50 Best Salad Restaurants near Milwaukie

“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.“

“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!!“

“Very very good spot. Almost a cool little PDX food speakeasy. Excellent service and wine list (growers bubbles). Most dishes we ONPOINT the rabbit confit crape is one of the better dishes I've had this year. One dish fell short (cabbage) but overall this is a very solid spot that I will be delighted to go to multiple times.“

“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!“

“I am Korean and this place is the best Korean restaurant I have visited in Portland/Beaverton area so far. We had Ssam with meat, Hot stone bibimbap and other stuff. We ordered a lot and are the most of it. Everything was good and kids enjoyed a lot as well. I usually cook Korean food at home but would definitely go back with family.“

“We have been ordering from Oregon City India Grill at least once a month for close to a year and have dined in and enjoyed the buffet. The food is consistently delicious and very reasonably priced for the portions. Best of all, every employee I've interacted with has been incredibly kind, generous, and clearly delights in making customers happy. We feel so spoiled every time we stop in to pick up our take out!“

“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!“

“Lunch pasta dishes were yummy and generous portions“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“This location was discovered through Resy and offered a remarkable experience right from the start. The customer service was impressive, and the food was particularly noteworthy for its excellent flavor. Additionally, the ambiance created a pleasant atmosphere, and our server (George) provided outstanding service throughout the visit.“

“A fantastic experience from start to finish. Staff are so kind and informative. The wine pairing is thoughtfully designed, cocktails are fun and delicious, and the food is always innovative and delectable. It is a special experience to sit at the chefs counter to see the kitchen in action and the beautiful dishes being artfully plated.“

“Very good food. Enjoyed very much!“

“Surprised the cost was more than Eugene.“

“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!“

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

“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. :)“

“Food was great. Our server was extremely friendly and inviting from the moment we sat down to after we left. The restaurant is quiet, cozy and beautifully decorated. We brought our kids and they even loved the food. I was just surprised how empty it was for a Saturday brunch. Would definitely go again and try their dinner menu.“

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

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

“The food was delicious! I never say that about restaurants, but I want everyone to know about Ruk Diew Cafe! the food was fresh ND so good. the coconut prawns were tender and flavorful, the fried tofu was crispy and the sauce yummy. I think I had green mango in a lovely sauce with red peppers. I am a happy diner.“

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

“Loved it so much, I made a TikTok montage, because I'm corny like that, but that sandwich. 💯👏🏾😎“

“Amazing Salad - highly Recommend! I was going out of town and wanting to have a meal on the healthier side but also filling. I choose the Build your own salad & it was a ton of food & so delicious! That staff were very friendly and helpful with all the selections; there were a ton! So good!!“

“Eldens has a great atmosphere with friendly staff and delicious food! ( their beet salad and homemade chicken noodle soup is amazing!)“

“I want to start with saying the people there were really really nice I didn't have service because I ordered my shrimp cocktail to go but I have to say I wasn't crazy about the cocktail sauce if you can call it that. It was more like water All the other food that I saw people eating looked really good. I'm not saying I wouldn't eat there again but I know I won't order the shrimp cocktail. Thankfully I had cocktail sauce at home that I added to it but the shrimp and avocado were good“

“Delicious. Syrian/Lebanese - the flavors were smoother/softer than I’m used to. The pita was soft, closer to a fluffy flour tortilla, and the sandwiches we had that came in a pita were actually wrapped in a trifolded pita and pressed like a panini. The felafel were big and delicious. The baklava was in a orange blossom syrup and was perfect. The service was personable and on point. It’s on an active block of N Williams, so it’s a fun area to walk around before/after. Highly recommended.“

“I love City Thai soooo much!! Hands down my favorite Thai food in the city. Always good, always fresh, always smiling faces! I just got my 42nd order (just guessing) to-go and it's just as good as the first!! Do yourself a favor, and order the 'Oh My God Rolls' you can thank me later ;)“

“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.“

“had the acacia bowl! fantastic!“

“My wife and I love that we have a neighborhood bar with wonderful and well crafted cocktails, solid food menu, and excellent, skilled service.
On a summer night we went and tried 6 different cocktails of their cocktails and each one was more impressive than the last. They regularly rotate their drink menu, demonstrating their skill and diversity in making a good drink! Would recommend, will return!“
