ELEVATED. FRESH. SMOKEY. UTTERLY DELICIOUS. Hickory was born from the simple belief that familiar, recognizable foods can be elevated by using the freshest Pacific Northwest ingredients and enhanced by inventive New American cuisine flavor profiles. Our owner, Matt Olson, is a local businessman, restaurateur, and avid hunter and fisherman. He believes the best tasting dishes are made from wholesome, locally sourced ingredients. Hickory not only offers a flavorful dining experience to our guests, it helps us support the regional economy and showcase the amazing bounty provided by nearby farmers and fishermen. We overlook nothing at Hickory, from friendly, attentive service to the food we serve. Our made-from-scratch fare includes smoke-kissed meats prepared in our on-site smokers and served with our chefs’ secret recipe BBQ sauce. Salads made with the finest seasonal greens are accompanied with homemade dressings. Our pantry includes hand-selected artisanal ingredients, such as small-batch canned Albacore tuna, and our refrigerators are stocked with local cheeses. Come join us. We think you’ll find the taste and quality of our food is something special.

In 1995, Sonny and his wife, Joon, opened their first Mio Sushi restaurant in a small Victorian house in Portland, Oregon. Their creative take on classic Japanese dishes combined with unique house-made sauces would draw lines around the block. With over 20 years of experience as a sushi chef, Sonny created a full-service, casual Japanese restaurant combining classic and creative fusion dishes reflecting the local flavors and ingredients of the Pacific Northwest. Today, we are a group of 11 locally-owned restaurants throughout Oregon and Washington. At Mio Sushi, we pride ourselves on providing seafood that is fresh, delicious and healthy for you and your family. All fish items on Mio Sushi’s menu are sourced from sustainable fisheries where possible. Furthermore, we would like to be a part of global efforts to protect and sustain the ocean’s increasingly endangered and fragile biodiversity and ecosystems. We have asked all of our vendors to provide us with detailed information on the fish products we serve in our restaurants. The debate on the sustainability of fish is far from complete and we continue to educate ourselves to be conscious of our impact on the environment and beyond.

Hiking Trails

This is a great easy hike just a couple miles from the house. It is a three and a quarter mile walk right along the lake. Enjoy the woods, water, and animals along the trail. At the far end there is a playground and boat launch if you bring your water toys along for the trip.
