I had the Dirty Grits which were ah-MAZING. Creamy, cheesy, and expertly seasoned, with Andouille sausage and shredded BBQ chicken, topped with the most perfect fried eggs over easy--beautifully cooked with runny centers that made the grits into a bowl full of heaven.
The food came up fast and magically at exactly the right temperature to reach the table hot but ready-to-eat by the time I sat down.
My son (whose picky preferences rival my own) was dubious at the thought of an unknown menu, but when he heard me describe the Mac'n'Cheese with sharp cheddar, gouda, and mozzarella, and lacking any suspicious "green stuff" (one of his all-time mac'n'cheese ruiners), all reluctance fell away. His first bite confirmed that we'd just found a new dinner spot for family meals out.
The prices are VERY reasonable, particularly with the generous portions and insanely great flavors. We had plenty for dinner plus leftovers for lunch (for me, breakfast because I didn't want to wait that long for the rest of my grits!)
Seating was easy even on a Friday night around 6:30pm, and the space is comfortable, casual, and covered; all perfect for small groups in the unpredictable winter weather in Portland.
Don't miss the cheerful pig mascot at the counter wearing a stylish hat!
