    Calzones & Cookies? Oh yeah!
    Jennifer S.

    What can you order at 11 pm on a Wednesday night in Eugene? Calzones, your choice of toppings and ingredients and warm fresh baked cookies! Within walking distance of fraternity row, we were lucky to find this local favorite. Better yet, everything is fresh and cooked to order. There were cartoons on the tube and a group of kids waiting for their orders. Despite it being a late mid-week night, business was booming. Delivery drivers dropped in to grab orders while others stopped by for their carry-out. It was was evident this was a popular spot, as seen by all the fan art on the bulletin board. The calzones were served piping hot with a side of sauce - we both chose marinara. The cheese was perfectly stringy and manageable cut in half. I didn't get to try the pepperoni, but my spinach calzone was savory and filling. Our cookie choices were chocolate chip, sugar, oatmeal and peanut butter. I'm so glad we tried all of them, and think the oatmeal stole the show. Do your tastebuds a favor and make your way to Dough Co. when in Eugene. You can thank me later!

    I can't say anything about the service or the ambience since this was an online order. But this calzone is delicious, and the marinara sauce that went with it is good too! Yum! Good place to find pizza calzones!

    My go to past 8pm , the staff are always so friendly , and kind . I normally order for delivery & it always shows up hot (unless I get ice cream/milk , that's always perfectly cold) cookies are always fresh , calzones made perfect EVERY TIME , fast deliveries and the best ranch .

    Ok, I understand now. I understand why this place is so popular. I understand why my husband's face lite up when I suggested ordering lunch from here. The calzones are pretty magical. I ordered the pesto calzone and it gave me everything I would want. Doughy crust with a little crisp. Delicious ingredients. An incredible cheese pull. I can see the appeal of why this is a busy place into the late hours and a favorable spot for college students. I couldn't eat here regularly. This is definitely a once in a while meal. At least now I know where I'm going for the next time I'm craving a cheesy treat.

    My first visit. Ordering was easy. Huge menu board. Very straight forward. Order at counter. They bring it outside to you. 15-20 mins for ours. Most meat calzone, and steak bomb calzone. Ordered 4 sugar cookies to end with. So delicious will definitely be back!

    Ham and pineapple calzone, supposed to be 1. Cheese Calzone

    Made a doordash order for 1 cheese calzone, 1 bbq chicken calzone, and 1 batch of cookies. (screenshot in photos, and photos of the calzones I got as well) I received the correct cookies, and then recieved 2 completely wrong calzones. I got one ham and pineapple (only monsters eat cooked pineapple) and one mystery one we can't distinguish what it is but looked like it at bacon in it? Anyways tried calling them and not only didn't they refuse to correct the order, they were awfully rude and unprofessional. Doordash also isn't helpful. Sucks paying $35+ on basically just 4 cookies, considering the wrong calzones are gross. 10/10 DON'T recommend, unfriendly company. ADDED EDIT - dough likes to lie their ways into disregarding bad reviews, just own up to when you guys suck instead of trying your best to make the reviewer bad. I'm also not the kind of person to be so negative but this was a horrible experience considering I do like their food.

    A staple restaurant in Eugene! As a college student who loves late night adventures with friends, this restaurant is awesome. The calzones are amazing and the cookies taste like heaven! I've been to this joint countless times. Food is great and the service is wonderful!

    Another angle for good measure. You can totally tell that someone hates their job just enough not to follow basic heath standards.

    I enjoyed dough co until this very moment. There was hair in my food, manger didn't offer a refund or an apology just blamed night crew. Customer service in store is horrible and on the phone. I ordered delivery a couple of times previously and all was fine until today. I was enjoying my meatball calzone and then I went to take a bite I noticed a short black hair in my my crust (which by the way was over cooked). I immediately called the store and asked to speak to a manager and was told that I was speaking to one as I mentioned before. I explained that there was a hair in my food and he asked what color, and when I told him he said no one here has that color hair today, might have been night crew. He offered to replace it and make a new one but I'm just too disgusted to try to give you all another chance. A refund would have been great. Never coming here/ ordering again.

