    Outstanding experience overall. Great food, great service, good value. This is now one of my go to spots for date nights and has never disappointed. Love the menu options and revolving specials combined with some good drinks. Definitely lively and can get loud when fills up and has open kitchen so adds to the noise. But, can’t wait to come back.

    Excellent food and atmosphere. It’s a little expensive, but I knew that beforehand so it didn’t factor that into this review.

    this dining experience was exceptional. The food was nothing short of outstanding—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The waterfront view added a serene and scenic backdrop that elevated the entire evening. What truly set this place apart, though, was the service. Our server was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. Every detail, from the timing of the courses to the thoughtful recommendations, was handled with care. This restaurant is a true gem—I can't wait to return!

    This place checked all the spots for me and my husband: romantic ambience, great service, and excellent food that met our dietary restrictions without sacrificing quality. The primavera maitake is one of the best pastas I’ve had— and I usually have meat and am not typically a mushroom fan! But the spice was wonderfully balanced by the basil and tomato flavors, and the maitake was a very satisfying texture with the linguine. The AIP dessert was also amazing, as always. Portions were perfect. We’ll keep coming back here for date nights!

    McMenamins Elks Temple offers a truly memorable experience with its stunning atmosphere, great value, and high-quality food. The unique setting and service made for a wonderful evening, and the pricing felt fair for such a well-loved spot. That said, while everything we ordered was tasty, the menu itself leans heavily toward casual, bar-style fare—lots of fried items and basic burgers. For a venue that often requires reservations and carries a sense of occasion, it would be nice to see a few more elevated or mature dining options added to the mix.
