Albacore confit

Went here tonight and it was amazing! Food was inventive and playful. Our waitress, Stevie was incredibly helpful and super sweet. We saw first hand how well they treated their repeated patrons but felt treated the very same on our first visit. The place is inviting. Comfortable but modern at the same time. Cocktails were new and delicious ! The food was adventurous and playful at the same time. I would recommend it so anyone!

[gluten free review] Here's the deal. Double cheeseburger, fries. Forget the gf bun- go lettuce instead. If your comrades are gluten eaters, they're going to go for it. The bun and all. The fried chicken is good if you're there on a mon/tues. DONT SKIP THE ROASTED VEGGIES. This is a winner every night. For those deserving of a sweet treat, the ice cream flavors are interesting and also delicious- but the real winner is the TRFO. even if you scrape some of the middle off and don't eat the cookie (gf-ish) they're worth it. Their line up of local and imported selections for wine are extensive. My favorites of the list are are Corallary bubbles, and Ken Wright Hirschy Pinot noir. Whether you're after a full dinner or you are just looking for a cocktail or brunch spot, humble spirit will be a favorite in McMinnville and continues to be a top of the list selection for me! Plus, this is always a great place for a relaxing night out or a date night - ambiance is flexible!

Dungeness Crab Benedict
Gary Q.

Located in Downtown McMinnville, this elegant, mildly upscale American restaurant oozes with Willamette Valley charm. McMinnville is in the heart of Oregon wine country, and sports a thriving downtown peppered with wineries, art and restaurants. Once inside, you will notice that the interior would work well as an art gallery. That vibe carries over to the food and service. Our waitress was charming and talkative (which we like), and she helped steer us to the right food. She also explained that the restaurant started from two regenerative farms, which we also like. We ordered coffee, the Corned Beef Hash, and the Dungeness Crab Benedict. Since the it arrives first, it is possible to guess at the quality of the food by how good the coffee is. In this case it was excellent. Expectations were high. The Hash: The corned beef was cut into chunks, not pulled apart like it normally is. It did not have the flavor you would normally expect, yet it was excellent and slightly crispy, with a baked egg in the center. Their house-made hot sauce goes well with it. The Benedict: Served on a crab cake instead of English muffin with greens over top, along with radish strips. The Hollandaise is delicate, and does not overpower the crab. All in all, it was an excellent meal. We plan to return when we are in the area.

Moroccan poached egg
Roger M.

Extraordinary brunch, food, service, and ambience triple winner, winner winner! Brunch or dinner! Ingredients produce and meat (hundred percent grass fed) sourced and organics from local affiliates, including. We were with friends everybody's food was scrumptious per their taste buds delight. We had the corned beef hash with potatoes and an egg with big chunks of corned beef, hash prepared in a way we have not had before that was awesome. Also, the Moroccan dish featured two poached eggs, floating in a sea of cabbage and tomato somewhat puréed with scrumptious aromatic Moroccan spices. Suggest a reservation and enjoy!

Squash mezzaluna

Went to humble spirit and really enjoyed the food and service! We got the fresh and pickled vegetables to start which was FANTASTIC. The Ceasar salad was delish and unique as well. We shared the chicken, burger and the stuffed pasta and all were good but I think the chicken and burger stood out. Would definitely come back! The only kind of weird thing was they only have a 5 minute grace period. I feel like standard is 10-15 and especially at a place where parking isn't super easy 5 minutes is tough!

Our server Chris !!!!! Which is Amazing and knowledgeable about every single musical food note in this place!!!!!!!!

