42 Best American Restaurants near North Plains

“Stopped in Thanksgiving after spending some time in the woods. Excellent hospitality and friendly folk. Clean establishment as well. Good prices on drinks too. 5 stars all around from the environment, staff and crowd. Good find here in North Plains. Football on TV as well.“

“We really like this hole in the wall type pub. The staff was extremely welcoming, unlike the bar next door. The food is surprisingly good! The owner really cares about the family legacy. I highly recommend this neighborhood watering hole. The other two bars which are nearby really sucked, which makes Rogue pub shine all the brighter.“

“My handsome husband and I absolutely ADORE this new find for us. I’ve lived in Aloha 20+ years and this place is exactly what I want in a neighborhood hangout, but have never seen until tonight. First thing in the door we were greeted, welcomed, told about the menu and invited to sit wherever we liked! Talk about feeling welcomed and immediate hospitality! The atmosphere was also fantastic—subdued and relaxing with agreeable lighting. But the cocktails were ABSOLUTELY EPIC! We had our socks knocked off by the flavor and variety of the cocktails, and then the presentation was just so incredibly appealing to boot! Fresh herbs (rosemary) in one drink, dried herbs (lavender) in another made the drinks delicious AND visually stunning to behold. Prices were very reasonable, so we will be coming back again and again to sample absolutely everything! 10/10 and we’ll be singing the praises of The 649 to absolutely everybody we know!“

“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. ❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“A nice cozy spot. Food is always consistent, as is the service. All McMenamins have a unique vibe and this location is one of my favorites. Whether cozying up by the fire in the winter or sitting outside in the summer, anytime is a great time to stop in for a burger and a drink. Love the vegan Mystic Burger and the house made mystic sauce. I used to love the cajun tots but for some reason all locations have just become so stingy with the spices I just order them regular now because there isn't much of a difference but I still enjoy them.“

“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.“

“Really good food, very friendly staff, and really good managers, I definitely recommend Stanford’s in Tanasbourne , everyone needs to come in and try it if you haven’t yet, I recommend the fried calamari and the chimichurri steak tips, they are really really good, save space for dessert and try the chocolate mousse, and make sure to try out the drinks the way is made is all fresh made juices, so if you are in the area make sure to stop by at Stanford’s in Tanasbourne, you will not be disappointed.“

“Came in on the way home from bed ng out and about with my son and stopped in for a hot chocolate for my little three year old. The service was wonderful, the ladies working were so kind (and I apologize my son is learning the difference between sir and ma'am) I'm pretty sure you gave me a discount and made it 99¢ and honestly it made my night. You never know the difference you make in others lives and as a single mom I don't get to treat myself or my son to nice things often so it means a lot you did that for us.“

“We had a fun dinner here watching an amazing local band in an outdoor seating area. Service was top-notch. The food was delicious. We will definitely be coming back. The bar had lots of games and a TV screen that showed the band playing outside. Great drinks and friendly bartenders. Lots of free parking all around the building.“

“We had the chicken fried steak dinner with good mashed potatoes. The only thing I would say negative is the gravy for my liking should have been a hotter temperature. But that being said the service was so good I'm sure if I would have asked to have the gravy zapped in the microwave it would have been done asap without any issue.“

“We stopped here for lunch and loved it. Great fish tacos and a good margarita. We came back a second time for lunch and the food wasn't quite as good, but still a nice meal. We went for breakfast our last day in town and was not impressed. I'm told they're famous for their breakfast, so maybe we just made bad choices. I had the corned beef hash and it had very little flavor and was quite chewy. One of my poached eggs was good, the other overcooked. My husband had Sammy's scramble, which was mostly hash browns. Huge portions if that's a consideration, but I left most of mine. Might go back there again for the fish taco if I were in town.“

“I loved!Everything we ordered was exquisite from the fried calamari and nachos with cheese and spinach appetizers to the meat and shrimp bowl.This was a recommendation from an acquaintance who worked there and wow we loved it! We have actually visited several restaurants in Oregon but there are few that have excellent service.The only recommendation I would make is to hire a bilingual person who can recommend the dishes to Spanish-speaking people who are passing through.“

“not a fan of onion rings, but these are DELICIOUS!!!! The burger buns were perfectly toasted, love that char-broil taste ❤️ the only thing that was missing was a jukebox, but those are hard to come by anyway so it's cool!!! Music was perfect of course“

“We arrived at 10:30 PM and were soon attended to by a friendly young woman who efficiently saw to the frequent needs of all 20 of us customers. Piping hot and scratch made tenders and calamari were plated and delivered within 5 minutes of ordering each time. I could not leave without complaining the young woman and the kitchen!“

