50 Best Salad Restaurants near Lake Oswego

“Amber was an amazing hostess. If you ever get the chance to be hosted by her, expect excellent service! She accommodates to all of your requests and provides such a nice dining atmosphere. My sister and I were pleasantly pleased with her kindness and how she went above and beyond for us. Thank you for taking great care of us!“

“The owner/operator is incredible and the food is delicious. In addition to sandwiches, salads, wraps, and specialty items (like chili and soup), there's a decent assortment of snacks, beverages, and candy as well. Great little hidden gem.“

“Pizza is always delicious! As are the salads and sides. One of our dining companions is gluten free and it was extremely disappointing that they had not prepared any gluten free dough for the day, leaving this diner with only a salad or side to eat. We were there for lunch at 12pm.“

“What a marvelous place for our neighborhood“

“The people are friendly, the chicken and veggie bowls are always good with sour cream and avocado 😋“

“I made a reservation for my birthday prior to their "Top 50 Restaurants in the U.S.," courtesy of the NYT, and I'm glad I did - reservations fill up quick. The food was great, but what really blew me away was their ability to be flexible. My husband was coming home on an international flight and his flight delay put us missing our reservation by 30 minutes and I got into contact with them the second that I knew (sorry for the 6:00 am text ?). Granted, it could have been a coincidence that day (it was a Friday and maybe there weren't too many people clamoring for a spot), but they were able to work with me and allow us to come to our table for a 1.5 hour service instead of a 2. That alone would make me come back, the food really was a plus at that point ? there are also nonalcoholic drink options that I really appreciated as I no longer drink. But yes, come for the food and stay for the service! Excited to try more of their menu next time.“

“We are so impressed with this restaurant, it’ll be our new Thursday night date night spot!
We enjoyed the ambiance greatly, were delighted by all 8 dishes we got, and loved the service.
My husband ordered the Old Fashioned Cocktail and the Bar Manager came out to introduce himself and tell us more about what makes it so special. He actually works with a local distillery to create the drink and bottle it. It was so good we ordered 2 and then went to the store down the street to buy our own bottle!

The small plates are incredible, and from 5-6 each night you can get a little 2-person sampler of all of them for only $38! Best deal in town! And then if you’re hungry, the steak was cooked PERFECTLY.

We couldn’t decide on a dessert so we ordered both!! Glad we did.“

“Name held up! My avocado toast was perfectly seasoned and made, and the chocolate chip cookie was 🤌🏾 Carrot/orange/ginger juice had a good amount of ginger which is what I prefer. Will absolutely be going back.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food“

“I think we may have found our favorite Korean restaurant on the west side! Food was fresh and yummy! Love the how the lettuce is presented. Every single leaf was crisp and perfect! Service was really good as well. Prices are a bit higher, but for what we got, we felt we got a lot of food for those prices.“

“Simply phenomenal food. I have never had these flavor combinations before and was delighted by every bite. The ginger salad, mushroom noodles, and pork curry were all exceptional. My friends and I had an enjoyable afternoon eating and chatting in the bright space. Staff were very friendly. We will be back!“

“On Wednesday, we made a detour to Tito’s Taquitos Swan Island in N Portland.
This was a clean, quick and friendly lunch spot located in the Swan Island industrial area. They have indoor and outdoor seating, with lots of parking.
My husband ordered one rib eye taco on blue corn tortilla, one garlic butter shrimp taco and 4 crispy hand-rolled potato filled taquitos topped with braised beef.
They also offered green, red, or habanero sauces.
Each bite has their flavor, texture, components and the balance to satisfy our taste, we love it.“

“If you love a fried chicken sandwich or a smash burger, this is the spot for you. The food is consistently great, the service is stellar and you can't complain about the indoor outdoor dining options hosted by the Breakside Brewery. Must try for a date night or family outing.

