Absolute run-of-the mill, reliable menu and preparation. This is the place to take your Mom and other un-adventurous guests.

I was here for lunch. Had the prime rib dip and it was tasty. Salad was fresh and plentiful. My co worker had a burger and said it was good as well. Service was fast and friendly. Plenty of parking with easy I5 access. read more

Clean home style food. Mains were under seasoned, but cooked perfectly. Food all came out quickly, staff was friendly and attentive. The crabbed filled mushroom while saucy, were the best part of the meal, and very enjoyable. read more

Good chili and BLT. Stopped here for lunch while getting GF's daughter situated at her new place.

Ate here with four judges from horseshow on 4/29/2011. Any restaurant premises on two things: 1) quality of food 2)overall service Quality of food--ordered prime rib(suggested as house specialty by our server Crystal(she was very polite, very helpful, dominated by a very poor manager)-came with an excellent tortilla soup and good bread(wow this is a great restaurant----NO!!!!!!!) $20.99 prime rib arrived and looked like a pink shoe sole. Had to work to cut it--had NO flavor and was TOUGH. Lady judge next to me had same comment. Waitress had to call manager over to take food away. Manager arrived with surly attitude. Asked what was wrong , we both explained. Her comment was that "must be a bad batch, you guys want rib eye"?? We both said no, I asked for her card, and told her I was going to write a review--she walked away. Came back shortly and asked what she could do to make us happy, didn't want me 'WRITING ANYTHING BAD ABOUT HER RESTAURANT", how about a free dessert??? She would take the items off our bills. We both said no, but I said may I have another cup of soup, instead of dessert-arrived in a bowl--after taking some, the rest with us had eaten, we got ready to go, and I got billed for $6.50 for two soups(what happened to not being billed???? She walked by our table, glared at us then went to another table. Gentleman across from me commented that the salmon he had was good, but piece was the size of his hand?? The following night we commented about this restaurant to some show exhibitors, and they HAD NOTHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RESTAURANT! Suggested we follow them to a restaurant called Lum Yuen--we did---good service, no attitude, good food!!!! WILL NEVER GO TO THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN!!! read more

We went to dinner at Cascade grill...there was a dog show in town and most competitors were staying in one of the 2 hotels "next door". Needless to say; it was very busy...including a party of about 20 without reservations for that night. I recently had a heart procedure. I went ahead and placed my order but had special needs due to dietary restrictions. The first was wanting my dressing on the side. A common request but often forgotten. I also asked that the vegetables that are normally "Sautéed" in a butter type sauce, be dry grilled instead. My meat was cooked to order, the salad had the dressing on the side, the vegetables were dry grilled as requested. Service was timely, excellent and with a smile! All regardless of the extremely busy evening and the obnoxious heart patient (me) with special orders! I will eat here again and happily recommend it to you! read more

Tonight was our first night visiting Cascade Grill and we had a wonderful experience. My husband and I both had the Prime rib, which was delicious. The drinks were great as well. Jordan, our server, made the entire experience. He was so sweet and attentive. I have been a server for over 6 years myself and he gave flawless service, the kind you don't see often. We will definitely be back! read more

We tried this place based off of others reviews and were sorely disappointed. I had the chicken which was covered in a mound of gelatinous cheese. After peeling it off I found the chicken to be extremely dry and bland. My husband ordered the black and blue burger which wasn't any better. The burger patty was thin, dry and again bland. My mother ordered the southwest salad and could hardly get through it because of how spicy it was. Needless to say we will never go there again. read more

Food poisoning!!! I had the soup, and about 30 minutes later was blowing watery diarrhea. Thank God I made it home in time! Two weeks later, and I'm still not back to normal. I should have called the health department. Oh, and the place is really dull and boring, with a menu to match. But hey, I guess that's what people in Albany like. read more

Slow and rude service - it took 10 minutes before we saw a server, nearly 30 minutes before the appetizer arrived and over an hour for the main course. It was not busy. When we asked about the wait, the server responded very rudely. Food was hit and miss - some good, some not so good. But it's definitely not worth the wait. read more

I went into this place solely because it was close to my hotel and I didn't feel like driving. I sat in the bar since I was solo - A Seahawks game was playing. The bartender/server was awesome. She was attentive to people who were obviously regulars and to passers-through like me. After eating I moved to the bar because I liked the energy in the room and the bartender was responsible for that. She would get distracted mid serving to attend to the game (a Seahawk fan) but her positive energy was contagious. Several return customers came in and she knew their drinks of choice, asking if they wanted specific drinks. I, of course, forgot my togo box of leftovers and returned 15 minutes or so later to see if it was still there - it was - sitting behind the bar as she thought I'd return. The food was decent, but positive people and great customer service is why I'll come back here next time I spend the night in Albany. read more

