Fantastic food and Service- we came in to a nearly empty restaurant and thought that it wouldn't be great since it was so empty. But the service was great- our waitress was attentive and funny. The portions were huge too! Much bigger than we were expecting considering the prices, which were on the low side. $30 for two dinners w/ drinks and an appetizer- not too shabby. Overall we were very happy with coming here and will return whenever we can! read more

We needed a place to eat before going to a birthday party and had never been here before. It was a great experience. Sat in bar to eat and we were there long enough to hear the band start playing. The waitress was very nice and food was delicious and you could actually taste the alcohol in the drinks. We will be back. And liked that they have live music on Friday and Saturday. read more

My friend took me here New Years day for some good old breakfast food. I ordered the biscuits & gravy and it was excellent! He ordered an omelet that had everything in it, I had to steal a few bites of it, it was so good! The waitress was really friendly too, her happy attitude and jokes made up for her lack of service. We had to ask for hot sauce, ketchup and lemons for my water a couple times. Over all I will definitely be returning, it's wonderful when you find a local diner that's been apart of the community for so long! read more

I have to stay, I was pleasantly surprised by this place. It looks like a place where you would see a large variety of the weekday retirees stopping in for bland food, or to hang out in the karaoke lounge that is in the back. HOWEVER. I took my husband, and my 3 children, all under 10, on a weekday evening and not only was the service superb (Thank you Jackie), but the food was fresh, not greasy, and they were willing to give us whatever we wanted, even if it wasn't on the menu. My kids left full, with a box of leftovers, and we spent about $50 for 5 of us. I've gone back for breakfast as well, and the cost doesn't hit the wallet hard, and the food is fast, with great service and very edible food. The best thing is-it's less than 5 minutes from our house and we don't have to drive to other parts of Portland for decent pancakes and food cooked perfectly. read more

Service was friendly and fast! The environment is welcoming and comfortable. The food was fresh and tasted good, the prices are and affordable as well. read more

Went there Saturday morning,was there early,very kind fast service,coffee was great and was always full.the omelets we wife/me had were very tasty with great hash brown and toast,we will be back read more

*Breakfast Review* Coffee was really good, waitress in yoga pants, decent body, but not attire for work, was inattentive. I specifically asked if the gravy was made in house, didn't think to ask about the biscuits...they were from frozen. Nasty. Couldn't eat it. Seems silly to make gravy and waste it on frozen garbage. If she was a good waitress she would have said the biscuits were not made in house after my query. Sad. I would have just ordered something different had I known. She never came to the table in a reasonable time for me to order something different, I had to call her over after about 10 minutes of her behind the alcove. My beau had an omelet that he loved. We will return, and I'll order something different. Perhaps gravy over hash browns. The gravy was good. read more

This review is for breakfast only. Service was fast and friendly. The waiter kept our coffee cup full with hot fresh coffee. Our order arrived quickly. It opens at 6:00am so the day isn't half over after breakfast. Our eggs were ordered over easy and were delivered just that way. The ham I had and the sausage my wife had were cooked just right. The only reason 5 stars wasn't given is that the hash browns and eggs were a little greasier than we cared for. read more

Great food and like the other review I mostly eat the country fried steak.... Delicious. Service is great not the quickest but the hospitality more then makes up for this. The restaurant dinning area has recently been remodeled, only draw back here is they no longer have any booths, it is all table and chair seating. read more

Great place! Good food, good service, fair prices! I've loved everything we've ever tried here. And, the wait staff are VERY nice and give good service. My only note to management would be, read the ingredient labels for the things you are putting on the table, like ketchup, etc. Please, don't buy the products with High Fructose Corn Syrup when there are better products with same or cheaper prices!!! Especially pointing out the ketchup!!! Hint, hint. read more

This place is great! The prices are comparable to other diners. $11 for handmade country fried steak with 2 eggs and home fries. My mother had an omelet that was loaded with goods. Delicious and fresh tasting. The chicken fried steak tasted like none other, the best I have ever had. Cute area of Gresham. The eggs are made true to request. Big one for me. I recommend this place for anyone whose hungry for good homemade meals. Wish I had room for pie. Plenty of room in this establishment for larger parties and also has a bar in the back. Very clean looking and organized. Polite and seemed to have a great base of regulars. I will be coming back. read more

M & M Restaurant & Lounge - American Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

Ordered the special and it sure wasn't, Ham & bone special, came with little corn asked for baked potato & soup and small piece of garlic bread...$11.00 The Soup was tasty, all six spoon fulls of it. The baked potato was cooked little more would have been better. Caned corn,The garlic bread had been done for a long time, maybe the day before. The Ham, now that was the sad part, it had been done for a long long time & left under a warming lamp or something cause it was tough, tough like shoe leather. How any respectable cook could serve this was hard to believe. I should have sent it back and left but, I was hungry and it was there. I put in the extra chews and wash it down with a beer. it looks like from the other reviews the breakfast might be be better but, do know this, I won't order dinner there again... read more

