Honestly the best meal in Portland. Sauciest sauces. Dankest fried chicken flavors. Friendly vibes, fair prices. Everything you could ever want in a food truck. One of evolution’s finest creations

Very friendly and enthusiastic staff. Some covered seating. The fried tofu dish is delicious! Pad see ew is standard. Would return, plenty of vegetarian choices.

Limited selection, but unusual and tasty. He fries the food right there and offers samples. I had the gluten free and vegan fried cauliflower with chili and curry dipping sauces. The fried cauliflower didn’t need the dip, but was even better with it.

We stopped by an hour before their listed closing time and they were not open. Idk if the listed hours were I correct or if they just closed early, but I had driven 45 minutes out of our way to get what appears to be some of the best rated GF fried chicken in Portland. I still intend to stop by sometime, but I can't make it a destination if I can't count on them being open when I get there.

I almost walked past this gem I'm gluten free so when a food cart shows pictures of fried food, it's almost automatically a no-go for me. GLUTEN FREE BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN The seasonings, the sauces, the chicken. It was all perfect

Hours listed are not accurate. I drove here and the place was already closed.

I can’t believe this fried chicken is gluten free! The chicken is super moist. The coating is crispy and delicious. The hand cut potatoes are cut rustic and uneven which means you get some that are crunchy like chips and some that are the perfect round French fry. If you’ve got room for dessert get the chai! Perfect amount of spice and subtle sweetness.

Love love love for Gluten Free comfort food that is safe. Bring cash! Cash or venmo only. The only gluten in the cart is their buns, to my knowledge, so very little cross contamination issues.The chicken tenders have this lovely curry-esque coating underneath the wonderfully crispy breading, and the side sauces are unique. Price is great! Support this lovely human.

We had the Buffalo chips, chicken strips and fried okra and it was the bomb, the sauce on the side was awesome as well!

Had the parhata and chai and both were SO GOOD. Chicken is halal! The owner is awesome which made discovering this place so much more exciting. Can’t wait to come back!

I got food poisoning from this cart. I have not stopped throwing up and all I had was the "break your fast". I'm hoping it was a one time thing but it was bad. I'm only leaving this here so others are careful when ordering and the owner reviews food safety because I haven't been this sick in a while.
