From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us with a smile. Even though we didn’t have a reservation, they managed to find us a table in the busy restaurant. Our waitress was also very friendly. The food was very nice, and it turned out to be a wonderful pre-Valentine’s romantic dinner. I would come back!

Worst food and service we have had in Eugene so far! We had reservations for Saturday night 3/7/26, for me and my husband for his birthday. The salt n pepper haired man at the door was not having a good day. Never smiled, just looked at the reservation and sat us down. Watched him wipe his nose, face and beard through out the night while he seated and served water. Our waitress “Jud” knew the specials but was anything but happy, didn’t know her name til we asked when she brought the check. The wine selection was meh, but decent. The French onion soup was thick and tastless. The goat cheese balls were nothing special. The duck breast was tough and needed seasoning, the rice was a blob of glue. The chicken gnocchi dish was dry and bland. Chocolate pot de creme was flat and not worth the calories. No mention or special birthday anything. The bar is the place to sit, not that we will ever be back or tell people to eat there. The bartenders were happy, moving to the music (which was on a loop, we heard soulman three times). The bartender with the ponytail and cool tattoos looked up multiple times making eye contact, smiling and greeting everyone. There was also an older obvious seasoned female waitress who smiled and nodded each time walking by. Not that either of them can change the overall customer service or taste of the food, but at the very least tried. Horrible and not worth the money.

Overall, we had a good experience at this restaurant. The food was enjoyable — the salmon was soft, well-cooked, and flavorful, while the pasta was decent but fairly standard. The menu is somewhat limited, but what they offer is prepared well. Service was quick and efficient. The ambience was typical and comfortable, nothing particularly unique. There is free parking available beside the restaurant and if it’s busy, you may need to find street parking nearby.

A long overdue birthday dinner for my boys. They wanted to go here because they knew and had worked with the owners and some staff and had heard good things about the food.

It was around 7pm on a Wednesday, very easy parking and got a table immediately for the four of us.

Our server Ross was amazing! He helped us with the menu and as it wasn’t very busy, was able to chat with us a little bit and we were very pleased and impressed with his service. He was there quietly in the background and immediately available.

For starters we shared the Fried Calamari and the Duck Confit Poutine. Although enjoyable, the Calamari was overly salty. The poutine was amazing! The duck was very tasty, the fries cooked perfectly, the curds deliciously melty, but the Demi-glacé was so extremely amazing. I wanted to lick the bowl!

My entree was the Summer Vegetable Risotto and it was so fresh and tasty. If there was any negative, it was a little sticky, but wonderful nonetheless.

My sons and husband enjoyed their meals immensely saying the duck and tuna were both cooked to perfection. The fresh vegetables were a great addition. One son and I got the Pot d’creme to go and I ate mine for breakfast, it was extremely tasty.

After the meal, the staff graciously took pictures of my family for us and the boys chatted briefly with an employee they had both worked with previously.

We all agreed that we would return.

Went there for dinner with friends with a dinner reservation. We split our meals, so we could try them all. The roasted carrots were amazing. Far better than I had expected as an appetizer. The duck and lentils were delicious and the shrimp was good. The portion sizes were adequate, but not excessive. The caramel brulee, chocolate mousse, and chocolate of the day were all wonderful. Drinks were good with nice presentation. Friendly staff. Great ambience. I highly recommend.

I have mix feelings about this restaurant. I gave myself a cooling off period before writing this review, which also allowed me to compare it to other Eugene restaurants.

The restaurant ran out of multiple entrees by 7pm, with a relatively small menu. We chose second choices.

Our waiter was either inexperienced or not good at his job. Not familiar with menu, items on the menu, etc..

We started dinner on the patio, but were overwhelmed by flies and bees. Was uneatable out there, and we were moved inside.

The food was too salty for my palate. Dessert (goat cheese cheesecake) was also a miss in execution, despite being two of my favorites.

The food was pretty in its presentation. Though on fiestaware plates.

I am reluctant to be critical of a restaurant probably struggling to provide quality meals and experience in a small city setting. However, I don’t feel the level of this restaurant experience justifies to the cost of the meal… too pricey for what we received. Relatively small portions too. I had better meals and service and lower prices at other restaurants in Eugene on this trip.
This may have been an off day for rye restaurant, but this was my experience.

