(I wonder if all the positive reviews are by local twenty- somethings, six of whom formed a very loud and noisy coffee clatch.) The ambiance is "tired diner." The service prompt, cordial, but you must go up to the counter to order your food. You must get your own napkins, bus your own table. I ordered the "northern Thai curry" dish. Chicken thigh cold, flavorless. The curry sauce owed any spice to the sliced Bermuda onion. No curry evident. The noodles matched the chicken for temperature (lukewarm) and flavor (none). So "Wakie Wakie" a disappointment. Nopey, Nopey.

I ordered the Açaí Origins bowl and a Thai iced tea, and split an order of the Crispy Crisp (fried potatoes) with my friend. Everything was delicious. The potatoes were perfectly crispy and came with a flavorful garlic mayo. The açaí bowl was rich with generous toppings of fresh fruit and granola that added a nice crunch. The portions were very generous too. We'll definitely be back!

The service was great. Very attentive and efficient. The food was as great. My party had a variety of items, from the beet & goat cheese salad, deviled eggs, pancetta and Brussels sprouts, cheeseburger, and BLT with Lobster. Everything was high quality and delicious. The fries which came on the side of the burgers and sandwiches were also excellent. The restaurant has a nice outdoor space but the weather was a little rainy the day we went so we didn't sit outside. I do suggest they add more barriers and greenery/plants to separate the beautiful outdoor seating space from the parking lot across the way.

The food is fine. It is standard diner fare. But my meat breakfast burrito itself was roughly $21. They charge $2 to put the scramble in a flour tortilla. The mimosa I had was of poor quality and was $11. My husband just did the breakfast tacos and a coffee. Our bill was over $60. Nothing was bad, but it's just far too expensive for the quality of the food. We can and have had the same meal of the same quality for $40 down the road at Stacks. It's a shame that some of the long term staples of the Portland area are pricing out the locals but until prices come down, can't really recommend it here

Today, we indulged in blueberry muffins and fruit parfaits (both of which the kids devoured and I personally enjoyed as well), a ham and cheddar breakfast crepe (absolutely amazing!!!), and avocado toast (my wife, who has celiac, was quite disappointed in aside from the onions) for food. To drink, my kids were able to get juice boxes (apple and fruit punch). I got the iced dulce de leche latte, which was pretty good though had a little bit of a different flavor that took some getting used to. My wife got the Maine maple latte, which she said was really good. Being dedicated gluten free, they definitely have some challenges, especially with baked goods, that most places don't have to deal with, so I'm willing to cut some slack here. All in all, there's definitely some gems here but other things could use a little work. We'll definitely go back but maybe not our first choice to go out of the way for.

Maybe it was the coffee, maybe it was the addition of sugar free vanilla, but I didn't drink it. The ceilings are extremely high. They most definitely should have some noise-dampening panels or something to make it a bit quieter in there. There was a family there when I went that was treating this small coffee shop as a daycare, which made my experience even more disappointing. The screams were echoing throughout the cafe, and I ended up sitting outside for peace and fresh air. The outside seating area is nice. Overall, not a great first experience for me, but maybe their food is better than the coffee?

The food was so flavorful, quickly prepared, and very creative with its presentation. Local sourcing and very high-quality ingredients. The service was on point, the ambiance was warm and relaxing, and the value was more than reasonable. The same meal in Portland would have easily cost forty percent more. I wish I had taken pictures of the meal, but I was tired and hungry and just forgot. My burger and fries were spot on. The fries stayed crispy from the beginning to the end. The burger meat was fresh and very tasty. The dessert was next level, and I did get a picture before eating it, lol. Whether you stay at the hotel or not, City Farmhouse is always an excellent choice.

Salt Yard was okay overall, but probably a 3/5 for me…read more It's attached to a hotel and I was a little surprised that there wasn't table service. You order at the counter and they bring your food out to you. The line can be pretty long. That said, everyone working there was really friendly and the space was very clean and cute. I ordered the hash and eggs. My eggs came out overcooked, and they were very nice about replacing them, but when the new eggs came out they were kind of just slopped onto a plate. For the price, I expected a little more in both the food and overall experience. BUT...the Salt Yard iced latte was friggin amazing. Easily the highlight and I would absolutely come back for that. Not terrible by any means, just a little overpriced for what you get.

My kids enjoy the things they get pretty much everywhere - pancakes, eggs, grilled cheese, chicken fingers, fries. Service is friendly and fairly quick. There are a couple things on the menu that I've been especially impressed with and they feel sort of hidden since pancakes are given such primacy on the menu and signage. The fried filet of sole is delicious. The fish is fresh, well seasoned, and perfectly cooked. Even my son loves it! The fried chicken is incredible - perhaps the best in the area. Perfectly cooked, tender, and juicy. The coating is flavorful and crunchy without eclipsing the meat. I have had it a couple times as the chicken and waffle combo and it does not disappoint. However, today it was served with honey drizzled all over and I did not like that. It made it too sweet and too messy. Syrup would have been better, and I'd rather have dressed it myself. So I'd order it without the honey. I feel like it wasn't served to me like that previously. Weird. There are some good omelets on the menu but they're three egg omelets. My tummy just isn't big enough for three eggs, I'm afraid. So I tend to avoid getting the omelets.

Won't be back.
