50 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Portland

“Get the PORK BELLY SANDWICH and the KILLER FRIES guys!!!! Let’s support this family owned business because it’s worth it!?Sandwich: Pork Belly is on a different level (Also recommend Lemongrass pork/chicken) The carrot and cucumber daico is so different than other places, which is a plus point from me. 10/10?Killer Fries: I found this on delivery app but couldn’t find it on the menu in store. I’m pretty sure it’s still available as a “secret” menu. It has fries, bulgogi meat, and 3 kinds of sauce. You have to give this a try!!! 10/10They also make their own hot sauce which is FIREEEEE?. Like what’s better than fresh sauce compare to on-the-market sauceI got the combo which is the sandwich, potsticker, and thai tea and everything is phenomenal. I didn’t expect it to be this good and you can feel the freshness of everything. I love family owned business and this place has prove its worth. Will come back for sure?“

“We came here accidentally due to Apple Maps telling us it was way closer than it actually was, but what great place. We park and on the way to the door they are pumping the delicious smell of the grill right over you. The staff was polite and funny. Even the music was late nineties alternative which being 43 is perfect! We ordered a single, a double, chili cheese curly fries, deluxe curly fries (cheese, sauce, onions, and bacon), a kids burger, and a chocolate shake. Every item, no, every bite was stellar. My seven year old son said it was the best burger he ever had. 5/5 highly recommend. Honestly couldn’t have been better.“

“The most amazing Eastern European food I’ve ever had. It’s definitely worth a try. The guy working the stand was very personable and served me his favorites. Definitely was not disappointed. Food is high quality. Genuinely homemade. Secret ingredient was love and passion. Portion sizes are pretty big.“

“Absolutely fantastic falafel and great service! I love the people that work here they’re always very friendly and kind. I love both their falafel wraps and their falafel gyros, both are delicious in their own right. I’m also a big fan of their hummus, I’m picky about hummus but theirs is delicious!!!“

“My family and I had lunch here on Sunday this last weekend, the food was amazing, the staff/owners clearly put a great deal of effort and care into the preparation of the food and it shows. They were so welcoming and attentive; the food was fantastic and portions plentiful. Will definitely be coming back. Thanks!“

“The most smashed smash burger I've had in Portland. Sure Shot serves incredibly well-seasoned patties in your classic smash burger from factor—it's exactly what I want executed at the highest level. You can't go wrong with the classic, but their specials are also always delicious.“

“Some of my favorite smashburgers in town! They are popular so expect a line and show the staff some grace if they are short or stressed. They are great people and the food is worth it. Pop into Level for a beer while you wait. Vegan and Gluten free options as well.Vegetarian options: Beyond meat optionKid-friendliness: Outdoor food-court style cart group, pinball inside Level brewing, across from Voodoo Donuts for an after lunch sweet treat for the kiddos.“

“Absolutely delicious chicken! Just the right amount of crispy-ness and crunch. Awesome sauces to try and something for everyone's taste. We've tried them all and keep going back to the bulgogi. But the garlic parmasean (one of the new offerings) is a new favorite! It's a bonus that besides the great food that the staff is friendly, the service is fast and the restaurant is clean and tidy. I'd say that the only downside is the size of the establishment. If you have more than 2-3 people, get the food to go. It's too small to eat there. There are some picnic tables outside but unless it's summer, it's not really feasible to utilize them.“

“I'm always on the lookout for a good noodle place and this place exceeded my expectations. I had stopped in here for dinner before heading over to the movies. My go-to is usually a spicy ramen, but decided to give my iron stomach a rest for the night. I did add the chili oil to it, but it wasn't overbearing. I'd absolutely come back here when I'm back in Portland.“

“I have stopped by this resturant on several occasions for food deliveries. I was finally able to stop by and boy was I Glad. I love supporting local businesses, especially mom and pop restaurants. I ordered their Taco special...2 Carnitas and 1 Lengua. Fresh ingredients ..good flavor and excellent service. I will be back! Thank you for your delicious food. Stay blessed.“

