[[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely place for Happy Hour![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Found Wine & Growl on Open Table. The 1000 points rewards lured us to give it a try! Plus, we love wine and chocolate. Service was excellent! Had a little table in the corner reserved for us. We made reservations through Open Table. Our Infiniti SUV was being serviced (oil change and 15k service) just a little over a mile away. Drove from Vancouver, WA. We enjoyed the poke, cheeseburger, and brownie. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The view of the street and parking lot wasn't especially nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But if this business flourishes, perhaps they can move locations in the future. All in all, a great start! We'll be back the next time we're in the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ohhh... almost forgot to mention that even the bathroom was nice ~ clean, with art-deco tones.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] CHEERS! read more

This place is extremely underrated. The service was cute and friendly! Thx, Gabe! I had the poke bowl, Was not expecting the explosion of flavor and freshness. The bowl is unassumingly big and the wontons are crispy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location is also unassuming in a strip mall but what a gem for this neighborhood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We've been coming to The Wine and Growl for quite a while and this is my first yelp review. I can't say enough about the food. What ever we have ordered is always good. Gabe has been our server for years he is amazing as server and bar tender. The whole staff is. Gabe has been there the longest. Thanks Gabe. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Small hole in the wall spot but a little misleading?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Any spot called Wine snd Growl? I was thinking huge or moderate wine selection?? But food loos sooo good and definitely going back for Caesar salad and spicy meatballs!! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Wine & Growl is a hidden gem in the Raleigh Hills area. A cozy and intimate restaurant that's perfect for a date night or a few drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff is super friendly and always makes us feel special when we come in. For food, we ordered the chicken meatballs, brussel sprouts, and the chocolate orange baklava. We were absolutely blown away by the chicken meatballs. They were super flavorful and came with a delicious yogurt sauce that paired so well with their focaccia bread. The bartender kindly made me an orange espresso martini to pair with the chocolate orange baklava. This was a great combo! I also had a spicy margarita that I really enjoyed. I will definitely be returning to try more cocktail and menu items. read more

It doesn't look like much on the outside but this place is great! The food is so good, I want to go back and try it all! And the service was great! read more

3.5 stars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the ambiance here! Small and cozy and perfect, dim, warm lighting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food seemed pretty fresh and tasty, but nothing to write home about. Service was fine. A small plain cheese pizza is $17 (quite small for the price) and an additional $3 for every topping you add. Good drink selection with a nice and descriptive, yet simple menu. read more

Our favorite neighborhood spot! Excellent food and beverage selection! Top notch service!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I was surprised at how cozy and well-stocked this wine bar was when I first ducked in for a drink.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]For one it's in a strip mall off busy Beaverton Hillsdale Highway and the signage is low key so it's easy to miss, and also? It's pretty dang small.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]But that's part of the charm even if the furniture is IKEA light and the decor is minimal, unadorned and unassuming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But the bartenders are friendly and will walk you through the fairly extensive wine list (considering) with some wines on tap, some in a glass and some bottle only. The food is interesting and elevated enough to keep your group entertained; I'm a fan of the focaccia as a lovely warm-up and the hummus plate is a nice complement to whatever entree you get. Salads, burgers and pizza make the cut here too. There's table service and they take reservations, which are probably a good idea for larger groups - like I said the place is small (though you can sit at the bar too). It's become regular stop for me, not because it's radically innovative or anything but because it's intimate, has good food and is friendly and flavorful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I just always feel welcome here and sometimes that's more than enough.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

One of our favorite places for tapas and drinks. Service was prompt and attentive. Beer and wine selection covered our needs. Tried one of their speciality drinks and it was really good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is low key and great for conversations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The drinks here are great. I've visited twice and was impressed with the drinks both times. The most recent time I visited I'd ordered dinner. The menu is a bit pricy, but I figured it would be a phenomenal meal given how much I'd like the drinks. To be honest, I was underwhelmed. The burger was $18 and I'd opted to add the bone marrow butter for an additional $5 (I LOVE bone marrow so this was an obvious menu choice for me). Well, for $23 you'd expect something absolutely wonderful, and this definitely fell short. It was sloppy and the lettuce felt quite wilted. The arugula salad and fries it came with were great, however! I'd definitely come back, but perhaps just for shared plates and drinks. Pro tip- make reservations! This place is popular, even on weeknights read more

I absolutely LOVE this place! The food is INCREDIBLE! There isn't a bad item on the menu. The Facaccia is out of this world. I could easily eat 10 servings in one sitting. The Chèvre Dip and Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts make great appetizers. You also can never go wrong with their pizza or risotto. It's a small establishment so be sure to make a reservation if you want to be sure you get a table. The staff is very friendly and always does an amazing job. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND eating here! read more

Burger Week introduced me to this place nestled in a strip of other shops in SW. The burger was my favorite of all and had me coming back a second time to re-experience it again with a friend. The ingredient that stands above and beyond: Bone Marrow Butter. I had never tried anything quite like it. I learned they actually offer this burger outside of burger week and it definitely got me coming back. The ambience is nice and quiet. They have a great selection of beers as well as wines and taps $1 off on happy hour. Their bathroom is also very nice with complimentary scents to freshen up with. read more

