I came here on a Sunday for brunch with my kids and ordered the pancakes as we are avid pancake eaters! When it came to the table, it looked awfully small and considered ordering another serving to feed my 2 kids and myself + husband. Shortly after, we had a couple next to us order the same pancakes, which were distinctively way larger in size than what we just ordered couple of minutes ago. I politely asked the server why are my pancakes are not that size (table next to us) and mine is so small it could be considered as blinis (for caviar). I paid for full size pancakes, just like everyone else at this restaurant. She responded "some of the kitchen staff are training". Ok so their training their staff. I saw an expediter, manager, etc working that time I came in. That means it had to go through several "checkpoints" and no one noticed the difference until it finally arrived at my table? Our server, being the last checkpoint to notice that these pancakes were embarrassingly small. She literally served the same pancakes few minutes after putting ours down on the table! There was no compassion at all and dismissed the fault with an offering of a pastry on our way out. I opened our paper bag to see what kind of pastry she compensated us for, and instead got a rocka$$ hard cookie that was just the icing on the cake of our experience at portland variety.
