This is one of the best diners I've ever been to. It's like walking into your Korean grandma's home in the 1970s. The pink... flower wallpaper, the textured carpet, the purple blinds, the family photos on the walls... simply the most unbelievablegrandma-core ambiance. The food is as impeccable as the decor, especially the kimchi omelette and hash brown. The homemadebread, jam, and hot sauce are to die for. The coziest food for a cloudy day. Read more

Excellent service. The portions are wild. You're guaranteed to leave stuffed to the brim. I love a cafe and Cameo did not... disappoint. It hit all the high points and then some. Eggs and hash browns are cooked to perfection, the coffee and ice waterstay topped off. Sue Gee was there and gave us a brief history of the family business. The highlight was the in-house hot sauceand a berry compote. Each elevated everything it touched giving the meal an incredibly tasty home touch. Above all else, thiscafe has Korean and american offerings making it a truly unique experience. Don't sleep on this gem. Read more

What a surprise this place is. We stopped in to try it out, and we're intrigued by the menu. The hybrid manner of the food... with Korean and US food was great! I ordered a pancake and hash, the pancake was fluffy with the vegetable Korean pancake alongwith it, it was a phenomenal fusion mixing them together. The hash browns were well done with the right amount ofcrunch. Service was great and kept my water and coffee cups full at all times. Staff was very friendly. A quick side notethey also make their own sweet chili sauce, and it is great on the eggs or anything really. Read more

Best service and food we had on our trip to Portland! My portion was too big for me but the veggie omelet is amazing, the... cabbage made it! The servers were fantastic and so sweet. Plus they have the cutest little bantams outside that made me miss mychickens back home. The gravy on their biscuits and gravy was so good! 100000% recommend. The ambience is too too cute! Read more

The most unexpectedly delightful breakfast spot I have ever been to in Portland. Mix of deliciously classic greasy diner style... breakfast/lunch served all day, infused with Korean BBQ if you?re in the mood. Vegetarian options available. Savory pancakes11/10. This is the home style kitschy spot that dreams are made of. Read more

Seriously, what is this place?! Amazing Korean / American breakfast place with southern style biscuits and gravy next to... kimchi. The food is good but pricey. The portions are big enough to split. You?ll have people taking care of you from everydirection! They have an outdoor dining section that looks comfy but a bit too indoors (think screened patio) for bringing yourdog. They also don?t have designated parking but there is pretty open street parking. Read more
