With a rich history and a picturesque location, this popular eatery offers patrons the chance to step back in time and experience the authentic flavors of the Old West. The Tumalo Feed Co. Steakhouse has a storied history, originating as the Tumalo Emporium in 1965, an antique business evoking the Old West.

It transformed into a landmark restaurant in 1967, known for its buffet dinners and 1950s soda fountain. Ownership changed hands several times until 1991 when John Bushnell and Robert Holley turned it into the Tumalo Feed Company, specializing in steak, seafood, and rocky mountain oysters.

In 2018, Mitch Thisius and Jen Voth took over, restoring the building and modernizing the brand while preserving its nostalgic spirit.

The Tumalo Feed Company's menu is a delightful array of classic Western dishes, prepared with a modern touch. During my visit, I was captivated by the taste of the slow-smoked Prime Rib, cooked to perfection and accompanied by a choice of two sides. The juicy and tender meat was nothing short of divine, leaving me craving more with each bite.

Another standout on the menu is the Chicken Fried Steak, a generous portion of tenderized beef, breaded and fried until crispy and golden. Served with homemade country gravy, this classic comfort food left me feeling satisfied and nostalgic for the simpler times of the Old West.

For seafood enthusiasts, the Grilled Salmon is a must-try. This perfectly seasoned dish comes with a lemon-herb butter, providing a zesty contrast to the rich, flavorful fish. Paired with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Fresh Seasonal Vegetables, it's a well-rounded and delicious meal that truly showcases the versatility of the Tumalo Feed Company's culinary expertise.
