The Point Restaurant

We stopped here on the way home from Sisters, after hiking at McDowell Creek Park.  Despite the positive Yelp reviews, I wasn't expecting much. I figured it would just be another Shari's or Denny's.  We were pleasantly surprised.  My grilled Cajun catfish was wonderful, and my wife really enjoyed her chicken cordon bleu. We arrived after dark so we didn't see the view, but they had good wine (Kiona red blend), great food, quick service, and a nice homey atmosphere. Highly recommended.

I've never had a meal (breakfast, lunch, or dinner) that has disappointed me.  Their service is always spot on.  My coffee never runs out.  The owner is always present and pleasant.  I've had steak, scallops, biscuits and gravy, Denver omelet, and much more and I will come back time and time again to try even more of their menu.  

Also, it has an awesome view of Foster Lake!

Stopped here on the way to Corvallis, based on the Yelp love. I had a very good shrimp Louie salad--sooo happy the lettuce was a nice spring mix w/o frisée, instead of the too typical iceberg.
Hubby had the chicken bacon ranch sandwich, nice fat slices of quality bacon and tomato. Kid had a little cheese pizza with fries. All that and two Grey Goose bloody Mary's and a diet coke for $41.
Obviously a local favorite, great views of the lake across the highway. Definitely recommend.
