50 Best Salad Restaurants near Lake Oswego

“Wow! Madalyn and Jeffery behind the bar is something magical. I’ve never felt more welcomed anywhere else in my life. Between the food and the drinks their electric energy really made the whole experience.
And Gavin was awesome!!“

“Normally I have a great experience. Except for one waiter one time. Heavier set Caucasian guy. I want to say his name was nate or something.

TIM is always on point. Best waiter ever!!!

This last time we went. We ate all got sick to our stomachs lastnight. My son, missed school today cause of it. We all got massively sick.“

“This review is mainly for the one guy at the cashier who worked there tonight, (soul patch, dark hair?) I should have glanced at his name tag 😔 but anyways, I ordered a chicken club with side salad, and he sent one of his coworkers to the store to get some fresh avacados, because the ones they had were hard as a rock. I appreciated that alone, but when his coworker came back with more rock hard avacados (lol) he still made it right and I still got my delicious sandwich. Super appreciated him going all out to make sure my sandwich was perfect!“

“Consistently great food, good prices, good portions, and friendly faces.

Don't sleep on the sandwiches. They are made with just the right proportion of ingredients and some sort of secret sauce that ties everything together. Great sandwiches.“

“What a marvelous place for our neighborhood“

“I love Chick-fil-A.. this location often has a hard time keeping up with cleaning the tables and I find it annoying to try to find someone to clean up a table. Just leave the wipes out if you can't stay on top of it IMHO. Not enough booths. Some booths are high tops But WHY - what about your elderly customers?“

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

“We are so grateful for the staff accommodating us bringing our infant. We were concerned that we would have to give up dining out at nice restaurants, but the staff was so welcoming of us with our infant. They found a table for us where we could easily sit down her car seat, and as a result, we were able to dine out while she slept peacefully.“

“Yum!! On our last visit to Portland we stopped at The Minnow for lunch. We had the miso sesame noodles and the squash ramen. So delicious! It was just what we needed on a rainy Portland day. And I love that they source ingredients from local farms and makers. You can really taste the passion and attention to detail. We’ll definitely come back next time!“

“Legitimately some of the best pizza I've had in Portland, and that's coming from someone who's been to almost all of the heavy-hitters in town. Tastes obviously vary, but I don't think anyone who likes wood-fired pizza will leave disappointed.
We started with the fresh baked palloncino bread, which was warm & delightfully chewy with a subtle lemony bite. However, it was super salty (and I say this a habitual over-salter). Thankfully the flaky finishing salt was easy to brush off, which tamed the saltiness. We also had the Belgian endive caesar. The crisp endive mixed well with the creamy dressing & the croutons were out of this world (not shocking, really).
For pizzas, we had the leek & hazelnut and the salami supremo. While the cheese and toppings were top notch, the doughy crust was the star. Perfectly charred, yet soft and chewy. Just excellent.
The tiramisu we had for dessert was also very light and dare I say refreshing.
Service was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere left something to be desired, but wasn't bad & didn't diminish the experience at all. Just maybe not quite up to par with other places in that price range.
Overall, a great experience. I will certainly be back!“

“The restaurant is spacious and the service was good. Our group of five shared several dishes, and it came out to almost $30 per person. The seafood pancake and kimchi stew were both tasty. The meat portions felt a bit on the smaller side, but the variety of banchan was great and they were enjoyable as well. Overall, a pleasant dining experience.“

“The spicy Chicken burger was AMAZING! I also go the Abalcore Tuna burger, but it needs a change on the buns. The texture throws off the enjoyment and flavor of the burger as tou eat it. Should replace it with a crispy rice bun with seaweed which will help compensate the seared fish burger. Too much sauce also makes the bun become too soggy.“

“Great Indian food and nice people to help you and assist you with choosing the right food. It was buffet style.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food“

“I like everything about this restaurant! The food was fresh, healthy and it was a fair price. I liked the help and the clientele and the general atmosphere. I'll be back!!“

“Astera is, without question, the best dining experience I’ve ever had. From the moment the evening began, it was clear that this was not just a meal, but a thoughtfully curated experience rooted in passion, artistry, and deep respect for food and hospitality.
The food was stunning, both in flavor and presentation, with each dish carefully explained by the staff, from its ingredients to how it was prepared. The service was exceptional, with the team moving together seamlessly and sharing the history of the owner and his passion, which clearly resonated through every staff member. The ambiance was delicate and relaxing, perfectly complementing the experience.“

“Vegan noodles and tea leaf salad need work. I was disappointed by them especially for the price point. Noodles were just noodles, a little bok choy and mushrooms. Looked like something I would cook myself when I was running out of groceries. Carrot salad and beef curry were great though!“

