The food was good. It is much more of a delicatessen than a restaurant. As a traveler having to go outside and around the block to use a restroom would make me choose somewhere else next time I am in HoodRiver. The service was pleasant. read more

Really enjoyed our lunch while in town and the staff was friendly and helpful. I had a ham and brie sandwich with a side of macaroni salad. Everything had a nice balance of flavors and wasn't too saucy or salty. We also took home a chunk of Pecorino cheese to enjoy later. The interior was cute and they offer lots of local things like chocolate and kitchenware. Wish there was more seating. The bathroom is located around the building and on the first floor. You will need to ask for the key. It is a hike to get there, but it is clean and secure. read more

Boda's was the perfect stop for lunch! We got here just before the rush and had trouble choosing since everything looked and sounded so good. We ordered a Turkey cranberry sandwich, Brie and ham panini, seasonal tomato peach salad, the soup of the day (Hungarian Mushroom) and a kids plate of the rotisserie chicken and mashed potato. Everything was so delicious and generously portioned. My favorite was the panini and the chicken. We also got a chocolate chip cookie to share for dessert - it still had gooey chocolate and hit the spot. I would come back here every time when visiting Hood River. Prices were not super high either which is always a plus. The only downside of this spot is that they are in an old building so the bathroom is actually around the building and in the back alleyway... but the inconvenience is worth for the delicious food! read more

So good. And feel so good after eating here. In hood river for three days. Tried to go two days in a row and for Various reasons, didn't work out. Day three, we tried again. Did not disappoint. Had 1/2 chicken with 2 sides. Shares with husband. Perfect lunch. Prices reasonable, service fast and friendly. Food 5 stars read more

Only downside is if you are physically disabled, the bathroom is outside, down the parking lot to the back of the building, off the alley. It is definitely not wheelchair accessible. So go before/after. BUT, definitely come here to eat!!! Small menu but so much work & care goes into each dish! Turkey Berry sandwich was fantastic as was the Beet salad and the Suger Pea salad! The mandarin oranges in the beet salad were a wonderful pleasant surprise: I'm going to start adding them to mine! The black sesame dressing was delicious & lite and more savory but a bit too much oil. Friend liked her lemon bar which had a perfect shortbread base with a nice thick layer of sweet tart lemon filling. I had the best Key Lime cheesecake bar! Again nice graham cracker base, nice thick layer of cheesecake filling topped with the perfect layer of tart Key lime. They have their own small parking lot on the west side of the building, which I GREATLY appreciated not having to pay for parking! The Morracan chicken smelled heavenly! And several other salads looked so fresh! read more

Absolutely delicious! Stopped in for a bite while we were in town for a wrestling tournament. Great flavors and very kind and caring staff!

Great place to grab a lunch in Mt. Hood. I had an amazing turkey and cranberry chutney with Swiss beautifully stacked arugula and mayo sandwich. Memorably delicious. Their salads looked incredible, hope to go back and try one. The beet and orange salad looked especially tempting. Really cute place to dine in and there are an abundance of amazing things to choose from. I had the banana bread and although it was delicious flavor, it was slightly dry. Maybe needs a little more oil or butter to hold over moisture? Highly recommended! read more

My family and I stopped in here after driving along the Columbia Gorge. This place is like a cafe and market in one. They mainly sell hot and cold sandwiches and also have roast chicken and a few other hot foods. You order and find a seat, where they bring you your meal and then you bus your own table. I had the Turkey Berry sandwich, hubby got the Ham & Brie panini, and my kids got the Spicy Pork sandwich, burrito, and gluten free grilled cheese kids meal (the kids meal was a lone little sandwich with no sides, so that was kind of a pathetic looking kids meal. Overall the quality of the food was tasty and fresh, but nothing mind blowing. read more

Boda's Kitchen - Turkey Berry Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Hood River, Oregon

