, the Pharmacy, Hale's, etc.), I get the sense that Vertigo's here for as long as Mike wants it to be. Considering how few of his contemporaries had that option (or stuck around to find out), Hillsboro is extraordinarily fortunate to house a brewery of Vertigo's quality and pedigree that remains so vital to its surrounding community.“
“I went in at the busiest time of the day, and was still able to get meat cut to order; it included one of the nicest beef tenderloins I've ever seen. As a rule, their meat is of higher quality, and the prices are a better than you would get at a grocery store.Wheelchair accessibility: This establishment complies with all handicap accessibility code.“
“We sat outside and the table was kind of dirty. I asked our server if I can get anything to wipe the table. It seemed she couldn't figure out where the stain was. She lightly wiped the table, but the stain remained. It was a sunny day, so I guess it was hard to see the stain depending on the angle. But there was also a bread crum left behind on the table, so maybe they forgot to wipe it. Who knows.We ordered the fresh orange juice and cafe latte. The orange juice was really good, but 8 dollars for this?? As for the coffee, the milk foam was too thick and not silky at all. I do not recommend.The food we ordered was good, so maybe I'll try again next time.“
“I stayed at Aloft with a group of colleagues for business. I have health issues and Angela Jay and the rest of the staff took care of my every need ! I would definitely come back with my family for another stay. Room service was daily and the restaurant didn’t close until very late. Great place to unwind after a hectic day!“
“The service here is always great. I try something new every time I visit. I have never been disappointed.Parking: The entrance is just a short walk from the parking garage exit door. You literally walk out of the first floor parking door and the restaurant is immediately in view. There's a cover from the garage to the entry, so if it's raining, you don't have to walk in the rain.“
“BREAKFAST BURRITO - Ordered the sausage & bacon one. $11.25 each and huge, next time we will have to share just one because neither of us could finish ours. On the board, it says “with hashbrowns“ which I do not like. As it turns out it had chunks of potato instead, which I do like. We liked everything about the breakfast burrito except for the sausage. Next time we will order it with just the bacon, which was not underdone in limp, but fried perfectly crisp as it should be. This is the second time we have ordered here and we remembered right away that the sausage had a nasty taste to it. We finally decided that the only way we can describe the taste is kind of soapy taste. we just picked up the sausage pieces and the rest was very tasty.“
“Such good pricing for amazing wines! Really nice family atmosphere too, got to play some pool with my visiting family. The lady working there was so welcoming as well and enthusiastic about not only the wine but the history of the winery. We left with over 7 bottles of wine due to such great deals and diversity of flavors that made everyone at the table happy, including those who normally didn't like wine!“
“Jersey girl pizza is a must try when you’re in Hillsboro OR. The pizza is fantastic and the service is top notch. We had lunch there and were with two of our vision impaired friends and their guide dogs. The staff went above and beyond to make feel welcomed and comfortable. They explained the menu options, had suggestions, and created exactly what we wanted on our pizza. Jersey girl pizza is in my opinion, the best pizza in the area hands down. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.“
“We stopped in while we were waiting for our cat at the emergency vet in the same complex. We had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, who was awesome! We got 2 flights, dealers choice-after telling him what we like and don’t like. I am new to tasting beers and he was so helpful and had me try different things to try and pinpoint what I actually enjoy! We happened to kick a keg, and got a shirt for it! Such a great place! We will definitely be back!“
“The people here are awesome! They know how to have fun and make really good drinks. Hit them up for a good time and better service. (They're really fun!)Dietary restrictions: They really care if you like your drinks and make sure your can actually drink themKid-friendliness: The people are fun and entertainingWheelchair accessibility: They have a walk-up window and will send a barista out to meet you if you need assistance“
“First time visiting Oregon and this was our first stop. It didn't disappoint! Our host, Glenn (Glen?), greeted us warmly and guided us to the outdoor deck overlooking Mt. Hood. My friend and I ordered different flights, so we got a good taste of their stock. Glenn is knowledgeable of the vinyard, the process, and wine in general, and enjoyed sharing his accumulated knowledge of the area and wines as we peppered him with questions. We are not wine connoisseurs by any stretch of the imagination, but both know what we like. There was much to like, and we're headed back to the East Coast with a few bottles in our luggage. Thank you, Glenn, for making this jewell of a vinyard sparkle.“
“Time and time again, this gem never disappoints. Their brunch is absolutely slept on and is by far the best in Orenco Station. Their dinner menu is also amazing. They have a vast selection of local beer/ales, and delicious cocktails.Giant Delicious Pancakes, veggie omelette, fish & chips, bacon jam burger, Bavarian pretzel in photos attached!!Kid-friendliness: They have food options our 8 year old really enjoys!“
“I was just there, I had the beef pho combo and it was delicious. Service-wise the waiter made a mistake and without missing a beat he went out of his way to take care of me. Beautiful decorations in the place as well, thank you so much for the food!“
“The food was pretty good. I had chicken tenders that were a bit heavy on the breading but the taste was good. Service was good although it was very busy, the place was packed, and I only saw two servers. I don't know if that's normal for a Thursday night but they could have used another server or help from the on shift manager. Drinks were great. Atmosphere was good if you're looking for a place to gather that's loud like most bar type settings.“
“The burritos taste amazing! The workers were pretty friendly as well:)) Really amazing portion sizes for the price too! I definitely recommend. In my opinion they taste much better than chipotle. They also have a nice clean seating area for anyone wondering.“
“I go to Dutch bros daily. This is the BEST location in Hillsboro. Everyone is so nice, they're fast, and I haven't had any mistakes made in any of my orders. They recognize us when we come in and even notice when one of us is missing. Love coming here!!“
“We had a lovely visit to the Winery. Derrick was very welcoming and knowledgeable regarding the wines. The wines were enjoyable, mostly Pinot noirs but the merlot was excellent, too. The best part was sitting in a lovely homey atmosphere by a wood stove and having a relaxing afternoon.“
