She bent over backwards to help us incorporate all of our preferences, and the food was delicious---everything was perfect. I think Blossoms is the most professional wedding vendor in the Hood River Valley, hands down. I highly recommend them for any event-- you will not be disappointed by their delicious food or great service.

Blossoms catered our wedding last month and did an incredible job! The staff was so helpful and…read moreeasy to work with. Communication leading up to the wedding was clear and quick. The staff there really worked with us to make sure that all of our needs were met. I was so surprised and pleased to hear that they would pick up napkins (from a separate rental co.) the day before and have them folded prior to the wedding- I had expected that I would be doing that. They also printed up menus with colors of our choice and, upon request, noted vegan and GF options for guests. And the food, oh the food! Guests and vendors alike raved about the food that was served. The variety and quality of the appetizers and sides was amazing. The cedar-plank salmon was cooked perfectly. Guests really enjoyed the family-style service that we opted for. It felt great to be able to supply such a fantastic meal for our friends and family. We really appreciate the amazing crew at Blossoms and highly recommend them!!

Busy Bee Catering swooped in and saved the day with their "Sides-Giving" offerings fit for royalty! Their fluffy mashed potatoes and gravy were divine. Their chicken apple sausage stuffing was a show stopper, as was the relish tray (as big as a trough for my goats), roasted vegetables and Fall harvest salad topped with sinfully delicious candied pecans. I feel like getting married again so Busy Bee Catering can handle the food. Thank you so much! You'll be seeing me and my hungry tummy again SOON!

They were amazing to work with and so calm and wise to keep this MOTG relaxed to enjoy the events. The quotes were more reasonable than others and food/flavor/freshness/presentation not compromised. I had wanted our son to go with the PDX caterer and Jan & Dani were definitely the best choice. You can't go wrong with them. We also used them at Alpine Events for our rehersal dinner with 52 people and the dinner was fabulous and the event space so lovely and personal for our gathering. Jan & Dani even decorated with the runners/candles/banner and flowers that we dropped off while at the rehersal. I can't say enough about them! Janey

When Mark responded to my initial inquiry with a menu proposal with delicious and gourmet-sounding dishes that completely hit the nail on the head (the only change we ended up making was subbing salmon for chicken since we knew we'd be having salmon at the wedding), complete with passed appetizers and strawberry shortcake for dessert (one of our favorites!), and all at a price far lower than any of the other caterers in the area had quoted for us, I feared it might be a little too good to be true, but recommendations via online reviews and word of mouth convinced us to forge ahead and I'm so happy we did. Mark was super responsive and accommodating throughout the process, the servers were courteous and professional, and (most importantly), the food was as delicious as it sounded!! Everyone kept raving about the evening and the food was a big part of that. I highly highly recommend them for any sort of catered event you might be planning in the area.

Today we got the beef cheeks (deliciously tender and fatty), 2 types of smoked sausages, pork burnt ends, the BEEF RIB (to die for), and for sides we got Mac n cheese, and the brisket birria baked beans. About $120 all in. Nice being able to grab a few beers while we waited in line at Ruse Brewing. The food, grasslands bbq community, and the good vibes are really something special and worth the wait. We are blessed in the NW. 10/10 I'd recommend them to anyone visiting Oregon.

The atmosphere is casual and inviting but the food, both quality and presentation, steals the show. We tried a gin cocktail that was as beautiful as it was inventive. We followed this with the brussel sprouts salad which was lightly roasted but still tasted and looked green in the most delightful way, with some kind of light dressing that celebrates the vegetables in the salad medley without overpowering them. We took Calvin's recommendation and ordered the special which was a three mushroom fettuccine: it was perfection. The pasta was served al dente, the mushrooms included shitake, hedgehog, and one other and all had a unique flavor that stood out with each bite. The pasta sauce was buttery but somehow almost effervescent, embracing but not suffocating, with just enough cheese to know it's there but not enough to have it overpower the dish. At this point we didn't think the meal could get any better but then we ordered the pear, huckleberry, and pluot sorbet made at Celilo and we're now committed to coming back. The sorbet featured locally sourced Bosc pears and that flavor may have been my favorite as it was unlike any other sorbet I have ever tasted. All were sweet but complex. Simply an amazing dining experience that I recommend to anyone fortunate enough to get a table here!

Ordered cheese plate and uncharged for gluten free crackers. My husbands burger was dry and tasteless and very small. The fries were delicious though. I ordered Italian sausage pasta with gluten free pasta. The gluten free pasta was decent but it came with cooked radishes, who cooks radishes?? And a baby boy choy on top very strange combination. We had rhubarb ice cream for dessert very tasty but again the rude bartender was only going to give us one scoop to share until he informed us that it was served in a tiny espresso cup so luckily we ordered our own. Will not go back.

I'd give Riverside Restaurant a solid 4.5 stars based on our breakfast visit…read more I ordered the chilaquiles, and they were excellent, flavorful, still pleasantly crunchy where they should be, and just a really strong version of the dish. Definitely the standout of the table for me. Service was friendly and expedient, which I always appreciate in the morning when everyone is trying to get caffeinated and out the door. My companions ordered the protein bowl, which was a hearty mix of grains and grilled vegetables with your choice of tofu or egg. It leaned a little bland flavor-wise, but it did exactly what it needed to do: provided a filling, healthy base for a full day of activity in Hood River. Not every dish was a knockout, but overall it was a very solid breakfast spot with fair pricing at about $18 per dish.

The food was OK nothing to write home about. I had lemonade for dinner it was $6.00 a glass and if you wanted another glass it was 6.00 again. They also included the tip on your bill and it was 22%. The server did not earn that high of a tip.

Their $5.50 lunch special includes one large slice of pizza with a choice of two toppings from their generous list which includes specialty items like smoked oysters, jalapeños and artichoke hearts. In addition, the special includes the drink of your choice! Our plan was to grab a quick bite to eat so we could power through to dinner, but because the lunch special was so robust, we ended up delaying dinner by several hours. The restaurant is located on the highway going through the center of town, offers ample parking, and is staffed by friendly folks. I highly recommend this place if you're driving through Bingen.
