This is a quaint, little, unassuming place to eat. If my friend didn't take me here, I wouldn't have noticed it at all! But it's got a nice view of the river, pretty clean, and quick service. Nice owners, and the cook was really good. Definitely worth grabbing a quick bite when you're in a crunch!

If you're looking for good Korean food this is the place to stop by! A little hard to find, this hidden gem is what Portland has been lacking which is Korean food. Prices are reasonable and the owners are great!

Wow! What a lovely find, Beef bulgogi w/rice and egg over the top, what an amazing breakfast by the river! Super friendly staff, we love it!

Great service with a buffet/cafeteria-style setup. The food leans toward Asian fusion. Never too busy around lunchtime. Request chairs for the outside seating when you order. Available restrooms are the building’s first floor common restrooms, which are very nice.

I don’t understand why this place has such a low rating. I visited Riverwalk Cafe several times. It was a short, easy walk from the Residence Inn and had way better breakfast options. The Breakfast Burrito is packed with the goods and was so filling. The chicken apple sausage is great! I highly recommend! Also, the Chocolate Chip Pancakes are wonderful! Mine were generously loaded with chips. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the city! Wonderful location as well, the river is gorgeous to admire on a sunny day. Service was friendly every time. I totally recommend!

Amazing place. It’s a nice spot by the river. Breakfast burritos by Norma are great and awesome coffee and service.

The owner is the absolute sweetest, they weren't too busy for midweek lunch time, so that was nice. I got the Chicken Katsu, and it's was enough for two people holy wow. It looked like two breasts worth of meat! I took half home. Very reasonable price for the amount of food given.
