Eleni's Philoxenia - When Eleni Touhouliotis left the island of Crete in 1974 for the United States, she brought with her a Greek cookbook one of her cousins wrote. She prepares Cretian-style food with an abundance of olive oil, garlic and fresh vegetables. Iron Horse Restaurant - Located near Antique Row in the Sellwood District, our items are prepared fresh daily to provide you with authentic Mexican and Southwestern food in a casual and fun setting. Come dine with us on our seasonal sidewalk cafe or in our festive dining room. Blueplate - Slide into a chair by the window or pull up a stool at the counter – feel right at home. The most difficult decision here is between the Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes and the Chicken fried Steak. Share an old-time soda, a chocolate malt or a cowboy coffee shake with friends and family.