“Wow ! Portland is really stepping up their game when it comes to Chinese food!!! I had never tried it, but these traditional Chinese baozi were so juicy, spiced to perfection, delicious, and full of meat and the Jia Zhang mian were just like they were in Beijing. I ordered delivery and don't know if they have dine in. I will go back again soon! They also have frozen baozi and jiazi to boil or steam at home! Can't wait to order through their menu!“

“I stumbled across this gem on my first night visiting Portland! The food is solid, but what really blew me away is the ambience. My friends and I received attentive and diligent service, although there was only one guy working the counter and kitchen when we arrived. From hot dogs and fries, to mozzarella sticks and more, Zack’s Shack has a lil something for most. Not to mention they have a late night bar, a moody patio filled with classic games, and trippy artwork throughout the spot!! Totally would recommend this place to anyone in town :)“

“So disappointed... That I didn't know about this place sooner!! Last night my husband told me he had NEVER eaten a gyro. I knew I had to correct this immediately. So, I started looking for gyros near me. Now, since he's never tried one, I didn't want him to have a bad first experience that would put him off of them forever since I enjoy them so much. I chose this establishment based on very high google reviews (5 stars) and because it's so close to where we live (5 mins). This place has gone beyond expectations! The food is amazing! Perfect blend of delicious spices and ingredients. HUGE amount of food. It was so delicious that I scarfed it down so fast I got sauce up my nose. I'm so happy that we found this little gem. We will be eating here regularly from now on. Thank you, Gyro Grill Kabob!!! ❣️“

“I discovered my new Favorite food in the Universe when I was today hours old: momos!Orig from the monasteries of Tibet/Nepal… if you can imagine Polish pierogis & pelmini having a hot steaming sweaty 3-way w/ Chinese xiao long Bao all night while the dogs watch…you might have an idea what I just Xperienced going down my pie hole. And at only $12/order, they’re a Steal.“

“If you've ever hesitated to brave the infamous line at Raising Cane's in Pioneer Square Mall, let me assure you, the wait is worth it.As a chicken aficionado, I've sampled my fair share of tenders, but none compare to the crispy, flavorful perfection found at Raising Cane's.From the moment you step into the line, you're greeted with the enticing aroma of freshly fried chicken. Despite the initial hesitation due to the line's length, the anticipation only adds to the excitement.Once you sink your teeth into those golden-brown tenders, it's a taste sensation like no other. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch followed by juicy, tender chicken bursting with flavor. And let's not forget the fries – perfectly seasoned and crispy, they're the ideal accompaniment to the main event.But what truly sets Raising Cane's apart is their signature Cane's sauce. Tangy, creamy, and downright addictive, it elevates the entire meal to new heights. Whether you're dipping your tenders, fries, or even the bread (which deserves its own shoutout for being surprisingly delicious), every bite is a symphony of flavors.Raising Cane's in Pioneer Square Mall is a chicken lover's dream come true. Despite the wait, the impeccable quality of the food and the irresistible allure of that legendary Cane's sauce make it a dining experience that's worth every minute in line. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and indulge in the crispy goodness that awaits at Raising Cane's. You won't be disappointed.“

“The absolute best place to get food at the mall. Real authentic food and absolutely tasty! This is the only place that has ever got me to enjoy spinach. They're the friendliest and most down to earth owners. If you want to try something different this is the spot! Yes, free samples too!“

“The cashier was the friendliest since I arrived at the restaurant.Dietary restrictions: I ate a super cheese with lettuce and the very kind person left it for me at my table. I really appreciate the attention of the person who brought my food to my table, his name was Vicente“

