I come here all the time! The full mess is my favorite dish but I also love the nacho fries. The service is always amazing and all the servers are really nice. I've brought so many people here to try the restaurant and everyone has loved it even if they're not vegan/vegetarian. It's just so good!! It's a popular place so I recommend coming early or going on a weekday if you can so you don't have to wait long for a table. read more

Vegan approved! We sat outside and parked on the street. They do have indoor seating fyi. The waiters bring you a carafe of water and take your order when you're ready. It's def a chill spot with great brunch options. There are a lot of vegan choices which is something that is much appreciated. read more

Really good breakfast with mostly vegan and vegetarian options (yay!). I got the blue plate with eggs, vegan sausage and no biscuit and gravy but substitutes toast and jam. The hashbrowns were my favorite! Excellent combination of crispy and soft and great flavor, esp with some chulula. The eggs were wonderfully fluffy and the vegan sausage patty had something unique about it, which I think was anise seed (?). Whatever it was, I loved it! I'm kind of a jam freak and the jam wasn't my favorite. I think it was strawberry but nothing really special about it, tbh. All of the menu items were really unique and one item was a veggie version of the Taco Bell crunch wrap supreme, so if you like that you should try this one! The restaurant is small and cute with inside and outside options and they don't require vaccination to sit inside. I really liked the hand chair and got to sit in it lol. It was really supportive. Our server was a nice guy named Wendell who was AWESOME! Super sweet and friendly and he had excellent timing with taking the orders, checking in and payment. He even offered to separate out groups checks which was so helpful. read more

Absolutely delicious!!! Got the Full Mess and boy was I happy with my choice. The biscuit was luxurious, as good as any I've ever had. It all went together beautifully. Service was very nice and the vibe was very pleasant. Sadly we don't live in the area and were just visiting. I wish we had something this good where I live. read more

Off the griddle. Above the mean. Beyond the basic. Before the lunch. Call it brunch. Call it breakfast for early dinner. You just better call it before they close at 3. You have to check out this place for breakfast. Their waffles are fantastic. You can get yours with syrup, get yours with dressing, get yours with mushroom and cheddar stuffed, or berries and whipped cream on top, or basic banana and more. All vegan all the time, and yet for those who are vegan challenged, you can get dairy cheese or fresh egg substitutes. It's fun for the whole family. Take grandma. If you love tempeh, get the bacon. You love hash-browns? Honey, that is my weak spot, and they are miraculously very good. That's hard to do. I expected a dry waffle. No syrup. Just some dressing. And wow, moist is not a word I like to use often, but there it is. Great outdoor seating. Great indoor seating. Just get your great seat over there and have some good food, fresh off the griddle. P.S. I took a nibble of their biscuit and gravy. I'm not a big fan of B&G but I know good when I have it. The biscuit was tasty and not too dense. The gravy? Have grandma's instead, ok? That came off a frying pan and it could've stayed. read more

I'm not vegan but my roommates introduced me to amazing vegan options while living in NYC so I don't stick my nose at it. Some of these places are really good and I will even say better than their non vegan counterparts. This is one of those places. I really enjoy the breakfast wrap supreme with fries. I need to try other options but for now I'm stuck on that. Get some zesty ranch for the fries. read more

Plenty of food to fill me up on a cold morning, but as vegan breakfasts go, this was pretty underwhelming. Everything (from vegan eggs to vegan sausage) sort of came across in the same basic taste and texture. Just not a very diverse or sumptuous menu. The staff was very friendly and attentive, however. read more

Good food, good prices and leave feeling good because I ate healthy. No better place to cure your hang over with a little hair of the dog and some delicious vegan breakfast. read more

Unfortunately they're so frequently under staffed that the wait staff is rude and over worked. After the third time of a waiter here being flustered to the point of being flat out rude it's just not really worth it. This is the second time staff has said "there's only 2 of us" so I'm not sure if it's the owners or the staff... But if you want to enjoy your day don't come here. :) There's plenty of vegan places to eat. You can skip this one. read more

My cousin and I came here for breakfast during a day trip to Portland, I, myself am vegan, she is not and she was genuinely impressed with the food she ordered (she got the chicken and waffles) I got the blue plate. She was so happy with her order that she was raving about it all day, and then proceeded to tell everyone about it when we got back to Seattle. The blue plate was delicious, just very savory, I think next time I will also go with what she ordered. One bite had me hooked. The food is SPECTACULAR and the employees make your experience even better. 10/10 read more

This place was truly disappointing. We tried the Chikn and waffle, mushroom melt waffle, and the blue plate with tofu scramble. The waffles were bland and soft. The vegan "meats" left much to be desired. Honestly just not seasoned well overall. Great and friendly service. Lots of gluten free options if needed. read more

