“We absolutely love Fresh Love! It’s a really great spot for breakfast or lunch. They have a lot of gluten free options and a great selection of products including local produce and baked goods.Dietary restrictions: The gluten free options here are really good!Kid-friendliness: A very welcoming atmosphere for everyone“
“One of the best pizza joints in Portland some of the nicest folks ever. The care and love they put into their food also shows up in how they treat and pay their employees, which gets reflected in the quality of food and service. Always happy to pay more to get something unique and special, while supporting my community to boot!“
“I wanted to try a new place for date night and picked a good one. The food was excellent, the service was warm. I made a reservation for the purple room which has about 4 small tables. There is another room that has more tables and a bar. The restaurant is on the second floor of a converted house. I don't think they have an elevator, so you're aware. We got mostly what the waiter recommended. The chicken liver mousse tart was savory and delicate, crust being flaky and good contrast to the vinaigretted frissee. The grilled cauliflower still had crunch and umami. I picked the duck confit which had delicious crispy crust and a slight sweet, salty sauce. My husband had the pork coppa which is a braised pork shoulder over a sauce with delicious huge beans. I thought all the food was outstanding, the presentation was great and flavors well balanced. Ended the night with an almond flour orange cake, not too sweet. I might have skipped that one because the gelee was a little tart and cake a denser than expected. The waiter was great at helping us navigate the menu. I liked all the choices available and can't wait to try more of them. I don't think there is a wrong choice here. Their menu options rotate.“
“Some of the best Ethiopian I've ever had (and I grew up on it). Beautiful environment, and great service. The chickpea dish is so good I think of it all the time. One of my new favorite restaurants in Portland!Dietary restrictions: I think it might even be easy for a vegan. And the injera (the bread) is gluten-free!“
“One of my favorite Portland restaurants! The team is so kind and the food is unique and delicious. Drinks are excellent too. The regular menu is great and they always have something interesting on special. There aren’t tons of vegetarian and vegan options, but enough that me and whoever is dining with me are always happy. :)“
“Had a great meal here on Friday night, including some of the best gluten free pasta we've ever had. Service was lovely, very professional and we were treated well. Was a nice evening out. We did make a reservation, which was ready and waiting for us. I would recommend reserving a table before hand as it gets quite busy. Can't wait to go back!“
“Via Delizia on Broadway delivers a five-star coffee experience. Their brews are exceptional, with rich foam adding a delightful touch. The owner's dedication to top-notch service completes the experience. A must-visit for coffee enthusiasts!"“
“Always a wonderful experience. Top notch plant based cuisine with a wonderful twist of flavor combinations.True care and time goes into their menu, tonight we enjoyed house made tempe, sauces, vinegars, and fermented beverages that have been crafting for months.Far more than just a meal Astera delivers a dining experience worth the price of admission.Highly recommend!“
“Best blueberry muffin I’ve ever had! Delicious breakfast sandwich with free drip coffee, and a very friendly Nana. Vegetarians: when I said I didn’t want meat on my sandwich, she offered tomato instead which I thought was a nice touch! So lucky to have this spot in the neighborhood.“
“We visited Denizens Cafe today for the first time and we cannot recommend it enough. The food was excellent, the service was beyond great, and the two people working that day were so lovely and made us feel so welcome. We will for sure be back!“
“On my first visit, I went with a group and we shared nearly the entire pasta menu family-style. Before we even left, I was texting a friend about how they needed to try this place because each dish was, individually, the best pasta dish I’d ever had. On the next visit, I heard the table to the left of me say “This is the best bolognese I’ve ever had.” Earlier in the night the table to the right of me couldn’t stop talking about how the chicken cavatelli was their favorite pasta they’d ever had.So, come to Montelupo for the best pasta you’ll ever have!“
“Such a great spot! Oysters were super delicious, drinks were perfect, the staff was friendly and kind! Was not expecting such a steal on a Friday but here we are! We never come to china town either and now have a new reason too, as well as spotting a few other restaurants we're excited to try!“
“Hands down, best service I’ve ever had from a delivery place. It’s 2:00 and my friends and I needed tenders- not only are they reasonably priced, I would’ve payed twice as much for the quality of the food, and the level of service from the owner (who, by the way, personally walked me through the menu and asked for suggestions). I’d pay $30 for these things, and I didn’t even get one of their sandwiches. I will definitely be ordering from them again, and I suggest you do the same.“
