Braised Restaurant truly is gourmet food in a blue collar environment. They are a dedicated gluten free establishment. The Cottage Pie is my favorite! It truly is an appropriate nod to the British Empire with tender beef, peas, carrots, caramelized onions and a thick, rich beef gravy. The mash on top has a thin perfectly melted layer of cheese. The inside is seasoned perfectly and the flavors deliver that hearty European feel of a substantial meal. The Macaroni Stroganoff has that spot on taste of Beef Stroganoff but in the fun format of being in a macaroni dish. The beef, again, so tender it melts in your mouth. There are sautéed mushrooms, bacon lardons and creamy beef gravy, all combined in a bed of perfectly prepared macaroni. Crispy fried onions and a drizzle of a lemon aioli on top give it a satisfying crunch and kick of flavor. These flavors work perfectly well together and like I said, this is a prime example of gourmet food in a blue collar environment. We also tried a Mango Custard. This was very refreshing. Smooth and creamy, it has a swirl of puréed mango mixed in with a creamy custard base. No pudding knock offs here, this is a true custard. They are also bringing back a feature they call 'Braised Nights'. This will be a monthly occurrence of a three course dinner to be held on the grounds in the evening. There will be varying themes of these 'date nights' (my phrasing, not theirs) based on the season and holidays. Costs will vary depending on the menu for these special events and signups will be needed as space is limited. More information can be found on their website at; www.braised-restaurant.com Free parking is available in the lot. There are tables that are shaded with canopies as is the play area with games available for checkout. The environment here is very conducive to staying and dining on site. This location is clean, open and definitely a family friendly location.

So good! I love bread, and usually have a hard time with gluten free alternatives not coming close to comparison of the real thing. Alan's homemade GF rolls are incredible. The beef was tender and flavorful. An overall enjoyable sandwich. The best part was how personable Alan was! He was so bummed to be out of his current seasonal flavored soda for me that he whipped up a sample of next week's flavor for me to try (strawberry nectarine) and it was amazing! I have to go back and try that Mac and cheese soon!

Stopped by for lunch. The owner was really helpful with questions about his menu. Ordered Return of the Mac with pork. Has a nice shaded area for seating. My food was incredibly delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced and the crunch of the crispy onions was a nice texture contrast to the creamy, cheesy macaroni. Looking forward to returning to order more items on his menu. Definitely excited to try one of his specials.

Really great fresh food with some interesting combinations. We came here on a whim (no…read morereservations) while visiting my wife's niece at UofO at around noon on a Saturday. Busy but they had a table for us. Very nice decor, rotating menu. We had the buckwheat pancakes with caramelized bananas, dates, and pineapple syrup which was sweet but not overly so since the pancakes underneath were not touched by the syrup ended up being a really nice balance. Bacon was like a cross between pork belly and bacon (very thick) but really tasty. Breakfast Sando was good with in-house ground pork and a nice aioli. We also tried the savory macarons (Brie and truffle) which are delicious. Creamy and a tad sweet. Not too much truffle. Coffee was a bright tangy pour over-not my favorite type but some people really like that style. Oh, and we had a blood orange mimosa which was really good Overall an excellent experience! Definitely going to again when we are in town!

Great locally sourced menu items. Our server was friendly and patient as he explained the menu…read moreitems to us. Don't ask for Splenda, Stevia or any other artificial sweetener for coffee or tea. Our waiter just about clutched his pearls when I asked for Stevia. The ambience reminded us of small tourist-free boutique eateries in NYC. The only item I was slightly disappointed in was the Brie & Truffle Macaron. I got the wonderful flavor of the Brie, but not the slightest hint of black truffle. It was still delicious.

Not too noisy for a tavern, full selection of beer and wine. Burger came out just the way I like it, medium rare and the fries were nice and crisp. I will be stopping back here on my way back to CA.