The M&M was the scene of a tragic triple murder-suicide a few years back. As a loyal hometown girl, I was determined to continue dining there because I believe in supporting local businesses and have returned a few times but prefer the bar to the restaurant. As several reviewers have mentioned, the M&M has a huge dance floor and on the weekends features a variety of area bands. A recent remodel of the restaurant portion of M&M is disappointing, gone are the booths and atmosphere that gave it a vintage diner feel. Now it's wooden tables and chairs on a veneer floor. Prices are high, portions are small, menu options are fairly limited (especially for lunch or dinner), the coffee is weak and the menu takes an eternity to arrive at your table (as does the food once you've ordered no matter if there are 3 people in the restaurant or 20). Last weekend my husband, stepson and I went to the M&M for breakfast and the place was slammed, although most people seemed to be finishing up their meals which seemed promising. We needed a larger table and waited several minutes for one to open up. A server poured me a cup of coffee while I waited at a table for two in the center of the restaurant; I ordered another for my husband, who was making his donation to the Oregon lottery in the lounge, and the server said she'd be back once we moved to a larger table. I moved to a larger table, the server who brought me coffee said she'd be with me shortly...and then never showed up. The table behind us was annoyed that they hadn't receieved their bill, and somehow managed to flag down the other server, and I tagged her and asked her for menus. The menus arrived, a promise of ice water was never fullfilled, nor did anyone ever come to take our order. Husband, not so happy, and our kidlet groaned that "this place always takes too long". We decided to bail. I left $2 on the table for the coffee I never got a chance to drink and we went to McDonalds for breakfast. I don't think we'll be back. Am wondering if they should've scrapped the extensive remodel -- or at the very least taken it in another direction -- and beefed up their menu and perhaps hired an extra server or two to work during peak times such as weekend breakfast. The restaurant portion of the M&M has adequate seating for all body types. Seating in the bar area is crowded. The chairs swivel and have arms but are adequate for those of us with ample bottoms (althought they are a bit low to the ground) read more

Went there on a Saturday night for an early dinner. Service was fast and friendly and I ordered the 10 oz steak dinner which was fantastic. I know a good steak and it beats the two popular steak restaurants in Gresham. It was very tender and perfectly done. Sides were great too. Everything was super fresh and prices were very reasonable. read more

Best corn beef hash!! It was delicious!! We were in town for family, and happened to drive by and take a chance... It was well worth it. Will definitely eat here the next time we are in town!! read more

Excellent service and food. I've never had a bad meal there and the servers are amazing. This is a family owned and operated business and they are doing a very very good job. read more

Service was just ok. Food was meh. Corn beef hash with poached eggs was good. The bone in ham was dry and freezer burnt. The country fried potatoes tasted of oil. Won't be returning. read more

I haven't been here for years.my hubby and I decided to come in the bar for dinner and a drink on a Monday night.i felt very welcomed when I walked in by the bar tender.drinks where good.i enjoyed the music that we playing and the atmosphere. But I guess you can't have it all.my food was a little cold.besides that it a a thumbs up. read more

Love their hash and poached egg breakfast! I have been going here for years. They did a remodel and the interior looks awesome. It's on Main in old downtown Gresham so we can stroll the shops when we're done. read more

M & M Restaurant & Lounge - Inside M&M - American Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

Went to the M&M a couple weeks ago on a Friday night. We came to see The Mike Branch Band. The band was great. We really enjoyed the space. Huge bar area. Great dance floor. Great food, nice staff and very reasonable prices. We will be back for sure. read more

Michael and the crew are amazing. Food was excellent and service was great. We love this place so much. We will keep coming back. We drove all the way from aloha after getting back in town from trucking just to have their amazing service and food. read more

Have been here quite a few times and although it is one of those typical 'local' places, the food is pretty decent and pretty good biscuits and gravy! Aside from who I believe is the owners son, who is great btw, the other typical bar staff service typically leaves a little to be desired. As I said, one of those places if you aren't a 'regular,' you are definitely not treated in the same manner, which I typically have zero tolerance for. But, if you are into good food and drink, watching the band, or playing video crack, and not relying on bar service, it is a decent option. read more

While I'm sure their other menu items are great too I've only had the chicken fried steak. We drive out to the M & M at least once a month for their fantastic chicken fried steak and country potatoes. They are hand breaded and fried on the griddle (not deep fried) beef patties with delicious sausage gravy and the potatoes are red potatoes fried with onions. Eggs are always done to order and the cooks gets the food out quickly even when they are busy. The portions are huge and prices reasonable. My only complaint is that sometimes the service can be slow. Friendly, but slow. (slow to take order, slow to bring bill or take out box) read more

