I regretfully forgot to grab a picture, but this was a delightful find, as was the owner and her lovely daughter. They have decorated with a fun, eclectic mix of decor that made me feel a little like Alice at the Mad Hatter's tea party. They have a unique menu and they accommodate vegetarians like myself. I got the artichoke omlette (i added my own hot sauce AND the owners special sauce) and loved it. At the waitresses recommendation, i added some rice to it with my saved leftovers and it was amazing! :D They had home made jelly for the poppy seed toast as well. Delicious.

Friendly but intermittent service. It was busy the day I went and I had a hard time getting my waitresses attention or any attention at my table once my food was delivered. I sat near their coolers which unfortunately emitted a quite unpleasant smell which forced me to breathe only thru my mouth. That made it hard to enjoy my meal which was the only really good part of this place. All in all good food, great portions but I'll probably order to go if I make a return trip.

I’m a breakfast/brunch lover this place is a Korean/American fusion and oh boy it not disappoint. From pancakes to omelettes everything is delicious I’ve been coming religiously at least once a week to eat here. Portions are huge so I think you can easily share with another person or come prepare to bring half of your meal home, trust me this is coming from a guy with a hefty appetite!!. Another thing that I love about this place is as soon as you show up at the door till the moment you leave servers and this Korean woman who I believe is the owner or manager greets you and makes you feel like home it can be super busy and they always on top Of you to see if you need anything from coffee to another drink this place it’s like no other so please do yourself a favor and go have breakfast if you haven’t visit this place yet .!!

Pancakes with raspberry jam!

Love the neighborhood feel, the welcoming staff and good service. But the food lacked flavor. The eggs and hash browns were cooked in way too much grease and lacked their own flavor. It looked like the sausage patty was house made but it too didn’t taste like much. The portions were way too big. I ate less than half of my meal and felt heavy and weighted down for hours. Disappointed

If you haven’t eaten here yet… what are you doing? Seriously? It’s one of the best places to stuff your face with delicious fusion cuisine in a quirky, friendly atmosphere nestled in NE Portland.Don’t think.Go.Eat.

Awesome staff, great food. Nice out of the way cafe. Left a 45% tip, but it wasn't charged to my card. I felt awful the waitress didn't get the tip. I tried calling, but was told it was too late. Wish I knew her name, I would send her a check.

One of my favorite breakfast spots. Food is great and plentiful. What i love the most is its welcoming atmosphere. All staff has an amazing attitude with a service oriented mindset that is rare to see. The decor stays true to Portland, but also includes the owners and restaurants history making it a true city staple!

Worthy! The portions are huge, we probably should have split a plate; but when we go to a diner new to us, we like trying different items and comparing. We were there for breakfast and ordered up the corned beef hash and grilled pork chops - both plates were excellent!

Not that another 5 star review will make a difference but wooowwwww was I blown away by this place.Get this: bacon, pancakes, and waffles all are terrific, but also shiz like bulgogi and kimchi hashbrowns? I’m in heaven from the selection alone.Served up quickly too. I love being able to watch these folks work - attentive, efficient, and warm.Great big portions so I recommend sharing, don’t be greedy. I have a hefty appetite and ended up with leftovers for lunch.