Off The Griddle - Blue plate (bottom), chick n waffle (right center), mushroom waffle with eggs (top) - Vegan Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The staff was very friendly and responsive. The waiter immediately greeted us and took our order while miraculously managing to wait all the other tables and check on other patrons. I personally am not a fan of "fake meat", I'd rather have no meat than "fake meat", so I consulted the waiter about this prior to ordering a chorizo burrito. He mentioned they could use eggs instead of the tofu, which I opted to do even though I do generally like tofu because I felt that tofu plus vegan chorizo might be too much of a stretch for me. I will say, this was actually the first vegan place I've liked! Another plus is that they have two bathrooms for a restaurant this size, though the one I used was not handicap accessible. read more

First breakfast stop; we couldn't ask for better! You know I gotta go with classic B&G anytime I can! First off, excellent customer service, super friendly & the dining experience was fantastic! We got: -Biscuits & Gravy -Side of Seitan -Mushroom Melt Waffle - yes, you read that correctly. We've never had anything like this; it WAS AMAZING!! -& A rice crispy treat to go! Yum! 100% recommend Off the Griddle COVID Notes -Indoor & Outdoor seating is available. -Social distance & masks were requested. Staff wore masks. -Customer service was delightful, safe, and helpful -Ordering was effortless & smooth -No issues at all. Thank you, Off the Griddle, for the delicious Vegan Options! read more

Whoa... totally worth the wait. I came here on a Sunday with my cousin and my 2 kids. We waited 1 hr but seriously worth the wait. Everyone there from the hostess and waiter were incredibly friendly and helpful. I was worried my kids would get restless but they didn't, the atmosphere was comfortable and warm. After ordering a blue plate, full mess, kids waffle and biscuit the waiter told us it would take 30 minutes (still worth the wait). Our drinks came out quickly (Bloody Mary and a mimosa) very tasty. I definitely recommend, I dreamt of this place the very next day! read more

This place honestly rules. I got the full mess and everything was cooked perfectly and had great flavors. The service here is also fantastic. Not only were we checked on consistently but the servers are just overall super nice. They have a nice outdoor seating area that is covered (which was great because it was raining when I went this weekend) and a moderately sized indoor area. If you're in the area and want a great eating experience this is the play. read more

Been wanting to come here and was met with such great servers from the beginning. They were attentive to our preferred seating and checked up on us to make sure food tasted great. I ordered the chorizo burrito and loved every bite of it! I will say, the fries were over seasoned, a tad bit too salty, but still delicious. They have some of the best GF/Vegan options I've been to yet. read more

This spot was recommended to me by the front desk at Kex Hotel and Im so glad it was! Its hard to find spots that are both GF and Vegan and still be tasty and not overly processed. Michelle was patient with me as she helped me choose 2 plates.. I couldn't make up my mind so I just got them both! The breakfast burrito as a hash and the chicken & waffles with mushroom gravy. They were both so good! I'll bring my friends next time I come into town for a visit!! read more

This place is super cute, inside and out! The staff were also really chill and friendly; not being a local, we got some great travel advice from our server, I really liked her! The food was delicious! We got everything vegan. We ordered the blue plate, and the jackfruit sandwich. The fries were super thin, soft but crunchy, with tasty seasoning. The pickled jackfruit sandwich was delicious, especially with the aioli on it. The blue plate had a variety of great flavors that really complimented each other! Next time I'm in Portland, I would love to return here for breakfast. read more

So venturing around looking for a new spot to eat and me and the hubs find off the griddle. To start the parking situation is not the greatest. There's a few spots out front and street parking on the next street over, but there's other businesses near so all are shared. Side note: This comes off as a part of Portland that either is up and coming or down and going. Just be mindful, take your valuables out your car, etc. When you walk up there's a pick-up window outdoors if you're doing to-go. Benches with heaters out front to eat outside. There's limited seating inside as well. The restaurant is decorated with some cool artwork that looks like you can purchase. There's plenty on the menu. I went for the blue plate. OTG sausage, hash browns, scrambled eggs and gluten free biscuit & gravy. The food maybe 2 stars? The waiter was quick and nice he bumps this up to a 3. The hash browns was your ordinary hash, nothing special. The "sausage" I wasn't a fan of the flavor nor texture. The eggs were good, especially with the hot sauce on the table. The gluten free biscuit was sooo chewy :( the biscuit definitely brought the entire dish down. I know taking out gluten changes the textures sometimes, but never had an gluten free item like this. The recipe def. Needs to be tweaked a bit. Overall, a cool spot to try especially if you have dietary preferences/restrictions. I don't think I'd return, but glad I tried them out once. read more

It's been well over 4 years since I've eaten here so I completely forgot what it was all about; glad I came back! I think the last time I was here they didn't serve eggs or dairy but they do now. I like that it's an option b/c sometimes you want to bring someone here who is not quite as enthusiastic about vegan food but you still want to eat here with them! That said, the tofu scram is really good & it's ok if you don't eat eggs for one bfast! Lots of different classic brunch options to choose from! Our table of 4 enjoyed everything we ordered & the staff were very attentive. Haven't tried any of the lunch options but we'll def be back! read more

