   A great brunch spot for a group. The Joe's Scramble was delicious and the service was quick and attentive.

   Always love Portage Bay! Can’t say enough about the lingonberry Swedish pancakes. Got a “kids” serving with the huevos rancheros-great recco by the waitress. Was able to have sweet and savory! What a great start to the day!!

   As always, the food and service were good. A great place to go with a group for breakfast/brunch - but make sure to always have a reservation, this place gets packed! Also - great option for anyone that is Celiac or Gluten Free. They have many really tasty GF options on their menu. The only downside is the noise. Always very loud in there so if you are hoping to have some intimate conversations I'd maybe pick another option.

   Overall a nice brunch for five adults. French toast items, migas with chorizo, avocado toast all excellent. The special salmon benedict item was disappointing: cold, meager quanity of what seemed like canned flaked salmon, the entire item seemed possibly prearranged and kept cold in the refrigerator, although the poached eggs were perfect. Coffee better than most spots in Seattle. The restaurant was a bit noisy and quite cold. Still a very nice brunch overall.
