Restaurants near Oak Grove

“My wife brought me here for my 70th birthday. She asked, "where would you like to go?" "Surprise me.", I told her. Oh my! My grandmother from Puebla, Mexico would have loved this place. The tortillas were fresh, Handmade! I ordered the Pozole. Oh so rich and fragrant and bustling with pork, hominy and a very wonderful broth. Did I mention the tortillas?? Oh Lord!! I plan to bring my three adult children here for my son's birthday. I plan to eat my way through the menu, over the course of the next year or so. I can see that there are many others who love this place. The entire time we were having dinner, there was a steady stream of people coming in for takeout. Yep, this is a gem of a restaurant. Come enjoy.”

“I love this place! I could get a cup of coffee anywhere but this shop has become more than just great food and drinks - it’s a place for neighbors to gather and the owners have fully invested themselves in our community. Love the breakfast sandwiches, my daily coffee and Friday evenings on their back lawn with a beer and friends!”

“Mudd coffee is roasted locally by Marco (1/2 Pint Cafe), and Local Coffee makes a jazzy Nutella mocha that is soo sweet! Love it! The Mexican mocha is also delicious! Remember to use your Fred Meyer gas receipt for $1 off. --- frugal kugal”

“Extraordinary ice flavors! Delicious! Great coffee! Very nice people!”

“This is my favorite pizza place, never had a bad experience. Even today, ordered a half n half pizza and got half correct and half cheese only (didn’t order that) they offered to get me a small of what I did order to make up for the incorrect half and I got the small pizza plus my whole order redone! I don’t expect that to be the case on every error, but just another example why this place is the best and I’d rather have them on a bad day than any other pizza on their good days!”

“What a wonderful surprise! This restaurant was recommended by a family member, and we ended up making a reservation for our group of 12 for a birthday dinner. The service was outstanding from the first phone call all the way through to our server wrapping up our leftovers for us. The food was outstanding, generous portions, fresh beautiful vegetables, wonderful flavors. I would absolutely recommend them and hope to visit again next time we’re in the area!”

“What an adorable hidden gem! Just off McLaughlin Boulevard, this cozy little bar is a must-visit. The bartenders are fantastic, serving up amazing drinks that hit the spot every time. Plus, the patio is a blast with a giant Jenga set—perfect for a fun, laid-back evening!”

“Food is terrible! Burnt bread on my sandwich and overcooked fried food.”

“They have the best Mexican Food on McGlouphlin blvd. Their Taquitos are excellent alond with their homemade Salsa.”

“About 75% of the time they are really good here. Foods usually fresh. Once in a while tho Im disappointed.. my last visit I got a 3 piece tender meal and one out of the three pieces I got was smaller than my finger and the other two weren't much bigger. Wish I would have checked before I left but I feel like they didn't really use their heads on that order and maybe just threw an extra piece in to compensate for the small pieces. I only got a 3 piece meal cause usually that should have been enough to fill me up but I was still a bit hungry after that one. this has happened one other time I went to that location but usually isn't an issue for the most part. Gotta start checking my food before I leave now I guess 😮‍💨”

“A funny near not funny thing happened in Starbucks parking lot at this location. I parked my car in the lot across and over a bit from Starbucks. My husband and I got out of the car and started walking towards the door and after a few steps we both took a bit of a dive downwards as the slope was steep and was not obvious. It would have been bad if we didn’t catch ourselves because we could have done a face plant right into the asphalt! OUCH! But maybe someone else might not have been so lucky and might have completed a face plant. Why they didn’t even out the grading is a mystery to me! It’s an accident waiting to happen. BTW, our drinks were fine.”

“Great place to unwind ... machines seem to hit here more often which is good for the pockets ... And between Terri and Mandi the bartender attendants the service is on time an awesome.... Food.Beer.VPoker is a mix of good times and helps the spirits heal from the negative BS ...??”

“Great place. Daily Poker tournaments, pretty good mix of age groups. Very open and handicap accessible. The servers are way chill and engaging. Really love what they've done with it after it being Dominics.”

