10 Best Cocktail Bars in Lake Oswego

“The bar tender went out of his way to help me. My car has a wind break that covers the back seat. I took the piece out of the car and he stored it for me so I would not have to go back to the room. Then we were late getting back from dinner, he stayed until we got back. As expected from the Crown Plaza. The best service.“

“10 stars! One of my absolute favorite restaurants the food is fabulous. Every time we are in Lake Oswego we stop for breakfast or lunch.“

“I always enjoy Oswego Grill. I brought my friend and her teenage daughter there. My friend was celebrating her 65th Birthday. The meal was great and the Farrell's Banana Split was a special birthday treat! The only ding in my mind is how dark it is inside - day or evening. Otherwise, it's often my go-to for a nice lunch, dinner, or happy hour when I'm in the Lake Oswego area.“

“Five Spice Seafood + Wine Bar in Lake Oswego is one of those restaurants that makes you appreciate living in this area. The food is fantastic, especially if you love fresh seafood and unique Pacific Northwest flavors. Everything we tried was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and the wine selection pairs perfectly with the menu.

The atmosphere is warm, elegant, and relaxed, making it a great spot for date night, celebrating with friends, or just enjoying a nice evening out. If you can sit near the lake, it makes the experience even better. The staff was welcoming and attentive, which always makes a big difference.

As a local real estate agent who spends a lot of time helping buyers explore homes in Lake Oswego and West Linn, I’m always looking for great local places to recommend. Five Spice is definitely one of those restaurants I suggest to clients who are getting to know the neighborhood. It really shows off the charm and lifestyle that makes the Lake Oswego and West Linn area such a wonderful place to live.

Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Lake Oswego or exploring the West Linn area and want a great meal and a beautiful local dining experience.“

“A craft cocktail bar in a suburban Hilton. Does the ambiance leave something to be desired? Yes, but… the cocktail menu and drink quality here make it a quirky and well worth it visit. The head bartender here is clearly well trained and talented. He introduced himself and explained that he creates the seasonal menu himself. The ingredients are high quality, including homemade syrups and shrubs. He made an on the spot mocktails for our group as well as the amazing cocktails.“

“Holy 5-alarm fire! I got the Fusiili ala Vodka, which I know is supposed to have some heat, but this one —- it’s like the cap fell off the jar of chili flakes! I still loved it - the pasta was perfectly cooked, the pork shoulder was bursting with great spices, but I was still facially sweating through the whole meal. We got their Caesar salad too, which was excellent, not too much dressing and just the right amount of anchovies. The real deal, and helped cool off my lips.
Grassa has their counter service food model down pat, and the meals come out fairly quick, fresh and hot, so thumbs up there. Service is up and down, depending on how slammed they are, but I give them a pass since they do do aLOT of takeout orders and are not meant to be table service. Love that they have beer, wine and some cocktails too.
This location works well for all the reasons stated above, but we often get our food to go — the ambiance here is not that great. Strip-mall -modern-meets industrial in a cold, cavernous space does not make you want to linger. No thanks.“

“I wish nothing but the best for Baird's , nice to always see there's some great businesses out there that actually care about making a difference.“

“Tucci has a vast menu with options galore and reasonable prices. The service has always been excellent. They have a policy of no corkage fee so bring a bottle of wine with you! The only downside is the restaurant can be quite noisy, so be aware.“

“Friendly service and great food.“

“My husband and I were disappointed by the restaurant a couple of times over the past three years. While we were exploring and looking for something new to do, we came across Mann’s and noticed that it had new management so we gave it a try. I just had to share how pleased we were with the new interior, friendly and professional staff, and excellent food. I am well travelled, but this clam chowder was the best I have ever tasted. I’m probably going to wish I didn’t post this review - adding to the reservation waiting list will interfere with our spontaneity, but it was just that good. I hope this restaurant becomes the fixture in Lake Oswego that it was always meant to be. Well done!“