I have no idea who paid the woman to write the review below which led me into the Cascade grill believing it may be good. I will start in reverse order with the meal. The dessert was something bland right out of sysco or FSA's freezer wrapper package.The portion was tiny. Want to charge $6-$8 for a slice of cake? Try making it in house and having it actually be delicious and an appropriate portion. Dinner: A $12.00 BLT with bad tomato. Easy to forget. Appetizer: $10 for 4 shrimp. Should have been 6. This place only is busy due to the hotel there and lack of other dining on this side of freeway. Never will return. Total waste of money. read more

Great service and excellent food! Came with a party of seven for a birthday celebration. Even got a free dessert. We will definitely be coming back. read more

We went for Valentine's Day dinner, arriving around 6:30 pm. Initially we were told it would be a wait of an hour, but it was half that or less. The hostesses were friendly, efficient and handled a stressful job gracefully. Our waiter had what to me is the perfect combination of personality and sense of humor as well as a good memory and knowledge of the menu. I especially liked that he checked to be sure I would be ok with walnut oil in the raspberry vinaigrette, as I don't find many who volunteer warnings--normally you have to ask. The bread was served warm-yum! My salad was big and fresh, my Fisherman's Platter included my first taste of pan fried oysters, and although I took off a lot of the batter, all of my seafood was tender and good. My husband's soup and Asian salad were both tasty, although he would have preferred the chicken grilled. Other servers helped to get our meal to us promptly, and removed some of our used dishes. I enjoyed the music--old time love songs, which I'm old enough to recognize. All-in-all, a lovely dinner. read more

Nice quite atmosphere to have lunch or dinner. Service was good and food was amazing in price and quality

The "SPECIAL" 14OZ BONE IN prime rib was so tough I could not eat it. I have had top round steaks that was much better. Four of us ordered the special and all of us had the same opinion, "never again". My wife had a turkey dinner was served with what appeared to be Stove Top Stuffing. Shrimp skewers that were rubber for another guest. The only redeeming value was the service. After paying $400 for Dinner for 14 people I can tell you I will NEVER return! Food was horrible! read more

Had a good Philly cheesesteak omelet here today when we met friends for lunch. This is a good restaurant, convenient to I-5 Northbound, definitely your best bet for a good sit-down meal between Eugene and Salem. An older crowd for lunch on a Sunday, fighting over the handicap spots. Off-putting Muzak when you walk in, but don't worry, it's subdued back in the dining area. Service is a little on the slow and inattentive side, but nothing to bring out the hater in me. Prices are reasonable for a nice, clean place. For example, a burger and fries goes for less than ten bucks. My omelet was good. Fresh ingredients, cooked right, seasoned well. A nice portion of good crispy home fries on the side. Not greasy, not at all, and a generous portion of wheat toast to boot. Six others in our party, everyone's meals arrived together without any issues. Big portions all around. I recommend it and wouldn't hesitate to eat there again. read more

This Steakhouse is one of our favorites since we have arrived in Oregon. The service was wonderful and our waiter, Jordan, was great. Very attentive. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience. read more

We always in in the bar great menu very good food. Sometimes service is slow otherwise very good, oddly service can be really good, it just needs to tighten up read more

I am giving this four stars because of the FANTASTIC service. Food was mediocre (think of "Perkins") but the waittress we had was great. Kept my toddler happy till food arrived, was responsive... totally made up for the food qualtiy. read more

My family went there for dinner. The service was quick and pleasant. We ordered our food and didn't have long to wait. Everything was great. I had the prime rib and it was done exactly the way I asked. All our food was very good and the service was great. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to going back. read more

This restaurant is okay. The food and decor are okay. Nothing great, nothing bad. However, there were a couple of annoying things. First, the server never refilled water or 3 dollar iced tea. Even cheap restaurants refill these beverages. Second and most important was a very odd mannerism on the part of the server, which I have noticed a lot lately. What's with this "we" stuff? "How are WE doing?" "Is everything okay for US?" Do you do this as corporate policy? Do you do this with older people? PLEASE STOP IT! It is annoying and comes off as condescending and patronizing. We are in our sixties. We are not children and are not demented. Please speak normally. read more

I just went here for a meeting recently. It is a great location for the hotels near the fair grounds. I would say the food is good and the service is good too. It reminds me more of a place I would go if I were staying somewhere else in a hotel. It seems to cater to people visiting from out of town....but is a solid option. read more

New review on this place. It has gotten better in my experience with dealing with Mike the bartender in the lounge. He is very respectful and it seems like she does appreciate having a job. I'm sure he does well with the good attitude that he does now :-) I have been in enough times now that I do think they fired the yuck mouth that was in there. read more

