    Cinnamon bun pancakes
    Thuy N.

    The cinnamon pancakes is a. Must order! It was not too sweet we and honestly you don't even need the syrup. Because the creme in the pancake is just enough. The chicken fried steak is tender and crispy! Gravy gave it a good balance. Thank you tot he staff for accommodating our big party. It was thoughtful of them and made it work. We really appreciated this and also taking the time to sing to our friend's son for his bday. :) Plenty of seats and their new location in Hillsboro is nearby. So glad they are still nearby bc we miss the Waterhouse location :)

    Pretty good job. Thry are still figuring things out. Our order was incorrect and they were very nice and offered to fix it, but my wife was hungry and just ate it anyway. The fish and chips was what you would expect. Was tasty- not like at the beach, but no complaints. The chowder was ok. Not bad, but not great either. The breakfast was good, about what you would expect. We will be back. Im sure they will keep getting getting better!

    Our server, Holly, was fabulous! Super friendly, attentive, and just awesome to chat with. My husband and I were in town for a wedding when we saw Elmer's. The logo looked familiar. And as soon as we walked in it was confirmed. It's the same Elmer's from back home in Palm Springs. We had no idea there were other locations! The food was perfect as usual and it was lovely to have a little taste of home.

    After discovering a new restaurant near our place, we've tried breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner, and it hasn't disappointed. The food is excellent, the place is clean, and we understand it's new and they're still figuring things out. We can't complain. A little advice... the host or hostess at brunch should show a more welcoming demeanor :) but overall, the experience has been great.

    I wasn't sure what to think.. but with Portland Burger week, I started looking up burger places…read more.. and it was Taco Tuesday... I came across a smash burger taco... yes... you heard that...and they use corn tortillas and they're gluten free. So good. They tasted like a good cheeseburger with pickles, lettuce and sauce. Ordered fries too and got the regular... huge portion.. wonder what the larger size is ... I ordered delivery, but definitely plan on going back. Worth it.

    I've never had a "Smash Burger"…read more Now I'm convinced that I don't wanna try any others. I kid I kid.... However, I'll rate this the best Smashburger I've ever tried. I'm giving it five stars, because to me it was perfect. Let me describe. The Bun 9/10 soft and fluffy, great flavor. The fixings 9/10 Strike sauce, lettuce, pickle, and if you choose American cheese. You could have caramelized, onions or bacon, added to it as well. The strike sauce is ketchup, mayo, mustard. Mixed perfectly. They have so many drinks to choose from. I decided to get the Mountain Dew pineapple apple so good. The service was excellent, friendly smiles, answered any questions that I had. Food came out, had a very fast reasonable time for quality to be met. This place is meant to have orders to go. It did seat around eight inside and had some seating outside available if you wanted to eat there. My overall experience 10 out of 10. I'll definitely be coming back. If you've been waiting to find or try a really good Smashburger, there's definitely no need to look any further. This little hidden gem is perfect to curb. You're cravings.

We started with the family-size Smokey Roque salad. Everything tasted fresh, and the blue cheese dressing was flavorful without being overpowering. The homemade bread arrived warm and delicious with just a touch of salt, I could have eaten the entire loaf! For our entrées, we ordered the Spicy Sausage Rigatoni, Pork Ragu, Al Tartufo, and the pork chop which was the special for the day (forgot the name). I chose the Vongole, and it was out of this world! Pasta with clams is one of my favorite dishes, so I thought I knew what to expect, but this version was so much more flavorful. The herbs added wonderful flavor, while the hint of lemon enhanced the dish without overpowering it. Every clam was open, so none went to waste. When my plate arrived, was sure I would have leftovers to take home but I enjoyed it so much that I ate every bite including the pasta!! The restaurant's website says they use "fresh, high-quality ingredients sourced from local, sustainable, and organic farms," and they absolutely live up to that promise!! The reception area may seem small when you first walk in, but don't let that fool you. We sat in the dining area on the left, but the other side has a bar, additional tables, a small private dining room that seats about a dozen people, and another larger dining space. The restaurant feels cozy and inviting while still offering plenty of room. Alex, our server, was wonderful. When he learned that my brother and sister-in-law live nearby and had visited before, he took the time to note their names. It was a thoughtful touch that made the experience feel even more personal! We walked about 15 minutes to the restaurant. It was a fun way to begin and end the evening, and no one had to drive after enjoying wine and margaritas! Bethany's Table is worth supporting not only because it's a neighborhood bistro, but because they do an excellent job!! The atmosphere is welcoming, the food is beautifully prepared, and the fresh, locally sourced ingredients truly shine!! We'll definitely be back, sooner rather than later!!

    FANTASTIC! If you love burgers and open to new experiences... THIS IS A MUST STOP!…read more It was recommended to me by a colleague, not knowing anywhere to go as it is my first time to Hillsboro... I pulled it up here on Yelp and it was Highly recommended.... So I did. Wow I am glad I did! I had a Fat Mario and added Sweet Potato Fries... way more food than I could eat! And I can eat! lol The flavors are off the hook! The sweet potato fries were fresh and perfectly done!! The ambiance is perfect, the service, excellent... Check it out! Fat Mario is a burger with onion ring, jalapeno, secret sauce... came with green salad, and pot stickers... oooh la la !! Fantastic!!

    We were in the area on vacation and going to a Hops Baseball game. This place was good -- but…read moreexpensive. For 4 people with 4 burgers (comes with salad and 3 pot stickers) and 4 sodas -- it was just over $100. This seems like a lot for a "fast food" type restaurant. The food was good, not great. I got the jalapeño popper burger, I guess I misread as I thought the jalapeño and cream cheese was inside. It was not, there was a large bacon wrapped jalapeño not he top. Otherwise a plain burger. Miss opportunity I thought. The Skippy burger was good -- but some bacon and a spicy sriracha or something would make it better, and less sweet. Chicken burger was good. Don't remember the 4th burger (sorry). I also wish they offered a different green -- they only have arugula which I do not enjoy -- so the salad did nothing for me. Pot stickers were great! Would try again if ever in the area.

    Golden Valley Brewery has been a bit lower on the priority list as far as it goes for breweries to…read moretry in the Portland metro area. Part of it is Steve and I hardly ever go to Beaverton and we were a little bit concerned with the Yelp score average. But we decided to give it a try a little while back as it was it's time and we want to check out and be as completeist as possible with breweries in this area. The beer that Steve and I had was the Muddy Valley Oatmeal Stout. Now, I also tried their beer a lighter beer type at their McMinnville location and it was just okay... but this Oatmeal Stout I liked quite a bit more. So I suggest focusing in their dark beers. The flavor highlights in this beer are sweetness and Oatmeal. It is also smooth and creamy in body. For a Stout it isn't a very heavy beer and is on the light bodied side which sometimes you come across a Stout that is like that but it isn't something I'd call commonplace.

The rib eye was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were wonderful. The mustard greens weren't my favorite but that's personal preference. The cherry on top was their special: a lemon blueberry skillet cookie with ice cream. I could have eaten 100 of them. A delightful evening and I wish I remembered my servers name because they were fantastic too!