    Overcooked please hire somebody in that kitchen that knows timing on food and knows how to season it

    I've never really felt the need to leave a bad review before but given this place suspiciously has…read morea 4.1 average, I feel compelled. I will also say, I worked in restaurants for almost 8 years and I am VERY understanding of costs and the possibilities of off days. But this place is honestly ridiculous. First of all, I did a to-go order, so my review is completely about that experience, the food, and the cost. I do not have a review of the service. $18 dollars for a breakfast burrito sounded crazy, but since it was my bad not checking the prices, I went through with it. The food was not at all worth $18. It was bland and soggy, not moist or juicy from the sausage, just soggy. The flavor of the sausage was good but other than that the burrito was completely bland. The home fries on the side were pretty tasty but I didn't even want them and would've preferred them inside the burrito or not included at all for a lower price. My main reason for leaving 1 star and not maybe 2 or even 3 is that they charge a 10% gratuity on to-go orders which, to me, is unacceptable. I generally tip about that much on my own for to-go (20-35% if I eat in for people who think I'm awful lol), but given the food is ridiculously overpriced I was unsure if I would this time. Them making that decision for me without any heads up ensures I will never come back here again. A small note on ambience; the place is stinky. As I said, I didn't sit down so take this with a grain of salt, but when I walked in I was blasted with a musty and kind of dirty smell that would've had me not wanting to stay for a meal. I honestly feel bad writing this review but this place does not deserve the communities continued business unless they SERIOUSLY up their game. I don't believe I will ever be back but hopefully they improve and actually live up to the 4.1 rating that they have. There are many, many better tasting and more affordable options throughout Eugene, even places with much lower ratings.

    There are restaurants that seduce you with promise, and others that test your patience before…read morerevealing their intent. Lion & Owl, on this particular morning, proved to be both--a place of evident talent, yet uneven discipline, where flashes of brilliance are offset by lapses that no serious kitchen should permit. Let us begin with the triumph. The buckwheat pancakes arrive not merely as breakfast, but as a composition. A stack of admirable loft and structure--evidence of a properly developed batter, handled with restraint and precision. The crumb is airy yet resilient, each bite yielding gently before dissolving into a delicate nuttiness inherent to buckwheat. A caramelized banana sauce pools generously, glossy and fragrant, its sweetness tempered by the cultured tang of crème fraîche. Toasted coconut chips scatter across the top like crisp punctuation, lending both aroma and texture. This is cooking that understands balance--sweetness checked by acidity, softness lifted by crunch, comfort elevated by technique. It is, quite simply, a five out of five dish. The kitchen, here, remembers what it means to nourish and delight. And then--alas--we encounter its counterpoint. The mushroom brioche toast, in conception, should be a study in harmony: buttery bread, earthy fungi, silken eggs, fresh greens. Yet the execution falters at its very foundation. The brioche--so essential, so central--is pushed past the threshold of caramelization into bitterness. In a bread so rich with butter and sugar, precision is everything; overcook it, and the entire structure collapses under a shadow of char. The garnish, too, feels careless--large stems of greenery draped without intention, rather than composed with purpose. It is a dish that looks promising from a distance but betrays its flaws upon inspection. A two out of five--a failure not of imagination, but of discipline. The brie and truffle macaron arrives as an afterthought--set aside, unannounced, uncentered, as though it were a spare utensil rather than a composed pastry. Presentation matters. It signals care. Here, there is none. And the macaron itself? A confection that should whisper with delicacy instead resists with age. The shell is hardened, the interior overly chewy--signs of time having passed unkindly. The flavor is confused: a sweet, almost vanilla shell encasing a mild, savory filling of whipped brie and timid truffle. Neither side asserts itself; neither yields to the other. It is neither dessert nor savory course, but a muddled compromise. A two out of five, and left unfinished--a silent verdict more damning than words. The mimosa, I am told, is bright and pleasing, though presented without flourish--a small omission, but telling in a restaurant aspiring to polish. A four out of five, competent yet unadorned. The pour-over coffee reveals a lighter roast profile: bright acidity at the fore, a nutty mid-palate, a gently lingering finish. It is, as you observed, "hipster coffee"--intentionally expressive, though perhaps too acidic for a more classical palate. On flavor alone, a three out of five. Yet the experience is marred by a most unforgivable intrusion: a hair in the initial cup. Such a thing should never reach a guest. Ever. And beyond the plate--there is service. Dishes arriving out of sequence. Eggs meant for one guest appearing with another's delayed entrée. A table divided, one diner finished while the other waits. Explanations that do not align with reality. Items placed without acknowledgment or intention. These are not minor stumbles; they are fractures in the very architecture of hospitality. The Verdict Lion & Owl is a restaurant caught between what it is capable of and what it consistently delivers. There is real talent in this kitchen--evident in the pancakes, in the conceptual ambition of the menu, in flashes of thoughtful composition. But talent without rigor is unreliable. And hospitality without coordination is hollow. For every moment of genuine pleasure, there is another of carelessness--overcooked bread, stale pastry, inattentive plating, lapses in cleanliness, and disjointed service. In the end, one must judge the whole, not the highlights. Overall score: 2 out of 5. A restaurant with promise--undeniably--but one that must remember that excellence is not achieved in moments. It is achieved in consistency, in care, and in respect for the guest at every stage of the meal. Until then, Lion & Owl remains... a place that almost is.

