Reviews for Elmer's Restaurant (Mall 205, Portland, OR) in Portland, OR

Great restaurant that featured local food products. The bacon was cooked perfectly! The crepes were super light and fluffy with... great icing and strawberry sauce. The potato cakes were crispy and fluffy. Eggs cooked nicely and according to preference. TheGerman pancake was huge, buttery and delicious. Orange juice had pulp which wasn't expected but it was fine. Overall a greatmeal Read more

Got mixed berry German pancakes with supposed to be over medium eggs yet they were not cooked over medium and to top it off... there was a long hair I ate and literally pulled out my mouth that was a good 5 inches long!!! Manager came over and said hewould comp the eggs and meat for my trouble and only charge for the German cake yet to only find out it was only a total of$1.20 that was taken off the bill! I'm pretty sure 2 eggs and 3 sausage links would cost me more than that had I ordered them onthe side!! Definitely not going to come back here! Read more

The food was absolutely perfect! The ranch breakfast was made by a chef not just a cook. I asked for crispy hashbrowns they were... done to perfection. Eggs over easy also done perfect, no runny spots and no overdone yolks. The buttermilk biscuit melted in mymouth! The smokehouse bacon was slightly crispy but not burnt or overcooked. It was the best breakfast I have had in manyyears!!! The service was delightful and the atmosphere was comfortable and very clean. I am a huge fan and will be returning asoften as I can. Read more

The standard consistency you'd expect from a well-managed chain restaurant. Local variations add a nice touch for familiar... warm-fuzzies. I had the Denver & Tillamook Cheddar omelet, it was delicious. Great coffee too. The service at this particularrestaurant is friendly, professional and efficient. I'll definitely be going again soon.

We just started going to Elmer's again after covid. Food is good. If there is a problem, it is addressed quickly. Staff is... amazing. Many have worked there for years. They have told us they are treated well. To us, breakfast dishes are their forte. So many choices. Read more

Wait staff was friendly and helpful. Food was good and hot . Ordered that huge German Pancake. It's basically a flat crepe. Had... crepes that big in Alaska. Fresh fruit was tasty. My daughter is gluten free. She got an omelette with hash brown. Problem witha restaurant that does not do a gluten free menu is they really are.not educated on gluten allergies. So many foods can be lacedwith flour. Shredded cheese, non caking ingredients, hollandaise sauce, even some prepared eggs. IHOP puts pancake batter intheir egg omelette. Brags about how it makes the eggs more solid. Anyway. Shortly after getting home she didn't feel well.Stayed in bed. Had a nasty headache, nausea. If you want gluten free this is probably not your go to place. Place was jampacked. Handicap friendly. Restaurant, bathroom, parking. Fireplace was a nice touch. Warmed me up from the ? rain. Pictureson the wall were nice. I wish I could go back and try that fresh crab omelette. Read more

The food is good not great. Everything seems geared toward a bland taste preference. The staff, atmosphere, and attention to... detail are wonderful and brought them up to 4 stars. Ask for hot sauce as well as the salt and pepper, you are going to need it. Read more

Love this place, the staff is amazing and if we get Eric he already knows my family. Since we usually come here every Friday or... during the weekend. This time around I got an omelette, it was amazing. I also got my all time favorite ???? clam chowder yum!The previous time I went I got the Chicken-Fried Steak and Eggs with my clam chowder! I always look forward to getting my ClamChowder when I go. If you are in the area stop by and try this place out. I honestly can?t remember how long we have been comingto this place but I believe it?s been more than 12 years. Read more
