The Garden View Oregon Garden Resort

Great Christmas experience with my Wife, Mom, and our dear sweet friend. Love music and great drinks after we walked through the lights.

Much better than expected. My sirloin was cooked to perfection, my wife loved the seafood linguini. Service was very good and prices are very reasonable.

This is a cool resort but the restaurant is a bit sad. We had a 6:00 pm reservation and our food didn 't come till after 7:00. The description of wild caught salmon didn 't square with what was a freezer burned piece of salmon. My wife liked her salad, but that was about it. Friendly service but not a good meal. View menu

Excellent food. The gluten free pasta was perfectly cooked any so food. The portion sizes were perfect for us. I loved the clean resort. Wine was good at dinner. The lounge was very nice location. The live music was great. We listen to Dylan Santiago. The drinks in the lounge were inconsistent which was a bummer. I would stick to wine. I would definitely go back.

Two stars for staff being nice and it being clean! Went here for lunch with my spouse and ordered the French dip, it was so tough you couldn't get a bite without the entire piece of brisket coming out onto your plate, his burger was okay. On top of that we were one of two groups in the entire restaurant and were seated at opposite ends for them to turn around sit a table of 6 right next to us. We had to leave because of the noise level. Wouldn't recommend, especially for the price they charge for the food.

I thoroughly enjoyed eating lunch here with my friends from out of town who were staying at the resort. We ordered salads Caesar with grilled salmon for two of us and Cobb salad for the third person in our party which were delivered promptly and devoured by the three of us hungry people. We sat at a table overlooking the gardens, on a patchy clouds kind of day, and the view was gorgeous even though it's not quite spring and not much is in bloom or leafed out yet. My friends also had breakfast at the Garden View the following morning and said it was good and that they appreciated the included meal with their resort stay. I would definitely eat here again!

Two stars for the friendly staff. However, we've had two bad experiences at this restaurant, specifically for dinners. The dishes described on the menu sound great, however the reality has been extremely disappointing. On a previous visit my husband ordered a stuffed portobello mushroom. The only item used for the stuffing was zucchini. There was no goat cheese, spinach, etc., that was described in the menu. We sent it back. For my visit this week I ordered the zoodles with pesto. It was awful. I don't know what the green liquid that was used to dress the zoodles was, but it wasn't pesto. It was so watery they even served it with a soup spoon. Pesto is fresh basil, ground nuts, parmesan, gar...

The time here was for breakfast as part of our hotel stay. The view was ok on a foggy morning as all of the tables are booths and look out over the gardens. The lights for the festival can't be seen in the morning, but probably cool to be there at night for that. Breakfast consisted of sausage, scrambled eggs, fried potatoes, yogurt by the spoonful not individual containers, and toast. You serve yourself buffet style. We were there at 8 am on a Saturday and the ketchup and salsa were out as well as the sausage and toast. Give one of the employees a heads up on the sausage as the line was out the door. Food was mediocre and not hot. Plastic spoons were offered. There's one door to enter/exit...

I 'm writing about the Thanksgiving buffet; we 've been here before and we usually hit the main holidays if not dining w/relatives so we 've been here for Easter, T Giving(4x), Christmas, our anniversary(March) and Valentines Day. The food is always excellent but esp the buffet at Thanksgiving. The quality of the food is spectacular, the variety, the people are so friendly and helpful esp now that I 'm walking most of the time w/a cane. I don 't usually eat cooked carrots but these carmelized are fantastic....gravy, turkey, shrimp, ham, chicken, salad, rolls, great butter packets, turkey, breakfast goodies, and pies are all delicious...part of your payment covers OJ(excellent), Cranberry jui...
