We found a hidden gem. The food was so yummy, and the mimosas were a nice surprise. Speaking of gems Grace who does it all was so sweet, and top notch. We will be back!

LOVED everything, and Every time we went, food, coffee, service, not one thing to complain about...regret not going more often.
Parking: Small, COZY restaurant, don't let that keep you from going, just plan accordingly, VERY WORTH it!!!

So I have to say that. I'm very disappointed with this restaurant when I get there. This is my first time selecting this establishment. So I obviously don't know what to do or where to go. So I see a line outside and the people point me in in the restaurant and stated that I needed to put my name on the list. As I try to do that, I walk in a guy with Some type of clipboard ushers me out and states to me that I need to step outside he was confusing and uncouth in his mannerism so I follow so I can put my name on the list I guess? At least thats what I'm assuming, so I stated to him that the people explained to me that I had to put my name on the list. He says, well those people don't work here so I need you to just stand outside and just wait for me. Well, first of all, if you're running a business not only is that rude and crude behavior but it's unacceptable. Because if you run a business you should have a little more tact in dealing with your customers and you definitely should be polite when conveying instructions to a first time customer. Needless to say I will never return. That guy needs to learn customer service. I left and gave my business to another establishment I've heard an establishment is as good as their reputation. If this is how you act i will make sure that every table i sit at I will mention this bad experience.

Fantastic food and service. 10/10 recommend. There aren't enough really good breakfast restaurants in Portland, and this place blew me away.

I'll start with WOW! I love going out for breakfast and Little Griddle didn't disappoint. The eggs over-easy, were perfect; the roasted potatoes were delightful; and I'd go back just for the biscuits. It's small, but comfortable. I prefer counter seating, but the 2-top was fine. Only complaint, it was a little chilly.

My partner and I were looking for a brunch spot and excitedly stumbled across Little Griddle. Their menu looks amazing, it looks they've got lots of great veggie options, and I'm sure their food is likely tasty. We got there around 11:40ish and decided to sit outside due to the space being on the smaller side. It was a really pleasant, standard PNW mid-morning/afternoon so we were content with our seating. It was also understandably busy, but we're fairly patient people and don't mind pivoting. When the waiter brought us our waters and coffee we noticed that my partner's mug had a very obvious lipstick stain on his cup. Again, we extend a lot of grace to folks in the service industry, especially within the context of how hard restaurants have taken a hit due to Covid, and given that we both have worked in it for twenty-plus years ourselves. Luckily I had a travel-size first aid kit with some alcohol wipes, so we just wiped off the lipstick and kept looking over the menu. The waiter had come out a bit after and asked us if we were ready, to which we responded that we just needed a few more minutes. Folks slowly trickled in and were being seated as we were waiting. We set our menus aside and patiently waited for nearly fifteen or so minutes. Again, they're a brunch spot with lots of good reviews and a great menu selection so it made sense that they were busy. It became disappointing when we noticed folks who were seated after us were being brought their orders. Not one person came back to check on us despite being seated directly in front of their large front-facing window. I eventually went inside and waited for the person in front of me to be seated to ask for the bill for the two black coffees that we hardly touched (the latter being sort of besides the point, but still). The person behind the counter at the register had asked if we had any food to which I responded that we just had the coffees as we had been waiting. They didn't address that we had been patiently waiting to have our orders taken to such an excessive degree that we decided to leave. I am not one to ask for food to be re-made or comp'd. I know how much work goes into working at a restaurant; however, in this case I would've personally chosen not to charge for two simple black coffees given the circumstances. We can't control for everything. And I can't expect for them to notice an (although very bright) lipstick stain. I do believe humans are doing their very best, especially given the economy, etc., but we were continually let down by this spot. Perhaps it was an off day, totally valid... However, I'm not quite sure I'd feel compelled to return despite how good their food may be given our experience. Which stinks because we love breakfast foods, lol.

Had a wonderful breakfast here, the challah bread French toast with blueberry compote was Devine. Real Maple Syrup! The trucker's breakfast was great with bacon and the pepper jam was super tasty on the biscuit! Will come again!

My wife and I stopped here for breakfast, on a whim, while on vacation exploring Portland. The food was incredible, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was great. My breakfast sandwich was delicious and my wife loved the French toast. We would definitely eat here again.
Nice, cozy little place on 42nd. The food is home cooked food. I didn't think I would find Shakshoka.. but they serve it. It's great.

What a treat!! The chocolate chip pancake was perfect! Huevos benedictos and the bacon and cheese skillet were amazing. Super flavorful. The toast had the best crunch! Give it a try. They are pet friendly and if you want a meal for your pup they offer you unseasoned scrambled eggs. Staff was super friendly as well!
