Mack & Dub's Excellent Chicken & Waffles, Portland

Mack and Dub’s pork-free, southern-influenced fare was created as an homage to the flavors of their childhood spent in the neighborhood where their two restaurants now stand. Mack & Dub’s Breakfast Club tends to morning and midday cravings with specialties such as fish and grits, pancakes, and Angus beef burgers. Just a few blocks up the road, Mack & Dub’s Excellent Chicken & Waffles serves a hearty menu of southern fried chicken, smoky kebabs, and chicken and waffles. Several dishes feature a barbecue sauce originated by Mack’s grandfather, whose grill prowess garnered him local fame and a restraining order from multiple cows.