Wonderful all-round experience for refined meals that don’t exceed the limits of reason. I personally got the poutine, catch of the day dish (Chinook salmon), and a goat cheesecake to finish. Everything was perfectly seasoned and had contrast in its components, so as to not be monotonous or too rich. The staff were very friendly and provided wonderful service throughout my dining experience. Overall, very highly recommended for a fancier dining experience in the Eugene area!

My husband and I and our small dog Stella stopped in Eugene to spend the night on our way up to WA. I wanted a good dinner for us but we needed to bring Stella along for dinner. Thank goodness I found Rye. They have a dog friendly patio for well behaved dogs. We were immediately greeted with cold water and kindness. The patio was nice and shady and comfortable. The food here is fresh and delicious and artistic. My husband had the ribs which he really enjoyed. I had a fresh butter lettuce salad and the soup of the day; a tomato and it was so good I almost wanted another bowl. I also ordered a special pink martini and then one more. Not sure what was in it because it is a bartender secret but I’m guessing it was vodka based and tasted light, fresh and perfect for a summer day. The staff could not have been more attentive or friendly. I think 6 different ones came out to give a hello or a pat on the head for Stella. Do not hesitate to give this jewel of a restaurant a try. You won’t be disappointed.

On an annual pilgrimage to Oregon Country Faire, we most happily stumbled upon a most auspicious eatery. Verily, Rye is a most excellent establishment, situated in the fair city of Eugene, Oregon, that I doth heartily commend to all who seek a delectable and memorable repast. From the moment I crossed the threshold, I was struck by the warm and inviting ambiance, as well as the courteous and attentive staff. One of the dishes that did most impress me at Rye was the saganaki, which was truly a marvel. The cheese was melted to perfection and possessed a most delightful flavor that was well-complemented by the accompanying bread and lemon. It was a most auspicious beginning to the meal and set the tone for the delights that were to follow.
Methinks the charcuterie board, adorned with an array of cheeses, pates, and terrines, is a feast for both the eyes and the palate. The pates and terrines, crafted with the finest meats and herbs, are a savory delight, each bite bursting with flavor. The dried fruits, carefully selected and arranged, add a touch of sweetness and texture to the board, while the stone ground mustard provides a piquant contrast to the richness of the meats and cheeses. The house-made pickled vegetables, with their vibrant colors and crisp textures, are a refreshing accompaniment to the charcuterie.
Another dish that I doth highly recommend is the spring chinook salmon. The fish was cooked to perfection and possessed a most exquisite flavor that was enhanced by the accompanying vegetables, polenta and sauce. It was a truly memorable dish that I would order again, next year without hesitation.
I had the pleasure of sampling the mussels, which were truly outstanding. They were cooked to perfection and possessed a most savory flavor that was well-complemented by the accompanying broth and bread. It was a most delightful dish to share with companions and served as a splendid addition to the meal.
Verily, I must express my utmost admiration for the dish known as sugo della domenica, for it hath transported me to the verdant hills of Tuscany. The tagliatelle was cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of bite, and the sauce was a symphony of flavors that danced upon my palate. The tomatoes were sweet and tangy, ground pork and beef sautéed to magnificence, the garlic was pungent and aromatic, and the herbs were fresh and fragrant. It was a dish that I shall not soon forget and one that I would highly recommend to any lover of Italian cuisine.
Indeed, I must say that the artisanal selection of handmade confections at this establishment is a true marvel. The confections are crafted with the utmost care and attention to detail, using only the finest ingredients and traditional techniques. The chocolates are rich and velvety, with a depth of flavor that is truly remarkable. The bon bons are delicate and decadent, with a smooth and creamy texture that melts in the mouth. Verily, the confection known as toffee is a most wondrous and delectable treat. Its creation is a delicate art, requiring the skillful blending of sugar and butter, heated to a precise temperature until it reaches a rich, golden hue. Once cooled, it is then broken into small, bite-sized pieces, each one a symphony of sweetness and texture. Truly, to partake of this confection is to experience a moment of pure indulgence, fit for the most discerning of palates. Truly, the confections at this establishment are a testament to the skill and artistry of the master confectioners who create them. It is a pleasure and an honor to partake in such exquisite treats, and I would highly recommend them to any lover of fine sweets.
Truly, Rye hath outdone themselves, and it is a testament to their commitment to excellence in all aspects of their menu. In sum, I cannot recommend Rye highly enough. The cuisine is exceptional, the ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff is courteous and attentive. If thou art in search of a fine establishment in Eugene, Oregon, I doth implore thee to visit Rye.
