Just found our new favorite brunch spot! We came the day after Christmas and were seated pretty quickly with hardly any wait, which was such a nice surprise. I ordered the biscuits & gravy with two eggs and bacon, and wow--so flavorful and comforting. I'm not usually a biscuits & gravy person, but this completely changed my mind. My boyfriend got the eggs Benedict, and we shared a small order of the brioche French toast--everything was absolutely delicious. It was so good we didn't even stop to take pictures of the food, which says a lot! Our server, Bry, was incredibly sweet and attentive, making the experience even better. Service was efficient, and we were able to enjoy our meal without feeling rushed. We were in and out while still feeling taken care of. We'll definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend for brunch! read more

Very cute and cozy breakfast spot! Love the relaxing color tones inside. The Mont de Cristo was delicious. The french toast was thick and well-battered, the cinnamon taste was very nice. I especially loved the side salad! Those pickled vegetables were refreshing and crunchy. The Spicy Chicken & Waffle was also good. Crispy chicken and cornmeal waffle were a great combo. Their portions were huge. Service was casual and friendly. I'd definitely be open to coming back! read more

The Mont - The Mont Meat. 3 egg omelette, with bacon, potatoes, toast and avocado. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We came to The Mont at 1030 on a Wednesday morning and got the last free table before they started a wait list. If that doesn't tell you this place has good food then I don't know what does. The vibes are everything you expect from a Portland restaurant, a little grungy, diner fare but with interesting twists and turns for that elevated Portland experience. I got the Mont De Cristo and was blown away with absolutely perfect french toast. Crispy on the outside, pillowy in the middle and a big cinnamon spice flavor. I would definitely recommend The Mont for anyone looking for a great brunch on the east side. read more

My partner, his friend and girlfriend and I came here for a little double-date brunch on a Monday around 10am, and it was such a good experience. I ordered the Monte Cristo and it was delicious--crispy on the outside, soft inside, and really satisfying without feeling too heavy. I also got a hot chai, and it ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. Perfectly spiced, warm, and comforting. The place had a relaxed vibe for a Monday morning, not too busy but still lively enough to feel cozy. Service was friendly and quick, and we never felt rushed. Definitely a spot I'd come back to for a slow, easy brunch! read more

Excellent quality and huge portions. I got the scramble with bacon and had 2 meals worth of leftovers! The vibes were casual and the outdoor patio/treehouse was perfect for bringing a pup. Friendly staff as well. Will definitely be back! read more

The Mont - The "Mont" meat scramble and coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Love the Mont!! On Belmont, this diner-esque eatery doesn't have a lot of seating, but weekdays are probably your best bet for no waits. All the employees I've interacted with were welcoming and friendly. The menu features egg benedicts, scrambles, and some of their well-knowns - french toast, monte cristo, and breakfast burrito. There are also a few selections for lunch! I got the mont de cristo and it was delicious! Thick challah bread, ham, swiss cheese, with a sunny-side-up egg - it is an elevated breakfast sandwich. I love a sweet-savory combo, and this hit the spot! The breakfast potatoes were crispy and perfectly fried - not too oily or salty. Every time I've been here has been a great experience! The Mont may not be one of the big-name-breakfast-places in Portland, but they are not to be overlooked!! read more

The wife wanted a breakfast burrito, and the powers of yelp brought us here! Put our name down and had enough time to grab coffee while we waited. Ended up sitting outside (heaters weren't on/working, unsure) but the sun made it comfortable! The burrito was delicious and my bacon breakfast sandwich was simple but so. good. I will be thinking of it for days to come! read more

So as a Uber and Lyft driver you discover some great eateries in the Portland Vancouver area. I recently dropped off a rider at this restaurant, and they highly recommended it. I finally had a chance to stop for breakfast. They were not wrong. My waiter Sophie was great, very welcoming and friendly. It is a fairly small place, but very cozy. I ordered the Chorizo Benedict with Avocado and Potatoes. It was fantastic. You always have to add avocado to an order!! I will be back. BTW do not park in the lot next to the restaurant, your can may not be there when your done.... read more

If I am ever abducted, I hope this is where I'm held hostage! The portions are huge, the menu has a great variety, there are weekend specials, the seating was comfortable, there is an outside dining area as well, everything was very clean and staff was above and beyond friendly. Service was so fast and incredibly accommodating with helpful suggestions. I ordered the meat scramble with no meat and they offered avocado as a substitute at no extra charge and that was brilliant; I never would've even thought to ask for that. We were never rushed, we were checked on several times and we were allowed to just visit and enjoy each other's company, which is probably a huge perk of going during the week and not the weekend. I can't wait to come back. read more

