50 Best American Restaurants near Sherwood

“The food is consistently great, and the outdoor seating is such a nice touch. The service, however, is why I will always come back. I am a single father to a one year old, and they are always so accommodating, helpful, and welcoming to both of us.“

“BECAUSE THEY HELP THE COMMUNITY...“

“Great food, amazing staff and events including live music. Incredible bar.“

“Love Deb and this place! It’s like the local cheers 🥂“

“I have been going to Tree's for at least two years and love this restaurant! I don't understand why it isn't busier as the food is great; large portions and reasonably priced. Wait staff always friendly and the atmosphere is more upscale than fast casual dining; definitely a step up which is hard to find in Sherwood. The outdoor patio is perfect; lots of shade on a hot summer day. I urge you to give it a try as truly a gem amongst the trees.“

“This chain on Pubs, breweries, historical Inns and quirky events are a one of a kind place. 60 plus locations are all unique in character, but you always know you are at a McMenamins by the decor of each is different but with a similar theme. Mostly the same menu as a whole but individual items specifically to that location' menu changes quarterly.
Sherwood location is a heavily forest feel with lots of wood booths. Always very happy and friendly staff and a very comfortable feel about it. Z little like a British pub this one.
If you have never experienced a McMenamins you need to just do it. You will not be sorry“

“Its so nice to have homestyle yummy food. Thanks for sharing your gift. It was awesome… the stuffed mushrooms oh my❤️“

“I've always had decent food here at Bannings. This morning I ordered Pumpkin pancakes.....what a disappointment. The pumpkin batter needed salt added to it and it also could have used a bit more sugar in the batter. The syrup was not real maple syrup but table top ad says, "warm maple syrup," so I expected real maple syrup. It also says, "whipped butter." I asked the waiter about the maple syrup and he told me it was "artificial" maple and argued the fact that the restaurant never said "real" maple syrup. Maybe the butter is whipped margarine...who knows what liberties are taken in menu descriptions. I'm a "real" maple syrup customer.“

“Tried it today! It was good 👍🏼 the service was excellent and the food came out quickly as well.“

“so, just a disclaimer... I HATE waffles. Absolutely cannot stand them. That being said... I just had the Belgian waffle here, with raspberry puree.... and it was SERIOUSLY delicious!!! Perfect texture, slightly nutty flavor, and the puree was to die for!!!!“

“The food was good and the server was amazing. Our server had barley any help or other staff to help her but she did an amazing job with service. The food was your classic diner style food but not bad. The restaurant has a cute bear decor and gift shop area. There is also yummy dessert with a huge menu.“

“Oh my gosh. Such a delicious meal! I got the combination plate and the schnitzel was so flavorful. I've heard good things about the dill soup and it did not disappoint! We finished our meal with eclairs to go.

My boyfriend and I both agreed it'll be hard to try something new because we both loved what we got! Can't wait to back!“

“Me and my wife have been coming in to Davidsons FrostTop since it reopened, and i will have to say the steak bites, potato skins, are fantastic. so far we have yet to have bad food here. I also have had their hamburgers. they let me custom order my hamburger the way I want it. I would recommend stopping in and give them a try. they also have adult drinks which is a nice change. super friendly staff and great atmosphere. we will of course come back.“

“We visited about a month ago to celebrate a milestone in my career. Savannah was our server and she was AMAZING. She was so friendly and went above and beyond to acknowledge my accomplishment. They brought me a card signed by the staff and a really pretty dessert. They better hang on to her! In general the food was amazing and the ambiance was great. We didn't have to wait too long for a table. All in all would go back and recommend to a friend.“

“Lake Oswego delivers flawlessly consistent hospitality and culinary quality in every way, every time. From, greeting to seating through service and dining this team rises to high expectations and it is we the diners who benefit! Special shout-out to Bran for his friendly, well paced, impeccable service. The back of the house team thanks for the perfectly dressed and chilled salads and three grilled salmon orders where every element of the plate was prepared, presented and delivered perfectly. Wonderful experience ending with four team members wishing us well on the way to the exit, a full waiting to be seated entry for many a reason!“

“Water served in repurposed wine glasses, Chandon mimosas for the whole table, the best Oregonian salmon Benedict on the west coast!? This place is the real deal.. def consider a stop for brunch if you’re in the Portland area!“

“My children (plus one of my children girlfriend) absolutely loved going on the rides and experience. It was really great to see the smiles and laughter among them all. The cost was within reason and the place was very clean...even the restrooms room. The staff was very friendly and respectful. I was very impressed by all the staff members and honestly dealing with that many kids in the establishment with out getting stressed they all deserve bonuses.

My children all enjoyed several hours of fun and was very tucked out on the ride back home. Now that's what a parent enjoys to see.

Wish the weather was a little warmer for the outside during the visit because it got colder really quickly when the sun went down.....but it is what it is.

The only issue was there were some not ideal parents who didn't discourage there kids disrespect and aggressive behavior during the gocart rides. One kid was so aggressive that they literally knocking my kid amount other kids gocarts off the road into the tires which the gocart got stuck. Disappointed that the staff didn't kick the trouble maker out of that ride. One mother was pretty shook up when they were dealing with the aggressive kids behavior. I brought up my concerns to the parent on how there child aggressive behavior could harm the other gocart drivers besides themselves. The parent threw a fit and called me racist besides being very vulgar towards me for being a concerned parent decided to tell me that they encourage there child to be above others even if it means pushing people out of the way in life. Granted that's disturbing but that's them and I just dropped the conversation right there because the other parent just had a hateful mentality and wouldn't talk with out trying to argue. Wasn't worth it. Numerous other parents besides myself decided to simply avoid the troubled family and bring up to staff if it becomes an issue.

