    The best flat iron steak I think I've ever had. This had crab on the top and was delicious. Totally beat my expectations. Meri (my server and bartender) was excellent, I'll be back when I'm in the area.

    I met a friend there for breakfast on a Sunday at 9. No waiting. Gorgeous views, stunning dining room with high ceilings. Brandy was our server, she was friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. The food was DELICIOUS. I had a veggie skillet and blueberry muffin. My friend had the avocado Benedict. Ingredients were fresh and quality. I found the prices reasonable for the quality and presentation.

    My wife and I enjoyed dinner at Taprock Northwest Grill. The restaurant was busy, so we had a 30-minute wait. There were two chairs available at the bar, so we enjoyed a beer while waiting for our table. Tyler was the sole bartender - wow, very busy guy! Tyler provided exemplary service and we enjoyed his great sense of humor. Once seated, we both had fish and chips with halibut. When we asked about bread pudding for dessert, our server indicated there wasn't Jack Daniels sauce available for the dessert. The meal was filling, so we decided not to have dessert...but then Ace came out to our table with bread pudding that had his own sauce concoction which was AWESOME! Tyler and Ace helped make the night great!

    Taprock is one of those places we have to eat at anytime we're in the area. Every one of the staff members we encountered was absolutely wonderful; they were all friendly and extremely helpful. The menu is very good and fresh, with tons of variety including multiple gluten free options. The cocktail and mocktail menu is outstanding with lots of local twists on classic drinks. The only thing better than the food and drinks is the view. The restaurant is high on the bank of the Rogue River, and overlooks the Helllgate Jet Boat dock. It is a beautiful setting. The occasional loud car or motorcycle going across the nearby bridge is the only reminder that you're right in the middle of the city. Really, the only downside is that they aren't the cheapest place (but we're also big believers in you get what you pay for). We were there twice in the 3 days that we spent in the Grants Pass/Rogue River area and averaged about $30 per person each time we visited. Even if you can only stop in once, you won't be disappointed.

    Wow! I was so surprised by this restaurant. I stopped here for dinner on a road trip and had one of the most delicious meals I've had this year. The chimichurri steak was delicious, and the mashed potatoes stood wonderfully on their own- and I could eat a mountain of that asparagus. The kalua pork crepes were also very good, which I honestly was surprised by. I heard the prime rib dip sandwich was good, but you could definitely taste and feel the oil on the fries. The one thing I don't understand is that the atmosphere of the restaurant doesn't match the menu- the aesthetic is that of a fishing lodge and there's flatscreen televisions playing the game(s), but the menu is really elegant and diverse. Nonetheless, this was a great stop and a beautiful meal.

    Food was amazing, really well priced! Steak was the best I have had in a long time, and only $20. Just so tender. A really nice hidden gem in Grant's Pass. Nicole took great care of us, and we appreciated Tyler checking in to say hi. We will be back!

    I had the best. Maybe my accent is too heavy. The best French toast in my life. I’m 62 years old.

    Food was good. Fish tacos were delicious but service was slow. The owners need to higher more people. We ordered coffee but it never came. I wanted to order more fries but no one came around. Seating was good outside in the shade.

    Delicious food with great service! Location is perfect and the views of the Rouge River are fantastic. The atmosphere is wonderfully creative. Take a stroll around the property to see the statues and waterfall. Wait staff is attentive and friendly. Great for date night and the whole family!

    This was a great place to eat. The building is very nice with killer views of the river! We really enjoyed our food. As an appetizer we tried the twisted pretzels. A little too heavy on the mustard in the cheese sauce, but the pretzels were nice. My husband and I had burgers, him the hells gate fire burger and me the smash burger. He said it was very adventurous with the taste, bursting with many flavors. I really enjoyed mine as well. This is a really nice restaurant, so if you're wanting a more fancy feel, this is your place. Also, if you're wanting drinks, definitely go during happy hour though!

    Waste of money. Ordered a timed door dash order that obviously had been made way early and set to cool because not 1 thing was even warm and the beercheese wasn’t even liquid anymore pork sliders had like nothing on them hardly and they forgot the potato salad with it. Got regular fry’s rather than the ones ordered. Called and the lady who answered was very short told me they were out of sweet potato fries I could come get some potato salad but everything else is door dashes problem. No apology no customer service period. I’ve had better customer service and food quality at dennys

    We stopped here for a late lunch on our way south on I5 to SFO. Since we arrived at an odd hour for lunch - we were seated quickly; they weren’t busy yet. We chose to sit indoors, and were given a table by the windows - it was gorgeous!! The restaurant is beside the Rogue river and the view from here is very pretty!! The vibe of the place is super fun too! I tried their Beet salad with a side of beyond patty. The salad was good - but could use a little more acidity! 🙂 The beyond patty was delicious though! My companion liked their hefeweizen beer & (what I believe was the) Mr Bachelor basil chicken with a side of sweet potato fries - and quite liked their food! If you’re in the Grants Pass area - I’d recommend a visit here.

    Good food AND good views, this place was perfect. I definitely recommend sitting outside. The portions were perfect, and everything was delicious. We shared fried oysters and a beet salad for appetizers. The oysters were served in a unique way with a seaweed salad and a nice dipping sauce. The beet salad had two types of beets, plenty of cheese, and a great balance of greens to topping. For a main entree, I had the pimento chicken sandwich. It had a lot of flavors working together to really elevate it.

