“This was my first time in Portland and I had heard about the phenomenal food truck culture in the city. This one was my absolute favorite of them all!

Kafta house is a “Mom & Pop” owned food truck offering middle eastern/Mediterranean cuisine. The owners are very warm people and treat their customers like family who have come over for dinner.

I had the lamb gyros with fries. The lamb meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned tastefully, as were the fries. I’ve eaten many gyros in my life, but have to say this one was my favorite.

The cardamom chai was the perfect ending to a great meal. Thank you to the owners for the most memorable dining experience during my stay in Portland! I wish this food truck existed in the city where I live. I will stop by again if I come back to Portland.“

“The lime sauce on their crispy chicken bento is absolute perfection, as is everything on their menu. Been eating here a long time and will continue to do so <3“

“This cart is awesome and has good food! I havetried their Chicken Tacos ( with everything ), Veggie Burritos ( with Xtra Cheese :) ) Bean & Cheese Burritos, Quesadilla (Chicken & Cheese Ones) and everything was YUMMY Delicious no lie! I am super picky too, so saying I love this cart is a BIG thing for me to say! Also come by to support LOCAL business rather than going to a big chain restaurant... They follow all COVID-19 Guidelines too! :)“

“I purchased lunch for my team at work and every one of us couldn’t get enough. To quote one person “it’s like a flavor party in my mouth!” Is an understatement. All of the flavors were perfectly paired, and not overpowering with one or the other. I can’t wait to get more!“

“I would recommend thai food truck. It won’t disappoint you. This is thai street food style very authentic. So yummy and the owner so friendly. อรอาหารอร่อยมากครับ แนะนำให้ไปอุดหนุนกันเยอะๆ เจ้าของร้านเป็นกันเองมากๆ ขอบคุณสำหรับอาหารไทยรสชาติเยี่ยมอร่อยๆ ครับ“

“Currently they are running a special called the Mariners Burger, which mimics the classic Seattle Dog in smash burger form. It's amazing, and absolutely inspired. However I'm not just here to write about the exceptional food this place serves, but rather the literal magic they deliver:

So, yesterday (10/17/2025 for future record) I, a lifelong Mariners fan, picked up said inspired burger on my way home from work to watch game 5 of the ALCS. For those who don't know, this is an historically rare feat for the Mariners, and as excited as I was to watch the game I was also starving.

Fast forward to my arrival home--the M's are down 2-1 and are once again beginning to look like a team that forgot how to play baseball. I sit on my couch exasperated, next to my dog with burger in hand. First bite: delicious, creamy, jalapeno spicy, CAL (BIG DUMPER) RALEIGH HITS A HOMER TO TIE THE GAME! I lose it, go absolutely ecstatic, dog is barking, etc. I realize I need to stand up and get some water so I do that. Next thing that happens, Blue Jays load the bases as I'm processing all of this sensory overload. I realize I'm once again starving and take a second bite--EUGENIO SUAREZ GRAND SALAMI! This is not hyperbole, nor lie, both bites led to some of the most impactful and momentous events in Seattle Mariners baseball history. My soul left my body, my brain still doesn't function right, and this morning I still believe that this burger made history happen last night through osmosis and magic.

Tomorrow is game 6 of the ALCS. Will definitely be buying another burger, maybe 5 for it.“

“All the breakfast sandwiches are 🔥!Best in the PNW!!!!“

“Had for the first time today! So good !!“

“Beat tacos this side of the Mississippi!!!! No joke this taco place has the very best flavors and it’s meat are perfectly cooked! I totally recommend piñata takos!!!“

“This is our favorite food truck area. My partner and I both love Mole Mole, especially. So many options for vegans! Also, the price/value of portions at all places we’ve tried is great. Lots of seating but it gets very busy at typical meal times.“

“Great food, atmosphere and awesome service. 😋💕“

“We were downtown for the Starlight Parade with the kids and just happened to stumble upon the Midtown Beer Garden — what a lucky find! Tucked into this awesome little food cart pod in the heart of the city was Small Pharaohs, and let me tell you — it completely blew us away.

From the moment we walked up, the team was warm, welcoming, and super friendly, especially with my kids (which as any parent knows, makes a huge difference). We ordered a mix of plates and wraps — the lamb over rice was packed with flavor, and the chicken shawarma was so juicy and tender my kids devoured it without a second thought. The garlic sauce? Next level.

The vibe at Midtown was fun and family-friendly, with great energy from the festival crowd, and Small Pharaohs stood out not just for the food, but the service. It felt like they genuinely cared that we had a great experience — and we really did.

This was one of those unexpected finds that turns into a new favorite. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in downtown Portland. Highly recommend!“

“We stopped here while visiting from Chicago. We do not have food cart pods like this at home and I love the concept. This particular pod was among the two best that we visited. We had beer and Indian food and both were above average. I particularly liked the DIY, unpretentious demeanor of the eating space. It had less infrastructure than other pods but for me that was even better, in terms of staying true to the original concept and controlling costs. I just felt at home. Keep it up!“

“It’s pretty good as taco trucks go“

“I got the number 4 it was excellent and you get to pick your spice level even better I got spicy you have the option of medium, mild, spicy and one more extra or super hot I wish I would have gone spicier honestly very delicious and I will be back to try the other dishes 10/10 worth it money well spent nice and filling“

“100% reccomend. lamb shank was perfect. two entrees feed 4.“

“Dog what. First time trying. Got the carnitas, shrimp and lengua tacos like 5 mins ago and they’re all gone haha. Was too occupied to take a picture. Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had, and the value was insane. He loaded those bad boys up pretty fat while most taco places skimp on the meats. Jose (owner) was super enthusiastic to share his food and it shows in the food. For $2.50-3.50 a taco this place is at the top of my list.“