Fancy cocktails available too. Food: I ordered the steak sandwich and was okay. Very small amount of hangar steak. Fries were crispy. Wife ordered chicken Cesar salad. Nothing to write home about. Kid ordered the steak frites and this was the biggest disappointment of the night. VERY small serving....about 4 slices of perhaps rib eye? Under seasoned and very thin slices. Fries were crunchy though. My kid isn't a big eater and he was still hungry after eating this. Chicken nachos were delicious plentiful, but it came with huge cherry tomatoes on it. More tomatoes than cheese! And the cheese was grated cheese. Not a creamy bechamel cheese sauce. They barely put any cheese on this. Mostly tomatoes and sour cream. Pass on this. This was something you can get at Chilis! Service: Servers were nice. Only came around once to refill out drinks. The food came out really slow! We waited for over an hour and it wasn't that busy. Lot of empty seats! I was appreciative of the server letting us know service/tip already included on our bill. Don't think we'd come back here again.

The food has been extraordinary this year! The menu starts with various eggs benedict and potatoes or salads. At one pm, the lunch menu opens. The chef makes an exquisite burger on brioche bun.

Service is noteworthy with a recent Arts alum serving nicely. Go Ducks!

Our server was incredibly attentive, what I appreciated was the fact he paid attention to every single person in the group when taking orders, when asking questions, and such. Too many times in a large group small needs are ignored, and our waiter was amazing with that. Which is what will stick in my brain long after writing this. Food was amazing. I had what is basically diced ham and scrambled eggs, but those were the softest scrambled eggs I've ever eaten. It's clear they have a chef cooking and not just a cook. It was simple food, but done perfectly and I love that. Everything came out at the same time, which is no small feat with a large group like ours. This was the most relaxing and enjoyable brunch I've ever had in a restaurant, while celebrating a milestone birthday, enjoying great food and drinks, and catching up with family I hadn't seen in over a year. This was a restaurant that was all about the experience, not just turning tables over for new customers. Would I return? Oh my yes! The views from the restaurant are gorgeous, parking is easy, food/drinks/service are all on point. I literally have nothing to complain about. This is definitely a place that's worthy of repeat visits.

We ate our commencement celebratory dinner at Gordon Tavern. The place was packed and the service…read morewas a little hiccupy, but I imagine it was not a typical day for them. We ordered their house hefeweizen and I thought it was good. Daughter had a cider and appreciated it. Food ordered were two pork chop plates and a salmon. These were beautifully presented and tasty. The pork chop was a little tough for my taste, but honestly all pork seems to be that way because of the changes in hog care/feed. I think the restaurant is very pretty, but all the surfaces are hard. Consequently, it is very loud. I would return here and try appetizers, which looked great!

They were able to seat our party of of nine, including toddler, fairly easily though we did need to call because nine is 'overbooked'. Thanks for getting us in, Gordon! The menu is not extensive but everyone found something that suited them well. I picked the burger, and it was excellent. Kudos to the chef for getting it fully well done; oftentimes I order a burger this way and it comes out with some pink on it. The bacon was also cooked through, another item that usually comes half cooked or less. It was accompanied with fries and I was really pleased with my choice. Some of the others got the short rib, salmon, and steak and everyone was happy with the meal. I decided to get an alcoholic beverage and was torn between the Starry Night and the Oregon Mule. I don't usually like a mule, but this one had marionberry vodka and I'm a sucker for just about anything with marionberry flavor so I went for it. I was surprised how much I liked this drink, because ginger beer usually is far too overpowering and here it was well balanced with the rest of the drink. I would order this again, and probably liked it better than the bit of the Starry Night I tasted from my sister. They also have seasonal drinks and lots of beers and wines to choose from. It's in the Gordon Hotel, so it's hard to miss (except I did, because for some reason I didn't make the connection that the Gordon Tavern was of course the restaurant at the Gordon Hotel). There's parking across the street that I believe is free for up to three hours.