We've been going here every now and then for a while. The menu doesn't change much and is very limited, which is part of why we don't go more often. Ever since the manager left the wine selection has become less interesting and the service has definitely gone downhill. Last time we sat at the bar and barely got spoken to by the bartender and he forgot one of our dishes but didn't even know because he barely looked at us nor did he even check. We won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Quaint and cute for Beaverton! Delicious food and tasty wine. Nice ambiance and i even impressed my non impressionable Venezuelan mother :) I say it's a win! read more

Wonderful find! The food was great and the service was outstanding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A nice vibe and very friendly staff made our evening out a real pleasure[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. We'll definitely be returning soon! read more

Sadly this restaurant is not what is once was. The ownership has changed right along with the burger which at one time was outstanding. Now it's just a pedestrian hamburger at the price it was when it was made with high quality, hand formed patties and a great bun. The burger is nothing like it used to be. Our dinner was mediocre at best and very expensive. If you are going to charge $18 for a hamburger it better be good which this was not worthy of its price. Bye Bye W&G. You have lost us forever. Too bad. read more

It was a great place to start our night out. The staff was very friendly and even though small it isn't cramped at the tables. The food is okay and the wine/beer selection is a good complement to the food. read more

Wine & Growl - Baked chèvre and poke... yum! - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Excellent food for a good price. Well worth a visit. Service was personal, attentive, with great recommendations. It is a small locations with maybe 8 tables. Recommend reservations but didn't need them when I was there. read more

New ownership? New management? I dunno what's happened, but the new service staff is ho-hum, the burgers are even more expensive and wa-a-ay less tasty, and they've clearly lost Forrest, their excellent chef. Another local favorite gone to the dogs. (sigh) read more

Came here for Friday night dinner and it was packed! We were lucky to get a table at the bar. We ordered the butter lettuce salad, margherita pizza, and the duck ragú pappardelle for food and the hapa highball and love potion #9 for drinks. The drinks were amazing! Flavors paired well with each other. Every time I see a cocktail with egg whites in it, that's the one I'm ordering! For food, I would skip out on the butter lettuce salad. I felt like it tasted a bit one dimensional, maybe the dressing was too tangy and needed some sweetness? The mint and goat cheese toast really helped but it wasn't enough to mellow out the vinegarette. The pizza and pasta were hands down so amazing though! I love that their menu changes pretty often so it makes me want to go back and try their other specials! Tip: make reservations prior to coming! The restaurant is small and cosy so they get very busy! read more

Beautiful little bistro with great drinks and food. A diverse menu. I especially love the poke appetizer. Also wonderful northwest cuisine dinners. Great, friendly service. I like to go here regularly. read more

I am trying to support for restaurant during this pandemic time. We sat out side . Enough space between each table . I order rosè was really good. I wish they had more variety of food menu. Hopefully I can make it for happy hour next time :) read more

I hope we went to Wine n Growl on an off night. We used to love going here..... Food: Chevre appetizer.. .cheese was tasty but very dry, small and overcooked because alot stuck to the skillet. The chevre was at best 1/3" ?! Toast was also too dry/hard. NOT worth $14 Beet and feta salad. It was overpowering and swamped with vinegar.....miniscule bed of arugula. Feta was slimpt. Nuts? Were hard to even find. We ended up taking home to doctor the beets to get rid of vinegar. Service was sparse We will not go back. A $100 waste of money. read more

Cute little place tucked just off the road. I've driven by it dozens of times but can't say I ever noticed it. It was a warm, inviting atmosphere as soon as I walked in the door. It's not a large area - fewer than 12 tables plus seating at the bar. Despite the small size, we had no trouble finding a table for 2 on a Friday night at 6pm. We didn't order food but between us we enjoyed a Manhattan, vodka soda, red wine, and beer and all were great. The staff was fantastic and didn't rush us, even though we were at the table for over 4 hours and (like I said) didn't order food. They were really friendly and attentive. No paper menus; you have to scan the QR code on the table for a menu like many other places are doing since Covid. My one complaint would be that it was quite chilly in there. read more

Great spot for drinks and food. Staff was attentive and friendly. Place can get crowded with limited seating. Best to call ahead and see if a table can be reserved. For the food both the popcorn and taro chips were good. Main entrees like pizza and burgers were decent. Pizza dough was hard and overcooked. Not chewy dough. Broccolini harissa appetizer had lots of herbs but was missing the seared flavor from the description. No roasted flavor at all from the veggies. Menu changes from time to time. Overall great spot but food could improve. read more

