    Tres Leches waffles
    jacob m.

    the Portland scramble was the perfect breakfast for me! Not too heavy. The tres leches had good flavor too. We also got a piece of tres leches cake for7 bucks so not too bad!

    Buttermilk Pancakes with a side of scrambled eggs
    Brooke H.

    I came here on a Saturday morning and was just in time before the rush. I was between a few different options and wish I'd gone with the Tres Leches waffle. The buttermilk pancakes were good, but nothing special. Based on the ratings for this place, I was expecting a little better. The fruit and whipped cream were good toppings, but the pancakes themselves were nothing spectacular. The scrambled eggs were good, but also nothing particularly special. The service was lacking, considering no one even asked to take our order until we'd been sitting over 30 minutes. I'm pretty sure we never got our water refilled, either. I may try to come back and try a different meal. Hopefully the tres leche waffles are better than the pancakes.

    Vegetarian Omelet. I asked for a side of avocado and sour cream. Was delicious.

    Indoor and outdoor seating. We chose outdoor as we had a dog with us. They're dog friendly which is a plus. Food was delicious and large portion sizes. I also ordered a coffee but wasn't a fan of the flavor. We were seated quickly and our service was great.

    Service was good! The server was friendly and attentive to our needs. Kept our drinks full! The food was delicious and they also have a lot of yummy baked goods to choose from! It also had a patio for outside seating on nice days.

    I had the French toast and it was amazing! My partner had the lumberjack with pancakes and it was delicious. Coffee was great! Not too busy on a Saturday morning. Lots of tables and friendly servers.

    Migas Eggs
    Liliana R.

    A must breakfast spot! The migas were different from what we are used to and they were insanely good! A full meal for a spontaneous day. Service was amazing, he hooked us up with a spicier hot salsa to enjoy!

    If you are going to put your name on it, clean it. if your mugs look like this soak them in bleach water or replace the nicked ones.

    Meh food, service, and atmosphere. Generally weird vibe but it is one of the few diners in this part of town.

    I'm here for work but I love coming out here to Portland because of the food! ugh! this place was so cute, a little hidden gem. The inside was small, but super cute and clean. The service was great and food was amazing. I got the "Stake and eggs" they allowed me to sub the potatoes for a side salad. My dish came out quick, we didn't wait long. Their jam was home made and perfect, wasn't toooo sweet and you can just tell it was fresh. You know the food is good when you aren't ever talking while eating. Amazing, i'd come here again!

    1/2 plate of Migas (eggs with tortilla strips & cheese).

    Food was amazing! This has become my favorite breakfast place even if I have to drive 20 miles to get here it's definitely worth it

It's a good French toast but doesn't have that much banana flavor outside of the caramelized bananas. It was good with the sauce and whipped cream though! Also got some sides (egg, potatoes, coleslaw not shown) which were average.

We decided on outdoor patio seating since the weather was nice & it was generally quieter outside. We were people watching for a bit and noticed that our fellow restaurant goers were waiting for quite a bit, but we weren't in a hurry, so it was fine. When our waiter eventually tended to us, he was incredibly friendly & apologetic, owning up to the delay being on him, but we were cool with it -poor guy was working a double shift. We started off with deep-fried okra, I ordered the fried chicken meal, & hubby ordered the burger. I got to pick the chicken pieces I wanted, so I went with 2 thighs, thinking they'd be smaller pieces, so I could maybe finish my meal. I opted for collard greens as well. The food came relatively quickly and was super-fresh. The fried okra bits were piping hot down to the last bite. They went well with the spicy aioli. We hung onto the aioli so hubby could dip his fries. My meal was so good. The chicken was incredibly tender and flavorful. The batter was just perfect and crisp. Mashed potatoes were smooth and creamy. Gravy was rich and well-seasoned. Collard greens were so tasty. The balance of textures was just perfection. I ended up having to pack up a piece of chicken because it was so much food, but I enjoyed every bite I was able to take of my meal. I appreciated their welcoming vibe & the beautiful pride balloon arch inside the restaurant. I appreciated the friendly service. I appreciated the thoughtfully and expertly made food. It was a perfect way to end my culinary experience for this Portland visit.

