We have eaten here a couple of times since it opened which allowed us to try a lot of the options on the menu. Everything we have tried tasted great. We appreciate that it is fresh local ingredients that come together to make delightful dishes. So far our favorites are the beet salad, roasted chicken, and today's chef cut (bavette steak). The meatballs in a mushroom sauce are also really good. The atmosphere is very friendly and upbeat. The staff is attentive and professional.

We had a lovely dining experience here. Both mixed drinks were excellent and they have an extensive wine list as well. The burger was one of the large plates and the pasta was a small plate. For dessert we had house made Oreos with milk. Every dish and drink really highlighted the main ingredient. I think this place is a great addition to downtown and I'm excited to see what other great things they come up with!

This place is awesome! The staff are all really nice, and the food is so delicious! The rotating menu with locally-sourced food is fun. We had the pork belly with roasted hazelnuts (mohthwateringly good), the meatballs, the cheese plate, the current special of roasted chicken, drinks, and the wine-roasted pear. All were incredible.

Wow, fantastic food sourced from all local farmers and providers. Food was great, shout-out to the Albacore Confit. Wildly delicious and set the stage for the following amazing dishes. Rainbow trout and Quince and Quail, both were fantastic. Can't wait for our next visit, and if you haven't tried it, you should.

Went here for an anniversary date with my husband and everything was fabulous! We enjoyed beet tartar and sourdough bread to start, then pasta and turkey pot pie, followed by a smores tart. Our server was attentive and friendly!! She even brought us a non-alcohol spritzer to toast with after finding out we don't drink alcohol. Definitely will be back

We have been there twice now and both times left really happy with our experience. Tonight we were able to sneak away for a date night on a whim and didn’t have a reservation. The staff was more than accommodating and after seating us at the bar, they were able to make it work for us to have a table, despite it being a busy night for them. We really appreciated the great customer service and food/drinks. It is rare that customer service stands out these days but both times we have visited this restaurant the stellar service has stood out to us. This paired with the great food makes it a no brainer. We will be back! 🙂

I went here for my birthday and it was the perfect evening! Our waitress was so fun and knowledgeable and made me feel so special! Our food was all fantastic and tasted like real farm fresh food. Beautiful presentation. Felt so satisfied and good after eating the food here. Thank you!

So good, had to come back twice! The service is impeccable- staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The Sunday chicken dinner is amazing, as is the Saturday brunch. Everything was cooked to perfection, and the salty and sweet balance was perfect. The squash hazelnut dish is incredible. This is cooking and hospitality at its best!

Four of us had an excellent dinner last Saturday night. Terrific service from the whole staff (kudos to Grace & the Wine Director) who were so knowledgeable, pleasant and gracious. The food was quite interesting and delicious with two of us, who are by no means vegeterians, choosing vegeterian entrees and loving them and our cocktails and wine were all big hits. The restaurant has a nice vibe with tables set with good sized spacing between them. Highly recommend.

While off to a rocky start, Grounded Table was a great dinner to wrap up our weekend in Willamette Valley. While our table wasn’t ready when we entered at our reservation time, the staff quickly got us drinks that were then ready for us when our table was available shortly thereafter. The staff was super sweet and very helpful with the menu and dietary restrictions. For food, highly recommend the homemade cavatelli. The sage, butter, and crushed hazelnuts were the perfect combination you didn’t know you needed. Decadent without going overboard. The half chicken seemed a little small, but was moist, had a great flavor, and was delicious. The whole trout was a beautiful combination of flavors and textures. Somewhat thin, but great combo with the ham hock and fried brussel sprout leaves. The Turkey schnitzel…wow. The breading on the turkey was light and crispy, combined with the marionberry agrodolce and vinegar dressing. Match made in heaven and highly would recommend. Definitely leave room for dessert — the cookies and milk dessert was the elevated Oreos and milk you grew up having. Simple and fantastic. We ended our meal with some after dinner drinks to which the sommelier was incredibly helpful and kind, explaining what was available and the corresponding tasting notes. Great meal that more than made up for our delayed start. Would definitely come back.
