Don't expect restaurant quality that's for sure, but it did its job and I was satisfied with the flavor and the price. There was plenty of grab and go options as well. The staff were excellent and welcoming. There was plenty of seats and tables available.

This time around, my mother is a patient at OHSU, and all the different foods we tried was not the best. It's a bummer. OHSU is a prime hospital this should never be ok. OHSU also has a more "fancy" cafe on the 9th floor which was closed the 2 times we went to check it out. They close at 2pm which is lame. They have better food I'm assuming. It was a let down for now, hopefully the food court people can hire and cook better quality food like before. The lobster mac and cheese and their chili was the most decent thing we tried. My mother ordered the meatloaf and some other pork dish from the hospital room menu and liked it, there was a steak dish she ordered that she sent back.

I had the steak and chimichurri sandwich and it was amazing. The fries were great, and I also loved their candy selection. The only downside for me was that all of the cupcakes are gluten free, so they were a bit dry and dense compared to regular cupcakes. That said, I will definitely come back every time I visit Portland. It's a fun, comforting spot with lots of good options.

With the plethora of eats to choose from, a friendly/efficient staff and service, and in or outdoor seating available, Elephants Delicatessen is a spot that's a must visit when you're in this fun city! There are multiple counters for different types of food. There's a sandwich/soup station, a pizza station, a hot foods station (for burgers & specialties), a cold deli station for cold salads/sides, and a bar/barista inside for adult beverages or coffee. Additionally, there's an area to purchase bottled wine and jams/jellies. Grab whatever items you order and pay at the register. If you order from a station, bring your ticket with you as that's where you get charged. Pretty much any type of deli flavor you're looking for, you can find it here. Some of my favorites involve the following: -Teriyaki Chicken Wings -Curried Chickpea Salad -Reuben Sandwich -Tomato Bisque -Corn & Crab Chowder -Broccoli Salad -Turkey and Avocado Sandwich -Pizza Slices (All of them!) I'm sure there's plenty of items I'm missing but those are the ones that stood out to me since I've eaten them multiple times. The staff is very helpful and move efficiently with all the orders flying around. As for seating, there's plenty of seating indoors or you can sit on the patio area outside. Also kid friendly too if you've got the little ones with you. One of Portland's finest eating spots!

I have been wanting to come here for years. Yes years. In my family, we don't really go to brunch…read moreor even breakfast too often. You can tell from my yelp reviews, I don't really have a lot of breakfast reviews. But I had this saved as a must try and it is in NE and not far from our place. So this morning when hubs said our pregnant daughter was coming over for breakfast I jumped at the chance to suggest this spot. In case you don't read the rest of my review, I wanted to comment that the service was really great here and I am pretty sure the nice guy in the front was the owner, but I could be wrong. There was another guy working as well when two of us arrived and the rest were parking and he told us which table would be ours but that we should wait and all order together. But he was really great because when he saw the place start to get busy he reminded us of our table in the corner, kinda letting us know so it wouldn't get snatched. So that earned points in book. The menu is brunchy in that it is a prix fix breakfast menu for $28.50 and there are 3 columns with 4-5 choices. Drinks, savory and sweet items. Boozy drinks are about $10-15 extra. There is also drinking chocolate, teas, coffee or juice. (Orange and grapefruit). The girls said the orange juice was really good. But I can't drink citrus and drinking chocolate would've been too heavy for me, so I opted for coffee. This is the only column that I could take or leave. Savory - all of us I think had something different and not one item was bad. I opted for the popcorn chicken and cheesy grits and it came with a poached egg that had a beautiful gooey egg yolk in the middle. The chicken was crispy and cooked to a crispy perfection on the outside but tender and juicy on the inside. The grits were so yummy and creamy as well. *chefs kiss* My hubs ordered the buttermilk biscuits with chorizo gravy and that was also a stellar choice. I had a bite and the biscuits were crisp on the outside and the gravy with the chorizo had such good flavor. Sweet - I had the Tres Leches French toast and once again, it was perfectly crisp on the outside and cooked to perfection on the inside with what I assume was a tres leches condensed milk concoction. It came with some berries and cream drizzled around it was perfect. My hubs had the graham cracker waffles and I am going to say it again, crispy and golden on the outside and cooked perfectly. I didn't eat any of the other items that everyone else ordered, like the baked egg and potatoes or the crepes, so I cannot comment on them, but I did take photos to share. But there are so many photos already I doubt mine offer anything new. I'm not usually a breakfast or brunch person but this was really good. 10/10 delicios on every single item and this place gets 6 stars out of 5.

Commons should take a hint from the gallons of Tabasco sauce that gets consumed there everyday:…read moretheir food is bland! Their simple staples, like pasta with sauce, beans and rice, and salad bar are bland as can be; on the other hand, their entrees and soups are generally over-flavored (mostly with pepper), enough to make you a little queasy trying to figure out what's in there. They also seem to enjoy cramming mock meat into every dish imaginable. It ranges from logical (tofu in a Chinese dish) to bizarre (tofu in Indian food, the cuisine I count on to be pretty soy-free). On the plus side, the grill will make a wide variety of things to order: ie, only a basic quesadilla is listed on their menu, but they'll put anything they have on hand in there for you, like chicken strips, tomatoes, spinach, onions, french fries, etc. They also make a pretty good over-easy egg. If you, for some reason, must eat here, try the macaroni and cheese (every Monday night, hopefully still the schedule this year), beans and rice with a generous sprinkling of the hot sauce of your choice, or customizing something at the grill. I also hear that the hot turkey sandwich (lunch only) is also excellent. I'd avoid the soups, most of the nightly specials, and anything over-represented on the Scrounge table (a place to put food that you don't want to eat, so that people without a board plan can eat for free). I don't know if this is good or bad but: I rely on them for food during most of the academic year. Last year, I lost over 10 pounds between September and May. I was not trying to lose weight. I was just eating here.

I saw this Chinese buffet called Super King Buffet. I've been to other "King Buffets", but this I think I like a common name, so I don't think they're connected. With a buffet everybody gets what they want and keep them all happy, so I'm happy. Plenty of parking here and it wasn't too had to find. We get seated fine and drinks orders taken. This look like a little bigger buffet than some we've been to. Lot of different seafood options for dinner. They even have crawdads. Too much work for too little meat in my opinion, but that's just me. Inside is decently clean and the buffet lines are not all messed up by rude customers like I've seen other places. We all got our fill and were in and out in less than an hour. Price was around $25 per person including a soft drink and a little tip.

The baked oatmeal was the best oatmeal I have ever had. The coffee was good too. I've been to this location a few times and will continue to revisit in the future.
