Harmony — Restaurant in Estacada

Today was my first visit to Harmony, and it won't be the last. What an amazing place to eat. There were seven of us; We were all warmly greeted, and sat down at the large table reserved for us. I got to see a variety of the kinds of meals offered, and all looked so good!! I ordered the special, the walnut-banana French toast, and it was wonderful! I have enough left over for two more breakfasts! It was absolutely delicious.

The décor is beautiful and the café was spotless, including the restroom. It's obvious that the owner is very community-minded and loves what she's doing. Our server, Chrissy, did an outstanding job of serving our meals; she was friendly and efficient, and is a real asset to the business. I also met a fellow knitter up at the front as I left; he was so friendly and helpful. I'm sorry I didn't get his name. It was fun to talk about knitting for a couple of minutes.

Harmony is obviously a favorite; the staff was kept busy all morning while we were there. I can easily see why this is a popular place in town, and I will definitely be back. Everything's made from scratch, and it shows. Thank you for supporting all people and for making this such a wonderful place to...

EDIT: After reading a response from the owner, I see I did have an error in the review. No parsley, and not 'just' bagels. Everything else I wrote I'm going to stand behind. 3 stars, according to Google, is "OK". And yeah, this place, in my opinion, is "OK".

Original Review: A little confusing at first. Wanted to sit down to eat. I get the impression that they have a lot of walk in business that just want baked goods.

The breakfast menu was basic. Not that it was bad, just simple.

The french toast seemed a bit too thick. That would be fine, but it didn't have much wash on it or penetration.

The scramble, basic. The potatoes, frozen and basic.

Their special menu items, not available on the weekends? I'm sorry, I'm at work Thursday and Friday and am not local. May never try the biscuits and gravy or the benedict.

I'm not doing less than three because maybe they win big with the...

Harmony is hands down my family's favorite restaurant in Estacada. Although it was amazing before the change in ownership, we've been especially impressed with it since Jenny Beaudoin took over. Almost everything can be made vegetarian, which is great in a small town that doesn't have many options for us non-meat eaters! I also love how supportive they are of local farmers, businesses, and the food bank. The holiday bundles they've offered in the past are a fun way to feed the family with a few non-food goodies thrown in as well! Their staff is amazing and their food is delicious. The Spanish omelette, Reuben, and breakfast sandwich are some of my family's favorites. Amazingly, their quality is consistent every time we get food from them, even when they're slammed. I highly encourage anybody that's in the area looking for good food to give Harmony a try, you won't be...
