Once in a while you stumble over a restaurant that exceeds any expectation you may have from the reviews and absolutely blows ... your mind. “Recipe” is that kind of restaurant. Atmosphere Imagine an old Victorian house where each room is converted toexquisite but cozy and intimate dining rooms with ambient tunes playing from the speakers at a level that promotes and allowsfor conversation. There is also a cozy courtyard type seating. We had not made reservations so we were seated at the bar whichwas perfect for us. Drinks My wife ordered a lemon drop and I got a Woodford Reserve Old Fashioned. Nothing out of the ordinarywhen it came to the order, but our bartender, Jessica, blew our minds. The Lemon drop was perfect; not to acidic and not tosweet. My old fashioned came with an ice cube made of bitters…I’m going to steal that idea. For the dinner Jessicarecommended a 2018 Raptor Ridge Pinot Noir. Our interpretation of its expression: Dark fruits, coffee, toast, (hint of)licorice, bold. It was a great choice for our dinner and worth the 3x markup. (Price point: $87 - retails for~$28). Appetizers My wife had a radicchio salad with eggs, casteveltrano olives, breadcrumbs and a light Caesar vinaigrette. Itshould be named “Ridiculous Radicchio” - it was SO good. I went for the tartare which came with an aioli with a slightkick. I have never had tartars with home made, herbed potato chips but it gave a perfect crisp and complemented the tartare verywell. Definitely among the all-time best tartare I have ever had. Dinner We chose the Bourridge (somewhat like a bouillabaisse,but in an aioli based cream sauce. It came with cod, colossal shrimp, mussels and garlic crostinis. It was sublime both interms of presentation and flavors. We also shared a Casio e Pepe which came in browned butter - if I was to describe it in oneword, it would be “sinful”. SO darn good. Dessert My wife went for the Almond cake and I ordered the chocolatesemifreddo. The sponge of t Read more
We made a reservation here after it came up many times as a recommendation. When we walked up, we were excited to see a... beautiful older house that they turned into a restaurant. We got the soup, bucatini and steak. The cocktails were great, but sowere the wines offered by the glass. I think I will be dreaming about the steak and bucatini for a while. I would definitelyrecommend coming here for the ambiance, drinks, and most importantly, the food. Read more
A great option for dining while in wine country. We had a delicious meal with our friends. Great wine list and good cocktails.
Very good food and service. We always love dining here!
Excellent food and very attentive service. My wife had the Pork Cheeks and I had the steak. Both were cooked well with tasty... sides. Good wine and cocktail list. Highly recommend Read more
It has been a long time since we had dinner here, but they still have the same great service and food. After a day spent wine... tasting, it was a nice way to end the day by sharing a salad and the slow braised Wild Boar (which was fantastic!). This isstill one of the few “very nice” spots in the Willamette Valley to have a reasonably priced meal! Read more
Not that impressed. They were out of the vegetarian pasta option within an hour of dinner service starting. Options were limited... and not really worth the price. Read more
