We had brunch there a few days ago. It was quiet there. We enjoyed the eclectic menu and flavors that were also diverse. We had the eggs and tried several of the cocktails. The flavors were so unique and a real attention to detail was evident in all they did. Definitely stop in while you are in Sopo.

Great place and great outdoor dinning. Was the first place we landed at as soon as we arrived in Portland. Definitely a great location. Liked the Costa Rican cuisine and colorful drinks. Also very well priced and comfortable outdoor dining tables.

So glad I was able to start off the year with this delicious meal. We got the patacones, media noche (not pictured because – hangry), and this duck sandwich that I forget the name of because also, hangry. Food took a little while, but it was quite busy. Definitely worth the wait!

Found this place by chance and was not disappointed. Friendly staff with great recommendations and an atmosphere to match. Small interior with a handful of tables and bar seating. Food was excellent. Our table had the mussels, Cuban sandwich and grilled cheese. All exceeded expectations.

Super welcoming and laid back atmosphere that successfully elevates the experience of a classic Latin joint in a really comforting and interesting way. From the moment we walked through the door, we were warmly greeted by our server, Mary, and the rest of the staff were just as great to us. All of the food (even the stuff we didn’t order) looked and smelled amazing and what we got was so good, I wish I lived closer. Highly recommend the Gallo Pinto and the Ron Don and make sure to ask about the Casado. The protein the day we went was fried chicken in a sticky sesame glaze and was absolutely AMAZING!!! Can’t recommend this place enough: a highlight of our trip!

Such a great clean brunch. Had the walnut hash and it was awesome. Not greasy but still so savory and satisfying. The drinks were amazing (spicy margarita and a hot toddy) and the service was great. Open kitchen style with the efficiency of a well piled machine. It’s a cozy place with minimal seating but definitely worth any wait you would have. Very creative dishes that show how much care goes into them.

I just spent 3 days in portland and we went to many restaurants and all were excellent and deserve 5 stars, but Cafe louis was easily the highlight of our culinary trip. We went for breakfast and had 2 things the casado which was a little bit of everything on the menu and the tres les pancakes. The pancakes were the best pancakes I have ever had. The waitress was super helpful and the interior was very nice. It was a co pletely unexpected dight
