Reviews for City State Diner and Bakery in Portland, OR
I ordered the eggs Benedict with salmon and seared grits. Every bite was delicious, the eggs were on point and it had a very... good amount of salmon. The grits were crusty on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It was my first time eating grits. Woulddefinitely come back . Read more
Excellent food!...Very "hip" restaurant with awesome service. I must admit, I've never been to a restaurant where I had to... clear my own table, but the food was so good, I'll happily over look that. I highly recommend this restaurant and will eathere again when in Portland!???? Read more
Flavors are amazing! I had the best of both worlds and my partner hat the loukaniko sausage plate. Both were delicious. The only... reason they are a 3 of 5 is because I expect better eggs out of a diner. Scrambled eggs were over cooked and rubbery and thepoached eggs were over cooked and hard yolked. Read more
This place had delicious food. My husband had the Mile High scramble and I had the Best of Both with eggs Benedict and biscuits... and gravy. They were both really good, but I think next time I'll get the eggs Benedict. That hollandaise sauce was delicious!We also got the coffee cake to go, it had lots of cinnamon and nuts and although it was good not warmed up, I think it wouldhave been better warm. We will definitely come back for breakfast again. Read more
Very good brunch fare. The sausage is great. Also the potatoes, and the sourdough toast and poached eggs. A nice, laid back... vibe. They have plenty of outdoor seating too. Definitely recommend. Read more
Good location, options for seating, order at the counter, and friendly staff that delivery to your table. A vaccination card is... required to dine indoors. Food appearance is appealing, and they offer a nice amount of great options on the menu. However, Iwas disappointed in the flavor. I love benedicts (hollandaise sauce), but this was blan like a package, and the potatoes werecold and overcooked. The English muffin was not toasted, and there was to be jam on the muffin under the pork belly, but it wasso sparce, if it was there, that it was not detectable making this very blah tasting. Also, I'm not a fan of the bloody mary mixof seasonings used. Read more
Great food and service! Really good place for brunch on a weekday, they can be pretty busy other days but we got in no problem... on an off day. Scary delicious biscuits, and everything else was super yummy too! Definitely recommend a latte, it was so foamyand a perfect day way to survive the oncoming post-brunch nap! Read more
Better than most, but not a shining star. Worth trying to be sure. My critiques are more to do with technique in cooking but... not with flavor. I'll skip them for now. Service was fast and the staff were friendly and happy to help. Slightly unorthodoxordering system, but not impossible to figure out. The app would not work on my phone, so I had to order at the counteranyway. I will say that I 100% disagree with the review that said this was great coffee. It is serviceable coffee, but notamazing. Overall, they deserve the positive vibes and love they get, and I'll be coming back again. Read more
