    Nightmare

    I've had much better biscuits and gravy from my school cafeteria. no seasoning at all, just a flavorless and strange mystery paste on top of prepackaged tube biscuits. Some people may like it that way(old people) just not for me. the ai generated character on the menu is off putting and slightly disturbing to say the least.

    Chicken fried steak!

    Great diner! Pappy himself stopped at the table to say hi. Chicken fried steak steak with eggs and hash browns were excellent. The gravy was tasty but not heavily seasoned. True diner decorations rounded out breakfast nicely

    Returning from a Wilsonville errand, got the hankering for a pancake and looked up my Yelp help to divert to Pappy's! It's easy to miss on the 2nd Ave as it's hidden on the side of a white building around the corner from the Jui Jitsu club. Crane your neck after that first building and eyeball the American Flag next to a built-up wall sign, Holly Street MALL that looks like only office names would appear, and it's the first door on the right. Prices can't be beat even with the $2.00 increase on Entrees and $1.00 Sides and lotsa home made goodies like the corned beef hash, pork sausage patties, biscuits, etc and lots to choose from and I overheard Pumpkin Bread is on deck! Menus are laminated so you'll see handwritten signs on the front door and inside to notify you of the price increase. THE GRUB Hubby loved loved his sirloin steak about 12oz just $12.50, rare as ordered with nice char grill marks still, sunny eggs, browns, house biscuit and just can't wait to return! Waitress sold me on the Dog Leg $11.00, 2 house sausage patties and eggs (poached soft one was little clear but didn't have to send back) and opted for red home fries which were well seasoned and grilled, so much so hubby ate many when his fork typically turns away! With English Muffin, it was food overload (winge) to add a $4 pancake that I REALLY wanted but tabled for next trip.. COFFEE $2.00 is not bad, like a Farmers Bros brew, forgot to ask..hot and plentiful and stays hot in the standard mugs they use, yes! Those other common off-white concave ones in many breakfast houses just lose heat way too quickly. DECOR is old school black & white checker floor and red diner Coca Cola all about, and the waitress blends in with her tall beehive! Service is attentive and no nonsense but nice enough :D we'll be back!

    This morning my family and I were in the mood for breakfast and didn't want to go to a classic chain restaurant. I ended up finding Pappy's on Yelp and instantly knew that we had to go. From the second you walk in you get a cozy diner and old vintage decor. That right there I knew we found a winner. Staff was friendly and attentive. The food was tasty and those homemade biscuit were AMAZING. I definitely recommend Pappy's and I look forward to going back.

    The food matches the restaurant name. Service was good. Pappy, the owner walked the floor and chatted with all of the patrons.

I said yes my husband's 81 birthday and asked what would I like special. I said a piece of cake with one candle. When we arrived, our waitress did not ask me if we were celebrating a special event, but I heard her ask another table and they sang happy birthday, etc. Why does the online reservation platform ask that question if my response is not relayed to staff at the restaurant? I mentioned this to the hostess on the way out and she said did you mention this to your server? I said I should not have to since I was asked this question when I filled out the on line reservation. Also, the last time we were there at happy hour, it was extended to our table. This waitress said it only applied to the bar area, not the sit down dinner restaurant. Who is correct? We will not be going back to this restaurant chain. Improve staff communication and on line reservation requests.

I got a chicken pirozhki which had pastry that was flaky and rich but not greasy, and a surprisingly hearty filling of chicken, garlic, white sauce, green onion, and tomato. If you'll forgive the somewhat crass comparison, it was like a Kirkland chicken bake, refined with delicate care into a very gourmet dish. The staff were great, a very positive experience. For counter serve, it was very slow (maybe 10 minutes from ordering to eating) but the shop is located in a little market / event venue so there was plenty to explore while we waited. The real stand out, though, is the pelmeni. Available as a dish or to take home frozen in 3 or 5 pound bags, these little beef or chicken dumplings are perfectly spiced and seasoned. I got a 3 pound bag of the beef and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Prepared as they do in the store, with some sour cream, the pelmeni are a sumptuous meal. The tangy sour cream contrasts the savory meat and accents the subtle spices. I wasn't the only one drooling over the dumplings, either - my puppy, on smelling the beef, had to be locked in the other room to keep him from trying to steal the bowl.

