Excellent as always. We asked to be served quickly as we were running late to a wine tasting, and they accommodated us beautifully— food came super quick, so we had time to enjoy it. Everything was delicious and the server was friendly and gracious. Our favorite spot in Willamette wine country!

About the restaurant

Mushrooms are the heart of what we do at the Joel Palmer House. We have always endeavored to obtain seasonal and local ingredients and we use many locally produced greens, herbs, and vegetables, some of which come from our own culinary garden. We are frequently inspired by ingredients found in the cuisines of France, China, Thailand, Poland and India, so we call our cooking "freestyle." Our dishes pair well the celebrated wines of Oregon, especially Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Our extensive, Oregon-focused wine list has been awarded the Best of Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator. Of special note, The Joel Palmer House ranks as one of Oregon's finest historic homes and is on the National Register of Historic Places and the Oregon Historic Register. Built in 1857, the house is Dayton's oldest standing structure. When weather permits, guests can enjoy their dinner on our outdoor patio, soaking in the last rays of sunshine in the heart of Oregon Wine Country.

A unique setting causing me to imagine attending a dinner hosted by a Prime Minister/Head of State! Tastings and presentation were that memorable. A staff member met us out in the parking lot holding an umbrella to shield us from a downpour, warmly escorting us into an ambience suggestive of a country estate. If one is proposing marriage and looking for the “perfect setting” consider this one.
