Restaurants near White Salmon

“This place has been a must stop or even the reason why I retreat from Portland for a weekend getaway. The wine selection and food are perfectly curated, and the staff are always sweet and kind and attentive regardless of how busy it is.

Kudos to the owners for creating such an amazing space. One of my top five wine bars of all time.

Oh...and Riley...!

She is one of the best servers I have ever met....”

“The breakfast sandwiches are delicious. I would rather eat a baguette from here, butter and jam than a donut from anywhere else! I could eat here every day. Love sitting on the patio.”

“A casual but rather sophisticated food selection with good wine and cocktail choices.”

“✨✨✨✨✨ The best local coffee shop in White Salmon and BZ Corner!”

“Amazing coffee and matcha! But what really blew us away were the pastries. We got the honey cake and the mochi. Absolutely phenomenal treats made with high quality local ingredients!”

“Quality, Integrity and Love is TeaLyn’s!”

“The bar tender (Jen) was great and fed me drinks all night and tolerated my intoxicated behind! Bonus points for a killer playlist! 10/5 for sure!”

“5 star ice shop. It is so good!”

“Go for the beer, leave for the food….

Seriously, the beer is VERY good, the service and ambiance are quite nice, the view from the patio is lovely, and the food is best skipped entirely.”

“Not a typical Mexican restaurant. It never said it was. I like it exactly like it is. Great food, friendly staff and good energy in the room. Is like to see corn tortilla chips besides flour.”

“We came for lunch, so it was sandwiches. The family had 3 different ones. All very tasty. Then we had blackberry danish and poppyseed cake for dessert. The desserts were rich and I don’t think anyone could clock them as vegan for whatever that’s worth. And the sandwiches were very flavorful on house made bread. Highly recommend!”

“the food and service are always great. been eating there for years… they all know me!!”

“Soup is delicious. My family really enjoyed our meal here. I have celiac and can only eat GF which made it a bit tricky.

The soup was very tasty, but I’d be cautious if you have celiac. I explained that I have celiac and ordered the shio ramen with GF rice noodles. I was assured everything was GF, but before eating I learned the GF noodles were cooked in the same water as the regular ramen. They remade it and the manager confirmed the soup was GF, but I was still unsure about some ingredients, so I only ate the noodles, chicken, and broth. Thankfully, I had no symptoms, but the experience was stressful.”

“Absolutely amazing mouth watering italian cuisine. Chef Elizabeth is truly a master at her craft and I highly recommend checking out her delicious food!”

“We were so fortunate to find this unique Cafe with one of the most eclectic and carefully curated menus. The tacos, enchiladas and quesedillas were just the right portions and we could taste the freshness of their ingredients. The crush puppies were a star as were the cider flights. What stuck with us though was how friendly, personable and genuinely kind the staff was. They made it an incredible experience. It was the most grounded and relaxing eating experience we could have imagined. Keep shining and we will certainly be back when we can!”

“Pine Street Bakery ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ On 9/15/22, I stopped in Hood River, Oregon to check out Pine Street Bakery. Owner Megan Davis’s mother started Grand Central Bakery in Seattle, Washington in 1972. Today, there are 11 locations between Portland and Seattle. If you ever have an opportunity to visit a Grand Central Bakery/Café, I recommend it. I wanted to try one of their famous Cardamom Knots, which are Challah dough slathered in Vanilla Butter, covered in Cardamom Sugar and tied in a Knot. Unfortunately, they were out. I got a Carrot Cake cupcake ($5), which is one of their best sellers, as well as a Maddie Cake cupcake ($5). The Maddie Cake cupcake is a seasonal cupcake that changes with some regularity. The current Maddie Cake cupcake is Peaches & Cream. It is Vanilla cake filled with Peach compote made from local peaches, topped with a Vanilla Swiss Meringue Butter cream frosting. I enjoyed both cupcakes but my favorite of the two was the Maddie Cupcake because it was so unique. There was a generous amount of peach compote in the center of the cupcake, as well as on top. The compote had great flavor. Both cupcakes were fairly dense but moist. In addition to the baked goods and breads, Pine Street Bakery has Breakfast, Lunch, and Coffee menus, as well as specials. They also sell a lot of other products and fresh flowers. Highly Recommended!!!”

“Been coming here for over 25+ years. Always been the best part of the drive home from sprink skiing at Meadows.”

“love the food. great service. and the chapolte sauce rocks!”

“Quaint cafe and hotel in an old school. The cafe has great vegetarian options and tea as well as coffee. Be aware there are a lot of steps from the parking lot to the cafe.”

“A great tasting menu experience with exceptional food quality and service. Hood River has been in need of a true fine dining experience and Votum delivers. My partner and I share a birthday and celebrated at Votum. I loved that they have tasting menu reservations as late as 9 pm.

We had to tasting menu with wine pairing and added the caviar. Every dish was excellent, and the wine well-paired. The caviar was some of the best I’ve had. The sable fish and beef tongue/ravioli were standouts, and we loved the multiple dessert courses. Even dishes I don’t traditionally love (steelhead, lamb) were so high-quality and executed so well that I enjoyed every bite.

Nathan provided excellent and perfectly attentive service the likes of which I haven’t had in recent memory. He’s clearly a fine dining pro with deep experience who balances storytelling and service without being intrusive.

Small points of feedback… I understand the aesthetic they are going for, but something feels a bit missing in their current layout and decor. It’s a beautiful building, and they’re going for a minimalist aesthetic, But I would love to see them solicit some design help to bring the atmosphere on par with the food and service in the long-term. It feels a bit more like a big hotel conference room than an intimate dining experience. These things are expensive, and as small business owners I think they focused first on what matters most.

I would recommend they invest in getting their fruit fly situation under control. Totally understand that it is common struggle at this time of year, but other fine dining establishment seem to be able to sort it.

Do prepare for the price tag, as it is substantial, but for us having these types of experiences is worth it. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to my foodie friends and anyone who truly appreciates fine food and service. We had a great time and will be back”

“Amazing vegan food!! Visiting Hood River. Love this place!”

“Amazing food and service. Everything was of the highest quality. Can’t recommend enough”

“This was delicious bbq! Our group tried the brisket, pulled pork, burnt ends, Mac and cheese, and picnic potatoes. The burnt ends were the crowd favorite but it was all fantastic.”

“We can’t thank Tamara and James enough for providing such a delicious assortment of desserts as well as a beautiful wedding cake for our big day. They were professional and communicative and our guests appreciation of the spread was clear from the lack of leftovers!”

“Great food, great beer, great service. Highly recommend.”

“Nice spot. Parking can run hot and cold. Excellent shop, well taken care of. Slim on staffing, adequate to the task. Fewer food offerings than some other places, but nothing to knock them on. It was all excellent. Family friendly. Plenty of 4 tops can easily be 6, or taller tables for couples.”

“Great food & sweet employees!”

“The Scandinavians know how to do breakfast.”

“On our way back to Pendleton from Portland, we stopped to charge our car. Then walked over to Solstice Wood Fire Pizza for dinner. We decided to order the BLBB pizza, a hot Kenyan Grey tea, and a huckleberry organic lemonade. Our server Brad N did an awesome job making our dining experience a real treat.”

“Friendly space with good beer and cider”