Yum yum! Been wondering what this place was since I moved to Gresham a few months back. I don't believe there is any signage. On a walk downtown looking for dinner we happened upon the M&M and decided to go for it. My son was happy that breakfast was served all day. What the heck, a greasy spoon never killed anyone. M&M isn't a greasy spoon but more of Americana food. My son had a cheese omelet with pancakes (and a mug of hot cocoa). No complaints from him - he scarfed it all down (although he couldn't finish all of his food). I ordered the reuben club sandwich but substituted the meat with a veggie burger. Really good!! I have a good appetite but finished only half my sandwich. It was two veggie burgers piled high with sauerkraut and the works. BURP. Nice wait staff. She was friendly and reminded me of Wendy O. Williams. I'm looking forward to hitting this place again sometime soon! ...and I'm looking forward to finishing the rest of my yummy sandwich tomorrow! read more

Breakfast was just ordinary and lack luster. I could have made better French toast at home, bacon was cold and crispy. The breakfast menu is really small and basic. There was only one person serving (on a holiday) so she was busy and slow. Honestly Shari's would have been better. I won't be going back. read more

Two stars because the food is good. The service was horrible. Waitress didn't even say thank you and we had to get up from our table to pay. She left several dirty dishes on our table as well and was to busy shaking her ass to the songs on the radio to ask my boyfriend if her wanted another drink! I still tipped because it's rude not to, but service was not worth the tip! This bar needs to hire better, friendlier bartenders! Also she only had a few customers so her lack of service wasn't justified. read more

Don't ever come here. I came here at night with a group of friends and every single on of us got our phones stolen and our credit cards stolen. M&M was not helpful at all with finding them, in fact they were very rude and even got violent. read more

People tend to think of the M&M as a breakfast place, but all of their food is good. Seriously, all of it. Their dinner is great if you're looking for some homestyle cooking. I have to go all the way out to gresham to get a fresh cooked turkey sandwhich! Crazy, but worth it. read more

Great breakfast stop; standards done perfectly. They've gone to a Papa Hyden's floor plan, which is why I don't give 5 stars. I prefer booths. Service good, food good. Parking can be tricky if you are a late breakfast type. read more

I'd like to give a shout out to The M&M Restaurant and Lounge, especially Andrea. Becky and I had our wedding reception/party there last night (12/6/15), and it was a great time! The place was clean and warm, the food was awesome, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Andrea went the extra mile to make our families, friends and guests very welcome. Thanks again!!! read more

Slow unnattentive service in the restaurant and the bar. Food is bland. Decor is out of date and tacky. Hopefully someone will take over this space and try something new. read more

Normally great food and service, but not yesterday. Have favorites: Monty Crisco, Ruben, Open-faced Turkey or Roast Beef. But yesterday the cook decided to make a standard item his way and not follow the menu description customer are expecting. The Monty Crisco is clearly described as Turkey, Ham and SWISS cheese. He decided Cheddar& American are the cheeses to use. The waitress informed the cook, who's replied 'always makes it this way', then was 'Swiss is next to the turkey', which was a lie, my sandwich didn't have any Swiss. Was told would get a new Monty Crisco made, but never did, nor did I receive a discount on my bill for a bad sandwich. This is NOT HOW Monty Crisco should be made. I only eat them in select restaurant, M &M used to be one of the BEST places to get a Monty Crisco's, NOT anymore. If you can't trust the menu to be correct because the cook will make everything whichever way he chooses, why bother with a menu. The M &M used to be a 'special treat' going out to dinner, now it will be a long time before we go back again. read more

While visiting the Portland area from the East Coast, my wife and I went to M & M on a Thursday night. There weren't many people there, and the waitress told us they were mostly a breakfast and lunch spot. My wife ordered bacon-wrapped scallops, which she said were quite good (she wouldn't let me try one, but I'm not really a big fan of scallops anyway). I had the grilled pork chops. There were two chops, but one would have been plenty. We both ordered a baked potato for a side and they were fine, but the fresh green beans that were the other side were excellent. It was basically diner food, but cooked perfectly and best of all, not loaded with salt. I had bread pudding for dessert, which I hesitate to order because I find it is too sweet and heavy. M & M's version was just to my liking, Best of all from my perspective, it wasn't drowned in gloppy "whiskey" sauce. All in all, we were both very pleased with the food and service. Gresham 20 minutes from Portland, and the restaurant is located in the downtown area which has a nice small-town feel to it. read more
