I'm giving them the missing star. Nothing has really changed: The pizza remains about as good or…read morepassable as you're going to get West of Beaverton, the cocktail menu is still the best kept secret in town, and the live music makes it clear that any band that has a night off from the low-rollers' lounge at Spirit Mountain or Ilanai will always have a home... and that any plumber in this town can play Mustang Sally for an evening if they have a Home Depot bucket and no inhibitions. So what's the extra star for? For putting up with what we're going to call "The Downtown Hillsboro Clientele." This isn't everyone who shows up for a meal or a drink in Downtown Hillsboro, mind you, but everyone who makes that experience seem like their personal cross to bear. The Downtown Hillsboro Clientele starts the evening by complaining that they had to park half a block away from the restaurant when, just 10 years ago, they could park directly in front of it. The Downtown Hillsboro Clientele is shocked when it has to wait more than two minutes for a table. The Downtown Hillsboro Clientele is regularly baffled by a restaurant's core menu items. It recoils when seeing Spanish words used in tapas dishes. It asks if the sweet mango wings are spicy. It wonders if your well-reviewed izakaya has teriyaki dishes like the place in the strip mall. It asks for six different beer tasters, but never a flight. It complains that you put a sandwich on a bagel, then complains when that sandwich leaves the menu. It spits out garlic on a Margherita pizza. That last bit of tourist classism I just won't abide. It's one thing when some tronfio northerner looks down on a southern pizza eater for indulging in some garlic... it's another when some borioso 'medigan who took one cruise around the boot decides that makes them the Barefoot Contessa of Forest Grove. Unfortunately for your delicate little white-bread-and-ranch palate, not only will that offending garlic frequently make its way onto Pizza Marinara, but pizziolos who've actually eaten pizza in southern Italy at establishments devoid of tablecloths will tell you that garlic finds its way onto Pizza Margherita either in the sauce, in infused olive oil, or--gasp--in garlic powder. And this is really going to knock you on your ass, but East of the Mississippi? East of the Tualatin? Yeah, folks throw garlic on Margherita pies constantly. And you're going to knock points off because the basil's burnt? On a brick oven pizza? I'm attaching a photo of a margherita pizza upon which the basil is so scorched that it's basically chips. The place that pizza came from? Ken's Artisan: The best pizza in this entire state. That may be the last time you see me compare Pizzario to them, but if you're going to knock the place for what the best pizzamakers in the region regularly do... then I'm sorry, but just start ordering from Papa Murphy's. The Downtown Hillsboro Clientele will not be satisfied until there are a maximum of three restaurants downtown, each of those restaurants serves a menu out of a 1950s luncheonette, all of them close promptly at 8 p.m., and they're surrounded by no fewer than eight antique stores, 10 barber shops with owners over 80, and two mortuaries to shuffle those barbers and luncheonette regulars off this mortal coil. Downtown Hillsboro's biggest obstacle to growth isn't foot traffic, parking, or diversity of offerings--its an obstinate core of old cranks that refuses to learn anything modestly new even if staff holds their hand throughout the entire process. I credit Pizzario for doing the slow, patient work of converting the willing one new pizza, cocktail menu, and local band at a time. Downtown Hillsboro is changing adimirably in spite of the toddler palates and temperaments of its most thick-skulled Clientele.

I decided to order the Chicken Alfredo and had high expectations, yet I was not impressed. The alfredo sauce was a bit bland and noodles had a "raw" taste, were very chewy and not al dente at all. I really wanted to like this place and love supporting small businesses, but hopefully this was just a minor issue that can be resolved as I do see that most patrons really enjoyed their pasta. I will come back again to update my review,

They asked how hot I wanted the bolognese (never been asked that before), so I said hot, and they absolutely delivered. Portion was a good size and satiated me. The sauce and meat are rich, hearty, and deeply savory. The pasta has the perfect bite. Easily the best pasta I've ever had, which caught me off guard because I only expected to be full. Guy below me talking about the bolognese is on point about it being like a hot sauce applied but I don't care: delicious is delicious. The tanginess was welcome and anyone too pretentious to appreciate an actually spicy spicy bolognese should probably avoid food trucks outright.

The garlic wasn't overpowering and went well with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Both of us got salads - I had the arugula almond and my friend had the pear goat cheese. I paired the salad with the tomato focaccia and my friend had the lobster ravioli. The focaccia had a generous portion of tomatoes and paired nicely with the mozzarella and balsamic drizzle. It was nicely seasoned and not greasy. The lobster ravioli was tasty though the cream sauce was a little on the heavy side. We took the ravioli and focaccia back to our hotel. Service was friendly and our food arrived quickly. Restaurant wasn't crowded and we were seated right away. I just moved to Hillsboro for grad school and look forward to returning!

The flavors were pretty typical, no surprises, good or bad. Garlic bread was refilled as we waited. It's a solid meal, reasonably priced, and fills ya up. We would return for a casual family meal.

We started with a savory popover with charcuterie, then moved on to a scallop appetizer, seafood plate, spaghetti with morels and a napoleon for dessert. There was also a grapefruit ice palette cleanser. I ate everything with relish. This is the French way of eating, small plates which go together and space out the delights over the evening. All the ingredients were seasonal and fresh. The café is rather small and intimate, with mid-century decor and a friendly chef. I would not bring a large party as it's a small, home in the wall. Imagine you are in a small Parisian bistro and let yourself enjoy every minute.

This is a somewhat belated review, as my wife and I ate at Don's on April 3rd…read more This was our first visit to Don's in Beaverton. We knew that Beaverton is becoming a known foodie destination and Don's is an example of some of the higher-end restaurant options making an appearance. We were told Don's has been here a year already, so we're glad we found it. This is a small and intimate venue, something like only 6 tables. The kitchen is open for those who love to watch the chef do his thing. I usually love to do this myself, but I became so focused on enjoying the remarkable food that was placed before us that I forgot to watch. The server's name escapes me, but he was wonderful and good at his job! He also was the person who picked the wine pairings for the meal. And what an outstanding pairing it was! Would I recommend the wine parings? Yes, I would. Don's is not cheap experience, by the way. The dinner is pre-fixe, but the wine pairings have two options and prices: full glass or half-glass. My wife and I opted for the half-glass pairing and were pleasantly surprised this this sufficed perfectly with respect to both cost and amount of wine. One memorable pairing was the sparkling Reisling we were served with our oysters! Wow, so perfect and tasty! Who knew? Well, our server a.k.a. wine steward did, for sure. In fact, we loved every dish we were served! Pictures are below. I don't remember the specific names, unfortunately. Between our server and Don, we were well taken care of during our meal. As I mentioned the venue is small, so probably not a place you'd want to bring small children. This is more of a date night (if you really want to impress) or special occasion place, or for those times when you just want to treat yourself to a great meal experience, which is what brought us to Don's. We are feeling very fortunate to have finally discovered Don's Favorite Foods in Beaverton. We will definitely be back!
