Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Lake Oswego

Flavorful display of beautiful South American tapas style cuisine! Wagyu steak tartare, grilled octopus, and Brandt farms flat iron steak were among some of my favorites. The cocktails are delicious and beautifully garnished! I recommend the sangria! We will definitely be back to try the next “what the chef is eating” lineup!

I just wrote a glowing review that the app erased due to bad programming. So I’ll try to recreate my enthusiasm. We just had a wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner at Sushi Kuni. We are regular patrons of this amazing restaurant which is fortunately 3 minutes from our house m. It’s the best sushi place in Metro. Starting with the warm welcome Japanese-style greeting, Kuni has a wonderful vibe that includes service, layout, drinks, and food. The restaurant is divided into four sections that flow together but provide intimacy in each one. There are two bar areas, booths near the entrance, a small dining room with tables, and a booth area in back. These booths are open to the side but have Japanese-style partitions front and back. You can see other patrons but it feels private as well. We choose the excellent craft cocktails but there are sake flights and drinks, and wine/beer. We like the fact that the excellent sushi is complemented by lovely appetizers like eggplant in fish broth and potato croquettes. We have always chosen sushi as an entree but this time had the exquisite black cod in a savory sauce with rice on the side. And the charming Valentine’s Day special dessert with a cake/cookie base and chestnut paste filling, and a candied chestnut on top. For Valentine’s Day there were small pink neon lights that spelled “love.” Service is always impeccable, prompt, and friendly despite the fact that the restaurant was full for the event. The whole vibe on the occasion felt festive and full of happy couples. But it’s always a pleasure to eat at Kuni Sushi. Price is great for the exquisite quality of the food. With our two cocktails, two delicious and generous appetizers, silky savory sliced black cod with side of rice, and darling dessert, our bill came to $84 before tip. Why go anywhere else?

L’Orange was wonderful! It’s everything that the reviews say – – the food was sublime, the service was warm, courteous, and very knowledgeable about the entrées, and the ambience was delightful – – warm and cozy!  We were just passing through Portland, staying in the Airbnb across the street from the restaurant, and this was a find. We will definitely visit again! 💝

Arden consistently delivers amazing dishes, top notch service with a family feel. They do take chances, and occasionally a dish may not be exemplary but when they do they NAIL it!

we had the Reuben, fish and chips along with homemade tomato soup. Everything was great and the waiter was super attentive. We will go back.
