Kerns Kitchen

My daughter and I are very sensitive gluten intolerant and we were so happy to discover this restaurant. Everything is naturally gluten free besides the beer. My daughter had the green bowl and I had the pozole. Both were delicious. The pozole was a different take on pozole than I’ve had before but it was really tasty. I also had a margarita and it was one of the best I’ve ever had.

We love this place and order food to pickup pretty often. We had a large order yesterday and noticed a massive difference in the tortillas. They are usually SO good and flavorful and obviously homemade but yesterday's tortillas were dry, looked different and tasted like stale store bought tortillas. Another disappointing thing is that our order is always missing one thing. Yesterday it was the extra cabbage. Besides this the food is VERY good!

The food here is definitely one of our go to’s as a family! The skin on the chicken is definitely one of the best I’ve ever tasted! The rice and beans our great too! I love the pinto beans with bacon! Their sauces are delicious as well! Just don’t sit near the sewer vent outside it could definitely kill the vibe!🤣❤️ Consistency is definitely what makes us keep coming back thanx for feeding us!!

this is a great spot, especially on a nice day. The chicken is always juicy and deliscious and their sides are equally as good. The price is fair and they have a great little bar that serves good cocktails and has a small draft beer list that’s usually on point with local craft beers. The patio is huge and a great space to enjoy lunch or dinner (they have indoor seating as well but it’s small with only about 6-8 tables). I enjoy my chicken on the patio or take it home.

The other photos hooked my interest, and I am happy to report the experience exceeded my expectations! The chicken was delicious and the portions were very generous. I got a half chicken, which was almost too much to eat on my own. It would probably be great for two people to share. The sides were also very well done. I enjoyed the pinto beans and potatoes. The tortillas were unexpectedly delicious, and the salsa bar was actually decadent instead of feeling like an afterthought! Inside and out, there was plenty of good seating available. I'd recommend this place for eating on your own, with friends and family, or for a date!

Wow! What a gem. Homemade tortillas are hard to come by in the PNW but man was this legit. Chicken was fall off the bone tender and delicious. Sides were tasty as heck. Icing on the cake, little to-go margaritas. Delish! 10/10 cannot wait to treat myself to this deliciousness on future Portland outings. YUM.

Small space inside but plenty of dog friendly patio and some shade. Chicken was perfectly seasoned and the pinto beans were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Perfectly cooked. The house sauces... amazing. I couldn’t pick one I liked better. The rice... dry and old. I could tell it had once had amazing flavor... when it was fresh. But, the rest of the meal and service was enough to keep it at 5 Stars. Will be back to enjoy the patio this summer!
