Been wanting too try this place for awhile, Hostess was great Sat us with our reservation, but we’re completely ignored for 15mins no water no greeting no nothing. Yall were busy, but not that busy not to be at least courteous. SARAH was our waitress was sweet but not prompt. Manager was running around , everyone walked past our table still nothing. Shame on yall! “Im in the industry and would never treat guests like that.. or manage like that… ” I am super nice, but this was very upsetting to be charged those prices with crappy service, NOPE!
Thank Goodness for the food…

Wonderful restaurant! Excellent service, excellent food, and a beautiful view out on Lake Oswego a really good wine selection. Sushito peppers were “to die for”. The miso cod was also super delicious. Very tender and flaky!

Had a great dinner with family here. Not pretentious but well done food. Nothing breaking the norm although the service was snappy enough and the wine menu is decent.

Five Spice Seafood + Wine Bar in Lake Oswego is one of those restaurants that makes you appreciate living in this area. The food is fantastic, especially if you love fresh seafood and unique Pacific Northwest flavors. Everything we tried was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and the wine selection pairs perfectly with the menu.
The atmosphere is warm, elegant, and relaxed, making it a great spot for date night, celebrating with friends, or just enjoying a nice evening out. If you can sit near the lake, it makes the experience even better. The staff was welcoming and attentive, which always makes a big difference.
As a local real estate agent who spends a lot of time helping buyers explore homes in Lake Oswego and West Linn, I’m always looking for great local places to recommend. Five Spice is definitely one of those restaurants I suggest to clients who are getting to know the neighborhood. It really shows off the charm and lifestyle that makes the Lake Oswego and West Linn area such a wonderful place to live.
Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Lake Oswego or exploring the West Linn area and want a great meal and a beautiful local dining experience.

I never write reviews, but this was our third experience at Five Spice and will be our last. The location and atmosphere are lovely, but the food has consistently been disappointing.
Tonight, my friend ordered the seafood stew and said the lobster tasted rotten and made her feel sick. It was definitely not fresh!! I ordered scallops that had no sear — they were soft and served with button mushrooms in a very mediocre sauce. For $45, I ate barely a bite and didn’t feel well later that evening.
A few years ago, my husband ordered a fish dish and also felt sick afterward. That makes three separate experiences where the seafood did not seem fresh.
Service was also very slow. There were six of us, and it took over 90 minutes just to place our order. We arrived at 6:00 and didn’t leave until 9:00, without dessert or after-dinner drinks.
We gave it another try after a couple of years, hoping our earlier experience was a fluke, but unfortunately it wasn’t.

This place has great views of Lake Oswego as it is on the second floor. The shrimp and spring roll appetizers were very tasty. The spring roll sauce is a bit spicy so watch out. The fish and chips were cooked to perfection – nice and golden color which I like to see. Fish was rock fish which I had like this for the first time. It really works and tastes amazing. I finished off with the lovely Lemon Posset. It was nice and lemony as expected but also very smooth and creamy. I could have another one for sure as it was really light. The raspberry coulis was a great choice. Drip coffee was also tasty. In some places unfortunately coffee quality is ignored, which leaves a bad taste in your mouth as you leave-here it was great. Our server was very attentive and helpful. I liked his eye for detail while serving and clearing up. No small mess was left behind. He also adjusted the portions of the starters to be enough for 6 people without us reminding him. Great job! I would gladly visit this restaurant again. It is on my good list of places

Five stars for 5 Spice! We’ve stopped in twice in the past week, and it’s quickly becoming one of our favorite go-to spots in Lake Oswego. This isn’t just a fun place to go—it’s a place with real energy. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, the staff is genuinely friendly, and even the other patrons are a pleasure to be around.
Both times we sat at the bar, which is a perfect place to strike up conversations and take in the vibe. The happy hour menu? Fantastic. I had the spring rolls with a bright, flavorful mango sauce that I’m still thinking about, and the calamari came with a deliciously creamy aioli that was spot-on.
The cocktail I had was light, sunny, and just right for the warm day—wish I could remember the name, but it was a winner. The menu is fresh, the service is consistently excellent, and let’s not forget the stunning view of the lake—it really elevates the entire experience.
Highly recommend 5 Spice whether you’re grabbing a casual drink or settling in for a great meal. It’s a gem.

Really enjoyed our entire experience for dinner here. Service was great, waiter was extremely attentive and friendly and the food was outstanding. Ordered quite a few small plates / appetizers, loved the poke and spring rolls. The Brussel sprouts with pork belly are a must and our favorite entree was the stuffed salmon. We were too full for dessert but need to come back to try!

We had a wonderful dinner here. The squid was good but not spicy. Salads were very great with a variety of materials. The fish stew was very good, The lentil main dish was terrific with a lentil base with roasted vegetables and mushrooms on top. We hadn’t visited for some time, but we will be back.
