    Breakfast
    Rachel S.

    I honestly don't give 5/5 but this was actually so yummy. Breakfast is something you can get anywhere but this place. Divine!!! Everything was sooo yummy (expect the cholula hot sauce... where the heat at :( ) but the food was so good. I will be coming again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we walked in we did feel like this was an ihop. So ambiance... family friendly for sure.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was good nothing special but good.

    Fantastic service and very friendly staff. The breakfast was delicious and it's cooked to order, while that may take a few extra minutes it's certainly worth the wait.

    First breakfast in Beaverton before we hit the popup vinyl record sale down the road - it's a chain so we knew it would be consistently decent food and fairly quick. I was excited to see Dutch Baby on the menu and immediately knew I needed to try it. It comes with eggs and choice of meat. I went with Lingonberry butter as my topping. I think the room was cold because my Lingonberry butter had butter clumps that never melted. Service was quick and attentive with the place packed to the gills. Pancakes were great and the chicken sausage was not too dry. Dependable and just what we needed to start our day

    Very welcoming and warn diner. Nice location, good amount of space, and good food. Decent coffee. Very nice and attentive service. Great chili vibe. I dined there twice in a week, and both times, my food was nice, especially for the price. I wish they used less sauce. They followed my request for less cheese. I will go back quite often.

    I would move to Portland just for Elmer's Kitchen! The food is very fresh and delicious. I want to order one of everything on the menu! I ordered cinnamon roll pancakes and OMG, just mouthwatering, I am OBSESSED. My friend, who is a local, ordered the strawberry crepes; which I tried. Again, delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes are very chill and give off a nice local small-business feeling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is much better than any chain like Dennys or iHop! Elmer's Kitchen is a must-try when in the area.

    Great food as always!!!! Rancher's Breakfast with Strawberry crepes!

    As always food is great and so is the service! Our server Dora was the sweetest! I can't believe my picky eater 9 year old finished his entire plate, this rarely happens! But what I'd like to mention today is how the staff accommodated a person with a rollator walker. Truly outstanding! The elderly gentleman had one of those bulky rollers so they decided they will be removing a "standing floor divider" so he and his party can take the nearest tables so he doesn't have to maneuver his walker all the way to the back of the restaurant, they then asked if he would like them to store his walker away while they ate. That was such a nice gesture! That's why I love coming here! Everyone is just so kind and friendly!!!

    I don't know why I sometimes forget that Elmer's Kitchen has some pretty solid brunch options, but definitely come here if you're in the mood for classic American comfort food. Not only do they offer lunch and dinner options, but they serve breakfast all day. I've only been here for brunch and would usually order the Lingonberry Crepes (aka Swedish Pancakes) or the Classic German Pancake (aka Dutch Baby), both are always wonderful. However, this time around I wanted to indulge in their Crabacado omelette and the Husby had the Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs. It was definitely a hearty breakfast. I loved the chunks of dungeness crab in my omelette. The hash browns were average, wish they were a little more crispier. Other than that, they also have good coffee and servers were really friendly.

    Recent visit was not so great. The place seemed clean, the menu selection for breakfast pretty good. We ordered a traditional egg plate and the potato cake plate. The potato cakes were just way too salty for me. If not for the salt they really would've had good flavor. Much to the same tune, the hash browns on my husbands plate were excessively salty too. And not distributed excessive salt but like clumps of salt, so much so my husband gave up and stopped eating them. All other items on our plates were seasoned well and the biscuit was quite good. (I also ordered my egg over hard and received medium, runny.) Our server wasn't overly friendly but seemed capable...but then he left for break. As our food came to the table he alerted us that it was break time but that 3 others would tend to us. No one else approached us at all during the break, not even for a coffee check. Unfortunately not the best breakfast experience.

    If your looking to decent breakfast in town go for it, only downside is small serving. But other wise its tasty and good food.

    I've never had a "Smash Burger"…read more Now I'm convinced that I don't wanna try any others. I kid I kid.... However, I'll rate this the best Smashburger I've ever tried. I'm giving it five stars, because to me it was perfect. Let me describe. The Bun 9/10 soft and fluffy, great flavor. The fixings 9/10 Strike sauce, lettuce, pickle, and if you choose American cheese. You could have caramelized, onions or bacon, added to it as well. The strike sauce is ketchup, mayo, mustard. Mixed perfectly. They have so many drinks to choose from. I decided to get the Mountain Dew pineapple apple so good. The service was excellent, friendly smiles, answered any questions that I had. Food came out, had a very fast reasonable time for quality to be met. This place is meant to have orders to go. It did seat around eight inside and had some seating outside available if you wanted to eat there. My overall experience 10 out of 10. I'll definitely be coming back. If you've been waiting to find or try a really good Smashburger, there's definitely no need to look any further. This little hidden gem is perfect to curb. You're cravings.

For 4 people with 4 burgers (comes with salad and 3 pot stickers) and 4 sodas -- it was just over $100. This seems like a lot for a "fast food" type restaurant. The food was good, not great. I got the jalapeño popper burger, I guess I misread as I thought the jalapeño and cream cheese was inside. It was not, there was a large bacon wrapped jalapeño not he top. Otherwise a plain burger. Miss opportunity I thought. The Skippy burger was good -- but some bacon and a spicy sriracha or something would make it better, and less sweet. Chicken burger was good. Don't remember the 4th burger (sorry). I also wish they offered a different green -- they only have arugula which I do not enjoy -- so the salad did nothing for me. Pot stickers were great! Would try again if ever in the area.

They were crispy but overly oily, and the creamy mayo-based sauce didn't pair well with them. This Appetizer took too long to come out. For the Ahi Poke Tuna - Glad I asked for the sauces on the side. Even with three sauce options, none really worked with the dish. One dark sauce tasted almost like molasses, overly sweet and not something you expect with poke. The chili sauce was also too sweet, while the soy-based sauce tasted excessively salty (fish sauce maybe added in it). I added malt vinegar myself just to balance the flavor. Also, it would be nice if the fish was seasoned with salt(or something) to alter the fishy flavor. The Fish & Chips was average at best. The batter was uneven, with some parts way too thick, though the fries were okay. Experience was not horrible, server was nice and ambiance inside is pretty. I just think the kitchen needs real work.

The service has been quite good. I'm a person who likes spicy food, but my ideal preference is food spiced well, giving it lots of flavor. Recently had the fish and chips: no clue what type of fish it was, but it tasted perfect. The batter on the fish wasn't too thick and it spiced perfectly. The fries were spiced well, the homemade tartar sauce with dill was excellent. I'm even a fan of the coleslaw: not too thick, fresh ingredients with a light sauce. Unexpectedly, had to order a Thirsty Lion meal from a delivery service: everything showed up packed perfectly, nothing missing. The attention to detail impressive, the fact that they included a wedge of lemon for the fish and even a sprig of something green for a garnish was a nice touch. If you've noticed that a lot of restaurants are starting to have a similar taste...you're not hallucinating...I call them SYSCO restaurants. More and more restaurants have their menus designed and their ingredients provided by 1 company...a company that specializes in cafeteria food. Thankfully, the Thirsty Lion doesn't have that vibe (when and if it does, we'll never return).

I am already anxious to come back to order it again as it was that flavorful. Side note...the tartar sauce was also one of the best I have had. I will be back...soon.
