In my most humble opinion the best New York style pizza outside of the north east. With classic ingrediants you'd expect and outside ingrediants fresh from local growers like artichoke hearts and asiago cheese imported from Europe each step in preparing your lunch or dinner is well calculated and sure to put a smile on your face. However if you find yourself pushing 70 this atmosphere may not be for you as it was plucked from the 80's and shares a underground charm much like the classic pheonix underground. If you feel the need for a single slice or a whole pie theyre happy to oblige.
Quality 10/10
Atmosphere 10/10
Price 10/10

This has been by far my favorite restaurant throughout the years. The flavors to each dish are so unique, however I always have a hard time venturing away from the Lemon Grass Chicken. Their Spring Rolls are outstanding for an appetizer. The dishes are very reasonably priced. Portions are great for the price you pay per dish. Beautiful presentation on the dishes not to mention the flavor.
They just did a gorgeous job remodeling. A person can go dressed up or in their casual clothing. The place is very classy. They have always used beautiful glasswear, table linens, cloth dinner napkins, ect. The seating is cozy, the surrounding waterfall and lighting that is dim makes this a memorable experience. My family and I have always had the most wonderful service and all happiness from all that eat there. A very positive environment. Sometimes the wait can be ten to twenty minutes to be seated , however the experience is far worth the wait.
I hope all have the same experience I have at the Lemon Grass.
Pros: Taste of food, price, service, cleanliness, decor
Cons: Closed between lunch and dinner reopens at 5:00pm

After living in Oly for many years, I will declare my re-occuring favorite restaurant is Ramblin Jack's. They have great Pizza, Eggplant, Lamb, and chicken. I've never ordered the BBQ (one of their specialitys) because I'm not fond of BBQ, but my friends and family all like it.
They have kid-size pizzas if you ask. Their pizza is my usual dish, and for dessert they have a variety of choices - I'd go key lime.
I'm not sure, though, if you can make reservations. The worst part of this restaurant is that it is so crowded its difficult to get a seat. I know you can make large-table reservations, like for a wedding party (we did this and it worked out great, private dining area thats blocked off)
Pros: Affordable Class, Hip, Classy
Cons: Lines

Falls Terrace is called Falls Terrace because - guess what - IT OVERLOOKS THE FALLS. Terrace. So commenting on the beautiful view would be like saying "we went to a bookstore to read - guess what - Books!"
The cuisine was something special, though. My wife had the French Onion soup, and I had the seafood floating in about a pound of butter.

Theres a reason youve never heard a bad thing about meconis, there isnt one. As far as New York style subs are concerned there is no equal that I have run across.

Since the 70's, I've gone to DD's. It is as good today as the first time I went to their old, quaint location with all the crazy posters. My husband chooses DD's everytime we drive through Oly. I Crust is yeasty but thin and the toppings are high quality, not "plastic-y". Highly recommend it! Great value, too.
Pros: Food, Parking, Freeway Access, Service, Facility
Cons: None, really....

Boy always seem to run into somebody when we go there. This is a great pizza place, but you can also have sandwiches. Only drawback is the parking!!! Getting a little easier since movie theater closed.

We stopped at The Oyster House after cross country flight and ate everything in sight. Both cod and chips and oysters and chips were terrific. Cole slaw with either raisins or currents was the best we've ever had. We tried to return on our way back to airport but two weeks had past and we couldn't remember where we were or how we found it. Now that we're home, I'm hoping they will give me their recipe for cole slaw so I can make it myself.
Pros: Cole Slaw

Forget the rest, go straight to Vic's. Slices, they know what a plain pie is, no wasted cornmeal on the bottom of the crust and fast service. East Coast seal of approval.

Unless we are traveling, my husband and I only go out to eat for sushi. We can pretty much make every other meal we like just as well at home. We've had sushi in Stuttgart, Paris, Costa Rica, Hawaii and many places in the continental US. Sushi Boat captured our hearts the very first time we ate there in 2001. It is our sushi restaurant of choice in this area and one of the top we've ever visited. Go early on all-you-can-eat nights -- they get really busy!
