“Beautiful spot near Portland State university!
So glad we came in. We enjoyed a chicken tikka masala pizza and fabulous wings.
I can't say enough about the crispy soft crust on our pizza.
We loved every bite of it.
Thank you Rohit for your hospitality!“

“I really loved the wings and still do but after awhile the staff started being weird and the wings be really dry like they could be old or just fried too much… some the meat is so burnt there is no meat to really eat on the wing… this is new so I hope it doesn’t keep happening. This is my favorite wing spot! So I’m tryn to see if it changes.
The fried rice is good! The burger combo is fire and so are the fries.
Good food but they are not always kind to their long standing customers.“

“Been waiting to try this place FOREVER and was blown away by the food. Snow cheese drumsticks were perfect. Gochujang drumsticks almost as perfect, really nice crunch and tangy coating. Lots of attention to detail with the pickles and shredded greens on the side. Honestly though any place that hands you food service plastic gloves to eat your meal with is a win in my book, oh and our toddler loved it too! Bonus was reheating the chicken in our oven at home and broiling the snow cheese at the end. Got some crazy char and unlocked many new bonus levels of flavor. Oh and and gluten free items clearly marked with no reactions to any of the foods. Bangin!“

“This place is so good. I come a minimum of 2-3 times a month. I get the prime sweet hot spicy chicken meal. It comes with crispy chicken (that actually stays crispy when you get it to-go or have leftovers!) sauced in a fantastic sweet and spicy sauce, a side of the “prime” sauce (which is like a garlic ranch), delicious picked daikon and purple rice. It’s always packaged so beautifully and the staff are all very nice, you can tell they care about the product they serve.“

“Best lollipop chicken and garlic noodles in town!! Great friendly owners :)“
“Quit playing with their name! If you have 10-15$ you have a BAG of chicken and a couple drinks. Mojos (potato wedges) are cool too, I just don’t waste room on anything except chicken. One day you’ll learn just dump some hot sauce in the bag and shake it up at little bit. Extra napkins for sure. Only had to wait around for my order 1 time and it came out better than I’ve ever had it.“

“I visited here alone for my birthday, and the experience was wonderful. The staff were so kind and welcoming—they even surprised me with free French fries! It made me feel less lonely and was honestly one of the best gifts I received for my birthday.
Regarding the food, I ordered the Half and Half (Soy Garlic & King Spicy), and both were top-notch. I also tried the new Cheese Wings, which were perfectly savory and crunchy.
I’ll definitely be back for the food, the service, and the genuine kindness I felt here 🤍“

“Wow…what a great pizza! It’s definitely worth the trip! We had it last night and will definitely be doing that again! So many options, reasonable prices, and do not get me started on the taste! Support this local, PDX, small business. Their pizza is sooo much better than the commercial guys! And we love pizza! Hit up a delivery service if ya can’t make it there and have them bring it to you! It’s worth it. I promise!“

“Comfort food. Flavor bombs in every bite. Growing up as a kid it was always a disappointment going to a restaurant and the food isnt as good as what you get at home when your Asian. This place is like going home to my dad cooking dinner or visiting an auntie who says i love you by making all your favorite foods. Staff is friendly. Bathroom is always clean.“

“Some of the best thai food I've had in Portland. Got ol' faithful vegan pad thai and it did not disappoint. Veggies were cooked perfectly, sauce was flavorful and wasn't greasy or dry. We got there right before closing time, and I was surprised to see the food cart seating area basically packed. Paid $14 for a decent size serving of pad thai and $2 for a cola. I don't have anything to complain about and joked to my partner that we need to move to the Alberta area for this pad thai specifically.“
“We just had the thanksgiving dinner and I was phenomenal!!!! I will definitely love this restaurant!!!“

My scheduled orders are never late, my food is always hot, and even when the restaurant is busy, the lobby and bathroom is frequently being cleaned and maintained by staff.

