We hadn't been for a few months but ordered our go to Salmon for me and steak for her. First off I hadn't noticed the menu change so that's on me so expected cedar plank salmon with garlic mashed potatoes and a vegi medley. Instead I got a tiny cut of salmon on top of some overpowering rice crap that was awful and overpowered the salmon. Her steak was over cooked. Something has changed but with wine and 20% we were at $300 for a total crap meal. Too bad but they must have a new cook or ?? Well at least the local wine was terrific and the service polite and prompt. We didn't complain which would have just made the experience worse.

I didn't get photos of our starters, but they were great - try the fermented vegetables. The goat cheese and chutney with focaccia was excellent, the cheese wasn't overly "goaty". We had the rockfish (pictured), and I really liked the light crispy outside of the fish and the nice tapenade. Not sure I remember the name of the desert, but whatever it was...we thought it was going to be too much for 2 people, but we ended up licking the plate clean. Wow. Service was very friendly and helpful - they had good recommendations too. A delightful evening was had by all. We'll be back for an encore.

A nice refreshing beer was exactly what was needed after all the work rafting. For a starter we got the artichoke dip. This was some of the best dip I've ever had. I could have eaten this as my whole meal and ate too much that I wasn't super hungry when my burger came. I wasn't too upset about that though because the dip was a lot better than the burger. The bacon jam and onions on the burger were great, but the burger itself was slightly dry.

I love sitting on the large patio and service has always been excellent. They have several beers. But I really enjoy their food. Previously I had the Nashville chicken sandwich. This time, I enjoyed the lamb gyro: Lamb, cucumber, pepperoncini, tomato, red onion, romaine lettuce, feta, and tzatziki, wrapped in grilled pita. I subbed a Caesar salad for the side. The salad was fresh and the dressing was good. The side was pretty large. But I enjoyed it and would opt for it again. I LOVED the lamb gyro. The meat was tender and flavorful. Everything went well together and it was good sized as well. I highly recommend if you're in the area!

Never had a refill offered the entire time there nor did anyone around us. We got up to pay for drinks and leave that's food when our food came out and hour later. So, it was thrown in To-go boxes, no bag, no utensils, no paper towels, the pulled pork sandwiches were burnt on the bottom bun and cold and stale on the top bun. The meat was dry and cold, the sandwich had mayo even though the waitress told us it did not also the menu didn't show mayo in the ingredient list. The Mac and cheese was old mush looked like it was a week old. The waitress was on her phone and the cook just looked like he had nothing to do. Won't ever go back there.

Not a big deal at all, but a simple sign to indicate that would be helpful. That being said, our server was very attentive and friendly the entire time. We ordered a variety of burgers, including a the Impossible Burger as I'm a vegetarian. It was great to see a vegetarian option on the menu as you never know in smaller towns. The food was well received, with the brisket and smoked mac n cheese being the major highlights. My family could not stop raving about how tender and flavorful the brisket was. My Impossible Burger was really good and although I try to avoid the processed meat alternatives, it was a good cheat meal. They have a few TVs inside, included a big screen TV that was playing the Sunday Night Football game. This would be a great spot to watch a sports game while grabbing a bite to eat or a beer/cider. The price point was reasonable as well. Definitely a spot to checkout if you are in the area.

This is one of our go-to spots on Hood River. We've been here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and…read moresomehow they manage to nail it every single time. Today's mission? Split the St. Helens Burger, an order of fries, and a side salad with the recommended goat cheese (trust them--it was the right call). The burger was everything you want it to be. A fresh poppy seed bun, a perfectly cooked patty, sweet caramelized onions... and then came the poblano pepper. That little bit of smoky heat tied the whole thing together. Now let's talk about the fries because they deserve their own paragraph. These are, without question, my favorite fries. They arrived hot, crispy, perfectly golden, and had that satisfying crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one. If you're a fry person, these alone are worth the visit. The side salad was fresh and flavorful, and the creamy goat cheese took it from "just a side salad" to something I'd happily order again. It was the perfect balance to all those delicious fries. If you're looking for a place that consistently delivers great food in a welcoming atmosphere, Kickstand Coffee should absolutely be on your list. We've yet to have a bad meal here, and it's one of those places we recommend without hesitation to friends, family, and anyone who asks where to eat. I now wish I didn't let my husband eat more of the fries. Gotta head back up there soon! Service was great and love that the girl at the counter asked me if I was doing anything fun today - extra friendliness goes a long way!

This didn't feel like a chain restaurant experience. Would eat here again in a heartbeat!

Their beer flights come with 6 pours each and it's served in a tall sail (or sharkfin?) shaped tower, each choice is labeled so you know what you're drinking. Their burger with bacon tomato jam was a 10/10! So much flavor and the bun was fresh and lightly buttered and toasted (this really takes it up a notch!). The meat was very tender and lots of flavor (tasted high quality). It's served with a heaping order of fries (or you can upcharge it for $2 and do salad, soup or sweet potato fries). Their chicken wings were tender and came off the bones easily while still having crispy edges. Perfection. After a swim in the river across the street, this place is a chill spot for good food, beer and service. They have indoor seating with views and outdoor seating as well. Inside was nice and cool on a hot day. I'm already looking forward to the next visit!

But the service is beyond slow. 20 minutes in another part our group asked if the food was ready and was told it would take 30 minutes. After the half hour long wait was up we inquired again and asked that the food be changed to go because we did not have the entree afternoon to wait. When we finally got the food it was not made to go. I asked for that again since we'd be waiting like 45 minutes to which the employee corrected me saying it had "only been 40 minutes"and the employee declined, gave us two cartons so that we could do that ourselves. With just a few minutes before our ride arrived we return to our table to eat. I soon learned why the food took so long. Well done doesn't describe the burger patties. Both we so over cooked and burnt the they were crunchy with the overwhelming taste of charcoal from being so burnt. The French fries that came with it were also awful. The taste was that of fries that were quite likely older than the order we placed. So the Ferment Brewing Company wins the trifecta. Slow service, Ruid employees, and awful food. I trust that the great community of Hood River has some good places to eat but regrettably FMC is absolutely not one of them.