Set in an unassuming location right off the 10 in a small strip mall, this place is a pleasant surprise. The ambience is comfortable, accented by dim lighting and warm wood tones. The noise level is almost festive due to the acoustics, so if you want quiet when it's crowded, good luck. The bar staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Beer on tap is common everywhere, but wine on tap is such a cool idea. And Wine & Growl have a rotating tap, which includes beer, wine, and cider. And they recently added some top shelf liquor, so if you want to try some Japanese Whisky, this is your place. I opted for some half glasses of reds, with my favorite being the 2014 Helix, which they apparently keep all the time. Everything I had was excellent. read more

One of my all-time favorite places! Wonderful atmosphere, amazing wine, beer, and food options, and an all star staff. Can't wait to go back! read more

They're only open for lunch on Friday and Saturday, which is too bad because I would love to come here more often with co-workers. The place is very cozy, can get very loud when full, and the seating is limited, but they offer some outdoor spots during the drier and warmer months. My friends rave about the liquor, but that's not my thing so I'll focus on the food, which is absolutely superb. One of the coolest things they have is the "Dirty Pretzel," which is a creation that changes day-to-day. It's light fare and a bit expensive at times, but it's wonderful! The menu seems to change seasonally, so things like the Painted Hills Steak entree is no longer there at the moment, but the Dry Aged Strip Steak was a great replacement. Who knew I would enjoy huckleberries on a steak? The sandwiches are top notch and while the string potato fries can be messy, it just means it took a little longer to clear out my entire plate. The new Pacific Chowder is also a highly rated item in my eyes as well as their flourless chocolate cake dessert. Everything they make here is just bursting with flavor accompanied with awesome presentation. The portion sizes are on the small side but appropriate for a fine dining establishment, so just keep that in mind. Food: 5 Service: 5 Ambiance: 4 Value: 4 TL;DR: Awesome fine dining food in a Beaverton wine bar! read more

Wine and Growl is one of my go to places for dinner. The place has great atmosphere, service, and great food and beer. The burger is top notch as is the sausage pizza. The daily specials can be great. We just had the shrimp and chorizo with polenta and we recommend it. read more

I'm in Heaven. Good food in Beaverton - FINALLY!!! I have driven past this place a million times & never given it a 2nd glance. I think the name made me think it was a growler refill spot & not what it turned out to be. Excellent food, Amazing varieties, fantastic hand crafted cocktails - DID I MENTION THE FOOD??? I didn't have 1 bad bite of food here. We ordered multiple items off the happy hour menu and look presently surprised with each one, as well as sharing the seared steak from the regular menu. read more

For sure this place is a hidden gem! Amazing food, small menu, fresh ever changing. Im not going to remove a star because I still love this place... however, they used to have the best cocktails ever!!! Like amazing came here almost every week to indulge. There bartender Tina left and now the cocktails are not worth spending the money on. Their name is wine and growl so I will have to shift to drinking wine here... although I can have wine at home but what I cant do at home is make those amazing speciality drinks. read more

Found this restaraunt on Yelp on the way back through Beaverton. While the location was a bit odd, the food did not disappoint. We got the cheese plate, the burger, and the strip steak. The burger was super juicy and so flavorful, and the strip steak had a wonderful chimmichurri sauce on top. Definitely coming back through when I'm in beaverton read more

Be forewarned: the restaurant is in some small single strip of stores of a busy road. Doesn't look like a great spot. And it's a really small/narrow building for a restaurant. BUT the food was amazing. The staff was great, the cocktails were great. I am definitely going back. Really cannot stress how good the food was. read more

Always wonderful food and wine. The staff are super friendly and also remember us. Love the specials on the board.

My only complaint is I wish they had better hours. Everything is delicious and wines they have are great!

Ordered delivery during the pandemic and it was great. I got a pork tenderloin and it was a perfectly cooked

This is such a neat little spot, amazing food and drinks. I would highly recommend if you are trying to get some good grub! I got the harvest salad, and the love potion #9. I think their menu changes frequently but still, totally worth trying ! read more

Happy to update my previous review. Based on many previous experiences, we wanted to give this place another try. Fantastic experience this time. Great food. Great wine. Definitely back to its previous level. Look forward to going back in the near future. I'm glad that the last experience was just an off night. read more

All I gotta say is this "If you don't like beer, wine, cocktails and great food, come here for the super handsome owner!" lol Tonight was my first time trying Wine & Growl and as much as I like Moscow Mules, I didn't want one from the tap. But my friend did, and she loved hers. I ended up with a lovely Tempranillo ('15 D'Anu Tempranillo (Freedom Hill) and then I tried a beer; a Falling Sky, Roggenbie (Eugene). She then ordered a flight of whites and roses. With our eyes being hungrier than our stomachs, she ordered the charred green beans (amazing!), a cheese plate, taro chips (like Doritos, I couldn't eat just one) & mushroom toast. She shared all, but I passed on the mushrooms, because I don't do mushrooms. Never have. I got the chicken wings. I did not share. Haha They were very good, but I always remember - after the fact - how messy they are. What I should have gotten instead, was the burger, which someone at the neighboring table got. It looked delicious! The ambiance is really nice and quiet, but not so much that you feel like you have to whisper. We were having a girls night out, but this would also be a great place for a date night. read more