“stopped by for late lunch and tried their bento based on the great reviews (lunch pricing ends at 3pm). the food was super fresh and yummy! ordering is via QR code on the tables. the server was kind and checked on us. sashimi and sushi were fresh. the spicy chicken serving was probably twice the size of what i usually get in a bento. i ended up bringing most of the chicken & rice home and had them for dinner. this meal fed me all day!“
“The food was delicious! I never say that about restaurants, but I want everyone to know about Ruk Diew Cafe! the food was fresh ND so good. the coconut prawns were tender and flavorful, the fried tofu was crispy and the sauce yummy. I think I had green mango in a lovely sauce with red peppers. I am a happy diner.“
“Sorbu’s food tonight brought me back to my hometown, Livorno. Perfect rendition of the classic “5 e 5 con le melanzane” like you can find in the streets of Livorno, and a Porchetta sandwich as it could have been served by a legendary paninoteca from my youth (the salsa verde is the real deal). We’ll be back! Thanks to fellow Tuscan-Portlander for the recommendation!“
“Black Star Grill catered our wedding. They created an amazing menu and even delivered to our venue. Due to our covid concerns, they boxed each meal separately. This was very convenient to take home after the wedding. The food was DELICIOUS, even the staff loved the food. Many of our guests got to experience West African food for the first time. Thank you for being a part of our wedding!“
“The owner was amazing, he went out of his way to talk to us and get to know us personally during our experience there. I have a family member who is disabled and he helped us! Overall I would highly recommend it was a perfect night for my 18th birthday❤️“
“Fresh and delicious! Chess Tacos took over the space that used to be El Diablito which had some of the best tacos in Portland [just my opinion] so they had big shoes to fill and did not disappoint.I tried the Pollo Burrito and really enjoyed it. The service was friendly and quick. The burrito is loaded with fresh ingredients, the chicken cooked perfectly, and great flavor! The chips are fresh and crisp, the perfect addition to the burrito. The avocado sauce is a bit meh, but other than that it's all delicious. I will be back to try some of their other salsas and some tacos! Will update once I've tried more, but it was a very pleasant first visit. I took my order to go but there are picnic tables with umbrellas or a few bar seats on the deck if you want to hangout for a bit to enjoy your food.“
“Until recently I worked on NE Broadway for nearly the last 5 years and have passed the place many a times and decided to stop in tonight to take myself on a solo dinner date. I am now kicking myself for sleeping on this place. What a cute, tucked away hidden gem! Sabrina was working the front of house and was an absolute sweetheart. I mentioned I was a lactose intolerant and pescatarian and she nailed it recommending the salmon salad. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the salad was fresh, and light while still hitting savory, sweet, acidic and a little nutty with the the feta. I enjoyed myself while dining alone but i’n looking forward to having a new date spot! Especially on the cute little patio while summer winds down.“
“Went here the other night for the first time in a while, for dinner. I was warmly greeted upon entry and directed to seating. Excellent vibes and nice decor. We ordered the appetizer combo and chicken satay to start. I had the evil jungle noodle medium spicy. It was as delicious as I remember. One of my friends had the tom yum with shrimp and said they were very pleased with it. Good prices for downtown and generous portions. Great service! Definitely recommend this place! Parking can be tricky as it sits on a busy corner of 2 one-way streets, but if you dont mind walking a block or 2, youll be fine.“
“Amazing food! We had the platter that comes with all the favorites and it was the best Mediterranean food we’ve ever had! Highly, highly recommend. And the family working there was super nice to us, even with our toddler doing toddler things.“
“Really really good burger! The garlic fries are super good- we ordered them and then asked for them to be well done and they were so crispy and delicious. They have a lemonade with whatever featured berries and that was also good. They don’t have a large menu so more like a place that does something and does it well. I look forward to trying their chicken and fish sandwiches.“
“5 stars all around! The amount of love, identity, thought and detail that go into curating the dining experience that is Langbaan, is a unique and very special gastronomic adventure. From the Kanin Krak (scallop), Tom Prape (salmon), Gang Pai (brisket in cha om leaf curry) to the Rice Khao Lam (sticky rice pudding + fixins), your tastebuds are in for a treat that takes dining to an entire new level, another world and culture of flavor! Plus, they really care about the visuals - they made beets look like blood! March was the month highlighting Isaan, the chef’s hometown in Northern Thailand, we really get a taste of his childhood, very nostalgic.I look forward to the month where the menu is unapologetically Thai! I’m talking bile, blood, tripe, and all of the authenticity that makes Thai cuisine so bold and flavorful. I appreciate how thoughtful the chefs are when designing the menu. I encourage customers to be open to the Thai food scene, in all its forms!! I have no doubt that Langbaan will always put heart and soul into their menu. Thank you to the entire staff for their hospitality and for an exceptional dining experience for my birthday and anniversary!“