“This is an upscale restaurant that hosts two seating per night. We arrived for our 5PM reservation and were greeted promptly as promised. From the moment we arrived we were treated with deference and care. Every staff member, as well as Chef Adams, was thoughtful of our needs and anticipated them before we could ask. The restaurant itself is charming and eclectic. Framed art, potted plants, serve ware and an abundance of cookbooks are arranged neatly creating an atmosphere of warmth and welcome. We were fortunate enough to be seated at the Chef's counter and enjoyed engaging, knowledgeable and informative conversation throughout our visit. Our reservation was for the seven course spring menu and as soon as the first appetizer arrived we knew we were in for an outstanding experience. Each course was thoughtfully and meticulously prepared. Each dish was an explosion of flavor and always a delight! The creative combinations of flavors and textures left us in awe of Chef Aaron's skill and creativity. The attention to each detail, recipes, hospitality, plating and ambiance was impeccable. We could not have been more impressed. We hope to return again and again!“

“Wow! Where do I begin. Everything I eat here is always delicious and you can tell the owners care so much, about the food, the dinning space, and their team. I love the wine list and the rotating pizza specials. Definitely a favorite spot of mine and I am so happy they are in the neighborhood.“

“First time eating Ethiopian food, trusted the waiter to choose our food and wine pairing and he hit it spot on! Everything was absolutely delicious. So fresh and spicy and flavorful. We will definitely be back often!“

“Today we visited this place for breakfast. It was very tasty ? and also, the owner is very nice and prepares incredibly delicious breakfasts. And considering that he is from Kyiv, it’s actually a nice bonus to meet your person ?a piece of calm, atmosphere, delicious coffee and wonderful breakfasts!
When we come to Portland again, we will definitely come back!“

“I'm kicking myself for not discovering this hidden gem sooner! This breakfast and lunch spot delivers exceptional fresh food and genuinely warm, family-style service. The quality is truly outstanding, and the vibrant atmosphere makes any wait enjoyable. We loved cozying up to the window bar, watching the world go by while enjoying fresh coffee and browsing National Geographic and Mad Magazine. The food? It exceeded all expectations, both in presentation and flavor. And knowing the owner and his daughter are a hands-on team makes supporting them even more rewarding. A must-try!“

“Awesome! This is the place if you work nearby. Weighed by the pound (they subtract the plate/container weight), they have an awesome selection of cold and hot food. I had samples of sushi, avocado salad, mango salad, chicken salad, and even BBQ meatballs and sausages! They are super nice and you should at least give it a try on your lunch break. Plus they have breakfast stuff too!“

“I want to take them back home to Houston with me and NEVER LET THEM GO. Salad this delicious makes me feel kidnappy. 😍“

“Not our first visit…been coming for decades.“

“This is such a fun and unique place! The vibes are immaculate. The drinks are strong and delicious. The food is incredible, and the staff is absolutely amazing!! I can't recommend Oma's enough. You must go if you're in the area.“

“very delicious food and even better service.“

“Deli made good food restaurant, outside frescoe atomosphere, good Italian food!“

“Excellent food. Great service.“

“This is the best Thai food I've tasted in Portland! Fresh, fast and made to order. They have both done in or take home. Either way it is fresh and yummy. Very delicious and great for families or a group gathering.“

“Ordered from here for takeout. Usually order Mio Sushi and this place blew them away! The pork katsu and beef teriyaki in the bento box were sooooo good. Also the California rolls, seaweed salad, dragon rolls and salmon sashimi were fresh and tasty as well! Highly recommend this place!“

“What a wonderful day to be at the Ames meat research! Todays super sunny, and I am extremely positive to meet Ms. Amanda 🙂 Amanda is so amazing and she’s happy to post our Oregon reuses sticker!! Way to help save the environment Amanda! 🤗 I’m even more happy that Ames Meat Reaseach will accept our clean reusable containers with her delicious meals!!“

“Everything is so good. It is so hard to make a decision. But it’s alright because you can’t make a mistake all so good 😋😋“

“Ate here with my family in October 2024. Nice sunny, chilly day visiting Portland. I had the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. My boys had burgers and loved them. The lemonade was delicious but expensive for the little cup. In a little section off the street with 3 other food trucks, and some outdoor picnic seating. We had no problem parking around the corner, but no parking right in front. Free water and cups are available in the seating area.“

“I love this place. It is in my neighborhood, so it's becoming one of my go-to local watering holes. The food has been excellent and they offer a lot of variety. Great list of beers, too. It is a pub food joint so it is loud and there are lots of TVs with sports on...which is awesome.

