Tina's, Dundee, OR P128
 
A Top Pick in the Area
 
Of the Dundee/Yamhill Valley region of Oregon's "wine country", the wags are starting to say:  "Napa developed when the restaurants came.  Now they're moving to Dundee".

Indeed, Tina's is one such restaurant...just about what you would expect.  It's a little expensive (but the food is excellent); it's a little out of the ordinary (if located in Portland, it would probably be in the top 20 restaurants); and it has an excellent selection of local wines. 

One visit is hardly enough to form concrete opinions, but Tina's is certainly a pleasant place, staffed with friendly, helpful folks with dishes featuring the obvious:  Salmon, Tuna, Beef, Rabbit, Chicken, and Lamb.

Take a drive away from the ordinary city to Dundee, OR.  As you are going south on 99W, it is on the right hand side of the road.  "Tina's" is a little red building built like a one-story house.

I have only eaten lunch there and have found it to be extraordinary. Both times I have had the penne pasta with salmon and rock shrimp.  It is excellent!  Bread and unsalted butter is served before your meal.  A good resturant can be defined by its butter!  Fresh butter is always unsalted. Be prepared to pay a little more for lunch - $8 - 12.  I have only looked at the dinner menu - it looks wonderful.  Prices range from $18 - 26.  Try it out!  Reservations for dinner are recommended but not required.
