Best Historic Restaurants in Auburn Gresham

The service was very good. Brookie was attentive and friendly. The food was delicious, and the ambience was lovely. We were in the back room where it was quiet and cozy. Our only surprise was the small portion for the lobster ravioli. My niece is a fairly small 23 year old, and the lobster ravioli was more like a child's portion and didn't fill her up, so we all shared some of our food. However, she said it tasted really good. I would definitely return, but would not get the ravioli.

If you are a lover of true Roman cuisine, you'll feel right at home at il Carciofo. It (selfishly) pains me to write this as it is already a long line to get a reservation, but as a couple who truly loves spending time in Italy and have yet to find an American restaurant that holds its salt, Chef Joe Flamm and his team hit this one out of the park. Watching him work the kitchen was like watching a conductor at the Orchestra. The carbonara, carciofi and pistachio gelato transported us right back to our favorite spots in Rome. We originally booked back to back nights in case we had a last minute scheduling conflict, fortunately we did not. We enjoyed last night and we'll be back again tonight to take on the other half of the menu. Hats off, Chef!

Walnut Room Holiday Brunch was fantastic. Of course the Christmas decorations are amazing. Service was very good. The wait staff professional and accommodating. The brunch lines were not long and food fresh. They served the typical breakfast foods with pastries and fresh fruit. All very good. There were complimentary photos with option to purchase others. I have to say photographer Ronit Bezalel did an amazing job capturing my husband and me. I expected the traditional stand in front of the tree type photo, but Ronit was much more creative. Don’t pass this up if offered. A great holiday breakfast. Cheers!

Every bite was outstanding! Portions are small - plan to order 2 plates per person or more. But, quality is absolutely excellent. Some of the best bites of the year for me!

Our server, Divan, did a great job even though she had a lot of tables. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and the food was as good as ever. Entrees are accompanied by side dishes, and are generous, so no need for additional food to be ordered. The restaurant was crowded and thus a bit noisy, but that is to be expected. All the staff worked hard to keep up. Very authentic German food.