“Had a fabulous dinner here! The venison special was better than any steak I’ve ever had, and dessert was just as incredible. A true gem worth supporting!“

“Lunch pasta dishes were yummy and generous portions“

“Went for lunch to sister restaurant that serves a wonderfully fresh and inventive Thai street food menu. Came back for 9 course prix fixe dinner & great bottle of wine instead of wine pairing. Food is plated beautifully. Service is excellent, friendly and well timed. Dishes entice you from first whiff to last bite. Favorites included Hokkaido Scallop in coconut cream sauce, which wowed us with smoky Thai herbs commanding the sweet and savory flavors. My wife enjoyed the short ribs cured in anchovy paste with beets & radish. We both slurped down the deconstructed Tom Kha, elevated by adding fresh ora King Salmon and combining with wild cordyceps mushrooms.“

“Really delicious salad. You can choose the premise or choose your own sides and dressings.“

“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!“

“Let's put another five star review on the boards! If you ever suffer the Injustice of visiting Swan Island you can totally compensate for that by eating these taquitos. If you are a foodie who likes taquitos it's worth up to a 4-mile drive. The taquitos only come in orders of four and you must choose all one Style. All the taquitos have potato inside and the meat options are served as a giant pile on top. Their well made, crunchy, clean tasting, and have just the right toppings on them.

Update, excellent beer battered fish tacos too!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Honestly, one of the best burgers I ever had. The only thing I hate it was that you have to do everything on the screen instead of the staff helping you. the lemonade has a lot of sugar. It could be better other than that it’s a great place to eat.“

“We were there for the first time on the evening of January 10, 2026. We sat at the bar for a bit because we were a little early for our reservation. Michelle brought us a couple of beers and we ordered a plate of six oysters. She chatted cheerfully with us while she busily poured drinks for others and then introduced us to her two sons and a son’s girlfriend, who all also work there. Everyone was so friendly and kind! When our table was ready, Michelle thanked us for being there and said that it was great to meet us. At our table, we ordered another half dozen oysters, a caesar salad, a couple more beers, and two big bowls of cioppino. Absolutely delicious with the large, thick slices of freshly-made garlic bread for dunking. This place is a true gem. Four generation of family working there and their love for the place and what they do shows. Can’t wait to go back!!“

“very delicious food and even better service.“

“The best pizza I have had in a LONG time!! ❤️ 🍕“

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

“I've. eaten all over Southeast Asia including street amrt I've eaten at many Southeast Asian restaurants, including in Cambodia, Malaysia and Laos, and can unequivocally say this is one of the best meals I've ever had. Starters to dessert, the food was unique, inspired and full of multiple flavors. Bravo and five stars!“

“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.“

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

“Had a burrito today it was amazing can’t wait to have another one and try out there tacos“

“This place is a special gem for those of us that love food and wonderful company. The food is consistently fantastic, great experience eating at the convenient location and with takeout, and the owners are generous with their warmth, humor and care. Visiting friends & family always love it, as well.
A favorite place for sure!“

“This was our first time here and we were truly impressed. The hostess was awesome, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was perfect. There's outside seating as well. I had the hand breaded chicken stripes y husband had fish and chips. Three breading was the best I've ever had and the chicken was tender and juicy. The prices are average for this area. They have a happy hour menu for Sun-Thurs that's for lots of choices. We will definitely return.“

“Very good food. Enjoyed very much!“

“Surprised the cost was more than Eugene.“

“The food was good--the burger wasn't anything special but very tasty and the salad dressing and dipping sauce for the drumsticks were a bit weird. I tried two cocktails, one was great and one was meh but overall the drink menu looked very good as well. If I'm in the area, I'll stop by but not someplace I'm eager to go out of my way to visit.“

“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!“

“Amazing food! We did the 7 course option and it turned out wonderful. The staff is sooo super friendly and knowledgeable about everything. Can’t wait to go back next time we’re in Portland. Also holds a special place in my heart since we got engaged there. :)“

“Good food. Great location. Good prices. Worth the visit“

“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!!“

“Came for some bites to eat, and a date night drink. Great ambiance and food. Lovely bartenders except they were the weakest drinks I've had in town. I'm not a big drinker. One is usually my limit, 2 for big nights out. I'm a serious lightweight but I couldn't taste the anything but lime juice in my margarita. I have a hard time with a lot of citrus so gave it to my hubby and he asked if there was any tequilla in it. Then I ordered a vodka/soda instead. Again, just tasted like soda water and ice. Worth a 2nd try, but we were disappointed.“

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

“Awesome!! So good. Excellent flavors and staff!!“

“My favorite vegan pizza in Portland. Try the cheeseburger pizza.“
