I had high expectations since I love Mexican and breakfast dishes so pairing together is truly my favorite. I had been wanting to come here for the past few months. I'll tell you, I was blown away! Lucky for me I didn't visit on one of their insanely busy weekends. Romeo, one of the partners and the "R" in RJ, was serving and was such a humble and passionate owner. We chatted about his thriving business and how much care and emphasis they put into each of their dishes. I had the chili verde brisket omelette with hashbrowns and Romeo set me up with their homemade tortilla chips and an assortment of sauces, including mole and frijoles. So good! Everything was fantastic and they take pride in their presentation, too. A little while ago they expanded due to demand and they have a lot of natural light from a wall of windows. It's a very relaxed atmosphere. There are only tables here. No booths like you often find in family-style Mexican restaurants, but then, this is far from your typical Mexican diner and they make a point of proving it. Awesome food, awesome place, awesome owner and staff!

RJ Skillets is the best brunch I've had in quite some time! Went around noon on a Sunday and the wait wasn't bad at all, super quick service, decent selection, and delicious food! Inside was clean and cozy, and the tres leches was SO good!

I've wanted to try here for a while. I finally got a chance and was not disappointed. The restaurant is rustic and a little industrial. The service is good. I ordered the chorizo omelette and my husband the breakfast burrito with sausage. Both were good but I loved burrito. And to be honest, I'm not a burrito fan. Usually it's a big mess and filled with filler. Not this one, perfectly fluffy scrambled eggs, plenty of breakfast sausage and lots of cheese. The tortilla even tasted better than usual. Next time, I will order this. They also serve it with black beans and three types of salsa. Great price, great food.

First let me say that I am overjoyed after finishing my meal here at RJ Skillets. My experience was AMAZING!! My food was INCREDIBLE!! I ordered the veggie omelette and added bacon and when I tell you it exceeded my expectations I mean just that! Every bite put a smile on my face. It was cooked to perfection, seasoned very well and the veggies were fresh and delicious! I am so happy I found this place I will NOT be going back to Dennys after this experience. The customer service was great, very welcoming and attentive. The vibe was comforting and peaceful with lovely music playing. I am thoroughly impressed and wish this business much as this is what you call QUALITY FOOD MADE WITH LOVE!!! Their prices are very reasonable as well leaving way for a much deserving tip lol.. I Will be bringing my kids back and telling everyone I know about this wonderful place! GOD BLESS YOU RJ SKILLETS and Thank you for the delicious pancake too! Keep up the great work

RJ Skillets delivers American style breakfast with Oaxacan flair. The dishes are presented beautifully. Coffee is very tasty. Prices are decent for what you get. Service is very attentive with refills of coffee and water. There is a Christmas Tree after Valentines Day but I'll let it slide because the meat, cheese and eggs in this omelette are cooked perfectly. Salsa is the perfect accompaniment. My wife is quite fond of her French Toast.

We started with chips and salsa, and then Miki tried the breakfast burrito and I had the breakfast tostada with carnitas. I also had the Bloody Maria, as their take on it sounded really good and Miki had the Piña Jaritos. Drinks and chips arrived very quickly. The chips were house-made, as were the salsas which were very tasty and there were 3 of them with a diversity of heat and flavor.They also mixed together well to achieve a very tasty concoction. The Bloody Maria is for those like me who enjoy more than the usual spice and this did not disappoint! The flavor was great and it had almost a small appetizer's worth of veggies marinating in there which also tasted great. Soon after, arrived the mains. Miki's burrito was... well... pretty much that. She could only finish about 1/3 of it in a testament to its size. Flavor was good, but really, it was a boring choice. My tostada had some undeclared dairy, but I powered on. Every once in a while, it's worth the risk to your GI tract . Carnitas are almost a bellwether for a Mexican restaurant. If they are good, so's the restaurant, if they are dry, chunky, tough... well, so is the restaurant. These were moist and properly slow cooked. I'd have appreciated a little time on the flat top to crisp up the outside, and add a bit of texture and char. The fried egg was good and created the desired sauciness that pulled everything together into a very flavorful whole. Overall, I was pretty happy. This is better than the average roadside taqueria in TX and as good as Jorge's or Ninfa's. It's not up there with the absolute best, which for me at this moment in Portland is Ki'ikibaa who also have Cochinitas Pibil, which was sadly not on the menu here.

The service was good. The food was super fast. The facility was well kept and stocked. I recommend the green chili brisket it was awesome

I just recently noticed that the hours changed, so they open now at 8:00 which is my weekend preference. Upon arrival, I see that they have expanded their seating area. It is large, comfortable, clean and well lit. I pushed myself to try something other than their amazing mole enchiladas- so I opted for the chilaquiles with red sauce and steak. I am not going to say it was better, but it was extremely good. I am already thinking of my return trip.

We absolutely loved this place! The food was really tasty and authentic. The chilaquiles were spicy and the tortillas still had a crunch to them. I added egg whites on top and they were so fluffy. My husband got the mole enchiladas stuffed with carnitas and they were delicious. The mole definitely tasted home made. We also had micheladas and a tequila cantarito and the drinks were both amazing. I didn't get a picture but the pancakes were also delicious. I was not a big fan of the churros because they had a strawberry filling and I found them too sweet for my liking. The service was great! We had multiple servers check on our table multiple times. We sat outside and the weather was perfect. We will 100% be back!

The food surpassed my expectations. We had breakfast mole enchiladas and a breakfast tostada with birria, both of which come with eggs to order on top. I haven't had mole sauce this delicious in a long time. It was the perfect balance of sweet and bitter, with strong cinnamon and other spice notes. The tostada was crispy and topped with crema and cabbage, and the birria was braised in a green chili sauce which was a dream. The restaurant was eerily quiet for the Sunday before Labor Day, but we had the place mostly to ourselves. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, and the interior is decorated with art and maps centering around Oaxaca. Our server was obviously new and in training, but was friendly and eager to do well. I tried to order my eggs poached, which threw him off because there wasn't a button for it on the ordering screen, so I went with over easy. I'm confident the chef could have made a poached egg, as the over easy were perfectly cooked, but I didn't think pushing on it was worth the stress to the new server :) Other staff were friendly and attentive, so our coffees and waters never went empty. I would love to come back, for any meal any time of day.