My friend really enjoyed her fish and onion rings. She was going to take some home for dinner, but there was nothing left to take home. My prime rib was over-heated and came out well-done and dry. I ate around the edges and picked at the potatoes. The first batch of hushpuppies that came out was still raw. The server said we were lucky cause we got a free mini corn dog.

They were fully cooked when she brought them back, but they were missing one key element. There was no hint of jalapenos. You could see green specks but could not taste them. If I am ever in the area again, I will come back and try something else.

    A Flavorful Escape in Hillsboro! If you haven't made the…read moretrip to Top Burmese Ambassador on Main Street, you are missing out on one of the most unique and soulful dining experiences in the Portland area. While the original NW 21st location is a classic, the "Ambassador" location in Hillsboro feels like a true elevation of the brand, combining incredible hospitality with a menu that is a masterclass in Burmese flavors. Here is why this spot is an absolute 5-star gem: The Tea Leaf Salad (Laphet Thoke): You cannot visit a Top Burmese location without ordering this. It is the gold standard--fermented tea leaves mixed with crunchy peanuts, toasted sesame, fried garlic, and fresh lime. It's a texture and flavor explosion that is unlike anything else in Southeast Asian cuisine. The Golden Samosas: These are a "super duper" must-order. They are flaky, perfectly spiced, and served with a house-made sauce that provides the perfect tangy kick. If you want something even more comforting, their Samosa Soup is the ultimate rainy-day cure. Standout Mains: The Coconut Noodle Soup (Khao Soi) is incredibly rich and aromatic, with just the right amount of creaminess. For a more savory, hearty option, the Beef Curry with Pan-Toasted Paratha is spectacular--the beef is fork-tender and the paratha is buttery and crisp. The Service: The "Ambassador" name is fitting because the staff truly acts as ambassadors for their culture. They are incredibly patient in explaining the menu to newcomers and make excellent recommendations based on your spice tolerance. Atmosphere: The interior is beautifully designed--vibrant, warm, and upscale without being stuffy. It feels like a "mini-vacation" right in the heart of Hillsboro. Pro Tip: This location is incredibly vegan-friendly (about 70% of the menu can be made plant-based!), so it's the perfect spot for a group with diverse dietary needs. Don't leave without trying the Burma Blue cocktail--it's as beautiful as it is delicious!

We ordered the green tea leaf salad, the turmeric fries, the chicken curry with paratha, the all-star okra curry, the coconut noodle soup, and the kheema paratha. I also tried the grass jelly drink. I can't choose my top favorite among everything that we tried. The green tea salad was very unique and I would never have ordered it myself. Now, I'm a fan. The turmeric fries were so delicious too! The chicken curry with the paratha was very Desi and excellent tasting. The okra had a homemade feel to it. I would've liked a side of paratha with it, rather than rice. The kheema paratha was excellent. The coconut noodle soup was like a nice warming/satisfying coconut curry with noodles. The grass jelly was interesting and I know that most of the jelly was left in the can, so while it is nice tasting, I wouldn't recommend drinking it in a can. The Hillsboro location is a little small but this restaurant and the server helping out are both an absolute delight and I highly recommend coming here!!

The tables were clean and well kept, and the use of "half umbrellas" against the side of a building was a thoughtful touch. We were seated right away, and our drink orders taken right away. Our server did an excellent job, although he apologized for not coming back in time to bring me another Black Butte Porter (which I didn't plan to refill, anyway; even though it was excellent on tap). We placed an order for the "Bavarian Pretzel" appetizer, which was advertised to have a "mustard sauce" with it, and we also paid extra for their "Queso Cheese Dip". The bread itself was quite delicious, but the mustard sauce was just honey mustard salad dressing (disappointing), and the cheese appeared to be melted processed pepper jack cheese. The cheese dip was good with the bread, but we had a lot of dip leftover after the 3 pieces of bread. For a main course, I went with the Spicy Jalapeno Burger, but opted for Crispy Chicken, instead of a hamburger patty. The burger was massive, and consisted of multiple crispy chicken tenders, instead of one large chicken patty -- which is all good, but did make it tricky to eat, as the multiple pieces wanted to slide around. It was very good, but I think I would try the actual burger next time. I chose French fries for my side, and was disappointed that they were "battered" fries, which are not my favorite. The portion was also a little on the skimpy side. I would definitely come back again, even if there are a few small things that keep me from giving top marks.