Delicious, healthy food! We ate everything so quickly, I have no pictures of my lunch! Body's Kitchen has soups, salads, sandwiches and hot food items like chicken enchiladas and roasted chicken. You can mix and match all sorts of combinations to create your meal. Plus a freezer full of food you can buy and heat up at home. After a gorgeous scenic ride along the WA side of the Columbia, and shopping in some of my favorite boutiques, (have to support local business, right?) we were quite ravenous but didn't want to waste any of this sunny, blue sky day by sitting inside or at a more formal restaurant. While passing Boda's Kitchen, right in the middle of town on Oak Street, the intoxicating aroma lured us in. After checking everything out in both the market area and the deli case, I went for a piece of lemon & herb roasted chicken with a side of quinoa salad and a side of brussel sprouts. Let's just say, I made a fabulous choice! The chicken was perfectly roasted with crispy skin and juicy, flavorful meat. The quinoa salad had chopped zucchini and sweet potatoes and maybe kale, all dressed in a lovely vinaigrette. Bright and fresh. The brussel sprouts, once only seen in Thanksgiving tables and now available everywhere, all year long, we're the star of the show! Roasted and dressed in a sweet and savory glaze, they were perfectly caramelized. I could eat a bowl of these and be satisfied! This is fresh food, made from high quality ingredients, cooked perfectly, served with a smile! You can't go wrong here! Next time I will try their roasted beat salad and maybe one of their sandwiches. The chicken salad with grapes and walnuts looked so good! You can purchase chips, cookies and brownies, and beverages from the case. I chose a hard dry cider and we sat out front and ate, actually devoured, our lunch in the fresh air and sunshine. Felt so good to have a sense of normalcy during these crazy Covid times! The lunch was so filling and satisfying, we didn't eat dinner. Boda's Kitchen is a high end deli without the high end prices or attitude! Wish they had a second location in Portland! But I venture to Hood River frequently and now I have a favorite go to spot for lunch! read more

Stopped in for lunch. The paninis (hot Italian and Cubano) were fabulous. Great flavors and plenty of food. For me the garlic mashed potatoes did not have enough flavor. Service was not welcoming, but was efficient. Interesting that I asked if they could include forks with our to go order and the server said "it's in the bag" and even though we ordered two paninis, a medium side serving and there were two of us she only gave us one fork?? read more

Delightful treats for dessert can be found here! Easy to stop in and grab to go on your way for a picnic or to enjoy outside on a nice evening :) There were also tasty looking sides and other staples that I wish I had time to peruse. Next time! read more

We stopped at Boda's for lunch while visiting Hood River. The food was sourced locally, presented beautifully, and priced reasonably. The service was friendly and responsive to our needs. The beet salad was awesome. I also recommend the coconut, oat, chocolate chip cookie. Yummy. Boda's is located in an old storefront that speaks to the history of Hood River. As an added bonus, they have off-street parking right next door. read more

I have had Mexican meals twice this week and, in spite of wanting to try "Kim's" suggestion, I wanted something different. Thanks to high Yelp retirees I came to Boda's and left very satisfied. Tried their lemon roasted chicken which was tender and seasoned with right amount of herbs. (This is roasted vs deep fried.). Added the corn salad with roasted corn taken off the cob, cilantro, pieces of tomatoes and more. Also, the garlicky potato salad with just the right amount of Mayo and garlic without being overwhelming. Finally, had a coconut macaroon -one of my favs- and it was just right. Not compacted or too sweet - perfect. A will come back for me. read more

I was on the hunt for soups or salads and Boda's Kitchen popped up in my Yelp search to fill both of the my desires. Better yet, the soup of the day was gazpacho (one of my favorite soups!). I also loved seeing that 1.) they had a very straightforward online ordering platform; 2.) the beet salad appears to be their most popular and beets never get enough love; 3.) they appear to use local and seasonal ingredients on the menu wherever they can; 4.) had I not already purchased a pie earlier in the day, I would have ordered one of their fun and individually sized desserts like the panna cotta topped with huckleberries or flourless chocolate cake. I ended up ordering the two piece rotisserie chicken meal with two sides (beer salad and soup) for $12. We placed the order online and the food was ready in thirty minutes for pickup. read more

