    The downtown Eugene location is new and attractive. Our food came from the kitchen in a timely fashion and was very good. Everyone in our party enjoyed what they ordered. Overall it was a pleasant experience and didn't involve any excuses of being short staffed and sorry for the wait.

    We went for St. Patrick’s Day, and it was really fun. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. The only problem was they had a Scottish band instead of an Irish band on St. Patrick’s Day.! Which was humerous but entertaining!

    It’s a fun atmosphere being in the lobby/main floor of the Gordon Hotel. However, the food is mediocre to bad, and we won’t be back. The burger was dry and overcooked, the pasta was dry as well. The baked Brie was good, as were the pizzas. The calamari fry and flavorless. It’s a fun idea but poorly executed. Can’t recommend.

    It was a good experience overall. It is a lovely place, however, we were seated directly next to the kitchen when there was an open table in a quieter location. No one was seated there for our stay and we could have been placed there. Some of our food was fabulous and some was just ok. We will be back, but possibly just for the bar.

    I have eaten at the Gordon three of the last four days and this was my first lunch. Menu plays off of dinner offering with a solid offering of well prepared dishes at a lower price point. This establishment has the opportunity to be the corner stone for the dying formal dining offering in Eugene. Kudos to the Urban Restaurant Group for venturing outside of Portland!

    Ordered steak rare, came out light pink, medium to medium rare. First time in over 20 years of sending a steak back. It was 15 minutes to get 2nd steak, better but closer to medium rare.

    We always enjoy dining at The Gordon Tavern and have not been disappointed. We are especially grateful to the hostess that showed us grace. On our way there we got into an accident. She held our reservation for us even though by the time we arrived it was outside of their grace period. The restaurant was busy but they showed us compassion and concern for our well-being. Thank you. We will be back!

    The tuna was of poor quality. My partner ordered it seared Ahi but you could see the white running through it and you could barely cut it with your fork. My meat and cheese platter was very good but the wild mushroom pizza was really terrible and dry. I ate two slices and left the crust that's how my partner knew I hated it . Service is very good even though our server gets a three for Forgetting my partner second cocktail.

    Highly recommend Gordon Tavern! My husband and I were seated in the very back in a more quiet and private room for valentines day. We enjoyed their 4 course meal and it truly was unlike any other cuisine Eugene has to offer. We are so excited to go back and try their full menu. Drinks did not disappoint and the service was outstanding! Such a great new place!

    Ordered a filet, cooked rare. It came out medium and had a lot of fat. They were very quick to offer a new o Evans it came out perfect, except for a filet, had a lot of fat. Overall our meal was good, service was great.

    My wife and I shared Calamari, wedge salad, chicken Coq au Vin, and a lemon tart for dessert. My wife had a cocktail and I had a nice Tempranillo. Each course was delicious and there was plenty to eat for both of us. We’ve eaten here a few times over the past 2 years and this was our best meal. We’ll be back for sure.
