We got a little carried away and ordered way too much but everything was so good! For appetizers I tried The mini charcuterie: perfect single serve size or definitely to share of other appetizers are involved. The bread, apple and jam was my favorite pairing on the plate and the cheeses were really good! Baked Brie and mixed mushroom: who doesn't love a good baked Brie! The mushrooms added a much needed earthy element to the richness of the cheese and it was also smothered in delicious buttery garlic cloves. I with the little bread sliced had been toasted but easily one of the best times on the menu. Steak bites: garlic butter was tasty and the steak bites were soft and melted in your mouth. The bread slices didn't seem necessary but a good appetizer. I ordered the salmon as my main entree and it came with arugula, Brussels sprouts, red onions and tomatoes. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the dressing on the greens was really good. I think there was a little too much arugula but everything tastes really great together. Our server was attentive, friendly and remembered everything we ordered right down to the modifications. Really cool atmosphere, upstairs seating and a crazy looking bar area. I don't see us being in Salem again anytime soon but if the time ever comes we will 10000% be enjoying all of our meals here. Things to note: shared restroom with surrounding businesses. No parking lot, only metered street parking but free after 8:00pm.

I was greeted by a very friendly server named Logan, he showed me to a booth, and let me settle in. After a few moments he came back with some fresh rolls and took my drink order, I opted for a glass of the house Pinot Noir. They have a nice varied menu and also offer some Chef specials. I decided on the Parmesan Crusted Halibut as my entree and a Ceaser salad to start. The salad arrived quickly and looked very good, I was informed that they had just made fresh croutons. After finishing my salad, which was very good the croutons were light and crispy, my dinner arrived. The overall presentation was excellent, the potatoes had a nice flavor and went well with the fish and asparagus. The halibut was cooked just right and the crust was perfect. Overall the meal was exceptionally delicious. I will make an effort to to come back and try more of the menu. I was informed that Saturday evening is a good time to stop in as they have live music. Highly recommended for a nice dinner with spouse, friends or work associates.

We ordered the grilled cheese, the chicken wrap, the fried pickles, the pretzel logs, and fries. Prices were reasonable (we had to ask for the happy hour menu though).

The fried pickles and pretzel logs were super yummy and the best part of the meal. We would try somewhere else if we were in the area again.

The staff are hard working and friendly, & they do trivia night on Thursday and usually have a band every couple weeks on Saturday nights. The roll up door is definitely a cool touch. Breakfast is available on Fri-Sun and it's the best spot in town IMO. Their avocado toast is really go. They can be pretty busy at times but I've never had an unreasonable wait time... the back of house is as skilled and hardworking as the FOH. They do have a large space to accommodate bigger groups and are kid friendly on the side opposite the bar. There is a variety of seating types- tall tables, short tables and front row seats at the bar to choose from. I would definitely recommend making a trip to downtown Stayton to give this business a try.

There were so many good options on the menu. Huge menu (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and really quality food. The service was good, friendly, and quick. The restaurant itself was big with high ceilings, open space, plenty of seating. I ordered the lime n coconut rice bowl with seared tuna and it was phenomenal. I also tried the cheeseburger and the mozzarella sticks. Both great. Their ranch seemed homemade which is always a big plus.

I ordered an individual pepperoni pizza and a dinner salad with blue cheese dressing (no cukes, no bell peppers, thank you very much) and as sure I wouldn't be able to eat it all. I fooled myself, didn't I... 'cuz I ate it all! And where are my pics? I always take pics! I think I was too hungry and just gobbled it all down without any pics. Oh well. Here's the description instead: the little individual pizza was covered - covered! - in sliced pepperonis. No cheese underneath was even visible. Perfectly baked, edges of the pepperonis just a little bit crispy, crust to die for, great red sauce and Parmesan cheese on the table made it the best pizza in the area. Maybe even in the entire state. I don't know for sure because I haven't been to all the pizza places in Oregon but it would be hard to find a pizza as amazing as Home Place's. The side salad filled the bowl with lettuce, peas, croutons, shredded carrots & red cabbage with the blue cheese dressing I requested on the side. To say this was a lot of food would not be an exaggeration. There are two sides to this restaurant: a regular dining room and a pizza room with a game area for the kids (or young-at-heart adults). We sat in the pizza side this time where a children's birthday party was getting ready to start. The acoustics leave something to be desired in this side of the restaurant and excited children can be loud, even without the lack of acoustics. It's not the most relaxing quiet dinnertime space but listening to kids enjoy themselves can be uplifting in its own way. The restaurant is clean, the servers friendly and patient, the service is quick, the pizzas hot, the drinks plentiful, and I know I'll be back here soon for another pizza fix.

I especially love supporting a family business with such a long history in the community. We stopped in mid-afternoon, which meant we were able to take advantage of their lunch pricing. I also special-ordered a creamy espresso martini--something they don't typically make--and they were happy to accommodate me. It was delicious! They started us with bread and a fantastic garlic butter that was hard to stop eating. The minestrone soup was just okay, but the deep-dish pizza was fantastic--definitely a highlight! We also tried the lunch combo with tortellini and chicken and mushroom linguini. Both were good, although neither had us completely over the moon. That said, the service was excellent, which always makes a dining experience even better. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would absolutely return. Great atmosphere, friendly service, delicious pizza, and a family-owned history worth supporting.