“Normally, when finding a spot like this, I would keep my mouth shut because I don't want it packed, but that would be unfair....Good food. We had the combo meal with brisket and burnt ends. Burnt ends were cooked perfectly and tasted good with and without bbq sauce. The brisket was amazing. Trying to think of a brisket I have had that was that moist. Was good with and without bbq sauce. We had salad and sweet potato fries as our sides. The salad was fresh and crispy, and the fries were not greasy or limpy.Will definitely go back to try other things that we did not try.Loved the layout and music. Everything was clean and well maintained .We have a new place for bbq and other things on the west side of the Portland area!“

“Tucked around the corner and through the bushes, from the Mcmenamins Roadhouse, this place can be easy to walk past. Signage for the co-establishment is sub par, but just ask the staff and they will point you. I would recommend this place for any after work gathering. Whiskey bar with cigar offerings and plenty of outside seating. You can even eat from a condensed menu via the Roadhouse kitchen.“

“I had a job in the area and needed to kill some time. I am a huge golf fan so I thought let me try Topgolf. It was great I enjoyed watching the golfers while I had a little snack and some tea. The staff was awesome they were patient and kind and quick. I also learned more about the appParking: Plenty of spaces, Handicap spots in front. Lots of parking. There is also a drop off location.Kid-friendliness: A great place to take the little ones. Especially if they like golfWheelchair accessibility: There is plenty of accessibility for wheelchairs. So much room.“

“The salmon chowder was fresh, well balanced, and just down right amazing. The chicken marsala was also perfectly cooked and extremely flavorful which can't be matched locally so far. We also had the braised beef which was packed with vibrant flavors that made it rich and delightful to the last spoon full. But it wasn't just the food that did it, the entire atmosphere was amazing and I highly suggest visiting them for a warm and inviting atmosphere.“

“Our waitress went above and beyond what she had to do for us. I don't like spicy rubs or foods, and the taco seasoning they use on their ground beef for nachos is too spicy for me, and she totally let me pick something else and took it off our bill! Definitely tipped her incredibly well, and I will definitely be going back again soon!Wheelchair accessibility: They do have a wheelchair ramp.“

“This cute little place feels like it's just begging to be one of my new favorites! Played a chill game of pool and got a Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza, which was very tasty and generously piled high with toppings.Chatted with a couple of the friendly local regulars and hung out for awhile. Looking forward to coming back again!“

“Great little pub. The fish and chips were great and filling. The place was busy but not overly noisy. Since it was Saturday, the televisions were tuned into a variety of football games and one screen entertained with a trivia game. We will definitely visit again.“

“OMG, SO good! It isn’t often I run across a restaurant menu where I want to try everything. But, alas, I live an hour away, so I'll have to find excuses to come up this way again.Parking: The dentist's parking isnt well marked.“

“Our kids gave us a gift card for Christmas so this was our first time going to hops n drops. We weren’t sure what to expect and were pleasantly surprised. Our waitress, Erica, was so friendly and attentive. Our drinks and food came really fast We’ve never had drinks in ice glasses before, so that was fun. The food was delicious! We will definitely be going back. My hubby is hard to impress, and he was raving about this place!“

“We had my husbands 54th birthday there this evening. I reserved a place for 30 people. We ended up having a little bit more than 30. We were all loud, kids running feral and changing seats a lot. I can’t remember our waitresses name, but she was absolutely amazing! Super friendly and she handled our crazy crowd like a breeze! The staff here needs a raise for sure! Thank you so much for being patient with us and so accommodating! Oh! And like always, the food was outstanding!“

“Well this is awkward. My doctor's office is over by this location of Insomnia. I'd pretty much written off buying their drinks because they weren't even tasting like what I recalled. But I stopped here, went through the drive thru, and ordered my favorite Insomnia beverage. Black Forest Mocha with 6 shots, Oatmilk and no whip. Well first off, the staff (both times I visited last week,) was kind and very friendly. I also didn't wait long at all for my coffee. But WEIRD my coffee was $2 less here than at the Murray Hill location. Guess I just have to drive a bit farther for good service and coffee because they're a 5/5 and the other location right by my house is a 2/5.“

“Lively setting with axe throwing in the background. We came to watch and see how it was done. Burger was juicy and super flavorful but wish the sweet potato flies had still been warm. Our server had a great sense of humor and was just the right amount of attentive in spite of have to hustle among a bunch of tables.“