“Oma’s Hideaway offers tasty tapas style Malaysian and Singaporean street food (1 plate can comfortably serve 2 people). Possibly the best Roti in the city! Maybe the highlight of the night.Great for date night or a group experience.Knowledgeable staff, outdoor seating, and street parking.Be prepared to $$.Enjoy!“
“This place is exactly what I needed in this city! The quality of the food is great, with fresh ingredients that scream healthiness. The menu offers a range from savory to sweet, ensuring there's something for every palate. The staff is friendly, and the ambiance is just right. I'll definitely be coming back again and again!“
“Awesome Vegan menu! Love all the options! It was DELICIOUS... Pizza, Garlic Knots and Bread sticks!! My partner and i will be going back to try more of the food! And the guys that waited on us were also awesome! As we got in our car the came out and gave us free Vegan cookies! Thanks for the great experience! See you soon!“
“Highly recommend stopping in on a sunny day for lunch or dinner. They open the doors up and offer a nice selection of food and local drinks. The staff is friendly and the layout is fun having the big pizza oven visible to the whole dining area. The Cesar Salad and the Margherita pizza are a must. They offer fresh Parmesan cheese and chili oil to go along with the pizza.Vegetarian options: There are plenty of salad and pizza options that can be order or are vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: They will accommodate any dietary restrictions that you may have.Parking: You’ll have to find a spot on the street. If you’re out front on the main road you’ll have to pay but if you park on the side roads off of main it’ll be free.Kid-friendliness: This place is accommodating to children and has high chairs for toddlers.Wheelchair accessibility: This restaurant is located on the first floor and accessible to wheelchairs.“
“Got the turkey cranberry relish with Brie panini and the sandwich special which was a corned beef, sauerkraut, Gouda and pickle panini. Both sandwiches were amazing and ready for pickup on time. The staff was helpful and nice. This is going to be our new go to sandwich shop!“
“This place, when at its best, is amazing. Great food, great drinks, and always excellent service.That said, a few things on the menu suffer when its busy, notably the french fries. Sometimes you get an amazing batch of twice fried big crispy fries, and sometimes you get a pile of greasy nubs.The smash burger is legit, and the hot wings are perfect (just franks and butter). I'll keep going even though there are a few misses here and there.“
“Their Thing is EVERYONE can eat here, right? Well, I stumped them. BUT! They pulled through for me! Gabe in specific went through the protein items and sauces one by one, because I have an allium allergy (PITA, that) and found everything had an allium of some kind. So instead of turning me away? He offered to make me something special and even threw in one of my favorite little tart fruits to jazz it up: cranberries! All the stars for this place and especially Gabe!Dietary restrictions: Dairy Free, Gluten Free, and I also have an almond and allium allergy to boot (iykyk) and they still came through for me AND it was delicious and filling.“
“I've been here 4 times and it's always very enjoyable. The downstairs dining room is smaller, so I'd suggest making a reservation as it's where all the atmosphere is at. I ate upstairs once - the atmosphere is definitely not as cool up there BUT you can rent it for events, which is cool. The drinks are great and the food good.“
“Delicious, but slow. First, this is an indoor "cart pod" facility and Coco Garden is over off the options. There is a performance venue, and lots of tables. It is like a mall food court, but in a good way. A Thai place inside Zed, they have an extensive set of gluten free options. I got pineapple curry and my husband got pineapple fried rice (see the theme?) I also got Thai ice tea. All tasty and worthwhile. I was sad that the ice tea was made with half and half, rather than coconut milk, but I also didn't ask if I could have a substitute. The only downside was how long the food took. Our party ordered from multiple locations. The others had finished their meal before ours was ready. So, give it a try, just need prepared to wait.“
“They were out of a lot of to-go cold soup, but the people were nice, and the food was delicious. I even bought an extra sandwich to go! Don't skip out on the cookies they're soft, and they really hit the spot for that post-meal sweets craving. We got a hot turkey sandwich (my husband LOVED this - a combo of the cheese pull and onions), steak sandwich, mac n cheese, shortbread cookie (my fave), double chocolate cookie (husband's fave), and a cute elephant shaped shortbread cookie.The service was friendly and welcoming, and I would go again“
“Great to have a salad option in the airport! Ingredients were fresh and topping options are expansive. Really appreciated two vegan protein options- vegan chik’n and tofu. 4 different vegan dressing options was nice too, though most were olive oil or vinegar heavy. I found the pricing pretty fair and I’ll definitely be back when passing through this terminal.“
