The West Hills area of Portland is situated roughly in between Beaverton and downtown Portland. Though mostly residential, and rarely considered a food “hotspot” in Portland, recent years have seen places like Burger Stevens to go on to become city-wide hits. Large restaurant groups like the Sesame Collective have begun to open restaurants in the area as well, suggesting that the area is an up-and-coming destination.
Because the West Hills area is in both Multnomah and Washington county, it’s worth checking the county restrictions for the specific restaurant before visiting to check what level of dining is available. This guide focuses primarily on take out and curbside pickup, but some locations are offering outdoor dining. As usual, this list is organized geographically, not ranking.
A number of Portland restaurants have resumed outdoor dine-in service. The level of service offered is indicated on each map point. However, this should not be taken as endorsement for dining in, as there are still safety concerns: for updated information on coronavirus cases in your area, please visit the Oregon Health Authority’s COVID update page. Studies indicate that there is a lower exposure risk when outdoors, but the level of risk involved with patio dining is contingent on restaurants following strict social distancing and other safety guidelines.