“I highly recommend the yellow curry soup ....it is delicious and has a nice bite! Pad Thai was awesome too!“

“Ordered online, the food and coffee were delicious! Got a Mom coffee, it was really good! Not sure what was in it because I didn't ask; it was sweet but not too sweet and had some other seasoning/flavor (light hazelnut or cinnamon). Latte was great. Deluxe bagel was very good and so was the plain bagel with cream cheese. Great price, great workers, we will def be back! Thank you.“

“Long live Ooh Pasta! I got the #4 peanut sauce dish and my husband got the #1 clam dish, both were 10/10! Fresh, perfectly cooked ingredients, the most delicious sauces made fresh to order, and big portions for the price. We used to come here often when we lived in the area, moved out of state many years ago but still have to come eat here whenever we’re in town!“

“I highly recommend 🙏the food is amazing thank you for the sinaloense burrito 🌯 is so amazing 🙏🙏🙏“

“Amazing little, literal, hole in the wall for some quickish eats. Food is fresh and on point and the staff is super friendly. What more is there? Highly recommend the Spicy Russian. The Pastrami is hard to beat at this price. $1 chips and sodas like the ole’ days. Do it!“

“I absolutely love their Thai tea!!!! It’s Only $3 😛 Everything that my co workers have tried they all loved it. I get the same thing every day and can’t get enough. They’re family owned and the flavors are to delicious. Super polite service. I’ll be back when I’m in town. Thanks for all of the good food 😃“

“it is in the heart of downtown a couple blocks from Powell Books in the beginning of the park block the most important it is clean and it's a good diversity of food cart they even have a double decker bus that serve coffee in the morning and beer and wine in the evening plenty of seating outside looking at the park block.“

“What a fantastic little gem of an Asian food truck in downtown! My husband and I ordered the teriyaki chicken and chicken yakisoba. I was floored by the amount of food you get for $10! Everything was so flavorful and delicious! Service was excellent. I was impressed that the truck was only run by one man --- and he really slayed in that kitchen! We will definitely be returning here to try more dishes soon!“

“This is half of the roast beef mushroom and Swiss sandwich. The other half I ate before I get a chance to take a picture. Ever since I moved to this area I have frequent chunky subs, food cart and truly the owners are awesome. The food is hot fresh and delicious every single time you eat it. The owners are incredibly kind. The food is very generously priced and you get a lot for what you pay for. The food is delicious. The sandwiches are good. The tacos and burritos are good. Their hot Cheeto elote is amazing.

The only sandwich I haven’t tried is the Philly cheesesteak cause I lived in Philly for 10 years and I just don’t know if I have it in me to try. It’s not that I don’t trust them to make an amazing sandwich. It’s that I don’t know if it’s gonna taste like a real Philly cheesesteak and there’s something special about that greasy cheese whiz taste that you can only get while eating it off of a Wawa garbage can at 10:30 in the morning.“

“Just had a shredded chicken burrito delivered. Highly recommended. Excellent food. Looking forward to trying out the enchiladas. 👍“

“had lamb gyro and chicken gyro, both were really good.“

“Usually I don't leave reviews unless I am blown away. This is one of those cases. I ordered the Lamb Gyro with Baklava for dessert. The meat on the lamb melts in your mouth, the sauces are so flavorable, the bread was warm and soft, the gyro was packed with meat.

The baklava was delicious, sweet but enough to the point to where its not overly sweet, a perfect level of sweetness that is hard to be replicated.

I live in Vancouver and UberEats this all the way from Portland. It is the best middle eastern food I have ever had, tonight it has taken the #1 throne. Writing this review right after I ate it.“

“The pupusas are delicious the OG is my favorite“

“By far my favorite coffee in Portland. They are so nice and there’s homemade tamales and the coffee is strong and flavorful. They knock the trendy coffee shops right out of the water. I literally count down the weekend until Monday when they open for the “

“The best burrito and fresh made chips still warm😋 I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu 😊“

“crab puffs are amazing! I have tried noodle. rice, and curry dishes.....all of them have been amazing. The veggies and chicken are always high quality. My coworkers and I order lunch from there on a regular basis. so good“

“In order to beat Enchanted Sun's breakfast burritos you have to get a passport, either drive or fly roughly 1,200 miles south, and then cross the border. The *only* complaint I have about Enchanted Sun is that they don't have a brick and mortar shop. I would love to be able to get their burritos on a weekday!“

“Simple, amazing tacos. I got the al pastor tacos with cilantro and onions, with a side of rice and beans. The habanero salsa was the perfect balance of heat and flavor. The staff was nice and the food was fast. And a roof over my head, as it was raining, sealed the deal. I'll definitely come back again!“

“There's nothing better than having a hot dog after a morning walk through the park. The Polish sausage was worthy of being devoured. Had a blast adding my favorite condiments. Their lemonade was also cold and refreshing. I wish they had free refills.“

“I've had many delicious burritos here. My favorite is the carnitas. <$10, <10 minutes. You can call ahead. Cash or card, but bring some cash for tips. I live nearby and attend PSU, and it's one of the best quick take out places around. Maybe the best. ?“

“Mercedes made me a delicious caramel latte and was such a sweetheart! New to the area and a big fan of bikini coffee spots, so I'll definitely be back for that great coffee, fantastic personality and gorgeous smile! :D Very comfortable and inviting for female customers!“

“Excellent food, good service“

“We had to try Nico’s real fruit ice cream and we loved it! So delicious. 👍“
