I just tried this location by accident. It was beautiful. I got an oat berry French toast, and it was heavenly The berry bar is a nice touch! The staff was quick and kind. Definitely will be back

Love the all day breakfast food here. And they have sandwiches too during lunch. My favorite is the ‘migas’ which is basically an open faced breakfast burrito.

It was easy to get a last minute reservation for three, on the patio with our dog! Food is fresh, delicious and local. I can’t speak to other locations as I pretty much only go to this one.We ordered the French toast for a trip to the all favorite breakfast bar, huevos rancheros (a favorite and my usual) with pork and avocado, and the mushroom Benedict! Pictures represent half portions, they were so good I started eating before my review photo!

It's a very popular restaurant. When you go in, it feels like an ordinary breakfast restaurant. But the food delivered is amazing. In the photo, the meal looks ordinary, but in the middle is a rich crab steak, full of crab meat aroma. .The satisfying crab meat is worth trying.

In town for a college tour. We had such an incredible experience that I don’t know if I can ever eat at my daughter’s favorite breakfast place back home, again! We’re going back tomorrow.Everyone was super friendly, the food was amazing, five stars all around.

The food was extremely delicious, but unfortunately, I was not used to the weather. It felt cold to sit outside and dine, and I couldn't feel the warm atmosphere in the restaurant.

There is a video on youtube of the employees of Portage Bay Cafe on South Lake Union st repeatedly harassing, intimidating, threatening, and physically assaulting a photographer on the sidewalk. These employees are violent and dangerous. See attached pictures of only a couple of the many employees involved in the mob attack.

Nearly ruined omelette with odd brand sriracha sauce…. Would rather have used Tabasco/Cholula/Tapatío but it was not to be

The crab cake is tasty! The Swedish pancake is eggy and the texture is so soft. Loved the berry bar too! Just perfect.

My husband and I ate here on a Thursday morning around 8am so we were sat right away. Food and service was great! We shared one large breakfast dish. We tried taking the rest of the family who was in town with us on Saturday morning and it was an hour wait which we could not wait for.

I've never seen EMPLOYEES be able to get away with attacking a man on the "PUBLIC SIDEWALK" for video taping, however I hope your business has suffered for their actions! Where was the manager and why did he/she allow those "THUGS" to act like unprofessional jerks! It's a good thing I wasn't there, things would've gotten real bad, real quick! Every employee on duty that day should have been ARRESTED and FIRED! I hope it was worth it!

•March 2024• I usually visit another location and love it. So since I was staying in university area, I figured I’d check this location out. Got my order of hash without any potatoes, complained and the server told me the lazy cooks excuse was portioned fresh off the flattop. They sent me room temperature potatoes with were red instead of the fingerling it says on the menu. Also, all the veggies were beyond over cooked. The vegan pancakes were awful too. I definitely won’t be coming back to this location again.

It was a good brunch place. Waiting line is way too long. Service is great and fast.

Arrived for a Saturday 12:30pm reservation but still had to wait 15-20min for a table. We joined a huge list of others similarly reserved but waiting. Then it took a very long time for our waiter to get to our table - we finally had to beg a bus person to get them. Narrowly made our theater time down the street. If you want to eat here, book an extra 30min.
