"My favorite breakfast / brunch place in Portland! The staff are so friendly and welcoming. The ambiance is cozy and inviting. Plenty of tables for groups of various sizes. Creative Balkan-inspired breakfast and brunch classics with unique cultural specialties as well. Favorites include the Parzhen (fried eggplant); Eggs Panagura; and Shakshuka with kyufte sausage. Everything on the menu is delicious! Coffee and made-to-order drinks are tasty and beautifully presented. The staff here go above and beyond to deliver exceptional service, quality, and experience. I am so lucky to come here regularly!"

"Everything was delicious and cooked perfectly! We even got a latte and chai and they were better than most coffee shops. Gavyn is one of the best servers I've ever had at a restaurant and will definitely be back. One of Portland's most slept on brunch spots."

"My boyfriend was born and raised in Bulgaria. We stopped by Nom Cafe for brunch on New Years Day and were very impressed by the food. The kyufte and lutenitsa hit very close to home for him. The lutenitsa is the best I have been able to find outside of Bulgaria. The ambience of the restaurant is very cute and welcoming, and the service was excellent as well."

"I cannot speak highly enough of this establishment. I made a reservation for a group of foodies here in hopes to expand their brunch experience in Portland, and the service we were offered was above and beyond. The food was delicious and everyone left with big smiles, the people serving us were patient with us as a big party with specific requests and were kind and gracious, we spoke with the partner of the owner and learned how special this menu is from a personal and cultural standpoint, and the atmosphere was warm and cozy but also fresh and clean. Overall, love Nom Cafe."

"Quaint little place. We went for Sunday brunch. It is small and tables pretty close together, but they do at least take reservations so that’s a good idea if you’re going. There is also a public parking lot which is nice since finding a parking space can be a challenge. Food was very good, somewhat standard breakfast but also unique. I believe I read that it is inspired by dishes from the Balkans. I had scrambled eggs with mushrooms and really liked it. Also had some of the waffle and that was delicious! The prices were very reasonable and the people were busy but very nice. I would definitely recommend checking it out! Very cool place."