This brunch spot was unfortunately not worth the super long wait. The food was just okay and a bit overpriced...and this is coming from someone visiting from a HCOL city. $6 for a small serving of store bought OJ? Skip! We made the mistake of coming on the weekend, so we waited 1.5 hours to be seated. After placing our order, we had to wait another full hour before our food even came. Service was so slow that we considered leaving multiple times. Maybe this place is understaffed. Food wasn't bad but also wasn't memorable. I ordered the Española scramble with salad, which was just okay. The scramble was a bit bland though. I also could've easily made this same scramble myself without needing to wait 2.5 hours for it. After this meal, my group and I all agreed that we won't come back. read more

My daughter and I went to Mont on SE Belmont St ,for breakfast. Small restaurant, but don't let that discouraged you. Friendly staff and looking at others plates were generous servings. I ordered my favorite sausage biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs. My daughter had the breakfast burrito with ham. She took half home. My biscuits were perfectly done, with a slight crunch to them. I also ordered a Bloody Mary, nice. All in I would recommend this place. The staff were wonderful. Food was generous and tasty. Check them out if you can. read more

Very cute brunch spot, unfortunately the food wasn't as lovely as the decor. We ordered the classic Benedict, the Mont scramble, biscuits and gravy, and the Mont french toast. The hollandaise on the Benedict was very, very salty. We let the server know when he checked on us and he said he'd pass the message along to the kitchen. There was nothing special about the scramble either. The biscuits and gravy was just okay too, also a little on the salty side. The French toast was good, but it's something I could easily make at home. I enjoyed the coffee and potatoes the most. read more

Only good thing on the menu is the steak sandwich which I believe they've removed (of course I will delete this if I'm wrong) Other than that their door system is ridiculous and I saw them turn away a family of 5 who waited like an hour for a table. Also, why turn off online orders? Or be randomly closed all the time? Or be renovating the deck all weekend? This place just doesn't make sense. Gives off the vibe that it's being ran by someone Larping as Jeremy Allen White in the Bear but not in like a cute way, like the super annoying way nobody can stand. read more

Long wait for a table for 4 on a Saturday morning. We waited for about an hour to be seated and another 20 minutes to have our order taken. The vibe is very much down-home vintage diner, no fancy decor. I ordered the spicy chicken and waffles. I'd give it a 7.5/10! What was unique about this chicken and waffle meal is that the waffle was a savory corn and jalapeño version. It was pretty delicious and I would definitely order it again. read more

The food was perfect, elevated but homestyle. The server was inattentive, even beyond what might be excusable due to being understaffed. She was polite and managing a lot however. No coffee or water refills offered in an hourlong sit. Not even a thank you given when the bill was dropped off. We like it here and will be back. read more

I was in the area visiting friends, being from La I was very unfamiliar with the area but this little restaurant was so delicious. If I'm ever back in Portland I will be visiting again. My group tried 4 plates and all were 10/10 read more

When ordering a sandwich I was told they would do ANY egg type except a "broken yolk" for my sandwich because they didn't have time. As someone paying for a service I feel a simple easy request like that should be taken under consideration. Ordered side of fries thought was included with the sandwich and then got the bill saying the fries were an extra $6 so I paid $20 for half ass sandwich and some fries. The food was nothing special and not worth the price for 30+ minute wait. Not very clean- the floor looks like it's never been washed. read more

Food was just ok. Service was just ok. Nothing really to write home about. So my friend had the Benedict. The Hollandaise sauce tasted like it had mayo in it. I had the chicken sandwich which was really quite good. They were not busy but the staff was not super attentive. read more

Great food. Great Service. Great Ambiance. If I lived closer I'd definitely explore the full menu over the course of several years but I was happy with the burrito. I wasn't crazy about the habanero salsa but that's just me. read more

The Mont - Breakfast Burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The only bad thing about this spot is the wait and limited space. The food was amazing. I have to say this is probably one of the best brunch spots I've ever been to. I had the Portland breakfast or the old Portland or whatever it's called . My wife had chicken and waffles. The main thing that I'd like to point out here is the fact that the breading on the chicken was absolutely amazing . You don't find that out here. It was not overseas, but rather seasoned perfectly. Nice and crispy. The potatoes were cooked nicely as well as the eggs and add an abundance of flavor. The service was as good as it could possibly be whenever you're backed up as much as they were today. 9.5/19 read more

