“It's one of the best bbq around! Anytime we go to the moda center, my wife and I share an entree. The portions are huge! I would highly recommend stopping here if you're nearby! We love the pulled pork and macaroni, but everything is so good there!“

“We ordered 2 pho orders togo. Prices are good, portions are good, pho broth is good, place is clean and friendly staff. The only thing that I really wish that was better was the brisket, it was thin, dry and tough also the tendon was a little tough compared to Pho Hung and Pho Oregon, it usually melts in your mouth. I would of gave it a 5 stars if the meat was tender. If the chef could work on not overcooking the meat then this would be my go to spot.“

“Excellent service and the best food!“

“Oh my goodness Wonderboy’s is good! We had a Taco with Brisket, Burnt Ends, and the Beeferton Cheese Steak. All of it was fantastic. The brisket fell apart in the your mouth and the flavor was perfect. All the fresh elements complimented the heavy element deliciously. The Mac and Cheese was Bomb! I didn’t expect it to be as good as it was. We devoured it 🤣 Of you are in Portland or in the neighborhood definitely stop by and give Wonderboy’s Smokestack a try! It is well worth it!“

“Definitely delicious BBQ!“

“Had the cashew/tofu/broccoli dish with brown rice. It was delicious! I make sure I stop there whenever I'm in Portland. Very friendly staff.“

“To the guy working the night of Tuesday, August 26:

You gave me two large soft serves COVERED with Frosted Flakes. I order this delicious treat from Hunker Down often, but this one was special. The amount of care taken to put Frosted Flakes on the bottom of the cup before the first layer of ice cream, then on top of that layer, then on top of the next layer of ice cream was heroic.

Thank you for your service. And for the ice cream.“

“All you can eat Korean barbecue.“

“soooo good!! My favorites are the brisket and beef bulgogi. The steamed egg is also amazing. Like a tiny souffle! various condiments... i think next time I'll do a la carte of the meat portions. mostly because after two rounds of AYCE I'm overstuffed and no taking leftovers... can't wait to go back!“

“4.5 stars. Food was delicious and flavorful. We loved the chili oil too. Singapore noodles had a large portion. We also got egg noodle with pork and duck. Both meats were so tasty. Only complaint is that the duck meat was half cold and half warm“

We have had the absolute pleasure of working with Mississippi Delta on quite a few events and we are always excited to work those events with them. You will be blown away:-)“

“We had J&L cater our 130 person wedding with two choices of Meats and 3 sides. The whole process with them went so smoothly, they delivered our food timely and we received TONS of great reviews on the food. Their catfish was AMAZING and the corn bread and green beans with bacon were a hit. If I ever had to do another large event they will be number one choice. thank you guys so much for taking our wedding to the next level! Taylor and James Roberts“

“Good bq w beer and reasonable prices 🐷 Cannot wait to get the meatball sandwich or the Mac & cheese. Best coleslaw 😋“

“JJs is bomb. Came here after a long day at the river, and it hit the spot. As a Louisiana native, it was nice to get a taste of home. The customer service alone is worth the visit, but the food is awesome too. I haven't found good brisket in Portland until this place! Stoked to find this place for a nice convo and delish meal.“

“first time here and i absolutely loved it!! i ordered takeout but when i went in to pick it up, the atmosphere was super warm and cozy. the food was hot, fresh, and delicious. i got the brisket with mild bbq, pork spare ribs with sweet bbq, mash potatoes and coleslaw. the mash potatoes were warm and the gravy was the perfect amount of savory. the coleslaw had just the right amount of sweetness, and the meat was seasoned and cooked to perfection. i will definitely be back!“
