The staff are hard working and friendly, & they do trivia night on Thursday and usually have a band every couple weeks on Saturday nights. The roll up door is definitely a cool touch. Breakfast is available on Fri-Sun and it's the best spot in town IMO. Their avocado toast is really go. They can be pretty busy at times but I've never had an unreasonable wait time... the back of house is as skilled and hardworking as the FOH. They do have a large space to accommodate bigger groups and are kid friendly on the side opposite the bar. There is a variety of seating types- tall tables, short tables and front row seats at the bar to choose from. I would definitely recommend making a trip to downtown Stayton to give this business a try.

I go to a lot of restaurants and this was so unexpectedly top notch. We stopped here randomly on…read morethe way through town and I wish there were more locations just like it. There were so many good options on the menu. Huge menu (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and really quality food. The service was good, friendly, and quick. The restaurant itself was big with high ceilings, open space, plenty of seating. I ordered the lime n coconut rice bowl with seared tuna and it was phenomenal. I also tried the cheeseburger and the mozzarella sticks. Both great. Their ranch seemed homemade which is always a big plus. If anyone is reading this who has ownership, please open a second location in Portland or Bend.

The inside is adorned with the cutest kitchen decor! It's a very small area but lots of seating available. You order at the counter and then they warm up your food for you. The woman running the counter was very friendly and has an incredible memory for everything ordered. The prices were so reasonable, dare I say cheap! The food we tried was all so delicious. We ordered 2 cheese bread sticks, 2 jalapeno popper bread sticks, 2 pepperoni bread sticks, a slice of meat lovers pizza, a pecan sticky bun, and a no bake cookie. Now we know that was far too much food and we only made it through one breadstick each.

Best kept secret hole-in-the-wall restaurant…read more After a beautiful hike around Silver Falls, we were famished. So we look up places for lunch. About 30 minutes away, we found this little Thai place, that we weren't 100% certain about, but it had gotten good reviews. So we traveled the 30 minutes to a town called Stayton, an entered this little strip mall, where our chosen place to eat was hiding towards the back. We were a little circumspect. It didn't look all that fabulous from the outside, but we noticed several tables enjoying their food. So we decided to take a chance. And we were so glad we did. We all ordered the pho, and I have to tell you... I have lived in a number of states in the US and a couple places overseas and this was really really good pho. This little gem had really fresh ingredients and we were not disappointed. Unfortunately, for us, because it is so far away from where we live in Portland and Beaverton, it will probably be a long time before we get back here, but if you live in the area or are ever visiting nearby, definitely stop in this little place that no one would look at twice. You'll thank me later.

But we are always up to try a different Thai restaurant. See photos. The vegetables were fresh. The Pad Thai noodles had good flavor. We are use to this dish not being as saucy. The Tom Kha soup was rich. The green curry had a great flavor. Even if you don't like eggplant or zucchini, the pieces are big enough to pick out like I did. No free refills on drinks. A pot of tea will refill the cup 3 times. The establishment is really clean, and the service is fast. This is a good second if one is in the area. We still have our favorite in Salem.

The only drawback to this location is the limited parking. It is in a small strip mall in Stayton that has about 15 parking spaces. Which would be fine, except there is also a Quizno's and a Taco place in the same mall, so parking can be a challenge sometimes.

It's actually pretty decent pizza! The crust is good and the ingredients seem fresh. We've tried…read moreboth the thin and regular crust. The problem is they are inconsistent. One time they give you so little sauce and so little meat or veggies, another time it's like they knew they screwed you last time and you get extra without asking lol. But too many times we have to add stuff. We now get extra tomatoe sauce to be sure since more often than not, they skimp on the tomatoe sauce. We've had the garlic chicken, which is very delicious but very heavy, we may get light on the white sauce next time and extra chicken since there wasn't much chicken. We've had the cowboy, no shortage of meat there! The Canadian bacon pineapple is where they skimp the most on literally everything. But what's there is delicious. Next we will try the veggies pizza. My only other complaint is the vegan cheese. They say they use Violife brand, but tastes worse than my store bought Violife. I compared their Violife shredded mozzarella with mine. Theirs is a slightly different color and much more tart. So if I was vegan, I'd get no cheese and add my own plant based cheese. Though with time I have grown to hate all the dairy free cheeses, I don't know why. Cheese just isn't duplicable I guess. But still, it's good they offer vegan cheese and vegan meat. On Tuesdays, the pizza is cheaper. It's much more than it used to be pre pandemic, but still better value than eating anywhere out, outside of cooking at home.