Besides the troubled family the experience was over all good. I would take my family to this place again. Just keep in mind that some kids and even parents might behave like the one I and the other familes dealt with. I don't think it's common but just be aware of it.“

“Highly recommend. Best food in Portland! Great staff.“

“Stripes Restaurant was a small food stall on the second floor of the mall in the food court. It sells cheeseburgers, fries, grilled cheese, and chicken strips. I got two medium cheeseburger combos for my little brother and sister, which were about $13 each.“

“We had a fabulous dinner last night at the Vintage Room. The views were stunning. Our server, Mariah, was THEE best. Food was delicious, loved the variety of options. Drinks were great. And dessert was super yummy. Thanks for making my boyfriends birthday special, we can’t wait to start making this a regular date night spot.“

“Maybe not the best value food wise, but the fact that they have so many options (where else can you get bibimbap and Al pastor tacos) and always good coffee makes it great. But the best part is always the cashier! Always proud to show her latte art even if it’s in a togo cup!“

“Friendly atmosphere food is always good service is prompt. Has a Cheers type feel.“

“This was sooooo good! We got the mac and cheese and chicken!! The portions were large too!! I highly recommend. We went on a Saturday evening, so we had a long wait (one guy working), but it was worth the wait. (Next time, I'll order, run an errand and come back.) The owner was busting his butt and quite friendly. Overall, really great!“

“The best place for milkshakes, fries, and wings!“

“Wonderful restaurant, the staff is very nice and welcoming. Food was amazinghats off to all the chefs they know how to do it right. Great team you have. Will be back very soon“

“I come to this particular Black Bear every year because it is the one nearest to the hotel nearest to where my dad lives. I go to a Black Bear Diner pretty often, and this one is up to the same high standards as basically all the others I've visited. This visit, however, was not to see my dad but to go to his funeral. It was a really rough day today. I could hardly leave the hotel room. But when I did, and I sat there just reading for a bit over a hamburger, listening to nothing in particular, my waiter was very helpful and attentive despite there seeming to be a lot of people and not enough waiters. He had no way of knowing that today was one of the hardest days in my life. He was kind, attentive, and engaged me in a brief conversation in a natural way without it being forced. I sat for a bit after my meal and had refills for another half hour, until just after closing time. My waiter's name is Ethan. Melissa told me that while she wasn't the manager, I should put a review up online so that my compliment gets back to him. I don't know if I will be back here any time soon. If I am, I will hope to see Ethan, who just did his job and who was genuine.“

“Celebrated my 33rd Wedding Anniversary with my spouse on 8/7/25. We ordered two braised beef sandwiches, a summer special, with a side of chips, the shrimp arugula salad split for two, AND the tasty, but not too sweet bread pudding!!!! OMG😋Soooo DELICIOUS. I gave all of it a 10/10 and will definitely be back to try more food items!!
Caitlin was our server and did a nice job waiting on us and telling us about the Marketplace Cafe!! It is truly a hidden surprise that is WORTH checking out!!!“

“Good place and consistent. However this last time I ordered a wrapped hot and jazzy with chicken. Guy asked if I needed a fork and I said no, it’s a wrap and I’ll use my hands. Then I get this thing! Still tastey but what even is this? Lol“

“This was our first time here and certainly won't be the last. The ambiance, service and cuisine made for a marvelous evening. We enjoyed decadent salads (Swiss Chef and Beets with gorgonzola) The dessert was divine, and like our salads, the portions were generous and the quality of ingredients were excellent. We feasted on a double berry tart a la mode. its presentation was photo worthy. All food had an artistic presentation. We were so impressed 👏“

“We sat in the bar and bartender was great but definitely needed help. He had every table full and then a big party(20) people waiting for their table getting drinks…I realize it’s hard to find people to work but you really need two people working in the bar. Thankfully we were patient and didn’t mind, but other people wouldn’t have been. Also the host took his time clearing a table for us…. He visited with another gal doing to go orders for 10 min. Before he cleared a table for us“

“The food is amazing. Workers were friendly and helpful. I just thought the portions were small for what you pay for but I understand it's a quality versus quantity choice. If the large bowl was a bit bigger I would go here multiple times a week.

Also they are very accommodating if you can't eat dairy/egg/meat.“

“Food is fantastic. Taco’s are to die for. Burritos are on point. You won’t regret the visit.“

“very professional when dealing with clout chasing rage baiters.“

“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“

“Cool little place.. great food & people..“

“This place has the friendliest staff around! And great drinks to boot....“

“It's a great little club located at the Holiday Inn Wilsonville ore IDJ on the weekends come join me. #djflyin“

“Food was filling and tasted great. I honestly didn’t think I’d be full, but I was. Service was good, just a bit slower since it was really crowded on the weekend. They have lots of food options, the atmosphere is nice, and I really like the building. Definitely recommend checking it out if you haven’t been yet.“

“I always enjoy Oswego Grill. I brought my friend and her teenage daughter there. My friend was celebrating her 65th Birthday. The meal was great and the Farrell's Banana Split was a special birthday treat! The only ding in my mind is how dark it is inside - day or evening. Otherwise, it's often my go-to for a nice lunch, dinner, or happy hour when I'm in the Lake Oswego area.“
