Troutini - Troutdale

I was a little hesitant at first, I don't eat trout, but love Martinis, so soldered on, figured that I could drink my way through the trout. I wasn't at all that surprised to find more than a rainbow or browny on the menu. If you need to know, this restaurant is frenchish in style, every plate i saw looked fabulous. I had the chicken pot pie my wife countered with the duck En Crout, booth are to die for, and you might if you are not supposed to eat this kind of food, but then you are missing out. Our server Maria was on her maiden run as an evening server, she did a great job. Drinks were hand crafted. See you again next time I am in town

The food here was amazing. The ambiance was very cozy. The staff was very friendly and gave good options on the food they enjoyed most. Nicole was our waitress and was great at checking in with us. The cocktail menu was very good. I have a French fiesta which had some fancy liquer, tequila, hibiscus syrup and a hibiscus flower. Strong, but delicious. My wife had an Irish coffee and said it was just as good as she had in Ireland. For an appetizer we had the Beer Fondue which was bread/homemade pretzels and beer cheese. Super delicious. I had the chicken pot pie for my entree. It. Was. Amazing. The gravy was on point. My wife had the Bolognese and it was also great. The noodles were expertly cooked. For desert we had an apple crisp which had just the right about of cinnimon and the apples cooked just enough so they had the slightest crunch, melded with a delicious oat covering and a nice scoop of vanilla on top. We will be back.

We would return just for the house salad and exceptional drinks (like the peartini shown in the picture), but the entrees and desserts have never let us down either. The atmosphere is nice and casual, allowing you to feel at ease whether you're in jeans or dressed up. The wait staff is also fantastic.

Our extended family lives in the area, and we recently checked out this restaurant with a group of seven. It's a small establishment, but they manage to fit in quite a few tables. All of their martinis are made by hand, so it can take a little while to get your drink, but it's definitely worth the wait. Just be careful, as those martinis can sneak up on you! The food options are also abundant, and I recommend trying whatever catches your eye—you certainly won't be disappointed. If it weren't for the distance from my home, I'd visit more often, but it gives me a great reason to see family. Whether before or after our gatherings, we all love this place and enjoy stopping by!

The food here is outstanding! You can really tell that the chef puts a lot of care into each dish. Every plate is a work of art, perfectly balanced and hearty. The atmosphere is wonderful, and the jazz on Tuesdays adds a fun touch. Happy Hour is a great deal too. This place is a must-visit and my favorite spot for great food in the area. The prices are fair for the quality you get. It's worth spending the extra $5 per plate compared to chain restaurants to truly enjoy a remarkable dining experience. The **** is one of the best dishes I’ve ever had!
