About this business

One of the most popular restaurants in the city, The Country Cat Dinner House & Bar is perpetually buzzing with energy. There is something immensely likable about this eatery, starting from the strange mosaic cat that greets you at the door, right down to the fantastic home-style food. The daily brunch is one of the drawing cards, and it is quite easy to see why; who would turn down offerings like Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, smoked Steelhead Eggs Benedict and vegetarian white bean chili? Offerings like Red wine braised beef and ... read more

Whole hog, but not whole cow! – The first time four of us had dinner at The Country Cat, we thought the food was fresh, well-prepared, original, and very good. However, when two of us returned a second time, on a Friday evening, the restaurant was literally filled with families with young children, so it was noisier and a much less peaceful and relaxing atmosphere than during our first visit. Both of us ordered the hamburber---one medium rare, and the other medium. Both arrived grey all the way through--medium well to well d... read more

Great brunch! – Wonderful steak and eggs! The kids thoroughly enjoyed their food too! We live close to Hillsboro, so it's a bit of a hike for us to eat there, but we'll definitely return. It's that good!

Farm Fresh food – I love to eat here. You have to try this place, everything is made from scratch, even the ketchup. Best Ever : grits, mashed taters, pork belly, deviled egg, and more.... Oshkosh B'Gosh!

Varied menu – I ordered the duck, kale and potatoes dish and it was fine, a little skimpy on the duck and the potatoes were huge chunks, making up for the lack of duck on the plate. less potatoes, more duck, less vinegar and it would be fine. The espresso was stumptown, not bad. Will go back to try different things there

This friendly neighborhood diner serves up American comfort-food favorites. – In Short The Country Cat is a throwback to classic diners where folks ordered fried chicken from a booth by the window--but with an updated twist. Fried chicken is served with braised Bibb leaf lettuce and grilled sweet onion tossed with Tabasco vinaigrette. Another country favorite is Carlton Farms Whole Hog--rolled belly, brined chop and smoked shoulder with grits and camelized tomato. Weekend brunch offers daily benedicts and house-made granola.... read more

Great food, Friendly Staff! – When we showed up (about 8:00pm on a friday) it was pretty busy and the hostess said it would be an approximate wait of 30 minutes. We went up to the bar and had a couple drinks. About 15 minutes later were seated. We had the Carlton Farms Whole Hog and the Grilled Strawberry Mountain Beef, both were excellent. For dessert we had the Butterscoth Pudding (with chocolate chip cookies) and Jonagold Apple Pandowdy (with honey vanilla ice cream), which were also very good. Atmosphere was great, servi... read more

Food like I wish my mom would have made. – My husband and I went to The Country Cat for the first time on Saturday night. We were afraid we wouldn't be able to get a table because we hadn't made reservations but we were seated promptly in a nice booth. The service was absolutely excellent. The server was there when we needed him and gone when we didn't. We both enjoyed a Sierra Nevada Anniversary Ale on draught and the onion rings as an opener. The onion rings were thin sliced, crispy and just the right saltiness. For the ma... read more

Great Comfort Food – We finally made it to the Country Cat and what an experience! It's a lovely, warm room and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The onion rings were exceptional and easy to share among the four of us. Everything on the menu sounded amazing and made it hard to decide but we were all happy with our choices once our food came.Two of us went for the fried chicken with braised greens, (outstanding!), while one of us had the bacon wrapped trout, (moist and delicious with delicato squash rings and chantere... read more

The Country Cat, Montavilla's Newest Treasure – An intimate environment, friendly and fun staff. Since it's opening in my neighborhood I have become somewat of a regular at the Country Cat. Enough so that Adam, the owner, will wave at me if he catches me walking by, which shows their neighborhood spirit and that I am not just a number. I enjoy sitting at the Chef's Bar and watching all the great foods prepared with skill and the amazing synchronicity as multiple plates are prepared together. It's a real joy to watch. I've pi... read more