What an eclectic ambiance this restaurant has very minimalist, clean if I were drinking a nice Chardonnay I will say crip and fresh. We were greet by a very friendly hostess name sky and the wine director O'Malley , what pleasant hostess they are . We sat at Chris section, since we were first timers he explained the concept of the restaurant and dishes . We started with osetra caviar from tsar Nicoulat with accompaniment of crème fraiche and house made chips with herbs powder made out dehydrated herbs from the farm, amazingly fresh and crispy we pair it with Corollary sparkling rose , just what th Dr. recommended with the caviar!!!!!!! We continued with Heirloom beef tartare horse radish crème fraiche , and cured yolk from the farm , is so tasty and light with the wavy accent of the slight radish crème fraiche, perfect amount of radish like a delicate kiss . We continued our culinary journey with the smoked TRF pot pie, that refers to their farms name , that pot pie comes with biscuits house made , WOW comforting dish elevated for an unforgettable night at Grounded Table, I want that recipe , we also ordered the aged Rib stake , we choose a Pinot noir by glass 1789 from a winery that is not longer making wines but O'Malley had 2 cases of it, we were drinking and eating stories of scotch and the wine that we choose , how an amazing experience has been coming to this restaurant , smelling 1789 is like been in Burgundy smelling rose petals, lavender, AMAZING!!!!!!!!to finish we ordered their 3 desserts tries milk, chocolate hazelnut tart and their sticky pudding , I am crazy about desserts. While waiting I love how the whole team watches over the table, what a service and to define Grounded table is equal to hospitality from the back of the house to the front . I can't wait to come back , this is a place where you sit down and enjoy your dishes and the staff will take care of the rest !!!!!!!! What an Amazing culinary- dining experience was for us been in such a restaurant where they take care of the smallest details !!!!! I just wish an excellent future for this restaurant, where hospitality is define !!! Last but not least to the kitchen , I feel their pride and love in every single dish!!!!!! Makes me emotional to eat in a place where everyone is a professional !!!! See you , when we come back to Mcminville

Our first visit to Humble Spirit was on a whim on a Friday. The restaurant is on the smaller side and they were full with reservations, but kindly offered a seat at the bar. We took it, and happily as their bar counter is absolutely stunning! I think it might quartz and while I normally prefer table seating, I'd happily imbibe in a meal at that gorgeous bar anytime. We've since returned several times and can wholeheartedly recommend anything in the menu. If you need somewhere to start, though, the cheeseburger (which sure, might sound a little boring) is my husband's favorite and sure to please anyone, not to mention the fries are thin, crispy, and the epitome of fry perfection. My favorite dinner dish is the albacore confit. It is fresh, satisfying and filling, without being heavy. And the scallion mayo?! Yum! They also make in house soft serve ice cream in a varying rotation of flavors, which sounds so dreamy, but we are always too stuffed to try it! Lastly, I generally go for boring water, but my husband loves their Bloody Mary and most particularly the old fashioned made with pork fat washed bourbon. They offer brunch Saturday and Sunday, and this is a great time to try out Humble Spirit. We've never needed a reservation if we arrive first thing, and you get to have possibly my favorite item they serve, the donuts! Now, I love sugar, but donuts don't tend to be my desired vehicle for sweetness. That is, until I met Humble Spirit's incredible rendition. I am a chocolate gal always, but I honestly cannot choose between the rich dark chocolate and the cinnamon sugar variety. Both are not too sweet, served warm, and guaranteed to knock your socks off. The few times we've had brunch and skipped the donuts I've regretted it. Do yourself a favor and order both. The corned beef hash is also exemplary (those crispy potatoes?! I could eat a whole bowl of them alone!). Service is chill and friendly. Prices are average for a nicer spot and absolutely worth it. Parking is only available on the street. I tend to avoid parking on third and utilize the lots on 2nd, but for brunch you can sometimes get a spot right out front.

The Pub sauces
Sandra L.

Beautifully renovated space. The Pub is exactly what McMinnville needed but didn't know they needed. I immediately felt at home and comfortable sitting at the bar. The staff is friendly and informative. The menu is small but adequate smart and well curated with something for everyone. We ordered the Smashburger with fries, a Cucumber Gin cocktail and a Davis St Sour. The burger was incredible in fact it is now one of my favorite in all of Yamhill county. The meat is quality, smashed to perfection juicy and flavorful. The griddled onions and melty smoked Gouda are the icing on the cake. The bun slathered with fancy sauce and B&B pickles put this burger over the top. The price is a tad high but the quality soon makes you forget the $19 price tag. We added a beautiful sunny side up egg for an extra $3 which was well worth splurge. The fries are thin cut perfect and salty. We had fun trying all the homemade sauces my personal favorite is the sweet coffee bbq sauce. I dipped and dunked my fries and burger feeling like a kid in a candy store. Excited to go back and try the crispy Chicken Sandwich. I have the feeling The Pub will be on our weekly rotation.

I want to go back for the breakfast everyone is raving about! We went for dinner and had a so-so time. Staff was kind. Decor was lovely. Food was good. My only issue was all our food came out at once. When I go out to dinner, I like to pace my courses: drinks, then salad, then main, finishing with dessert. We were in and out in 1 hour. Not my ideal dining experience.

