Road trip questions - Maryhill, WA to Eugene, OR

Hi everyone, My mom and I will be traveling from Royal City, to Maryhill and then on to Eugene/Springfield for the upcoming Relay4Life. We have no specific plans on wether to drive the WA side or the Oregon side of the Columbia once we get to Maryhill. Is there a decent place to take her to dinner at somewhere along the gorge area? We hope to visit the Wagonyard BBQ while in Eugene, but reccomendations for breakfast and dinner would be wonderful. Have cruised these boards and seen some recs for Eugene. Appreciate any and all help offered. Thanks

Dinner before the show at 5th Avenue Theater and drinks/dessert after?

Thanks for the rec. we will be sure to try Vessel. We are so looking forward to the show and are already planning a second trip to see South Pacific. I will check back again to find new rec's for restaurants to enjoy that weekend.

Thank you for the suggestion. Vessel sounds great! We are so looking forward to the show and are purchasing tickets for South Pacific, too! Then I will treat her to some of the amazing food we weren't able to get to during our holiday trip. Will be checking out this board for it's timely recs. Thanks again.

Thanks, I've been checking out this board for hours now and am so jealous that my daughter lives near such great food and entertainment opportunities. Hopefully, we can start to enjoy more of them with her after she graduates and starts working (that's after all the student loans are paid off, of course). The city is so pretty at Christmas, we are looking forward to a wonderful holiday weekend. I hope to do some major Christmas shopping, hit the Spa at Nordstroms and have a carraige ride. Doing my part to stimulate the economy! Will talk about the trip and the restaurants we dined at after.

My daughter is taking me out to dinner and a show for my Christmas present this year (I'm a sucker for a musical). I live in Eastern Washington and she's in Olympia. We have reservations for the show and a room at the Fairmont. I don't want her to spend a fortune on dinner so I think the Georgian is out. We both enjoy food, but she is just beginning to expand her palate . Is there someplace nearby that we can go to have dinner and still make the 8pm show. Someplace nice but not too spendy(she's a college student). Maybe a place after for a drink and special dessert? I've been looking at the site and hadn't seen anything specifically addressing the pre-show meal. To make things more complicated I am recovering from heart surgery and won't be able to walk up and down the hills like we used to.
