Absolutely amazing food, service and staff. Not the biggest fan of Amaros table but Cecilia was absolutely 10/10 on every accord. We are also a huge fan of Gustave’s! Will absolutely be back. What’s crazy to me, the pricing isn’t even far off of most diners these days but the food is next level.

Went in for lunch with a friend. I ordered the chefs omelette. It was delicious though it was missing the sundried tomatoes.
I mentioned this to our server, she was very apologetic though she didn’t need to be as the meal was still wonderful. The manager came over and also apologized and offered to make me a replacement. I was good and full by this time so I told them it was not necessary but I appreciated it.
They were far too kind and offered us some delicious doughnuts and even comped my meal though they did not need to go that above and beyond.

I have eaten there a few times and it’s always such amazing food and great service. I will always go back. 10/10 across the board. 😌

This was the first time I’ve been here and it will not be the last. The food was delicious. We had the French toast appetizer that is served with fresh fruit, whipped cream, and syrup on the side. Main brunch course was the chilaquiles and eggs Benedict with home fries. The chilaquiles Were served with a shredded beef that is marinated in a delicious Guajillo pepper sauce, It was definitely made to order because the chips still had a bite to them, which is my favorite part. You can always tell when people pre-make it because the chips are soggy and they should not be like that in an authentic dish.
The eggs Benedict hollandaise sauce was divine and done correctly. The eggs were cooked to perfection. Overall, the atmosphere was definitely very busy. We sat at a very long table. I do appreciate that they didn’t overcrowd the table, because it was a family style table, but they only sat three parties. One at each end and then one in the middle which was nice, but it definitely gets crowded fast.
Highly recommend giving this place a try it will easily become one of your favorite brunch spots

This place was awesome. Just looking for a place to get breakfast. The reviews where good so I thought o.k. I'll have a go. I have a trip planned to go to Portland soon but he'll I'll just take a drive just to have breakfast here again. MUST GO if you're in the area.

UPDATE: The quesabirria has been removed from the menu. 🫨 That's a crying shame. But the good news is that it's now on Amaro's Table happy hour.

VIBE: The art direction is savvy and more spacious than La Provence.

FOOD: My wife likes the Tres Leches French Toast. It wasn't too sweet aside from the whipped cream. She's also a big fan of the Dutch Baby. My son likes the chicken and waffles. Amaro's has amazing chicken so of course they're going to have that on the menu. The biscuits and gravy comes with bacon and eggs. It sounds enormous but their style of biscuits are much smaller. The gravy is a bit different than the garden variety. It was good but I like the traditional style better. They have two kinds of Benedicts. I like the usual one with ham. The coffee is kind of bitter. If you like spicy, ask for their habanero sauce.

HAPPY HOUR: Cecilia now has a happy hour...and it is my new favorite. The quesabirria is dynamite. I like the Saucy Tenders too. I was pleasantly surprised at the prices on the happy hour menu. The burger is only $8. Speaking of America's most popular handheld, Cecilia's take has a twist. Instead of lettuce it has arugula. All that on a brioche bun is a fantastic deal for just eight bucks.

The artichoke salad has a clever presentation, but it's a little heavy on the dressing.

BAR: They have good cocktails but I wish they had a few more bottles.

INSIDER INSIGHT: Cecilia is the same owner as Amaro's Table and Gustav's. It seems they've not let their other restaurants bar programs rise to the level of Amaro's.

I'm mildly celiac, and ordered the gf pancakes. There was an issue in the kitchen, and it took 3 tries to get the pancakes. My partner ordered the chefs special. By the time I got pancakes,she was done. The manager Tami came, comped us desserts, fruit, and then comped the entire meal! We were happy that they made it right. We've never had issues there.

Great staff and the amazing food and attention to detail! Love the breakfasts and the doughnuts!! Make a reservation at least 3 days in advance and there is no wait. Otherwise you are likely waiting awhile

What can I say!? Amazing. We're having a hard time believing this is mainly a brunch place, because dinner was insane. We got the spinach artichoke dip, fusilli pasta, salmon, jambalaya, and pan seared chicken.. all 10/10! Then, topped it off with bread pudding and donuts (they gave for free to celebrate our girls trip). Thank you, Cecilia!!!!

Cecilia is delightful for breakfast!
I had the chicken and waffle with two eggs. The chicken was seasoned perfectly (just salty enough to enhance the sweetness of the syrup) and so tender and juicy. The waffle was light and fluffy and soaked up the syrup and yolk well. Staff was attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and full of the sound of happy conversations. There was no wait to sit at the bar. Come early if you don't want to wait for a table.