“I absolutely recommend this place the food is amazing & I love that the owner has made it a policy if a homeless person is hungry to knock at the backdoor they will feed you because he believes no one should ever have to starve God bless you & I wish more places were like thisParking: There is a very small parking lot with minimal parking sometimes you may have to park a couple blocks away & walkWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Great to have a salad option in the airport! Ingredients were fresh and topping options are expansive. Really appreciated two vegan protein options- vegan chik’n and tofu. 4 different vegan dressing options was nice too, though most were olive oil or vinegar heavy. I found the pricing pretty fair and I’ll definitely be back when passing through this terminal.“

“A real gem in the university district! Having been to Hawaii and eaten authentic plate lunch I can assure you the other reviews are incorrect. The restaurant is clean and spacious. The food is prepared well, tastes excellent and is priced very reasonably for the large portions. Something hard to find in the area. Another rarity is the owners take the time to get to know their customers. You can expect to be asked if you want "the usual" if you dine more than a few times. It is refreshing to see hard working small business owners still making it work.“

“I’ve been coming in here for over 8 months while working in the area, Kyle is awesome he remembers the regulars and their orders and he’s extremely efficient and multitasks as good as anyone I’ve seen! This doesn’t take away from the rest of the staff because they may be the busiest store I’ve ever seen! This is the best JM I’ve been in and I travel the country for work so I’ve seen many! Keep it up“

“Unassuming Mom and Pop Burger Shop at 136th/Division in SE. Go past it every day on my way home, kept telling myself to check it out, finally did. Stopped in around 9pm, they close at 10. Service was fast and friendly, quite a few folks in there having some ice cream on a rainy Thursday night. 4 on the atmosphere as it was a bit bright, especially after a long day, so that's the only blemish. Had a Maui Burger and Fries. Hit the spot, Burger overall was good and juicy, the pineapple helped, fries were fresh and hot. Great shake selection too, only thing missing was a coffee shake on the menu. I'll be back. ??“

“It was open late, which was good for a late flight coming in after checking into your hotel. Food takes some time, so it’s not a place to expect fast food. Falafel and chicken gyro are amazing. Price is expected for its large size. Maybe they could offer mini sized ones in the future.Kid-friendliness: They do have hot dogs, chicken tenders/strips and fries for the simpler humans“

“First time ordering, got it delivered with GrubHub. Heard they had a dedicated fryer and gf buns! Was very impressed. Fries were still golden hot and crispy on arrival. Burger was hot and delicious. The cheese is extra good and they use real bacon. Not the microwaves stuff. The passionfruit fizzy water is delicious but healthy tasting, as it is not overloaded with sugar. This is way better than McDonald's!“

“First off, delicious pizza! Definately a go to for my kids and I. Second, the employees working tonight were fantastic! Very friendly, kind and compassionate! Y'all were great and made my stressful night end on a good note with a couple of happy full belly babies.. I dont want to write a book so I'll try to keep it short and sweet.? Thank you both for going above and beyond by getting my phone back to me and for remembering what I had intended to order and having it ready to go for me and my kids. It was a very kind gesture and You went above and beyond and I appreciate you both and am super greatful to have lost my phone near y'all lol. It Could have been way worse which honestly is exactly what I was afraid of but instead I got blessed with 2 amazing people who ultimately made my night. You guys rock.. Didnt catch your names but You know who you are ? THANK YOU!!!“

“I was craving Mac & Cheese, and I happened to stumble upon this place. I was not disappointed. I ordered just a plain garlic chicken cheddar Mac. The cheese is rich. It's a solid choice for Mac cravings. Cool little spot too. There are other choices as well. Great atmosphere.“

“I've have to apologize to Angie at the dog house as I've been eating at this amazing food cart for over a year and have not posted. If your are in SE Portland & 50th and want an off the charts hot dog, burger or a home made burrito - you must stop and eat !!!Their home made burgers and their sauces are scrumptious - the hot dogs are also yummy and of course their breakfast burritos are really really superb!!Lastly you in Portland - don't forget to order their Tatar Tots Bon Appetite Ronn just Ronn The hole in the wall food guy“

