Watch items

  1. Official sources conflict — both claims preserved

    Retain each source, date and field conflict; do not select the more favorable statement without evidence.

    Call (503) 235-0059 and ask the conflicted field as a direct question. Keep both recorded claims visible until sources converge; do not adopt the friendlier one.

  2. Review due within the current cycle

    Reviewed 2026-08-05 · next review 2026-08-12.

    Volatile fields — hours, availability, price — should be confirmed in the same call.

  3. Google Places reports wheelchairAccessibleEntrance (+3)

    wheelchairAccessibleEntrance · wheelchairAccessibleParking · wheelchairAccessibleRestroom · wheelchairAccessibleSeating. Retrieved 2026-08-10T21:34:07.260Z — third-party directory signal only; first-party route remains unstated.

    Hold as corroboration only. Confirm entrance and restroom on the restaurant's own pages or by phone if a guest needs access detail.

Residual unknowns — carried forward, not resolved

  1. Dietary handling requires direct confirmation

    Menus identify some vegetarian dishes, but many preparations contain allergens even when not listed. Individual allergy and cross-contact suitability requires direct confirmation.

    Confirm before inviting anyone with a restriction.

  2. Access honesty marker: route unstated

    Detailed physical-access route and restroom information were not stated in the reviewed first-party pages.

    Ask only if a guest needs it; the record does not claim accessibility either way.

  3. Live availability

    Recorded as unknown at the last first-party review; not inferred, not filled.

    Carry into the confirmation call if it bears on your night.

  4. Detailed step-free route and restroom configuration

    Recorded as unknown at the last first-party review; not inferred, not filled.

    Carry into the confirmation call if it bears on your night.

  5. Individual allergy and cross-contact suitability

    Recorded as unknown at the last first-party review; not inferred, not filled.

    Carry into the confirmation call if it bears on your night.

  6. Google Places reports vegetarian options; allergy/dietary policy still thin first-party

    Vegetarian amenity is not an allergy guarantee. Cross-contact practice remains first-party only.

    Confirm dietary handling on the official menu or by phone.

Confirmation script

  2. Volatile fields — hours, availability, price — should be confirmed in the same call.
  3. Hold as corroboration only. Confirm entrance and restroom on the restaurant's own pages or by phone if a guest needs access detail.
