Safeway

17779 Boones Ferry Rd
Lake Oswego, OR 97035

Maggie A. writes: It's odd to review a Safeway, but this location is that bad.

The olive bar is cool, and they have a lot of  "natural" stuff, but not much else is impressive.

Once in awhile after going to other Safeway's, I forget that I've sworn off this location and…

Lavang Restaurant

17790 Pilkington Rd
Lake Oswego, OR 97035

Jen G. writes: One star is too many!

can't even comment on the food because we left before eating due to the outrageously bad service.  From the moment we walked in, the service was indifferent to the point of rudeness--grunting and pointing to the tables was the…

Tualatin, OR 97062

Jen K. writes: I want soup.  No I need soup.  I feel the sick coming on and that means I need a comforting bowl of soup to ward off the descending virus.  Schlotzksy's came to mind because I've gotten good food here in the past for many years and I thought they…

Jen K. writes: The good, the bad and the ugly.  Pretty apt description of managed care HMOs.  But I will say I've had a pretty good run with Kaiser and this office in particular.  I was born at Kaiser (and family lore is that my dad was the first man "permitted" in…

Hayden's Lake Front Grill

8187 SW Tualatin Sherwood Rd
Tualatin, OR 97062

Sushi Track

8750 SW Citizens Dr Ste H
Wilsonville, OR 97070

Jen K. writes: This place is one of my top picks when I want to eat lunch in Wilsonville.  Fun conveyor belt style sushi bar and pay by the plate.  And don't tell my dining companions, but the key to a good meal at a sushi place is pole position.  I always sit to…
