    We all enjoyed our dinner. We were seated promptly and ordered drinks and appetizers first. We highly recommend the seasonal egg roll special. They were delicious. So delicious that I forgot the other app we ordered😊. Jamaican rice bowl with added grilled chicken was good, but it seemed to be missing the typical pop of flavor. I think one ingredient may have been missed. But it was still good. Friends loved their pizza and salad. And said the crab and shrimp roll was very good. One of my favorite things about the McMenamins pubs is the fresh squeezed fruit juice they use--that attention to detail, really kicks them up a notch above other bars. My Palomas were delicious.

    Everything was perfect, for a fun brunch. I got the Shakshuka and it was delicious. The bottomless mimosas were truly bottomless and the food everyone else got looked delicious too. Our server was the best and the space was beautiful. Highly recommend.