I've been here twice while in the Portland area. The first time I found through Yelp, the second was because I enjoyed it so much the first time! With a nut allergy and being vegan, finding good food can be a challenge. Both times I've been here I've had the biscuits and gravy. The gravy consists primarily of mushroom and onions. I think it was advertised as mushroom, but there's quite a bit of onions and larger chunks of onions in it. The only criticism I had for it is it definitely needed more seasoning- especially salt. read more

Off The Griddle - Biscuits and gravy - Vegan Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Off the griddle is a cute comfort food style restaurant. The meatless menu is packed with sandwiches, burgers, and great beverages. The locals rave about this place which is known for its crowd pleasing weekend brunch. I only wish I could have also tried their brunch menu but that just means I'll be back. Decent street parking and spotless establishment. Nevertheless-- the Reuben sandwich, jackfruit sandwich, Buffalo chk'n Mac n cheese, and a PB cup shake were among the items that were ordered on this particular visit. Made my way to the seating outside with my order number in hand after paying. There were a few people eating inside but it was a nice late afternoon/early evening that most people were seated outside. The wait time was minimal and the customer service was great. The sandwiches come with a side of fries or a salad. They have a variety of different beverages including kombucha, ginger beer, coconut water etc. The Buffalo chk'n Mac n cheese had to be my favorite even though everything was delicious. Off the grid and out of this world amazing! Most everything is prepared Vegan there are a few items that may contain dairy or eggs--there are indications next to the items and or simply ask. Fun fact: Off the griddle use to be a solar powered food cart but now a Brick and Mortar diner. read more

such a nice way to start our morning! the woman behind the counter was sooo helpful, kind, and patient. we decided to dine in as the weather was splendid. they have socially distanced tables to sit at right outside. the food is made to order and my boyfriend happily enjoyed their coffee as we waited, excited for our breakfast. the biscuits were buttery and soft, paired with the tasty gravy... oh my, absolutely delicious! the kale was cooked to the perfect texture and added to the greatness that is vegan biscuits and gravy. the hashbrowns...we could not get enough of! devoured the side of potatoes as soon as we received them. overall, it is worth a visit! give them a try and you will be glad you did. read more

One of the best vegan brunch places I've been to. The loaded waffle was delicious! We had is with the herb tofu scramble and it was so so good. The gravy and the waffle is simply a match made in heaven. It was a thick waffle so the gravy provided that much needed moisture and if you're up for it, a little hot sauce makes it even better. My boyfriend had a breakfast burrito and it was just as delicious (I took a bite...or more). It was also made with herb tofu scramble which tasted, in my opinion, better than a regular egg scramble. The great thing about this place is that you can easily switch between vegan and non-vegan dishes upon request. The location is okay, not very scenic but I'm not a Portland native so I don't know much about the area. We were seating outdoors. The table was a bit dirty but the waiters were really great and cleaned it up for us. The staff overall is very very friendly and are ready to answer any of your questions! read more

Overall: All vegan food! Very good! Food: I enjoyed the food. To be honest I didn't think it was anything crazy or anything exciting. We ordered the brunch wrap supreme and the nacho fries where they both included their house-made chorizo and in both dishes the chorizo had quite a lot of burnt pieces. The chorizo also had a hint of cinnamon which I thought took away from the meat and took away from the dishes overall. Also tried the chicken waffles. Was not impressed. Overall, this was a very average place. Portions were a little on the normal to small size with prices that I thought were a little too much for what the portions were. Service: Amazing service! The lady that served us was very friendly, had a great conversation with us and answered all of our questions! read more

This place is a vegan waffle lover's dream come true. I know they have more food, but finding a top quality vegan gluten free waffle is so hard! This place is amazing! My mouth is so happy to have this tasty buckwheat based goodness with options like pumpkin cheesecake and chik'n and fruit!!! It's seriously amazing! Order the waffles! Order more- share with your friends!! Don't stop there though- their tofu scramble is delightful and slightly herby but not overpowering in any way. The biscuits and gravy are so tasty- nice and fluffy biscuit. Their fake sausage had good flavor and the tasty fennel seeds. There really are too many good choices here! When you arrive, expect to have to wait like what everyone else said. You can sit outside or inside at a table or the bar, and while waiting can have coffee. I like that they seat you in a timely fashion so that when you sit down to order and get food, that time is minimized. Everyone is super nice. The decor is local art- fun and fresh. There is a good amount of seating but it's so popular, you have to wait. Worth it though! I'm sure dinner is great too, but it's really about the vegan brunch!! read more

OTG has a lot of fun vegetarian and vegan items, done up like fast food. Some are great (suprisingly the fake tuna) and some are not so much so. The homemade burger patty which is made up of rice, leeks, and mushrooms isn't my favorite but fortunately, there are a lot of options. The dining room is reminiscent of The Max from Saved by the Bell, the staff is always friendly, and their specialty drinks are great. read more

In town visiting and hitting up all the popular vegan spots! We ordered the fiesta Mac and cheese, chickn and waffles and one of the burritos. Mac and cheese was my favorite.
