Dining at Willamette View

Moving beyond the past year just feels so positive. As we ease out of restrictions and begin reopening our exceptional venues, we find our dining program evolving from take-out meals to in-person dining.  This is an exciting direction — sharing laughs together over a glass of wine and returning to table-side service with tasty dishes from rotating menus feels, well, like normal. We’re still quite diligent in our safety protocols but, oh, how wonderful it is to sit across the table from one another once again. Look for more updates in our dining services in the coming months.
