    → Re-read the official pages before using this record for a decision.

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.

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

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