Cafe Soriah - Eugene

'Hard to be critical of wonderful food, service, etc. While we don 't mean to be negative, our positive, but hopefully constructive comments...Sunday evening, we were seated on the beautiful patio (We MIGHT have been offered that as an option) but, both of us being hard of hearing just understood that was here our reservation assigned us. Wind was blowing, temperature was dipping. Noticing 6 propane heaters, we asked if our might be lit. We were told "they 'd try, but the night before, there were only 2 of 'em working. Both our cool dude server and the gracious hostess tried to ignite one, No Success! They had to leave (no problem) they had 'da lot of other guests to serve... 'promised to come back to try some more. 'Never happened! 'Totally understandable...your indoor dining areas were VERY busy and they were doing an excellent job or caring for all your patrons. It was, however...knowing that Oregon Spring weather isn 't always balmy in April....and knowing that the previous nite only 2 of the 6 propane heaters were operational, disappointing that management had not either closed the COLD patio, refilled propane tanks or trained busy staff on proper heater lighting procedures. The hostess was gracious, the server was caring, professional and FUN and the food was wonderful! 'Too bad we left with satisfied appetites, but chilled bodies. Perhaps a couple more jalapenos in the jambalaya would have warmed us up a bit Again, this is not complaining, merely observing. And, we WILL be back...Next time, carefully listening to see if patio seating is an option or an assignment.

Outstanding service and excellent tasting food. Great place to celebrate our anniversary! Thanks

We sat in a place, was it the bar? Was it the restaurant? Service was sporadic, meaning the pacing was poor. They showed every other table their desserts. They just Asked us if we wanted dessert, when we asked what they had, the waitress mumbled a few things.

First rate food and service. Menu changes from time to time so there are new dishes to try. Specials also offer delicious alternatives. Staff is friendly and helpful. Chef Ib is in a class by himself! Frank Mary, Eugene, OR.

Delighted with the service and food. The wine selection was very nice. It felt like a neighborhood cafe and we loved that.
