We have been ordering out from this place for years -- and we drive quite a ways for it -- and in the past they have been great. But word started getting out about them a few years ago and Luc Lac got very popular very quickly. Naturally, this restaurant capitalized on the increased business by increasing prices. Unfortunately, however, like so many other restaurants that enjoy a rapid increase in popularity and thus in business, this restaurant is now further capitalizing on its popularity via substantial decrease in quality. It's been going downhill since 2022, but we were unable to eat our last order at all and had to throw it all out because of the rotten rancid basil that was put into it. It was clear that whoever made our dishes (both of which included basil) knew the basil was bad and moldy and rancid because there is normally plenty of basil but this time only a small sprig with a few rotted moldy leaves were on it but it was just so rancid and so gross and stunk so bad and totally got all over the other food that we just couldn't eat any of it (except the rice in a separate container). We called immediately after we got home and discovered how gross our order was of course and we left a message about our experience with management but that was a couple weeks ago and we've never heard back. It will probably take a while for for the poor quality and higher prices to catch up and dissipate the popularity fad this restaurant still enjoys, but hopefully this review will help. There are a lot of great Vietnamese places in Portland, but you shouldn't bother with this one. Although Luc Lac was a great restaurant in the past, you're too late to enjoy that now. Luc Lac has gone bad.