“I went here after a concert and the food was DELICIOUS! I got the deluxe falafel wrap and my friend got the regular falafel wrap. The sandwiches were big, filling, delicious, and hit the spot. Plus the ambiance of the square is beautiful and there's a covered seating area for when it's raining out.“

“Just got a personal Hawaiian. It did not survive the walk home. Very nice, a bit of spice in the sauce and it is a good Real American thin crust that can support the weight of its own toppings! I am saving their phone number as a contact!“

“ENGLISH:We invite you to eat at this place. It is a good place to spend with the family. I liked the service and personality of Reina Alvarado. She is a good worker and cook and kind to customers in general.ENGLISH:We invite you to eat at this place. It is a good place to spend with the family.

“This is a combination KFC A&W, which provides good variety. The neighborhood is kinda rough, and the employees usually seem tired. But the service is efficient, the food is good, the order accuracy is very high for fast food, and most importantly THE DRIVE THRU IS OPEN LATE.“

“Yes, they have breakfast pizza! But they weren't open for breakfast. Kinda odd. But overall I am a MOD fan.Vegetarian options: Just get a pizza without meat?Dietary restrictions: You pick what goes on your pizza?Parking: It's the airport. You have optionsKid-friendliness: Kinda...for an airportWheelchair accessibility: It is until you board the plane.“

“This is my new favorite place! Their bubble tea is amazing. Best I've ever had! Whatever tea you get order it with the popping bobas. They literally burst in your mouth with flavor. What are you doing reading this? You should be drinking bubble tea from Bubble Crunch!“

“Tecos is THE most important quick or late-night food option in SE PDX. hellishly reliable, you will never be disappointed by a dark drive-thru when Google says it's supposed to be open -- AND you'll get some of the dopest Mexican food in town. standouts are the #12 abobada, chili rellenos (either plate or burrito), and pastor. their rice and beans are so flavorful! veggies will be happy with their vegetarian burrito. honestly, half the time I just get the daily special for $8.99 and have always been so pleased with the deal I get.there are two phases of your life: BT and AT (before Tecos and after Tecos). I have been AT since 2016 and have never once disappointed. I want to personally thank the employees for ALWAYS being open when I really needed it -- which, of course, I do by leaving over 20% tip. I hope today becomes AT for you.“

“Chicken nuggets are good. The fries at this location seem to be not quite as good as the location in my home town.The single cheeseburger is good, but I long for the days of 'hot & juicy'. Today's Wendy's burgers have lost their touch regarding hot & juicy.Parking: Parking lot is very accessible.“

“Today was my first visit to Popeyes, the location was clean and nice, the stuff was welcoming and friendly.We ordered via the app to pickup at the location, wait for 5-7 min, the food was great packed. When we came home everything was still warm and tasty Thank you for keeping this spot so nice and welcoming, 100% come back when visit the area againP.S. I’m not a big fan of chicken sandwiches, but the highly recommend the one with cheese and bacon“

“I'm generally not someone who wants to have a meal without meat in it. Whole bowl had the shortest line when I dropped by the pod one day, and I decided to give it a shot. I've been hooked ever since. This is a weekly stop for me. Great food, healthy, and a good price, what's not to like? The person who runs the cart is really nice and friendly as well.“

“Best of the area, I would eat here everyday. This place has been a locals favorite for a long time. The staff for excellent and go beyond in many ways.They take good ingredients, prepare them well, and present them in a way that presents their best individual qualities.“

“Burgerville always satisfies! Locals & transplants MUST indulge, visitors MUST try!Don't forget to order an extra side of Burgerville Spread, for your fries, onion rings... or whatever...I bought a jar of spread in 2009 to make macaroni salad with & haven't had better mac salad since. Amazin'.Vegetarian options: Veggie burger on the menu, with customizable options.“

