A few blocks north, Upper Left has a minimalist hipster aesthetic, with tasty coffee and breakfast bites ( I highly recommend the avocado toast). The vibe comes with a price though- for example, the milk substitute costs $1.50 extra.

You probably aren't getting in without a reservation unless you show up at 5 to snag one of their few walk-in spots for dinner- but if you can, try the tasting menu. It is a korean-fusion restaurant located inside the cutest courtyard. My favorite restaurant in Portland.
