The Portland Beef & Cheese Company is a small, unassuming restaurant run by a friendly couple known for their hospitality and engaging with customers. They offer a variety of meals, including a Spicy Russian flatbread sandwich, a New York dog with kraut and Mama Lil's peppers, and a Reuben served on a pita flatbread. The pastrami, sourced from New York, is particularly noteworthy and hard to beat at this price. Customers can enjoy a twist on a Chicago dog, which has also received praise. The restaurant features various types of mustard and other condiments. Prices remain reasonable, with $1 chips and sodas reminiscent of the old days. The atmosphere is down-to-earth and welcoming, resembling a classic "mom and pop" shop, making customers feel like they are at a family cookout. There is no restroom on the premises. Customers often feel like they've been here before and often highlight the friendly staff. Many recommend giving the Spicy Russian and hot dogs a try, as they are fresh, on point, and served quickly. Overall, the owners create a kind and welcoming experience that keeps people coming back to support this small local business.
