    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.

    My third dinner here over 13 years. The first was so good I always try to get here when i’m in Portland. Food, cocktails, wine list, and service are superb. The decor provides great atmosphere. The crab stuffed salmon is absolutely amazing. Easy walking distance from many downtown hotels.