Parking: I never had a problem finding parking unless there was a football game at the high school.“

“S/o to César for hooking it up with a bomb carne asada burrito. Asada was flavorful and I like how it wasn’t heavy with refried beans and using whole bean made more delicious and wasn’t heavy on the stomach , love the pico thru out the burrito and plenty of of sauces to pick from I went with mango habanero and avocado Serrano definitely will be back for some tacos and a breakfast burrito !“

“I had lunch at Troutdale Station from Le Bistro Montage ala Cart today and it was so good. Enjoyed their creamy garlic pesto mac and when I'm in town I will definitely come back to try their other flavors. Definitely recommend.“

“Amazing food, environment, and service. We found this place randomly and will definitely make the trip from Vancouver again. The wings are top notch, the honey on the pizza is a pleasant twist, and the pizza is great. You won’t be disappointed.“

“My omni friend told me JUNE is great and that we needed to go. We ordered the BBQ pulled "pork" sando with side salads, the gobi drumsticks, and the lemon custard. Everything was fantastic. The staff were attentive and all around lovely as well. We'll be returning soon!“

“Very good food. Enjoyed very much!“

“had the acacia bowl! fantastic!“

“Fast and Healthy with great taste and team members.“

“Sorbu’s food tonight brought me back to my hometown, Livorno. Perfect rendition of the classic “5 e 5 con le melanzane” like you can find in the streets of Livorno, and a Porchetta sandwich as it could have been served by a legendary paninoteca from my youth (the salsa verde is the real deal). We’ll be back! Thanks to fellow Tuscan-Portlander for the recommendation!“

“We did not try the Pho, but what we ordered was legit. Bo Kho, thit Kho, and their fish sauce wings are excellent. Like mom's cooking and close to home taste.“

“So many good things at this restaurant. So far, all the things I have tasted are so amazing. The BBQ Chicken Pizza, The Elden Burger, Cajun Tots, House Side Salad, Bourbon Glazed Wings and the Guiness on tap. All of these items I can say are superb. I have now been here three days in a row. I can't say I have done the same for any restaurant ever. Except for when I worked in one, but I didn't enjoy it as much as this place. They seem to be doing a lot of things very right so far. Keep it up!“

“I had the BBQ burger, fries, and a soda. It came in at ~$20 with a tip. You place an order at a digital kiosk on arrival.

The bun and burger dressings (fried onions, jalapeños, bacon) were quite good, as was the bun. The patty, which feels machine-made, was a little disappointing. For the price, I'd expect something hand formed. While the webpage states it is grilled medium, mine was well-done.

Fries were great, despite being served with about a tablespoon of ketchup.

The atmosphere is fast casual. The water station was empty when I arrived, as was the napkin dispenser at my table.

I plan to give this place another shot. if their salads are serviceable, and some of the issue above are addressed, I could see this being a regular spot.“

“Food was of the highest quality. Staff was attentive and caring. Atmosphere was that of a family establishment. Not too loud, but also not quiet.

Parking: Enough for a full house and then some.

Kid-friendliness: Family business

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking with ramp and wide doors.“

“Bar Loon is nothing short of fantastic! The service, the food, the cocktails, and the space are truly lovely. It has easily become one of my favorite spots in Portland and a great place to bring folks to shake things up a bit. I can't wait to see what they have in store as they settle into such a beloved space.“

“What a great addition to the neighborhood!

A place to get a proper cocktail in our village. Everything we tried we loved & their namesake drink “the Gibson” is highly recommended.

Ambience & quality all 10/10 stars“

“Alpenrausch is a charming gem, perfect for a cozy evening. Their fondue is simply exquisite—rich, creamy, and indulgent, served with the tastiest accompaniments. It's a must-try for anyone seeking an authentic Alpine dining experience.“

“Absolutely incredible dining experience at Laangban. Loved to have been able to experience Southern Thailand flavor in this fine dining restaurant. The vibes here are ultra cool and every member of the staff was so knowledgeable about the dishes and so friendly that we felt really comfortable eating here. You will leave full!! And each dish packed so much flavor. Fan favorites for us were the fried soft shell crab salad, pork dumplings, and shrimp relish.
Will definitely have to come back in the future“

“Our first time eating there. Enjoyed the variety of bowl and sushi options with everything SO tasty!! We will definitely be back!!“
