Verde Cocina Sylvan Highlands

Well Let me say the patio was fantastic on A-day where the Sun finally came out in Oregon! The food was served quickly, was very flavorful coma and was just the right proportion. What this virus running around I suggest everybody that has a meeting for business or pleasure come here because they have to patios and a back bar area out of doors plenty of fresh air so you're not in a confined space. I've been to 2 different restaurants in this same fantastic location before and neither of them measured up to this period I especially want to thank my server Kat for being attentive, wonderful, and spot on with her service and a fantastic Terrific attitude! I'll be back often as a busy local realestate broker with clients in tow! Thanks everyone for a great 30 minutes of my day.

First off don't let the fact that it is gluten free lead you away from this place. (we all know gluten is delicious) the food is delicious and refreshing, it has the strange yet fun Portland grunola vibe to it. Take a chance on this place and you won't be disappointed. I recommend the sangria for drinks and the chorizo Quesadilla for food.

The Carne Asada salad was amazing! It was basically a whole steak on top of a decent amount of vegetables and mixed greens. The dressing was great! Great selection of craft beer and cocktails. The rest of the menu looked great but was different than what we usually saw at the Oregon zoo stand they have. We requested to sit on the sunny side of the restaurant because the other section appeared cave like during the day time hours. This would probably not have bothered us during dinner. Service was slow but the restaurant was slow being between lunch and dinner so I cannot judge not going during a normal meal time. Staff was very friendly although not as knowledgeable about the different things on the menu or what the restaurant serves at its other sites. All and all it was a great place to go for great food; although a bit pricey. I will definitely return, just not on a weekly basis otherwise I might not make my car payment ;)