“I’m new to the Cheerful Tortoise and I’ve been driving by it most of my life. I had no idea that it’s been around for over 75 years which is pretty amazing… And it is right in the middle of Portland State University and is a home away from home for people who need a place to go on holidays or special occasions when everybody else has family. I love that it is a sports bar that allows kids and I look forward to taking them there for taco night and also for wings. I met Amy and heard her story in an interview… And feel like she is providing a place that is the heart of the downtown community in a very open way. I went last night for hip-hop night and the skill set of the DJs was off the chart… DJ Wicked and DJ Good Fortune are two of the nicest men I’ve met in a long time in the DJ world. They are an old-school staple and people have no idea how blessed we are to have their skills and music selection in our community. The staff at the restaurant everybody has been very kind and friendly to me. Everybody that was in the restaurant the two times I’ve been there seem to truly enjoy themselves and there were families with kids along with people playing pool and lottery in the back. It kind of feels like a hobbit bar because of its age….. I like it. It deserves my patronage and you can feel the history in it. I really dig how it feels. Nothing like a good old dive bar from old Portland… I’m a little late, figuring it out but with their happy hour specials and their drink night specials this is a place I can afford. It’s pretty evident that the people leaving reviews on here are using the cancel culture tactics which is very tired. I was actually one of the people who also complained about what the Portland Pickles were doing and was grossly offended by all of it. It had nothing to do with drag. It had everything to do with kids putting dollar bills in the thong of a pickle that was dressed like a stripper and the penis that was coming out of some of the images talking about Uranus. I immediately withdrew my child from Baseball camp and want nothing more to do with the organization. It’s embarrassing. The people leaving these reviews are sick and mean and hateful. These are not honest reviews. It’s just a testimony of people operating at a lower level who enjoy hating others = the exact thing they’re complaining about. The people who yell from the mountain topped the loudest are the ones who are actually displaying the behavior. I met Amy briefly and can tell immediately that as a mom, a business owner, and somebody who has spent her time at this bar…. you can feel the love she has for community. When I was at hip-hop night, there were people from all walks of life, genders, preferences, etc. I don’t know what these people are talking about but definitely don’t overlook a place that has history in Portland!“

“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“

“Went on Superbowl Sunday. Nice people, the Bartender was absolutely wonderful! First time visit, and I was made to feel very welcome in a bar that appeared to be regulars. Also, the $10-20 cost I provided reflects the fact that I was there for a couple. Also, I tip.“

“This is the best Popeyes in Portland and has been for a long time I grew up in the neighborhood. They have never failed me. They are locally known as the best Popeyes. thank you to the team for being so efficient and continuously being that way“
“My girlfriend and I stopped by the cart today and got the Street Mac. We both love a good cheesey and sorta soupy mac. The street mac is their take on Street Corn Elote with mac and cheese and it was DELICIOUS. We got just the regular portion and it was big enough on its own for us to share. Good price for it too, $15. The guy who was working also seemed really polite, my girlfriend, who ordered, said he was very formal and kind. We wanna come back and try the fried mac and cheese and check out even more of their other options.“

“Since they opened on SW Barbur I have been so pleased with everything. Former New Yorker and over 80s now, no one harder to please. Right?
Well after the first year and organizing service, bakers and phone staff the place aces it for me
The drivers too are so kind.
Sauce got a bit spicier that I prefer but all and all That man who started Dominos and I believe is still an executive of the chain; Can tip his hat
For fighting the way to success.
Good luck forever.

“Picked up an order at about a quarter after midnight 12/29. Blonde gal behind the counter making pizzas and delivery driver about 6ft tall with shoulder length-ish dark hair, both about 20, were both extremely sweet and friendly. I'd been working all day and received very bad medical news about my Dad, had a really horrible day and was putting off impatient energy, they were super forgiving and nice.“

“I called and ordered at 162nd in advance. When I got there, they were sending customers away and saying they didn't have certain things and others said the ebt was down. Yury, Tony and and lady that started with a Y stayed open four myself and AT LEAST four other customers. I LOVE the deep dish they made. They went above and beyond for multiple families that night.“