A small little restaurant, but I can see why it's crowded most of the time... Very delicious food and huge portions for the price you're paying so I highly recommend it. I had the biscuits and gravy and flavorful in the French toast. You get like three slices cut in half and you can get some bacon and eggs on the side. The coffee is delicious. It's everything you want breakfast to be or brunch. I highly recommend coming here because the service is kind and very helpful when choosing the dish that you want stuff down your throat. read more

The Mont - Biscuits and gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

What is wrong with me? The Mont deserves 4 stars. Why must I be so fussy and nitpick-y? Who knows. In any case, the Benedicts here are damn good, as confirmed by a friend who's ordered them the last 3 times we were here. And the Breakfast Salad I had recently? Awesome. Huge. Crazy stupid healthy. So yea, the Mont is on my regular breakfast rotation --good service, really good food, but just so-so ambiance. Am I overweighting the ambiance thing,...yea probably but it's important to me and The Mont is generic at best, with an almost bland interior with cafeteria type tables. There is a lovely - if compact - patio out back so maybe that's better, but.....I dunno. It's not you, The Mont - it's me. You're doing everything just fine. Maybe fix the really crappy parking situation but other than that...it's all good. read more

The food was very good, service and atmosphere were okay and left a bit to be desired. Quaint hipster vibe.

This is such a cute little brunch place. I sat on the patio because the weather was really nice and the patio was cute. I got the espanola scramble with a biscuit and gravy on the side and it was delicious, the scramble not so much the biscuit and gravy. It wasn't bad in fact the biscuits was very big and tasty but the gravy was a little bland to me. The scramble itself was very tasty the chorizo had a little kick and of course I added hot sauce. The potatoes were delicious and crispy as well, it's so hard getting the perfect level of crispy but soft breakfast potatoes but I'd say these were perfect. I got the berry lemonade which was really tasty and refreshing. Service was quick and very nice. Overall no complaints. Now I went on a Friday morning and it wasn't too packed but this place is kind of small so I can imagine it getting busy in the weekends. read more

This place lives up to the hype. Food was well seasoned. Very friendly staff! There was a brief wait, but worth it when you're among good company. Overall, great experiences. I ordered the eggs Benedict with ham and Avocado, was VERY impressed with the entire plates presentation; but their hollandaise sauce, WHOA! That was the best part. My husband ordered their French toast which he rates an 8; he cleaned his plate even contemplated ordering it again. Instead he opted for a bloody Mary. I got a mimosas. Drinks were equally tasty as their food! Most definitely recommend. read more

The Mont - Eggs Classic Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The mont provided a mount of food for my empty stomach. I ordered the chicken and waffles & french toast. Excellent options for both. The french toast was an exquisite mixture of fruit compote with maple syrup. Great blend of bread with fruit. It was sweet, but not too sweet where you are squinting your eyes. The chicken and waffles was astonishingly good. The fried chicken was excellent. They had some cinnamon to add an extra flavor to the overall piece. I thoroughly enjoyed both of the spots. Plenty of seating inside. I love the added touch of the VHS tapes in the bar seating area. It was nostalgic for sure. The service was very quick for a weekday lunch time. It was amazing. Great institution! read more

Upon arrival there is a sign indicating to wait to be seated and a sign-in sheet for you to write down your name and number of guest(s). We were the only one in line. We waited a few minutes until we were seated. (My sister wrote her name down on the sign-in sheet thinking we needed to write it down.) The server told us we could seat anywhere we like. It is a cute small place. They have an outdoor seating in the back. We opt to sit inside as the server mention he wasn't sure if there were any outdoor seating available and that we would have to wait if we wanted to eat outside. In order to view their menu, you have to scan the QR code they placed on every table. We opted to order 3 items and share among us. We had the classic eggs benedict, chahala french toast and the biscuits and gravy. Each dish was delicious! Though service wasn't amazing. Our server was kind and checked-in on us twice. The downside, it took over 30 mins. for our food to arrive when we placed our order. I'm not quite sure what was the cause. It could have been multiple of reasons. It would have been appreciated if someone had updated us. We were slightly on a time crunch and one of us had to leave soon after when we recieved our food. Overall the food was delicious. read more