“The food is great, I had an off menu wrap. The service is amazing, everyone keeps their attitude at home, nothing but cheerful employees here trying to help you to the best of their abilities. The atmosphere would be five stars as well but it is a bowling alley and can get quite noisy. That's the only reason for a 4 star review for atmosphere. Other than that the patrons are very friendly as well. If you're waiting on a movie across the street, looking for a great date idea, or just board looking for some time to kill, then this is a great suggestion. Besides a bowling alley it's also an arcade that gives you tickets that you can cash in for prizes. Granted the prizes are geared towards children, there's still some stuff there that would be a great idea for a first date prize. Highly recommend this place and will stop by again if I'm ever in the area“

“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!“

“It had been at least 20 years since I had been here so I decided tonight to go in and give it a try. The main restaurant had one other couple, otherwise was empty. Tons of people in the bar on the slot machines. The restaurant itself hasn’t changed a bit, if you want to step back in time some 30-40 years you’ll get that experience in this restaurant. A remodel would really help to bring things up to date but considering how slow it was in a Friday night I can imagine why it hasn’t happened. Our waiter didn’t have the best English but she did her best and was very timely with things. The food wasn’t anything special but for what it was it was very good. Our bill at the end was hand written, not something you see much of anymore. Overall I’d probably go back again.Parking: Difficult parking during daytime due to DMV traffic but otherwise open if DMV is closed.“

“Our server Michael in the Hillsboro oregon location was so awesome he was on fire had our drinks n appetizer ready in minutes he was kind made us smile he knew about the menu n drinks had a great recommendation for us with food n drink it was insane how great everything was food drink but our serve Michael was insane how well we were taken care of we will be back with ourselves n family n friends our new favorite place had a 2 wonderful prime rib dinners with soup salad n dessert n xtra sides at such a great price n great food but again our server Michael was amazing super awesome“

“A rare find in Hillsboro. Diverse menu, mellow atmosphere, overlooking the golf course and trees. Prices surprisingly affordable. High quality fresh salads, sandwiches, entrees. Mellow music. Great for lunch on a rainy Oregon day. Thoroughly enjoyed this place. Will return for dinner next.“

“One of the best spots in Beaverton. Great people, friendly atmosphere, good food and drink. I love the slots here. ? Fun spot where the drinks are flowing, the grill is smoking and there’s always fun sexy people to talk to. The door guy rules, you won’t find a better more solid dude around. Come hang out, meet someone new and cheer up your week ?“

“My friend likes the place because he and eife have gone many times before. It's a local hangout. It was my first time. The food was very good. Hot of the grill and out of the fryer. It was served with a nice large side portion. They employees didn't know us as regulars, so I understand why they were acting the usual stand-off'ish.“

“Located inside the Embassy Suites. This a nice restaurant to relax in at the end of the day. Nice variety on the menu. Salads were fresh and quite large...easily serving 2 people. The butternut squash soup was really good. Taysia, the server, was very pleasant.“

“Friendly local sports bar. Above average food w/ great specials! One of the few places of its kind that has halibut fish and chips. Service is very good. As expected the noise level can be high in the evening, but they do have a quieter booth area away from the bar if you want.“

“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.“

“Great food and great service always nice to eat here. Wouldn't recommending the cheesecake waffle it was sort of nasty. Other than that everything else was great. But I do believe that the little drinks are overpriced for how small they are.Parking: The parking lot is not that big but there is parking in front of this diner.Wheelchair accessibility: There is handicap parking and ramps for wheelchairs.“

“A great beer hall vibe with friendly employees. Solid beer selection. Food was tasty and came out fairly quickly. Bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers were delicious. Large tables down the center great for bigger groups. Will continue to visit when I Forest Grove.Parking: Plenty of free street parking withing a block or two every time I've been.“

“Good food, a bit spendy, but they don't put a tip option when you pay. That's huge for me, I hate tip culture and would much rather pay more. They also bus the tables for you, and leave you alone if you want to sit there and chat for a long time. Love “

“Lot’s of options for bar food. Probably one of the best in a 1 mile radius.Their basic American no frills cheeseburger loaded with standard options is unbeatable. And you get your choice of cheeses. It doesn’t seem to matter who is in the back cooking, quality/delicious every time!!! The kitchen always delivers!!!Going on 8 months since I found this hidden gem. The always pleasant staff is what brings me back food is a bonus.Side note: One of the few places with three or four Fort George brews on tap all the time.“

“Used to work there when Mike and Judy owned the place. It was probably the funnest job I had until I moved back to Alaska and started my own businesses. O’Brien’s was always a great place to meet with friends. I always stop in when I travel through that area.“