The menu has a wide selection of offerings. I am new to the area so I have been working my way through the menu. So far everything has been very good. The staff are awesome as well. read more

This is a decent restraunt, but nothing to crow about. Albany offers better for similar prices. My parents insisted on eating here twice due to location. Both times, service was slow. Both times, we were there over an hour between being seated and food being brought to the table. That wouldn't be so bad if we were brought refills or water, but no. I don't recommend coming here unless you have time to waste. read more

Second time eating here and this time the quality seemed to have slid a bit. Everyone's food was either cold or just lukewarm. The prime rib was okay but cold. Basically, the food is overpriced for the quality. Cascade grill has become an overpriced Applebee's at best. One shining light, our server Amanda was excellent. Personable and efficient. She sent out hot mashed potatoes and vegetables when we pointed out that ours were cold. Not sure what's going on with this restaurant but there are other places to drop $15-20 on an entree that taste a lot better. read more

We received really poor customer service. The bartender was extremely unpleasant. For the amount of money that we spent I would expect better service. read more

We haven't been back to the Cascade in many months. Awesome lunch today. Food was terrific as well as service by Sonya. Sonya must have had a 40-50 other people she was serving and we felt like we were the only ones. Happy, enthusiast, very friendly and incredibly efficient. All around nice lunch experience. read more

Nice place. Took a group of 17 there this evening and had very good service in spite of the restaurant having a busy night. Everyone in my group seemed to enjoy their food. I wouldn't say it is top of the line by any means but it was all very good. The place is clean and quiet. Drinks were tasty. Prices reasonable. Lots of variety on the menu including some nicely healthy choices. Overall, after several visits this is a place I would recommend and will return to. read more

This restaurant gave us their banquet room to use for the get together after my father's memorial service. It was a Thursday afternoon at 1:30, and we had the restaurant basically to ourselves, anyway. Their provided us with a limited menu of very good options, and served us great food with courteous servers. It was a very positive atmosphere and experience, and I would use them again! read more

Went New Years day for a big family gathering. They were really slow whic b could be why I waitress seemed to only be seeing us. There was so many of us in the banquet room that she brought pitchers of the pop we were drinking so nobody was ever empty, she was always there when we needed something. Banquet room was roomy and the whole place Is clean. Differently will call to book christmas dinner there next year. read more

Staff was friendly but extremely slow. Took over 45 minutes for food to arrive and there was only 10 customers in the place. Food was average, nothing to write home about. Would go somewhere else next time when looking for a happy hour venue. read more

Consistently fabulous service and food! We always sit in the lounge and the staff in there treats us like family. Always a smile, great service, a little joking back and forth. Very comfortable place to unwind after a long day at work. Thank you for spoiling us! read more

I was sitting in the bar area last night and a drunk woman stood up and said what we can't say nigger in here. The restaurant staff responded quickly and asked the woman to leave. The food is five star. read more

My hubby and I discovered this place on a drive- and we hadn't tried it yet. It was packed when we drive by so we went the next day. Very nice n clean, nice staff and very good food . Steak was tender and our waiter was the best we've seen in the area. A little pricier than most, but we felt it was worth it in good food and service! It is near hotels but we'll go back- mostly because the service was THAT good! read more

I would not recommend Cascade Grill. Poor service and long wait for anything we asked for. Our waitress was rude when my husband asked for ranch. We won't be returning. Sybaris is a much better option if you want something fantastic. read more

Albeit not the most convenient location for many in Albany, we found it to be worth the effort. We have almost always had good food and good service. It appears that on occasion, but not very often, that service can suffer when the restaurant is swamped from those attending events at the Linn County Expo Center next door, and/or when the two large hotels on site are full. Food quality is generally very good, with some of their daily specials being well worth having. Soups are very good, across the board! Parking generally easy, with close-in disabled parking at the door. Motorhome and vehicles with trailers not likely to find easy parking. Suggest leaving them at Expo Center and walking over, if possible. read more

Great place for a quality meal. We are regulars and have enjoyed every meal. Last night my wife had the chicken cordon blue which was excellent. My chopped steak was cooked a little well done but still tasty. Great friendly staff provided excellent service. We will continue to be loyal customers. read more

This place is great! Traveling on I-5 north on the road from Weed, CA staying at Holiday Inns and this restaurant was just the perfect end to my traveling. It was 106 degrees out and yes, I'm in an air conditioned car but sometimes you just need to stop. I'm sorry I didn't get the pics of my steak Sammy but it was awesome. Very friendly staff and if I am traveling through these parts again I will make this a destination stop read more
