    A known Portland treasure, this was my wife and I's first visit since moving here 14 years ago. God only knows why it took us so long. My wife ordered a mocktail spritz and the shrimp and grits; I had a grapefruit juice and the chicken and biscuits. Everything was fantastic. The breakfast potatoes may have been the best I've ever had. The sauce on the shrimp and grits was briney like the ocean, a great and bold flavor, even at 9am. The fried chicken was super peppery. We loved everything. Our only disappointment was that our side of praline bacon never arrived... we did not complain because the portions were so significant, we would have only been asking for trouble. We were not charged for the bacon, so no harm no foul I guess. We will be back when we have guests who are looking for a great breakfast place.

    The food and the menu are good. Service was average to good. The acoustics and noise level was terrible my date and I could barely hear each other on a Saturday night.

    We love Canard. The food is amazing and surprising and always tasty. The service is friendly and always answers any questions. We appreciate that the tables are not insanely close together. It is one of our favorite Portland restaurants!
