Tilt {Portland, OR}

Last week, my husband and I took our kiddos to eat at a restaurant called Tilt in Downtown Portland. I’ve heard about this place from a few people and after seeing a picture of a burger from Tilt on instagram from one of my friends, it sealed the deal! So off we went…..We actually went in between the lunch and dinner rushes right at 2pm so we could take our time and I could take all the pictures I wanted to. We had this huge booth all to ourselves. Cha-ching! I ordered a bunch of food and I’m pretty sure the lady taking my order thought I was nuts, but it’s all good 🙂 Hello biscuits and gravy. This was awesome. Very bacony…which is never really a problem.
I ordered this Fat Farmer Burger too….It was a southwesterny veggie burger. Not my favorite, but good. My husband ordered The Big Tilt Burger. It was huge and yes that’s the edge of a fried egg you’re seeing. Oh, and also had lots of bacon 🙂 Since we went here, my husband has become obsessed with fried chicken biscuit sandwiches so he ordered this too.Hello lover! Out of the main courses we got, this one was my favorite. Seriously. Fried chicken on a soft buttery biscuit is amazing. Their fries were better than the average fry, but the tilt sauce was what made them surprisingly incredible. I usually HATE fry sauce, but this stuff was YUM.Also incredible: their homemade tots…aka fried mashed potato balls. The tilt sauce made these for me.We got the cheddar stuffed kind, but am regretting not trying the jalapeño or bacon kind.

Next time? I think yes.But, my favorite food here that I tried were these onion rings. I am an onion ring LOVER and these were just bliss. BLISS I TELL YOU. Again, that tilt sauce took these over the top.And because my life revolves around the word GLUTTON, we got dessert too. This was tied for my very favorite thing I ate next to those darn onion rings; Lemon sour cream pie with a whole bucket of whipped cream. Brooke and I were in heaven!! It was seriously so dreamy!! Pretty sure I am soul sisters with those bakers at Tilt. *Also the pie crusts are perfection…crumbly, tender and so flakey!!*My husband got the marionberry pie and it was good too, but had nothing on that lemon pie!!

We had an amazing meal and almost rolled out of the restaurant we were so stuffed. I’m dying to go back to try more burgers, biscuits sandwiches and pie and so is my husband!

I’d also like to point out that the staff were really really friendly and thought my kids were cute, so naturally I’m like “lets go back tomorrow!”

But they forgot to bring us our pie….twice which was kind of surprising considering they weren’t busy. Eventually though, they wrapped it up for us and threw in a slice of lemon poppyseed loaf which was pretty good, but nothing compared to the pie. It was more of a kind gesture which we appreciated.
