Could have been a 5 star rating with just a little more care...

The dumplings here are absolutely delicious!…read more The xiaolongbao have incredibly thin skins and are filled with rich, flavorful broth. The boiled dumplings are clearly handmade--you can taste the freshness of the dough. The pork and cabbage filling is clean, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The pan-fried buns are crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with a generous, flavorful meat filling. Every type of dumpling has its own unique flavor, and with each bite, you'll think, "This one is my favorite!"--until you try the next one. This place is truly a hidden gem for dumplings in Eugene.

The service was fast and efficient and the food came out fairly quickly as you might expect. Lots of flavors and spice in the dishes. The Kung Pao Chicken was probably the only dish I wasn't impressed with out of our order. It was just kind of strange. The Dan Dan Noodles were delicious and the dumplings, pork buns, all delicious! It's a fairly small place, so plan to wait if you are there during peak times. But it's worth it!

It was raining lightly, so having the picnic tables protected from the rain was nice. I ordered Dire Wolf Poutine, and was very pleased with the service I recieved. The food? I could barely finish it, huge portion. I really should have taken about half home with me, but I managed to eat it all. It was very good, lots of curds, fries were tasty, fried chicken was yummy, and the gravy was very tasty. Highly recommended!

Turns out it is…read morea vegetarian/vegan place which I usually avoid actually as I am a big carnivore and like my meat. Plus I was even on a keto diet and really needed a low carb meal. It was nice that not only did they allow me to substitute the potatoes and bread on the entree with salad (without additional charge), but they gave me a heaping mound of salad instead of the usual loose fluff of a bit of salad at most brunch places here in SF (when they have salad as part of a main dish). The salad itself was more interesting and nutritious than the usual, it had finely chopped veggies of all sorts, not just plain boring lettuce, and the dressings offered were all creative concoctions (I tried the cilantro tahini one which was tasty). The vegan omelet I got was seriously tastier than most of the regular omelets I have had. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We sat outside and were able to enjoy some sunshine and fresh air. Overall a way better experience and food than many of the brunch places I've been to, I highly recommend!

I went here for lunch with a friend today. I've been wanting to go for a while and was finally able…read moreto go while they were open. I'm so glad we went because this place is wonderful! We got a table pretty much immediately. We sat outside, initially at a table right by the wall. We could smell the dumpster so it wasn't great, but once another table opened we were offered the option to move and we took it. The new table was much better - no smell and it was next to a heater so it was nice and cozy. The outdoor patio is pretty cute and the fresh air was nice! I have a soy allergy so I had to ask the waitress for an allergen list to make sure I would be okay. They were very nice and accommodating and told me what was and wasn't safe to eat. I ended up getting the focaccia with white bean paste, something I was skeptical of but really liked! The bread was super delicious and the bean paste was well-seasoned. The little slice of lemon it came with was a great topper for it all too. I would definitely get it again! I also got the sparkling lavender lemonade and it was so so good. It was perfectly balanced and I couldn't stop drinking it. The food was all pretty affordable which I appreciated. Lunch and drinks for two people was about $35. They don't do tipping here, they actually pay their employees a livable wage which is fantastic. They have a pay it forward program you can donate cash to instead, it goes towards breakfast for people in need. The employees seemed happy and were very friendly. They seemed to really enjoy working here which is always a good sign. I will definitely be back here. The people are friendly and the food is delicious. They are wholesome people doing important work and we should all be supporting them. Go here!

Rude to children. I…read morewas born and raised in Eugene, I cherish my visits back home and carefully choose where to spend my time. On a July visit from Seattle we drove across town to eat here specifically so our four-year-old, who has a dairy allergy, could enjoy a vegan restaurant where he could safely order anything on the menu. Instead, it became one of the worst restaurant experiences we've had. Staff was rude and arrogant. Especially a specific woman. I wonder if it was the owner because they didn't seem to have any concern at all about their bad behavior... Our son was folding the cardstock menu into what he said would be a card for his dad when a woman, not our server, walked over, took it out of his hands, and replaced it with a sheet of plain printer paper. No explanation. No conversation with us. Just took it and walked away. My son was crying so I went to her and asked if he could have it back, it was already wrinkled from folds, no use to them, but I was told it had been thrown in the trash and that he could have "as many pieces of paper as he wanted." My four-year-old would not stop crying, and begging me for his card for dada back. I assume they felt insulated by him playing with it but he's a child, and it's a piece of cardstock, not a noisy running around brat, not a broken dish, just a piece of cardstock, which they took to throw in the trash. No one acknowledged him, apologized, or showed even a hint of compassion. We left without eating because the atmosphere had become so uncomfortable.

It's owned and operated by a local family who took matters into their own hands when their favorite Chinese noodle restaurant closed. Chef Jason, who was a chef at the former restaurant, decided to start this food-truck and turn his passion for Chinese biang biang mian into a reality. He uses the recipes from his restaurant experience so these delicious noodles can live on! The hand-pulled noodles and chili oil are a game changer and portions are huge.

Casey Neill and his Norway Rats infested the place, occupying many holes stubbornly, much to our delight and ultimate benefit. For 20-plus years I've been making the pilgrimage to Eugene every few years (usually on the occasion of PIELC) -- and without fail, at some point we would end up at Sam Bond's Garage. But this year -- no Sam Bond's. It's turned into the Whit franchise of a pizza place, apparently. (No disrespect to their pizza. It's delicious.) But. What happened to my favorite bar/music spot in Eugene?? Such an unspeakable loss, if this venue is actually permanently closed. I will remain hopeful that it will be reborn... somewhere else? But if not: RIP Sam Bond's Garage. We, from near and far, loved you. Thank you for the good times you gave us all.
