West Café

What’s in a weekend brunch, I ask you?  After all, eggs, potatoes, meat portion of some kind – what’s the big deal?  Sadly, dear reader, this is not the first of my forays into gross naiveté.  But it does explain why when something fresh and exciting is offered up for morning dining, I for one take notice.  And that, my friends, is what we have going on at West Café.  Me, taking notice.  ‘Cause this stuff’s good.  Two poached eggs on Dungeness crab corn fritters and wilted greens (I prefer to order my greens on a separate plate,) served with soy mustard sauce and the best home fries I’ve ever tasted.  I kid you not, the best home fries ever.  Or try your eggs on homemade black bean cakes with cheddar, salsa, and sour cream.  Delish. 

Located on SW 12th and Jefferson, West Café offers everything from Tarragon Egg Salad sandwiches to Pan-Seared Cumin Rubbed Salmon and a slew of clever sounding martinis in between.  And from the chic décor sporting uniquely formatted photos of local flare to the friendly and informed staff, including bar manager, Christopher, and servers who won’t let you be seated without asking to take your coat – this place also serves up a slice of Portland that we’re oh so glad that owners Sean Concannon and Douglas B. Smith decided to share with us.
