I'm so happy I decided to try this little place, the food was stellar, reminded me of food I had with my grandmother as a child. Will be recommending to everyone I can :)
An extremely unique cafe with a one of a kind environment that feels like sitting in an old Victorian style home. Cameo cafe is serving up the best American and Korean fusion diner food with home made raspberry jam and their own delicious house hot sauce. We got the Korean pancake and the Due Gee's Fusion pancake which are savory and come with some soy sauce(maybe a dumpling sauce) for dipping.
The toast is made just for this restaurant and it is unique and quite tasty.
We had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was extremely kind.

Okay, just wanted to do one last Portland thing and this place was on best places to have breakfast at list so with plenty of time to kill before my flight I took the bus here to have a good lunch instead of some overpriced airline food
I do not regret it, the bacon was thick and salty but not overwhelmingly so, the eggs were runny like I wanted them and I wanted to get something unique, something I couldn’t normally get so I got the BinDaeTtok and it was delicious, really was, it was the savory pancake I desired and when in combo it’s a lot of food, I couldn’t finish it all so I brought the Korean pancake with me.
The vibe was very hole in the wall/local dive, that’s surprisingly welcoming because of how down to earth it is, there are photos of old miss oregons and the people just on the wall and it added to the charm. It was reasonably priced (for Portland), big portions and a good vibe. I see how this became a local institution and remains ones deservingly so. I’m glad I ventured out here and ate at this spot before taking transit to the airport. Was definitely worth it

I had corned beef hash with eggs and toast. Nice big portions, friendly attentive staff and owner. I've lived in NE Portland all my life I can't believe I've never eaten there before. I will definitely be going back.
This place is just amazing. You are literally welcomed with open arms! The owner slides the door open for you and warmly seats you herself.
The vibes are impeccable. There is live guitar and laughter in the air and real maple syrup on the tables.
You can get a steak or pancake, as the sign says, but also many delicious Korean dishes. Even just the house special hot sauce adds a delightful Korean flair to a regular breakfast if thats your choice.
Prices are very reasonable, only slightly higher maybe than a chain diner, but barely.
Service is great, the food comes out lightning fast and piping hot. They bake their own bread. Just a wonderful little breakfast place all around.

Cute little breakfast place in the skinniest building. Place is pretty space-challenged so better to come in groups of 2 and come early since it gets packed. There's also an outside area that's covered for overflow guests
Partner and I tried and loved their veggie fusion pancake which came with soy sauce and hot sauce. Food and service was quick.
We were charged an extra dollar for our food, even before tip was calculated. Maybe this was because the two of us only ordered one dish in between us???
Otherwise great food. Will still come back to try their other plates

Happened to be driving by from the airport. Just an impromptu stop because it looked unique. It was awesome! Atmosphere is something you just can’t explain until you go. The service was amazingly good and friendly. Excellent food! I highly highly recommend you stop in for a delicious meal.
I come to this restaurant every time I visit Oregon.
Their long life soup is AMAZING!
They also make their own raspberry jelly that I want to take home!
So good!
