I ordered take out from here. I put "Mild" for spice level and emphasized it in the notes. I got my food and it was inedible. The spice was the complete opposite of mild. There were actual pepper seeds sprinkled over the top. I called the restaurant to see if they would make it right. The woman I spoke to said "just ask for a refund from whatever site you ordered from." And hung up. Did not offer to fix their mistake...meanwhile my dinner was ruined and I could not eat it. No one in my household could stomach eating how spicy it was. It would have been an easy fix. I ordered via Postmates, so I contacted them and they wouldn't refund me either. They said it was up to the restaurant to make it right...and you can see how helpful they were in that regard. I was very disappointed in the level of service and quality of the food. If they had offered to remake it, I would have given this place a second chance. Now I will never go back thanks to this experience.

I love the Portland food truck experience in general, but this one absolutely takes the cake! Easily the best vegan meal I've had in my 3 years exploring vegan options in this amazing food town! The owners are kind and super friendly, too!

Vegetarian options: I eat vegan, and there are several fantastic options! The Peanut Sauce Tofu was mind-blowing!

I ordered Lemongrass Chicken with extra broccoli. Dish with tip was $20. Basically it was white rice, tough flavorless chicken, carrots over steamed and good thing I ordered extra broccoli because otherwise I don’t think any broccoli would have been in the dish.

It's been long overdue for me to write a review here. Best Salmon belly in town I always crave it!!! I'm craving it as I type this. It's crispy, loaded, packed with umami and even comes with some veggies and rice for the perfect bite. The laos dipping sauce is also essential for it. Some other honorable mentions are: Laotion beef jerky, waterfall steak, nam khao and the salt and pepper shrimp and squid. OOH and you can't forget the beignets with all the dipping sauces for a savory dessert or of course, the classic mango sticky rice that you can have customized with different flavored sticky rice. Wash it down with one of their refreshing beverages, thai iced tea, iced ube, and green tea thai tea and so much more.

Got the pho rench dip with steak. This dish is totally worth it. The sandwich is overflowing with fresh and delicious veg and meat. The sandwich by itself is fantastic great use of green onion , cilantro, sprouts sauce . The steak was perfectly cooked and went great with the sandwich. Th pho soup on the side just added another lawyer to the sandwich where you can dip some of the bread and veg and get pho broth taste. Pho broth was on the lighter side for taste but I think that was good as the sandwich was the star .
