The Croquettes and the cauliflower was amazing. The salad was really good, and the chicken was almost perfect, maybe a tad salty. The potatoes were cooked to a crunchy exterior and a velvety soft interior. We wanted two plates of the cauliflower! Next time... The space is cute as welland the staff was friendly and helpful.

I really enjoyed eating at this place. They have a gas oven that makes incredible Chicken . I got a quarter chicken dinner with salad. Every bite of the chicken is tender & juicy. Their potatoes are crispy. Nice and chic interior with an outside patio. Staffs are very nice and good at making recommendations. Can't wait to come back

Their chicken is spectacular. A must-have if you're walking around northern Portland and you're not sure what to eat. We cleaned our plates, and can't wait to be back.

Excellent Spanish meal here. My wife lived in Spain for 3 years. For 28 years I've had to listen to her spout about the lovely Spanish cuisine. Especially the peppers and roasted chicken. By all accounts, this place serves authentic cuisine that my spouse remembers. For me, Chicken was just plain yummy. Peppers too. Salad. Everything. Easy to find on Killingsworth. Lots of street parking. Great service. Go!

Possibly the best chicken and chicken sandwich in northwest! This spot feels like unknown hotspot that hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves. I don’t have single complaint from the jojo style fries to the dipping sauces to the gluten free cheesecake. I don’t get gluten free options but I had to try their cheesecake. It was the best cheesecake hands down. If you haven’t tried this chicken sandwich, you can’t have list of best in area without this place! It’s perfect.

The chicken and chicken sandwich were lip smacking good. The Patatas Bravas a must get. The sauces are all made at the restaurant and so good. Perfect portions and wonderful, friendly staff. We most certainly will be back when we are next in the PDX area.

We walked by this space for months before it opened wondering what it was going to be like... wow oh wow oh wow! Ordered the family meal to go and it did not disappoint! The chicken was so flavorful and the salad, the fricken salad was so good that the Mrs actually had lunch early the next day so she could finish it. The family meal can feed at least 6 and well worth it. I’ve also have been at Up North next door where they drop off food orders (mostly the burger)