Busy but they had a table for us. Very nice decor, rotating menu. We had the buckwheat pancakes with caramelized bananas, dates, and pineapple syrup which was sweet but not overly so since the pancakes underneath were not touched by the syrup ended up being a really nice balance. Bacon was like a cross between pork belly and bacon (very thick) but really tasty. Breakfast Sando was good with in-house ground pork and a nice aioli. We also tried the savory macarons (Brie and truffle) which are delicious. Creamy and a tad sweet. Not too much truffle. Coffee was a bright tangy pour over-not my favorite type but some people really like that style. Oh, and we had a blood orange mimosa which was really good Overall an excellent experience! Definitely going to again when we are in town!

We were happy to see that while they were fairly busy, they were quick to put together a table to accommodate us right away.

In addition to American breakfast classics they offer Mexican-inspired dishes such as Huevos Rancheros and Chilaquiles. Our server came by and welcomed us and took our drink orders. In addition to the natural offerings of coffee and assorted juices they offer specialty coffees ranging from a standard iced coffee to white mochas, cappuccinos, dirty chai tea latte's and Mexican mochas. As we began to peruse the menu we immediately noticed their prices are extremely reasonable, which is always appreciated. Everything on the menu sounded really yummy and we each made our selections. Our table ordered items including the Linguica Scramble, Pancakes, and Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches. The restaurant had a good steady stream of customers but they appeared to be able to handle the amount of people and we didn't notice anyone wait more than a couple of minutes to be seated. We also observed a good amount of to-go/Door Dash traffic. Our orders arrived in a timely manner and looked delicious.

Since I was sitting in the back of the booth, I could only see two other tables that were along the windows and the traffic going by in the dark. Next time we'll ask not to sit in a booth so we can see more of the restaurant. Our server informed us that the public house was split into two sections. We were in the full-service restaurant part and there was a more casual (order at the counter?) section by the front door for people that just wanted to grab a beer and sit at a communal table. Our server was excellent. Not the typical Eugene service from him! He answered our questions about the beers and brought us tastes and had all the answers ready about the food. They were out of two things (understandable at such a new spot) but I noticed that they had already changed their menu a few times in the few short weeks they've been opened. Yay for seasonal menus!! Our party went super basic and we all ordered the Butter Burger (the butter is mixed into the patty so it helps the burger caramelize) which came with fries. We also split the grilled potato salad(served chilled), which was a good sized portion to split with our group of five. My kiddo got the wings (sauceless) and fries. We'll be back to try more of the menu items and sit at a table without walls.
