The best chicken sandwich ever! I've also had their chicken with biscuits for breakfast and it was amazing too. Parking is difficult, but worth it.

Good lord this was delicious food. Shut the screen door on their fried chicken, waffles, and cinnamon rolls. The BEST I've ever eaten anywhere hands down. The seasoning on the chicken was incredible. A moist tender meaty chicken breast encased in exactly the right amount of batter. Incredible. The cinnamon rolls were so flavorful hit gooey crispy, with a barest hint of citrus in the decadent frosting - heavenly. The sweet potato waffles were like a crispy chai flavor and texture. Light fluffy everything you want in a waffle would eat this style over a buttermilk waffle 10/10 times. The service was great very friendly, the ambiance indoors and out is charming and instagram worthy. If only I could eat here every week!

Loved our lunch there today! Great atmosphere, good prices, and really good food. The chicken and waffles was on point and the other two in our party were impressed with their items. If you want a GREAT Brunch option check them out!

Came into screen door with a large party and they were very welcoming. They checked in on us making sure that we had every we needed and when someone in our party had a question about what was in the "comeback sauce," our server went back in the kitchen to check the ingredients! I love the chicken and waffles or the fried chicken dinner or even the chicken strips! The breading on the chicken makes for the perfect crispy bite and the chicken stays juicy!

We arrived late, but they graciously gave us a table and I was thrilled to find the service impeccable. I went for the chicken and waffles. Even writing that is making me salivate. Really liked the cocktail I had, which was called "Don't tell me what to do." Good name! I licked the glass and ate all the ice. Yummmm. So anyway ...the place is cute. The food is good. And as always, I loved it.

A hot spot for brunch in Pearl District, Portland. They don't accept reservations for the weekend brunch; we waited about 45min-1 hours to get in. Chicken dinner steak is delicious with pork gravy; cinnamon rolls must be tried with Sunday coffee. All delicious.

Never had anything but a good experience here in the dozen or so times I have visited. The food is fantastic! The drinks are sublime! The staff is friendly. Yes, you will have to wait for a table because they don't do reservations but it's a cute neighborhood for waiting outside. A little on the pricey side but you get a lot of food so it's worth the cost. Also the banoffee pie is heavenly!

I was visiting from LA and was recommended to this breakfast spot. Fantastic breakfast choices and service. Can't wait to come back!

Superb. They were closing down their patio as we arrived. Since we had our dog they left one patio table for us, plugged in a heater, and brought our dog a water dish. The fried chicken was crispy and everything I hoped for. Eating it made me happy. The patio was nice. It was both heated and covered. A+ dog friendly patio, fantastic service and food.
Food is absolutely delicious and served piping hot even with a full restaurant Would recommend to anyone looking for that good southern comfort food

BEST CHICKEN AND WAFFLES!!! The chicken is perfectly seasoned, crispy and juicy, laid on top of a fluffy waffle and paired with sweet maple syrup. We were also pleasantly surprised by how it wasn't too hard to get a table for 2 on a sunny Saturday around noon! We put our names down, perused Powell's Bookstore, and got a text saying our table was ready in less than 15 minutes!

Gotta love a good brunch with just the right amount of t of variety. First of all, the biscuits are FIRE!! You have to try them. Got Chicken and biscuits, mushroom and something scramble (sorry, forgot whole name) and the chicken fried steak. Potatoes are good with just the right amount of seasoning and not dry. Service was excellent. They don't take reservations it we were able to sit right away. Definitely would return.

Brilliant place. Was able to squeeze in a morning reservation for my family on our last Portland trip. The wife and I love breakfast when on vacation, and our little carb lover is a positive menace when he's hangry, so when I got a reservation, I stopped looking at other places. Got in early, so the restaurant was quiet when we got there, but by the time we left the place was hopping. That fast. They had set up a high chair for the boy, and he was happy for the meal. But I was there (and you should go) for the food. The food was exquisite. I got the Cajun scramble. Eggs were fantastic, soft but not wet. Cheese was the perfect creamy accompaniment to the slight spice of the sausage. My brother got the chicken and waffles, and kept remarking, multiple times, about the light, non-greasy fry on the chicken. We got an appetizer of Fried Okra, so I can confirm the plausibility of the feat. All in all, our entire party loved, or at least liked their food (my wife wished she had ordered the chicken and waffles after cutting off a piece from my brother's plate, but was happy enough with her food). We all agreed that we would return.

Went in on a Saturday morning at 9:30am and was pleasantly surprised that our group of 3 was seated right away. The decor and overall vibe was great - felt like I was transported to Nashville. Even though the restaurant was super packed, our waitress checked in with us regularly. Here is what we ordered: Cream Cheese Cinnamon Rolls - SO DELICIOUS Sawmill breakfast - very good Cajun Scramble - had a little kick & the potatoes were perfectly seasoned Fried Chicken Salad - huge salad, good option if you want something on a lighter note Portland Coffee Roasters Cold Brew - got one free refill