Ok guys, my apologies for lack of manners and not sharing the picture of my very tasty Northwest Salad prior to scarfing it down. The crunch from the hazelnuts and creamy house balsamic vinaigrette is what makes this salad for me. I got the side size and it was the perfect size for a late lunch/snack. Not only was there food delicious but incredibly easy to order online with curbside pick up. If you are able to order online then they still got your cover in a very COVID 19 safe way with a couple outdoor seats, order at the door, little to no contact ordering situation. I also want to give a shout out to their consistent efforts to reduce plastic waste by providing wooden utensils and recycled certified green to go containers. Way to help us eat on the go and not feel guilty about the waste consumed from plastics. If you are looking for something a bit more filling their rotisserie chicken is also aaaamazing! Boda's is always a solid downtown Hood River go to! Thanks read more

I've eaten here in the past and the food was outstanding. My lunch today was just average at $37 for two folks. Disappointed when I asked for an additional peanut sauce (very small) for a wrap, I was charged an additional $2 for it. read more

Delightful cafe! Great wine selection, you can buy a bottle to enjoy with your meal. Highly recommend!

We had hungarian mushroom soup, the berry turkey and the ham and fig. We absolutely loved our food, just wish it was more affordable- it was not a good portion for the cost on any of the dishes we got... so it makes it hard to want to go back when saving money is importnant and for the same amount of money spent we could get better portions. read more

Quick lunch after the Christmas Train. Yummy food; friendly people; great filberts on the salad. Roasted chicken was very flavorful.

We stumbled upon this place on our drive from Walla Walla back to Ashland. What a find! Absolutely delicious soup and salad. I would describe this place as a gourmet deli. Bonus is that it is a quick in-and-out, for those who want to get back on the road. I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because I thought it was spendy for the quantity of food. read more

Nice little deli in the middle of town. They are an excellent sandwich, salad, and lunch special kind of place. We opted for the chicken special with two sides. We ended up with a chicken leg quarter, a garlic-y potato salad, and some roasted vegetables. I cleaned my plate and was full for hours. V had a large bowl of onion soup that was chock full of sweet onions topped with a slice of cheese - a little sweet but good to the last spoonful. A good recommendation from a local business woman that eats there often. They also serve a selection of sweets and bottles of wine. read more

We loved having Boda's and owner Sirota cater our wedding at Gorge Crest Vineyards. From the time we contacted her to actually eating her food at our reception, we knew we found the right person, with the right vision on food and dining to cater for us. Her team put together a fantastic family style menu for us, and provided/curated lovely table settings and plateware for us. She also has connections/ran point on working with our alcohol vendor to organize the alcohol, so it was one less vendor we had to work with director. Plus, she didn't mind at all helping us work within our budget while still making sure there was plenty of choices for the menu. On top of catering for us, Sirota designed and ran point on making our custom table centerpieces, which was her brainchild-- a tablescape of autumn harvest fruits and herbs from the Gorge. Hello!! Talk about functional, delicious and gorgeous centerpieces. Our guests ate 'em all up, literally! Her team also made our wedding favors, which were mini loaves of banana bread, a dessert that was very special to my husband and my love story. Again, guests ate them all up, and it was a welcomed treat after dancing snack, and were raving about them. You won't just get a caterer with Boda's and Sirota...you'll get a dedicated and passionate team of foodies who really care about making your day amazing, boozy, fun, and delicious! read more

Stopped here for lunch during our Mt. Hood Day Trip from Portland to Multnomah Falls and Hood River. We both had the Ham and Brie Panini, which was outstanding. Fresh ingredients, friendly staff, and a charming shop made this an outstanding choice. Highly recommended for lunch whilst in Hood River, which itself is a delightful little town. read more

Unbelievably small portions. Felt like a rip off for a $14 panini that has one slice of meat on it, deeply unsatisfying Spent $30 and ended up just having to go down the street after to get a burger read more