    Taprock is a beautiful place to dine in with a lot of great menu selections. The food is good. Drinks are good. Service is good. All around, a chill place to eat and drink. They have a wide variety to choose from. They are always really packed in the summertime, so try and get there as early as you can. 😉

    Just how big is this place?! I spotted at least two, maybe three levels of exterior decks, in addition to the already colossal dining areas within, that similarly span multiple floors! Even so, they must not be able to staff it to full operational capacity, as our quoted 40-minute wait stretched to over an hour. This would prove to be an omen of things to come, as timeliness continued to be the one aspect of our visit where Taprock would continue to struggle throughout the rest of our meal. When we were finally seated on one of the dog-friendly patio tables, it took our waitress another five minutes to arrive. She took our drink orders, and disappeared for another 10 minutes. We then ordered our entrees, which would arrive on what I would consider to be the long-ish end of an acceptable amount of time, and we dug in. We'd kept things simple: an Avocado Burger, Yeti Burger, and Pulled Pork Sliders. Each sandwich was tasty, cooked to order, and size-ably portioned. The pulled pork sliders were the standout entrée, rising above the rest due to the inclusion of pineapple and pretzel buns, both of which were inspired choices! The cheese triangles on the Yeti burger weren't quite what I was expecting, being breaded and not as gooey as I'd imagined, but still a solid effort overall. Once the meal was concluded, checkout proved to be a chore. Our waitress had disappeared once more, and we didn't end up rounding her up for another 15 minutes. In fact, we didn't see anyone from the restaurant's staff that entire time. Our combined total time at the restaurant, from check in to check out, was well over two hours, most of which was spent waiting for a table, or waiting to interact with a human being. Other than these complaints, Taprock has a lot going for it. The manicured gardens, ponds, waterfalls and paths along the waterfront are a nice touch, and help to alleviate the boring wait times. There is also a dock for some sort of riverboat, which seems to be somehow associated with the restaurant, so there's more to explore on a future visit. It seems that Taprock is popular with the locals in Grants Pass, and I'm sure our underwhelming experience is an outlier, but didn't make for a stellar first impression. Everything about the meal was just okay, which doesn't really balance the scales, when weighed against the interminable waiting. Still, I'd be willing to give them another shot in the future, to see if they can put enough effort into their service as they have in landscaping, and the building itself.

    This was my first time here. It was delicious and the atmosphere was great! We sat right by the window, with the river running right by it. We will definitely eat here again.

    This is one of my favorite places to take guests out for a meal. The atmosphere is always great and the views are lovely. My favorite is the fish and chips. My nephews favorite is the prime rib sandwich.

    Went here for the first time and was super excited to eat on the River. We had a party of 6 (3 kids and 3 adults) and on a Friday night the wait time was 10-15 minutes, not bad. We got seated, ordered and it took 20-30 minutes to get our food. The food looked delicious! My halibut was cold 😭. My husband ordered a steak and it was super tough. Tough enough that he sent it back and asked for something else. It took forever to get a replacement meal. I hate leaving reviews like this but I believe an honest review may help them improve. I do have to say that the server was super nice

    The food was absolutely phenomenal! We decided to sit at the bar tables because of the long wait, everything was clean and great. The busboy was very fast on cleaning up it was impressive. Our server could use time management a little better because it took a very long time just to order drinks, food, dessert, and get our check.

    I was able to grab some food before I headed home. I would say this place was kid friendly with all the kids there when we got there. I got the burger and it was great. The burger was amazing but the fries were limited. Not enough of the fries

    Beautiful lodge style restraunt. Great service and very good food! The Mushroom Alfredo was beyond amazing! Worth the price 👌

    Went on Thanksgiving lunch, so I guess it was busier than usual. Service was slow though. Food was good, not great. Selection was good. We did not realize a turkey dinner was on the menu until other tables got that, a shame the waitress did not let us know before ordering our meals.

    Our server was AJ, he did an awesome job! The food was absolutely perfect! This Strawberry apple salad with blue cheese and Hazelnuts with poppy seed dressing is my ultimate favorite. Love this place!

  • 3/5 James M. 1 year ago on Google
    Took the family for prime rib. Great ambiance, first class service. Prime rib was excellent. Baked potatoes were grossly undercooked. A couple sat themselves at a table when no one was at the host counter. They were given a call buzzer and told to wait in the hallway until a table was open. There were 22 tables in the main seating area and only 3 were occupied! I was outraged and wasn't even affected by it. I'd have walked out.

    We stayed in Grants Pass on the way to Portland. Came here for a dinner for two. We were able to sit outside the lighting was very romantic the atmosphere was friendly and the food was really good. The outdoor seating was a deck that overlooked the river, our server was very friendly and allowed us space to enjoy the evening. The presentation of the food was good and I would highly recommend this place for dinner.

    Second time in. Food portions are great! So come hungry. Father in law Jim works at the lodge across the street and comes here all the time as well as sends his guests over. We had sandwiches salad and tacos so far and all were top notch! Beer selection is most bodacious and they know how to poor a cocktail.

  • 5/5 Bananan M. 2 years ago on Google
    Always amazing service! The food and drinks are always great, I've only had to wait 15 min max, outside seating, fun atmosphere and the river really sells it!

  • 4/5 Chris P. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was good, unique combinations of toppings for their burgers. Prices were a little higher then you'd expect. Building and surroundings are super nice. Location on the river is cool. You could see the jet boat tours going by.

    Stumbled across this place by chance. I knew from the start I'd love this place. The front doors are covered in ornate wildlife engravings. I love the fishing lodge atmosphere. And the food is great! Reasonable pricing for the portion size as well!
