Amazing food, amazing vibes. I can’t believe I haven’t visited this spot in all my years living in the Portland area. Definitely a must for brunch. The chicken fried steak is in my top 5, especially because they do the gravy right. The eggs were cooked at a Michelin level and on top of a slice of baguette were to die for. The potatoes were great but the rest of the meal made me feel like they were just a side dish and not part of the main meal. This is now one of my favorite brunch spots in PDX.

On a beautiful summer evening, we enjoyed drinks and dinner on the outdoor covered patio seating. The food was good as were the drinks.

Food was disgusting, the outside seating was roadside and all the areas smelled like pee, and not just a whiff.The service was slow and very unprofessional with the staff leaning over guests to serve food.Truely gross andan embarrassing dinner with out of town guests.This used to be a great place but now it is on the never again list 🤢🤮

Cute little neighborhood cafe with a bar, indoor and covered outdoor seating. It's an artisan menu so expect small to medium sized appetizers and entree dishes. If you come in with a large appetite, you might need two entrees. The flavors are really great and the cocktails are tasty.

Used to go here quite a bit but then left for five years. It's still really good. Good food and service with a nice location.

Café Nell is always superior. Also, they have happy hour every day, and it's delicious.

I absolutely loved the stuffed avocados. They were unfortunately out of ingredients for the charcuterie and cheese plates.

Long wait time past reservation time, out of what I wanted (but saw the item being served as we where ready to head out), long wait time for food after ordering, it was cold when served and had no flavor, glass had a huge crack, waitress spilled the drink as she took the cracked glass quickly from the table and got soda on us and all over the table. Could go on and on... Won't be returning.