“Thank You for opening a Jersey Mike’s in the neighborhood .You have to appreciate a place that their food they serve looks like their menu and commercials.I see other reviews and they complain about the wait time.Believe me it’s worth the wait.There’s a Subway down the street with nobody in line , lousy customer service and if you enjoy a flat sandwich that taste like cardboard You can get it quick.You know Charles Barkley and Patton aren’t eating it ,just cashing the checks.If they had to remake Happy Gilmore today ,Adam Sandler would be holding a Jersey Mikes Sub.“This one’s for you Grandma”.“

“My night shifts at Amazon mean eating out at odd hours. Thankfully, Jamie at Carl's Jr. on 8205 SE Rhine St, Portland, OR, has been a game-changer. She nails our orders every time, even with my wife's custom requests. Fast, friendly, and always spot-on, Jamie's service makes our unusual mealtime a highlight. Big thanks to Jamie for making late-night dining so much better.“

“This review is to highlight the excellent service received by manager MAIRA and her awesome crew at Carl's Jr. (102nd and Halsey.)Friendly atmosphere and clean dining room, along with prompt service with a smile! A cravings go to place that deserves Two Thumbs up!!!?? Way up!!“

“Our family stopped by this Popeyes’s on our way home as we were passing by the area and the kids were hungry. We used the app to order and the food was ready very quickly (well under 10 minutes). The staff was very responsive (which is rare nowadays at fast food places as they all moved to online ordering). In addition the chicken and the fries were tastier than the Popeyes we frequent near our home. The only two minor downsides are that the parking was very limited (maybe 10-12 parking spaces in total, so we almost couldn’t park) and the dining room is very small so maybe there are 3-4 tables that fit a party of 4. But those are minor complaints and if you are using the drive through or take out, these shouldn’t impact you too much. Recommended for quick fast food (we all know that Popeyes blows the other national fried chicken chain out of the water).“

“The pizza was pretty decent, not a ton of flavor in the sauce, but it was good enough.The music was so loud we had a difficult time hearing the questions from the lady taking our order, and she obviously had a hard time hearing our order, as the sauce on 1 pizza was not what we ordered.“

“I had a fantastic experience at this pizza store! The pizza was served fresh and piping hot, with a variety of delicious sauces to choose from. The comfortable ambiance added to the overall enjoyment. Highly recommended for a great pizza outing!“

“This is hands down the best Jimmy John's location in the entire Portland area. On my most recent visit I was greeted with friendly smiles and waves the moment I approached the door. I thought there would be a line at noon on a Wednesday, but the cashier was too quick! It's like he knew what I wanted! The sandwich crew was firing out sandwiches so freaky fast it felt like they're coming from a T-shirt cannon at a Blazers game. You can tell each sandwich artist really takes pride in their craft. There was such a good vibe in the shop it made me wish I hadn't ordered to go. I even received a hearty fist bump from a delivery driver on my way out. Every ingredient on my #15 was appropriately portioned especially the extra mayo and extra hot pepps. It was so beautiful I chugged it before I could take a picture. Well done Lloyd center JJs“

“The folks here have always been friendly and helpful for the 10+ years we've been eating here. Definitely a go-to spot for us for quick Mexican food.Vegetarian options: Most everything can be made vegetarian, and I think now they have plant-based meat options.“

“We love this place. The food is always excellent, and the salsa bar adds some variety and customization for each diner. The food is fresh and plentiful and cooked perfectly. The service was great and given professionally and with a smile. The restaurant was spotlessly clean and very well lit. I can't wait to go back.“

“This particular location is extra awesome! Friendly, funny, totally welcoming vibe and most importantly… these guys crafted me the actual Perfect Sandwich. They recommend the freshest bread and customized each sandwich just how I wanted them. It was the *exact* thing I needed after a long day at work. Thanks for everything!!“

“The Burger was good except that it did have a lot of lettuce as others have stated. And the pickles are extra long too. But otherwise it was good. The fries were cooked to perfection. There is two televisions that have ESPN on them. Maybe next time I'll get the regular cheeseburger.Kid-friendliness: It's very comfortable to bring your family there.Wheelchair accessibility: It's an open space, so maneuvering a wheelchair will be no problem.“
