Sckavone's

Dropped in for Friday evening dinner, 6:15-ish. We were seated immediately, all booths were full but plenty of tables open.Both of us had viewed the online menu so we ordered immediately. Water and tableware came quickly and we sat back to appreciate the ambiance that is Skavone's.I don't use the phrase lightly but this is the second time that I've called a place "quintessential" Portland. This restaurant has been around seemingly forever yet it continues to provide a quality meal at a reasonable price. And, if it's made any changes other than to its menus, they're not noticeable. This night I had the Steelhead with asparagus and polenta. At least that's what the online menu said. That I received Brussels sprouts instead of asparagus was not unexpected considering the asparagus season ended a couple of months ago. The fish was nicely cooked although smothered in caper cream sauce. Polenta was cute little triangles of goodness. So, four stars. Minus one because prices on the online menu need to be updated. Also, maybe put the cream caper sauce on the side? Of course we'll be back.

Always a smiling face to greet you! Good selection of well prepared foods. I have been a handful of times dine in, and take out. Everything from the veggie scramble to Caesar salad is on point, portobello sandwich yummm YES! It's a cozy spot where you feel right at home, thanks Sckavone's!

Used to come here when my friend lived around the corner, but haven't been in a while so while we were nearby and wanted food I thought to come in. Really glad we stopped in because I wanted their smoked salmon benny. My partner got some kind of egg dish, but I think he got it mostly for the gravy, which he very much enjoyed. My BIL got a sandwich that hit the spot and I had some of his fries, which were so tasty! I feel like the service (which was prompt and friendly) as well as the food are still as good as I remembered. Plus I had so much salmon I didn't feel cheated when I gave some to my cats at home later.

We had dinner there last night and it was great family cooking dinners - I would call it tasty comfort food - large portions - affordable and we ate our two entrees for two nights. If your looking for a home cooked meal that won't break your wallet then check these folks out !

Always great, reminds me of home. Could use a deep clean but I'mStill coming even if I gotta wait. It's that good.

Took my Mom to Sckavones for a birthday lunch. After a friendly greeting, we enjoyed delicious lunches including a fresh cobb salad and tasty chicken club. Easy access and quaint atmosphere will definitely bring us back.

We were walking along Division, looking for some boutiques and shopping that were you remembered from a few years back. We were hungry and saw the diner and said why not. It was really delicious. Good comfort food. Friendly service. Love the old soda counter.

We used to love this place. It had good food, big portions, and great prices The last few times I have eaten there, I did not care for the food. It used to be great diner food. Now it is more like greasy, overcooked food..Bummer. Street parking. Maybe it was off days.

Solid brunch spot, but even better dinners. Very neighborhood vibe when you go in. Great portions.The customer service is second to none.Family favorite for years now. Keep up the good work!

Quaint diner. Friendly considerate staff. Deliciously prepared American comfort foods. I will be returning.
