    Breakfast tostada special
    Gretchen G.

    Great food and attentive service. If you like it hot ask for the house made hot sauce. It's very good. They sell it by the bottle, we bought two!

    Build Your Own Scramble was delicious
    Terrance S.

    Would give this 5 stars but this was my first visit and I need to try more options. The ingredients were fresh and tasty. I will definitely be back. Great location, great staff, and great vibe. Make sure you give it a shot.

    Compact, cozy but reliably good breakfast spot in Multnomah Village. They serve legit Stumptown coffee, and the servers are beyond helpful. Excellent selection of benedicts, scrambles and even salads and sandwiches, if you're looking for lunch. My Greek scramble was perfect with loads of spinach, feta and tomatoes. Ambiance is a bit dark, unless you score a table by the window, but a super friendly spot. Highly recommend.

    Beautiful pancakes with organic maple syrup.

    Beautiful dishes, DELICIOUS PANCAKES! I got the Eggplant Polenta Benedict and it was really good and my kiddo got the pancakes and loved them. The smoothie was also delicious. The staff went out of their way for us and you can tell they love and respect their locals.

    Northwest Scramble

    I have been wanting to give this place a try for a while and finally stopped in for a Sunday brunch. We were seated right away which was great! It was not too busy around 11:30am. Food: 1. Northwest scramble-7/10 the food came out within 5-8 mins which was extremely fast and I liked that. The portion size was perfect for me but might be a little small for someone else or if you are really hungry. The food was hot, fresh and had a good taste (I mean it is a fairly simply meal so pretty hard to mess it up, IMO). 2. Mimosa- nothing too special here 3. Latte- same, nothing stood out about it, average latte Overall 7/10, I would say the service and food was above average. Nothing stood out to me, good or bad, for me it was as just another brunch place in town and somewhere new to try. I will note that the menu is expansive and I would consider returning to have lunch at some point. Also one last note, the restaurant is very small in size and the tables are quiet close together so if you do not like being close to other customers then this isn't the place for you.

    Seating is very limited but food is great. Great service. Has a little different menu than an ordinary breakfast place.

    For a Sunday brunch I was so surprised this cozy spot was almost nearly empty. Upon first arrival the full staff was nice and the food was delicious . Make sure to grab a smoothie to really get that nice juice of nutrients that you maybe missing. They had a special of crab cakes and let me tell you it was perfect of savory and such with the hollandoise sauce. The plates were perfect amount Me and partner can't wait to come back for the food.

    Food~One of my best girl friend (that's a big foodie like me recommended we do burger week) and, I!…read moreIt was new thing to me so I was super excited about the burger and, the experience. We both got the Blackberry Bramble Smash Burger (of course blackberry compote, goat cheese, and arugula). She thought It came with jalapeños but, It would totally make it even better but, it was still a delicious burger. We also got a small fry (3 people could share it). Service~It was a very nice guy off to the side taking orders (where you could order different beers on tap) Ambiance~It's located in a strip mall on Powell (lots of other food carts right in the middle of everything). Very relaxing (but, it was 2 bees that swear we had honey on us a little annoying but, it didn't stop us from enjoying our food and the outdoors). It's plenty of parking and seating. I spoke to few people and, had a decent conversation for a few minutes. It's still burger week until the 21s (check it out)! I love Pizza so now I know this is a thing I look forward to participating in other local events!

    This place is retro, shabby, comfy, and delightful. Here in the heart of the Oregon craft beer…read morescene, this place is the flagship of all things sold that come in a sealed container. Thousands of options here in one gigantic marketplace, and something for everyone! The marketplace itself is quite dated. Yet it is eclectic and quirky. It is welcoming and irrefutably very memorable. There is a dedicated area to serve beer on tap with a list of about 12 options and then there is a restaurant with a limited menu. Mostly things like burgers, sandwiches, and other common pub fair. There are vegetarian options available. When your order is ready, they use an overhead mic that is resemblance of something that you would hear over the loudspeaker at an 80s rollerskating rink. On site, there are bathrooms and areas for seating that include bar tops, high tops, and even a couple of comfy couches. There is an outdoor patio that is very inviting during the warmer months of the year. Ultimately, this is an incredibly impressive presentation of beverages. Perhaps even something that some people would consider a museum of sorts. Either way, there is definitely choices for everyone, and this is an establishment that can't be missed. Yes, you can visit the other location on Powell, but nothing will ever match up to the original location here in Multnomah village. An experience, a chance to shop and stockpile some beer, but truly a showcase of excellence in beer culture in the heart of our city.

    Food was cooked good so highly recommend got the food itself!…read more Coffee is a 2/10 Today our family went for breakfast and had a horrible experience with the waitress, she was extremely rude, condescending, also extremely impatient making faces and rolling her eyes to our elderly grandfather who's in his 80s and his hard of hearing. She displayed rude behavior, acted bothered when we asked for napkins and water. She should not be in service with that attitude. Her name is Lupita, it wasn't busy we were kind despite her bad display of behavior. Lupita is not an asset to this company. We know a lot of people in the area and want to refer them there for the food, but if they went there and had her as the waitress, they would all walk out and leave.! Disappointed

    Service was prompt and friendly. Decor is sort of generic. Walls are mango colored but all blank…read more They should add some artwork. I dont care because i come to a breakfast place to eat not to look at the walls. They have actual fresh squeezed orange juice which is awesome! I had a chicken fried steak with hash browns. The gravy was excellent. I would go there again.

    I know I've written a review for this place. This was supposed to be an update…read more We experience all emotions on our last visit, and I wanted to share so others can experience this. They have great scones. This is always what we order here. They have cranberry, buckwheat and a special blueberry cream version. We stopped by after eating at GIGI's, to get a scone. There were only buckwheat, that's not our fav. We were hear for cranberry. It's the best. We were about to leave, with sad looks on our face. I figured I'd just ask... you never know. The person behind the counter said they would check, it might be a long time if they are baking. Fingers crossed! We had some hope... but really I didn't think they had any. The person came back and said, YES we have them. They are fresh out of the oven!!! OMG From sadness, to hope, to surprise happiness. But then we tasted one in the car. I don't think I can go back to just buying room temp scones anymore. I'd really like to sign up for the hot scone club. Any scone fans out there need to try this. It was so delicious!

The dough was light, crisp, and perfectly delicate, and the rhubarb was the true star--tart but beautifully balanced, not overwhelming at all. I went mid-morning, and it was fresh, not sitting around, which made a big difference. I honestly wish I had grabbed a second one, but my waistline politely voted no.