“Cozy atmosphere. Gentle, attentive service. Honestly, just skip the apps and go straight for the pizza. I had the Pancetta and it was bomb. One pizza is enough for 1-2 people. Do one per person only if you’re really hungry. Take your time! Hopefully they’ll have coffee eventually. For now, just do amaro for digestif and call it a night. All love <3”

“Great date night! We celebrated our first wedding anniversary here last night and every single thing we ordered was excellent. The wine/bubbles list is impressive also.”

“Cute place! I like what they’ve done with the former Woodsman Tavern space. I really enjoyed the French onion soup, and the Parisienne gnocchi was good too. Service was a little slow, but overall, it was a nice experience.”

“Dinner was amazing. Staff was amazing. just AMAZING. My son took me as a surprise while visiting him from FL. Thank you for making this moment for us. 5 star!”

“Phenomenal restaurant. We are vegetarian and had some fantastic options. The chive
Cakes and Hawaiian rolls were my personal favs nut everything we ordered was top notch. Jennifer our server was kind, super on it and gave great recommendations.”

“It was delicious!!! Rabbit, foie gras, pigs feet, escargot, halibut, eel, scallops, all the fancy sauces….SOOO good!! Every bite was just perfectly executed. The staff was so friendly and engaging which made it really fun to sit at the chef’s counter!”

“Great, cozy atmosphere in the upstairs of a cool, older house. We tried the duck confit and the gnocchi, both delicious. They don’t have a bar fyi, so no cocktails. Their wine menu is great and makes up for it.”

“We enjoyed a fun dinner at Lilia Comedor! We appreciated how spices were infused into the innovative Mexican dishes. We chose the Chef’s Dinner which gave us an appreciation for the chef’s creativeness. Loved every bite. Pacing of the meal was just right. The staff were super friendly and also enthusiastic about the restaurant’s cuisine. Would highly recommend if you desire an innovative, colorful, and flavorful dining experience.”

“One of the absolute best restaurants in Portland. Everything is delicious and absolute perfection. Farro pie, agnoloti with chard and tagliatelle with ragu are our favorites. Note There is almost always a wait bc it’s a small place. There is a cute wine bar next door where you can get a glass and appetizer while you wait. We love Luce!”

“Every time I come to Portland, there is an accompanying reservation at Xiao Ye. This place rocks!

First generation American is an incredible way to frame their fusion and approach to food. Dishes are bold, seasonal, and use ingredients in ways one may never expect that lead to incredible bites.

I love seeing the owners at their own place and you will frequently find either or both of them on expo or making rounds in the dining room. All their staff are lovely and hospitable.

When I think of hospitality and good food, I think of Xiao Ye ❤️”

“fresh fish, great taste. Real yummy”

“I went to this place for me and my partners anniversary. I have never been and neither had he. The experience was top notch! I came in and the waiter said he was going to change my life and he did just that. I also had a gift card that had a generous balance and I was so impressed with the service and food that I was embarrassed to use it so I paid out of my own pocket. Best tapas in Portland hands down! My partner usually is the one who picks places because I’m bad at it and he was also incredibly impressed with me and my choice to try Urdaneta!”

“the la María burrito is amazing the salsas are good the coffee is strong and flavourful even though my order came through between morning and afternoon meat prep they had it ready really quickly”

“Looooved this great pizza!”

“Tusk is great. Especially for a nice date night. The food is exquisite and the service is AMAZING.”

“Really delicious, and so happy to have a Japanese sandwich cart in Portland. I loved the Pork katsu!”

“Price is relatively low compared to other omakase in the area but that is no reflection on the quality. There definitely isn't as much wow factor as a place like Nodoguro, however, the chef here has a keen eye for seasonal fresh fish. I never imagined in a million years I would enjoy sardine nigiri but I still think of it months after and will return to seek more seasonal delights. The environment is quite laid-back but it isn't a bad thing. Chef isn't showy but is dedicated to his craft. Fantastic place!”