Great place to stop for a quick bite while driving through the Columbia River Gorge. The service is always friendly and they have a nice variety of items to choose from. The deli case has delicious salads, pre-made items that can be heated, roasted chicken (yum!), soups, sandwiches and desserts. There isn't much seating, so to-go is the best option here, especially during lunch time as it can get quite busy. They also have some fun and unique gift offerings, snacks and beverages for purchase. They don't have a parking lot, only street parking available (as most restaurants and shops do in this area). They also have a restroom, but it's down around the backside of the building in the basement...you've been warned ;-) Overall, I would highly recommend for the great food and convenience. read more

Great vegetarian sandwich. Fun market of wines and other items. I'd happily return and work my way thru the menu over time.

This restaurant is by far the best one in hood city. The food is so outstanding. I drove an hour and a half out of my way just to pick up several complete chicken dinners including garlic mashed potatoes and several salads. The secret seasonings that they use on their rotisserie chickens have me singing their praises. Everything they make is so fresh and so absolutely delicious. I have never been dissatisfied in my choices. I used to live a lot closer to their location, but moving away doesn't stop me from taking that beautiful trip to Mt. Hood city. The people that work there are so pleasant and so helpful, especially during the pandemic. I highly recommend picking up their dinners to go with one or two of their vast array of delicious handmade salads. I let all my friends know about Boda's Deli, and I can't wait to come back. read more

OMG! Can't wait to go back! On our anniversary weekend and we were late making reservations at some of the local spots so we said let's just pick something up and go back to the room! Boda's seemed nice but it's a Deli so we weren't expecting much. Sandwiches, potato salad, etc. Whoa! Were we wrong! Lemon herb rotisserie chicken was perfect! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and the flavor!! Mashed potatoes were great but the star of the potato offerings was definitely the Garlicky Potato Salad!! The name is correct, in case you're a vampire, burger are delicious! Sesame sugar snap peas were equally delicious! They even pull the string along the spine of the pod! So awesome! Greek salad and caramel cheesecake bar for dessert for us to share and literally everything was awesome!! Don't miss this place when in HR! read more

This place was referred by a local. The owner, Sirota, which we did not know at the time, took our order. She was very unpleasant. Rude. No greeting, no smiles. Her presence was "hurry up I don't want to be here and I don't care". Ha! I asked a question about the iced tea, if there was a free refill. "No", that was it. Anyway, food was good. But I did not care for the atmosphere, especially from an owner. read more

Unfortunately they were only open for takeout due to corona virus, but I was able to order from the menu. I ordered the Cuban sandwich and it was perfectly grilled with pickles and mustard seed. The sandwich was not too greasy, as sometimes occurs when there is grilled cheese. So tasty! In fact I'm going to say this is probably the best Cuban sandwich I've had. The server also kindly included extra pickles and carrot on the side. read more

I have been here before and had a few interesting lunch specials but Yesterday was crazy bad. I had the falafel special, the falafels were so hard I had to stab them with a fork and pull them apart. I still scratched the roof of my mouth like I just crammed a handful of stale Doritos into my mouth. The scant amount of yogurt and hummus spread over the store bought pita was no where near enough to soften up those rocks. Now I don't know for sure that the pitas were from the local Safeway...but they sure looked and tasted like they nailed the $0.99 special on the day old rack. I've done that myself, however I'm not charging 10.50 for 3 rocks on a pita. I guess they get a few points for using a few leaves of lettuce mix that didn't include romaine. Meh. read more

My husband and I stopped in as we were enjoying an afternoon in the area. This place is adorable. I loved the wine selection and had a difficult time choosing what to eat for lunch. We finally settled for the grilled cheese sandwich with the biggest macaroon ball I've even eaten. All was delicious! I would definitely eat here again! read more

Bodas catered our wedding and did above and beyond what we could have asked for. They made sure the day ran smoothly and we had nothing to worry about at any point in time.
