Was in the area and needed lunch, so we popped in. Lots of seating for a midweek lunch (parking in…read morethat area is another story...). Server was very friendly and attentive, lots of options for drinks. Pizza is for sure on the high side pricewise, sandwich was a little high, as well. That said... WOW. The sandwich is packed full and had a great balance of flavors and the pizza was some of the best I've had lately (and we currently live in a really incredible pizza city). Ruse makes great beer consistently, and both IPA's I tried were very solid. I'd normally cringe at the price, but the pizza was really amazing. Perfect balance of flavors that made every bite an exeperience. Not afraid to load up the roasted garlic and toppings, so you're getting a heavy pizza for the price - even if the size isn't immediately impressive. Will for sure pop in again.

They had World Cup on the tv and the service was great! Please note you can't be seated until your full party is there so I waited at the bar which is also fun. Every pizza ordered was excellent. We loved the light airy crust with the crispy edges. My friend subbed for gluten free and it was the best she's tasted! I ordered the Green Knight because the sound of lemon ricotta was too irresistible. So good! We all ordered a pizza each and went home with leftovers to enjoy again. The beers were refreshing and I'll have to check out the cocktails next time. Will be back!

I'm a fan of Breakside beers but this location isn't as great for me since it's so loud between…read moremusic and the acoustics of the building. You have to see the host for seating but then order at the bar or through your phone. Phone ordering is fine - sometimes it's easier if you're not in a rush to order and then at some point your order will come. They do have a great deal, which is $15 for a cheese burger and a pint. Their white tea ale right now is great. Food was meh to pretty great, depending on the dish. I'd skip the fried tofu and chicken wrap but stick with the burgers and pretzels. Overall I prefer the Beaverton location with the food carts.

Sara and Lace behind the bar craft cocktails that are personable and perfectly executed. But the real surprise is the kitchen: Trevor (formerly of Interurban) and George (ex-St. Jack's) bring a level of culinary curation you simply don't expect at a neighborhood spot. We ask a lot of questions when food is this good -- and they always deliver answers worth hearing. Exceptional quality at very reasonable prices. This place is a gem."

Hubby had the Chicken Enchilada. He said it was OK. I had the Pan Seared Trout. I didn't care for the Broccolini, so I asked to substitute, and the asparagus was an option. Everything else was delicious, as expected here, since this is our third visit here. We also ordered appetizer and sweets! All were very good! Many of the dishes were great. Environment was great.

They are genuinely happy. I've been here maybe a dozen times in the last two years, and the serving crew is always top notch. The cocktails are consistently great too. So, that goes a long way for repeat business! The food is usually excellent, and a recent brunch was outstanding (see pics). Occasionally, there has been a near miss with too much salt on the Brussels sprouts or other minor infraction like that. All in all, it has displaced Serrato as my "go to" to meet up with friends. I've only eaten outside, so I have no idea what the inside experience is like. Outside, it's a sheltered patio with heaters if needed and a few small tables against the building as well. Bonus for this area in general is that it's a great place to walk around and window shop, and it's relatively close to the Japanese and Rose Gardens (by car).