This place was packed on a Sunday morning and the inside was beautiful living up to the country vibes of the restaurant. Staff is super friendly and had really good recommendations. What we ordered: Cinnamon rolls(this reminded me of the old-school Entenmann's dessert had like a creamy custard in the inside of it, which was absolutely amazing. Came out nice and warm) Chicken waffles country, fried steak and eggs The country fried steak and eggs was 1 million out of 10 was the thickest piece of country fried steak I've ever had in my life and I'm not a big fan of country fried steak but this was a hit for me. She asked me if I wanted the white gravy or the brown gravy and asked her what was her recommendation. She said try both and I was glad that I listened to her. It was Rich. It was creamy. It was flavorful. Its homemade and it was huge. I would definitely recommend this place. If you wanna have breakfast I'm from California and I wish there were something like this.

Everything we ordered was gorgeous and whimsical in presentation, but of course that would mean little without the flavors to back it all up, which it had in spades. The Thai steak tartare tostadas were incredibly balanced, with brightness and herbaceous notes from the vegetables, herbs, and sauce, great punch from the Thai spices, richness from the tartare, and a nice snap and slight nuttiness from the tapioca crisps cradling everything underneath. The foie gras dumplings were simply divine. I expected them to be rich and dense, but they were like little pillows, with a savory filling and a perfect balance of smoked leek broth, crispy fried leeks, and a caramelized shallot jam that ended up being the surprise star of the dish for me. Then came the main event, the Duck Stack, which I can only describe as a McGriddle on steroids (in the best possible way!). Somehow it all worked beautifully, with the rich duck gravy, fluffy pancakes drenched in syrup, spiced onions, and a fried duck egg tying everything together in perfect harmony. It was one of those dishes that sounds wild on paper but is totally brilliant on the plate and in your mouth. Really fantastic meal from start to finish, and I'm already excited to come back to try more of the menu (and the happy hour!) on a future visit.

    I'm going to be thinking about those Foie Gras Dumplings for quite a long time…read more All items I tried last night at Canard were creative, flavorful, well presented and reasonably priced. The garlic fries were spicy in the best way, perfectly crisp, and served steaming hot. The Duck Stack (pancakes covered with duck gravy, onions, and a duck egg) sounded a bit odd to me (and probably many others). When I asked the server if it was good, they told me that people travel to the restaurant specifically for that dish. I'm glad I tried it. Again, very unique with a well balanced spice profile paired with the delicious undertones of a hot pancake. I know I would have never thought of that, doesn't sound like it should work, but....it worked! Service was great, atmosphere was a bit loud with a band playing next door, it was a bit overwhelming, plus a random dude walked into the restaurant and a server lit his joint for him as a courtesy(?)...stunk the place up for a few minutes, but as I thought about it, I decided that was about the most "Portland" thing I had seen all week on my trip :) I'll be going back for sure, I would love to taste through that entire menu. Did I mention the Foie Gras Dumplings? I never had anything like them in my life. That's a dish I would definitely travel back to Portland for.

We had the coffee (Extracto, love.), I had a really good hef and my mother a very well balanced Bellini that I was very pleasantly surprised with trying. From what I saw, the lunch sounds very good and I'd be more apt to recommend folks give that a shot if they happened to be going there too. I'm not sure if I'd recommend as a must go stop. Vibe wise, the ambience is overall really nice. I think having rolled flatware, even with just upgraded napkins, would better complete the aesthetic you initially see and feel. This would also connect with the price point of the food and quality of the beverages. As a fellow server, on that note I would expect more consistent stronger visual appearance standards with servers. (Sorry guys! But some of you looked great!) Overall, I'd definitely join a friend for coffee and lunch over there in the future. Just wouldn't be my top pick for a celebratory brunch or intimate dinner with a date or friends and fam.

Between the genuinely friendly hospitality and the flavor combinations, this spot hits it out of the park and is a must for sandwich lovers. Griddled Mortadella (5/5): An incredibly delicious sandwich that perfectly balances rich, salty, and savory flavors. It comes loaded with a generous portion of grilled mortadella and melted provolone cheese, perfectly moistened with a tangy mustard aioli. The fresh lettuce and bell peppers added a satisfying crunch to every bite. Chefwich - K-Town Steak Sandwich (5/5): A limited-time creation packed into a banh mi roll. It had a generous portion of perfectly tender and sweet bulgogi steak that pairs with their melted jack cheese. The gochujang mayo sauce had a subtle and sweet heat, while the fresh kimchi added crunch and slight acidity to balance the rich meat. Elote Tater Tots (5/5): Definitely a creative side dish. The tots were perfectly fried and topped elote style with cotija cheese, pairing well with the smoky chipotle mayo on the side. Logistics Tip: Street parking is surprisingly easy to find in the surrounding area, even on a busy weekend evening.
