The service was friendly, it’s a nice upscale atmosphere, but the food was bad. I’ll give credit where credit is due- the lemon drop martini and classic marg were fabulous. The calamari app was rubbery with soggy breading, flavor so-so. The pepper salmon was presented well but was the worst salmon I’ve had in the PNW. It was overcooked, looked and tasted like a frozen salmon filet bought from Walmart. Our waiter didn’t come around until my husband finished his meal and I wasn’t offered a replacement. The prime rib Philly dip with fries was alright, albeit too salty. It was pretty disappointing but maybe I’ll give it another try at some point. If you’re looking for a nice dinner with waterfront views Taphouse and Wildfin are both very good options.

Came in right at opening on a beautiful Saturday. Weather was amazing so we wanted to make sure to get there early to beat the crowds. We sat at the bar top and were immediately asked what drinks we wanted. The mule I ordered was top tier and my wife enjoyed her draft beer. We were just chatting about maybe getting an app and my wife said “I think the bruschetta flatbread looks good” and the bartender, being right near us, says “bruschetta flatbread? You got it” and immediately put it in for us. Talk about amazing service. The other bartender took our food order and all around the vibes were amazing. The food was SO GOOD; I’ve been craving it ever since. Cannot wait to come back here.

We had a very nice experience at Twig's. My Osso Bucco was delicious and Twig's martini was head spinning. Jay our server was attentive. The river view was outstanding. We'll certainly be back.

We had never been to this Bistro. There were five of us. The food was excellent. The service was excellent. The coffee was amazing. They brew their own coffee. We definitely will be back. We had a wonderful time.

I ordered coffee. It tasted a week old. My entree was fish and chips. The portion of fish was small. The fish was overcooked. The fries and cole slaw was good. I asked for ketchup and was brought spicy red stuff. The waitress insisted it was regular ketchup but it was not. She did offer me more tartar sauce. The parking at the Waterfront is difficult. The pay to park machine kept refusing my credit cards. I tried another machine but the screen was locked, The best thing about Twigs is the beautiful view of the Columbia river.

Not a bad spot, but definitely higher on the price for what you get. Everything has always been tasty and you get a great waterfront view.

Average food in an excellent location on the columbia river. Probably won't go back though because the food is just average at best.

My food was great but my two guests weren't that impressed. We loved sitting by the window because the view is always appreciated BUT it was fairly cold! I am surprised that a fairly new building is that drafty by the windows. I guess next time, I'll just ask that we be moved.

Our party of 3 went to Twigs on a rainy Monday for lunch. The waitress was knowledgeable about my sister's gluten intolerance. She had the Philly Cheesesteak French Dip and reported it excellent. The other two of us enjoyed the fish tacos. Very delicious. I didn't care for the Carrot Ginger soup, but that was a matter of preference. Overall, a very good experience dining out for lunch.

We went once and told to sit anywhere in the bar area. Only table available had dishes on it but figured it would be cleaned…busboys kept adding to the mess. When I asked it to be cleaned up they did but then got no service. I figured it was a crazy day and wanted to return. I called to make reservations for our anniversary but was told I had to give a credit card for a table charge. I asked if the charge would be applied to to food and drinks. I was told no. We will NEVER go there.
Eh. Don't order the Mahi mahi tacos, they have absolutely no flavor and comes with weird "pico de gallo" that has cucumber in it? Whaaat. Side caesar salad was good though, that's basically all I ate from my order. The tacos are good size but due to the flavor, I only ate maybe half of one. I always feel bad wasting food at restaurants because I feel it looks rude for the poor wait staff who have nothing to do with the food or menu, but I couldn't fake eat these.Parking: You have to park in one of the paid parking lots nearby.

Trendy menu, high prices. Excellent gluten-free choices. No decaf espresso. My salmon was slightly overcooked but the pilaf and veggies were nice. My daughter's mushroom penne had way too much garlic and she's a garlic lover! My SIL loved his honey-chicken sandwich. The bread pudding was good. The cocktails were well done. A small cliché PNW beer selection on tap. Our waiter was friendly. The ambience is cramped and noisy.

Bf & I went in for Valentine's Day dinner, and our server, Heather, made the night so enjoyable! Within minutes I felt like one of my good friends was serving us that night. She was just so bubbly & fun, kept checking on us no matter how busy they got, and kept the evening full of laughter! 10 out of 10 just for her service alone! My boyfriend also says the steak was perfection (and he's a very picky man okay)! So thankful & happy we had our valentine dinner here <3

We have ate here in the past, was amazing. But today I wanted to give a shout out to Felix, the manager on 2/11/2024. I couldn't purchase a gift card online for some reason, I called in to ask if there were issues on their end. He said Well, let me try ..I can just take your info and do on my end! In todays world I don't run into this very often! He went beyond!! Thank you!! Felt like service in the old days!!
