From the local food press
- Soul Food
Portland's most recognized Southern and soul food kitchen, built around crispy buttermilk fried chicken served with a sweet potato waffle. Fried green tomatoes, grits, and a weekend Bananas Foster French toast round out a menu that draws lines at both locations.
Picks from Willamette Week and Portland Mercury
- Fried Chicken
Screen Door built its reputation on buttermilk-battered fried chicken stacked tall on a sweet potato waffle, a weekend draw with an hour-plus wait. The dish anchors both the original Kerns location and the Pearl District's Screen Door Eastside, two of the busiest Southern kitchens in the city.
Picks from Portland Monthly
- Cajun
Screen Door is a Portland Southern-comfort institution whose sprawling menu carries Creole-leaning plates alongside its signature fried chicken and waffles. The Kerns original and Pearl District Screen Door Eastside both draw long weekend waits, a staple of the city's Southern and Louisiana-adjacent cooking.