I am told...They had great alcoholic beverages (said half of our party-not everyone had alcohol). The food was mixed reviews. 1) steak bites were delicious. Blue cheese butter is thebomb.com. 2) everything else was sub par. Burger was supposed to be med-rare, came out well done/jerky. Pizza was raw dough, not melted cheese and they pulled it "because the sides were burning." They could have put foil around it and actually cooked it. OR recommend we stick with regular pizza dough when we confirmed we don't have an allergy but was wanting a "lighter" low carb pizza. They also had an anecdote of another customer who ordered the cauli pizza but served them regular dough and it was a true food allergy and a problematic experience for the customer (??? Why would you choose to share that? lol). Tbh a nuked hot pocket will cook the cheese better than our pizza was. Salads were ok. Nothing to rave about. Desserts were ok I'm told. Didn't have any myself. I was done at that point. Service needs improvement. Not just weird PTSD patronage stories shared, but I felt bad dragging family out to the area so I tried paying without them knowing, slipping the credit card toward the waitress without everyone at the table noticing. And she knocked the card out of my hand when reaching for plates, announcing that "your credit card fell." I don't care if it was my bday or not I wasn't going to make my family pay for this meal. I would not come back and I don't recommend it. For everything it was ~$160 +40 tip which I feel salty about giving considering the quality of our meal and service. I'm a good tipper regardless of experience because it's the right thing to do/pay it forward, etc. but I was pissed driving home lol for $200 I could have picked up steak and lobster and cooked at home.

Well hello again, folks! We know how this goes... I'm a brunch SNOB and it's the most difficult…read more5-star review to get from me. I'm picky and whiny when it comes to perfecting brunch. Crescent Cafe, kudos, you've done it again! We discovered Crescent about a year ago at the recommendation of a friend who used to live in McMinnville. We tried it then and we were very pleased with our experience. We returned again today. Met by a friendly staff, we did have a bit of a wait but that was on us... we failed to make a reservation. Nonetheless, it was worth the wait! They accommodated all 6 of us in less time than predicted. We were seated at a lovely table in the front of the restaurant and met by a lovely waitress who was so bubbly, friendly, and kind. Coffees showed up quickly and our orders were taken quite promptly. The atmosphere was lively and the staff was attentive. Food. They just do dang good here. First, yes we know what is coming now... THEY KNOW HOW TO COOK AN EGG TO ORDER! Second, the food is fresh and piping hot... hashbrowns are perfectly crisp, and the ham was delish! Overall, what more can I say? Huge portions, we each ate / drank cofee for ~$20/each and left with leftover boxes. Crescent Cafe knows how to do brunch. They thrive in all areas, you can't go wrong. Next time you're in McMinnville for the weekend, make sure you stop in for a fabulous brunch!

It was also tender and moist. So good! They also do a mean poached egg (those are hard and can be messed up easily). Friendly service, hometown feel, yummy food.

First off - this place has no right to be as absolutely adorable, cozy, and phenomenal as it is!…read moreThe Dundee Bistro is tucked away in this tiny little wine country town in Oregon, and it's truly the perfect stop for a delicious lunch, a glass of local wine, or just to browse their charming little market. Inside, they have a small shop area featuring locally made goodies: honey, cheeses, cured meats, wines, and other treats. You order at the walk-up counter where the menu includes freshly made sandwiches, soups, chilis, salads, and other local favorites. Everything is made to order and comes out quickly. I ordered the Dundee Grinder, and it was absolutely fantastic, packed with flavor and definitely not stingy on the ingredients. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality and freshness of the food. The staff was kind, helpful, and efficient, which made the whole experience even better. There are a few tables inside and a lovely outdoor patio in the back with a fireplace and a rain cover, perfect for enjoying your meal no matter the weather. Every little detail here, from the food to the ambiance, feels so thoughtful and welcoming. If you're in the Dundee area or wine tasting nearby, this spot is a must-visit. I'll definitely be recommending it to anyone heading this way!

The appetizers were delicious and fed a large party without us having to order multiples of each dish. For an entree, I had the pork, which I felt was a bit overcooked and lacking in flavor. One of the things I found oddest about the evening was the hours of the restaurant. We dined here on a Saturday night at 7:30 - immediately after we were sat we were told we needed to order promptly because the kitchen closes at 8:00. I still don't quite understand why you would allow reservations so close to a kitchen's closing time. It ended up making the meal feel a bit rushed and lackluster. Overall, it was a perfectly adequate meal but I'm not sure I would need to stop in here again.
