Forest Lake Tavern - Lake Oswego

The bistro has been renovated and it does look very appealing, pity the same could not be said about the food. I had the French schitznal (spelt wrong)? It was your average pub grub, the sauce was ok but not as flavoursome as I thought it would be. Salad was more lettuce then anything and the chips were your average pub chips. The menu did not appeal that much but then again it is what it is. I won't be back, be alright if you wanted a few drinks and a bite to eat but not that fussy about your food. The service was very average too.

I know , I know , 5 Stars for Forest Lake Tavern, Yes it's true. No I wasn't pissed, or on drugs. This is a honest assessment . Had the Lemon Calamari for a entrée, which was enough to share . My daughter had the Hickery Burger which was really good . I had the rump steak which I payed 31 , came out exactly the way I ordered. And believe it or not, I thought it was better than the Brecky Creek. Yes , that's right better. Will come back. It was pleasant experience .

It was my 21st birthday and I was declined entry in gaming lounge room, terrible experience was forced to leave! Will not return!!! Avoid this place at all cost....

A very disappointing visit. The staff were not particularly welcoming, although there was one young waiter who was pleasant but seemed quite new and took quite a while to take our orders. He also collected our plates by placing a pile of dirties on the table in front of us, scraping scraps onto the top plate, then stacking under and continuing along the table. My husband handed his steak back to a waitress, explaining that his chicken wings topper was missing. They returned his plate a minute later stating that the topper hadn 't been charged for, so if he wanted it he would have to go back and order it and pay for it first. He declined and accepted his plate as it was but sat and calculated our order and worked out that he had paid for the topper after all. When he told them she tried insisting that he was wrong but after actually checking the register receipt discovered he was correct she grudgingly went and organised his topper, no apology. I was also disappointed with the food this time. The antipasto pizza was edible but the pizza base was like a frozen supermarket pizza, not a wood-fired pizza, the char-grilled eggplant and zucchini were tiny steamed cubes, and the roasted capsicum was missing entirely. Most of the meals in our group were quite nice but the attitude of the staff really brings it down and I had to discard 2 water glasses before I found one without lipstick on the rim. Won 't be going back.

Great for some cheap beer and karaoke, but DO NOT eat from the restaurant here! Ordered the lasagne and, while the quality was passable, it came back to haunt me hours later after I got food poisoning. Hopefully they've improved their safe food handling practices since then!
