Four stars to Hero's Cafe , Portland. The burgers? Absolute stunners, thick and bursting with flavor. Spacious joint, squeaky clean, and the staff on the ball. Drinks weren't fancy, but they were pretty decent, nothing to complain about. read more

If there's one thing I love, it's a good burger. Is it basic to say it's my favorite food? Maybe. But I don't really care--burgers come in endless varieties, and it's surprisingly easy to make one that's just "meh." The burger from Heroes American Cafe, though, was pretty damn good. They know how to season their patties--the burger was juicy but not too greasy, and the double had the perfect meat-to-everything-else ratio. The bacon was spot-on too: the ideal mix of crisp and chew. I don't want my bacon dead, but I don't want it raw either, and they nailed that balance. I also grabbed a side of tater tots, and honestly, tots are almost always better than fries. These were perfectly salted and crisp, just how they should be. Heroes is absolutely a spot I'll come back to next time I'm in the area. If you're looking for a casual place with a solid burger--or just want a quick, satisfying takeout meal--this should definitely be on your list. read more

Bartender pressured my friend who was sober to drink. well his girlfriend made the attempt to flirt with my boyfriend. The regulars are also constantly over served and yelling profanities.

Place was busy as usual. Waitresses is always prompt to get a drink order, and promptly brings the drinks, then takes your food order. Onion rings came with our sandwich's. Absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly, but the two sandwiches were not great, the chicken sandwich was small and my patty melt had chopped meat, mayonnaise and lots of cheese, with very few onions. Not very good to say the least. Val's hamburger was the best of all, that's what I'd order if I ever came back. Place was clean but very open which means it's pretty loud, but that's just me. Been twice, probably won't go back. read more

I've been here several times in recent years. It's a pretty impressive little pub/cafe. They offer very much "pub food", but much better than most similar places I've been. Really good sandwiches, impressive salads, and lots of fun sides, like onion rings and jalapeno poppers. They actually have a pretty extensive menu overall all! The only downsides are that it gets pretty noisy, and the service is usually so/so. You often have to get up and go and find a server to pay so you can leave, or to get something else that you need. But their food, and the friendliness of the wait-staff more than makes up for those small frustrations. read more

We reserved two tables after our City Tour and were provided with outstanding service and food. They have cocktails, beer and wine as well as an outstanding choice of many food selections.

The food and the service was excellent. Only problem is there was a drunk guy sitting at the bar right next to our table loudly using the F word over and over while talking to the bartender, who was also our server. His drunken loud vulgarities ran customers out of the restaurant and me and my guest were very disturbed but we stayed since it was our first time. we also expected and hoped that the bartender would ask him to tone it down, but he never did. The restaurant appeared to be very clean, including the rest room, except for a thick layer of dust hanging from the vent just above our table. Owners need to decide if they want to be a great sandwich shop or the neighborhood watering hole where guys can come and get drunk before 3 pm. read more

Just left Heroes having ordered their Fish Sandwich and for the second time, it was less than pleasing to the pallet. I asked for chips and got crumbs. The manager said that she just opened the bag... Yea, right! (I get better chips from a vending machine.) The deep-fried fish wasn't golden brown but rather a dark brown. Like the fish was either overcooked or that it was cooked in old grease. I went to pick up the sandwich to take a bite and it fell out of the bun and onto the table. I was a cook and kitchen manager for over thirty years and I vary rarely if ever, complain about the food and the service. Won't be wasting my money there anymore. I'd rather walk down the street and get a sandwich from Starbucks. The problem is that the so-called manager tried to pull the wool over my eyes not knowing that I had spent well over thirty-five years in the restaurant business: And, there is nothing anyone says about how things are or should be done. That was what set me off. Young people today don't understand that presentation is just as important as the quality of the food they are serving or cooking. In this case, they failed miserably. Young people today have no work ethic, no pride, and most importantly no experience and little regard for quality service. My apologies, John. read more

This time around, we shared the garlic Parmesan fries and the chicken wings (buffalo and honey gojuchang sauces). The wings were smoked and moist with good flavor. The fries were alright. More of the aioli would have helped so maybe request extra sauce or get some on the side. The dessert menu has some non-traditional offerings. The highlight for me was the cheesecake. I was assured by a server one time that the chef creates a gluten free cheesecake that rotates on the seasonal dessert menu. The current offering is tiramisu.

First time here, and not impressed…read more We were seated in what seems like "overflow" seating in the back/lower part of the restaurant, which is more cafeteria-style and not a good ambiance. After we ordered, I went to the bathroom and the food was already out when I came back to the table. I ordered a salmon benedict, so it did not seem like it was "made to order." The salmon benedict, although highly recommended by the waitress, was extremely fishy, even though the "hollandaise sauce" (which had no depth of flavor, and was just thick) covered the entirety of the egg, salmon, and english muffin. It came with cheesy hash browns which again had no depth of flavor. Cheese makes anything tasty but it was just too much. The service, while friendly, was not attentive. We were unsure who our server was and I had to flag down the server for the bill and then to take my card 10 minutes later.