“I got a medium pad kee mao and loved the variety of vegetables as well as the fact that the wide rice noodles were not overcooked. Their mango sticky rice is one of the best I've ever had! I have not been able to find mangoes this ripe and sweet in a while. And of course, the staff are so hospitable and kind. I'll definitely be back!“
“The lady who works there is AMAZING ? Her family has owned the place 22 years she hooked it up and seriously treated us amazing! Doesn't hurt that the food is also fire she also knows good substitutes to reccomend for your philly sandwhiches if one sounds good but don't like everything on it she's very good with giving reccomendations and substitutes for what's on them!“
“Came here for lunch and was absolutely delighted with their food. Got a breakfast sandwich (avocado + egg) and the bread was perfectly toasted. I also got a wedge salad and it was pretty tasty too. Only thing is that I wish it came with a bit more sauce. But that’s just my preference. Was still yummy.“
“Amazing food! We did the 7 course option and it turned out wonderful. The staff is sooo super friendly and knowledgeable about everything. Can’t wait to go back next time we’re in Portland. Also holds a special place in my heart since we got engaged there. :)“
“The Caesar salad made with radicchio was super impressive. The large plate that fed about 4 was fluffy and piled high with Parmesan and lightly dressed. I would have eaten all of it if I didn't need to save room for pizza. It was that good. The combination pizza was light and crispy and I liked how it was cut into squares. The deep crust pizza was just right for my son.“
“everything was real good, and enjoyed the night but later that night i noticed they decided to tip themselves when they ran my card, i always leave cash as a tip for the waitress/waiters at the end and i tipped 40 bucks on a 75.00 bill tonight, so kinda pissed me off they felt it nessesary to take a graditute or what ever they call it ....“
“Update: my now WIFE and I still go here all the time! Just as delicious as it was seven years ago. Still one of our favorite spots. Peter, the owner is sweet and will joke around with you if you ever come in.My girlfriend and I are regulars here. It's our favorite restraunt in Portland by far. The veggie combo and beef tibs are the best we've ever had. I can not recommends eating here enough.“
“Our son decided to take the family here, for one of the adults' birthday! This will be the first time, we've heard of this restaurant, to be honest. There were six of us eating here for the first time, ages 6-73. I call this a Tapas-style restaurant because almost everything was meant for sharing. Starting of course with a large fondue, with a steaming urn of hot melted cheese. The fondue came with a nice variety of sausages, vegetables and bread, and thinly slices of apples. Other things we shared were the Schnitzel, smoked trout, Bavarian pretzel, golden beets, and the burger Alpina which was served with fries. For desert we had the flourless chocolate cake and panna cotta. Between us we did have a glass of wine, a couple cocktails and an IPA. This is a gastro pub and the drinks menu is extensive. All of the food items were delicious and as described on the menu. Service was friendly and appropriately paced. The bathrooms are clean. Our youngest, conversed easily and both were polite to our waiter, who understands children! Bonus point for him.“
“Went there for lunch today with close friends Celebrating a birthday and was blown away!!! It was great!!! The owners are delightful!!! The pizza, salads, the Italian ice and the sweet caramel sauce fry bread are absolutely delicious!!! I know we will all be going back!!! Fun time!!!“
“I love this cart. Oh well, haters gonna h8. I'll drive across the city for one of their plates, they're so good! They consistently hook it up with the large portions, plus lots of sides. I typically order the Mixed Meat Plate. Come with chicken kebab, which is my fave. Get a baklava, too. Very tasty. A solid choice if you have a big appetite, like me lol“
“My favorite neighborhood Thai spot. The staff are very friendly. They have good vegetarian options and the food is yummy!Vegetarian options: You can get several dishes with tofu or extra vegetables. Sometimes I special request broccoli or egg for the protein and there’s never been a problem.“
“Don’t walk too fast or you’ll pass it. Cool place I stumbled onto. Bad signage great food. Corn chowder tastes homemade to me and I’m a soup snob. Cornbread OMG! Pastrami sandwich dad would love. Soups, salads and sandwiches. Subway on steroids!“
“Loved this 'new to me' place. The food was delicious, just the right portion size for lunch. The atmosphere was light, calm and relaxing, perfect for catching up with my special friend. I will certainly be taking more friends there?“
“This is a quaint, little, unassuming place to eat. If my friend didn't take me here, I wouldn't have noticed it at all! But it's got a nice view of the river, pretty clean, and quick service. Nice owners, and the cook was really good. Definitely worth grabbing a quick bite when you're in a crunch!“
“The taquitos here are delicious, made with fresh ingredients, seasoned perfectly, and balanced with some veggies and pickled onions. If you come at lunch hour, there can be a bit of a wait as they get a lot of regulars, but it's well worth it, or you can order online.“
