    We tried the tea leaf salads from Burmese Delight. For a food truck, the flavors were pretty good -- fresh and satisfying. However, the price felt a bit high for what we got. Decent experience overall, but not sure I'd go out of my way for it again.

    Food 4/5 Service 4/5 Ambiance 5/5 I actually saw this food cart featured in a Mike Chen video, so my bf and I decided to give it a try and it was really good! We originally wanted to try the beef and potato curry, but they were out, so we went with the chicken as an alternative. The dish itself was simple, with just chicken, potatoes, curry sauce, and paratha but it was packed with flavor. The curry's rich taste paired with the tenderness of the chicken was unlike anything I've had before tasted very hearty. To enjoy it, I shredded some chicken and added it to the paratha, along with a little bit of pickled daikon radish and carrot. It made for the perfect bite, as the pickled veggies balanced out the richness. I'll definitely be back to try the beef curry and will continue to keep this spot in mind whenever I'm nearby, good comfort food overall was very satisfied!

    Burmese Delight is our favorite food cart at the Asylum food cart pods located in the Hawthorne district in PDX. Delicious food. Portions could be more generous. Service was fast, friendly and efficient.

    It's been a while since I've had Burmese food, so I was excited to see Burmese Delight in the little food court. I had a hard time deciding between the chicken samosas, the Shan noodle salad, and the tea leaf salad, but I ended up choosing the tea leaf salad. Unfortunately, this tea leaf salad did not hit the spot. It mostly tasted like fish sauce and sesame oil. I've also never seen corn in this dish when I've had it at other places, and I didn't really care for it. The salad was pretty oily, which is usually fine, but the staff was a bit stingy with napkins and only gave me one, so it was hard to eat cleanly. Maybe I would've had a better experience with the Shan noodle salad or the samosas, but I'm not sure if I'm open to giving this place another chance.

    Great food truck in a food truck village. They have maybe a dozen dishes, with clearly marked vegan items, including classic Burmese dishes like a tea leaf salad and Burmese chickpea tofu. We split an order of each, plus a Burmese noodle salad. (Each dish was $12.) The food took a little while to be ready but it was worth the wait. Every dish was fantastic, especially the two classic dishes: wonderfully integrated flavours and textures. Reasonable portions for the price. Fantastic spot.

    I'm always surprised I haven't reviewed a place when I've been there more than once. The tea leaf salad I had in the past was super hearty with a nice range of textures. I tried the shan noodle salad recently which was quite tasty. I enjoyed the subtle complexity of the dish. It definitely benefited from the hot oil to round out the bright flavors. The noodles were slightly warm with the perfect chew which was lovely on a cold evening.

    Was in town on a day trip to Portland and was craving some Burmese food. I found this food truck listing on Google and I'm so glad I did. The prices are very reasonable for a generous serving of food. My go to dish, the fermented tea leaf salad did not disappoint. It was bright, acidic, and vibrant and with a nice crunch from the peanuts and sunflower seeds. The dish paired well with piping hot and crispy vegan samosas with sweet chili sauce. The service was great. Definitely a new favorite!

    So delish! I highly recommend the chickpea tofu salad. The service was a little slow, but other than that it was great!

    Burmese Delight was a delight to say the least. I had the Shan Noodle Salad and it was full of flavor. The service was amazing and the beautiful young lady that helped me went above and beyond for my order. I wanted an extra kick and she did not disappoint. The place itself was super chill and full of variety. Come and try Burmese Delight for this amazing dish.

    WOW Hawthorne Asylum was so so busy on a Sunday afternoon at 3!! I decided on Burmese Delight to try some unique Burmese food. I got the Shan Noodle Salad. The noodles were delicious! A sorta pad Thai-y tasting rice noodle dish with lots of veggies in it. It was sweet and sour and so so satisfying. The portion was very sizable for $10! I also got the Samusar/samosa side which is fried with curry/potatoes inside ($6 for 4) - very tasty and great value. Would highly recommend if you're at the Hawthorne Asylum food trucks! Great value for taste!

    When I ordered the beef and potato curry I was worried since the chunks are so big I wouldn't be able to eat it without looking like an animal. But the meat fell apart and was SO GOOD. Super quick and the lady was super nice. I can't recommend enough

    One day I didn't budget my time properly so I was looking for lunch that wasn't fast food that I…read morecould eat in the car. Fish and chips to the rescue. I got the cod. It had a panko crust which sometimes I prefer to batter. They were a little bit salty for my taste but ever since I got COVID lots of things have tasted salty so take that with a grain of salt I'm not a tartar sauce guy but this is some great sauce. I feel like later I got a piece of tarragon(?) out of my teeth and reminded me of the herby yummy sauce. I scoffed at first at the chips. Very non uniformly cut but surprisingly all well cooked. I don't know if it's they type of potato but the skin was really off putting. But solid toothsome chips that a splash of vinegar helps a lot. If I end up in a similar position again I'll definitely consider coming back.

    Friendly owners. Sizzling fresh food. Price was decent for a food cart serving seafood. I got the…read morelarge serving for $16 and that was a good choice. I came after a review I read on Eater for FoPo area eats. I'm not a huge fried food fan but this place was good. I got the Steelhead trout fish and chips. Wait was ok they give you a buzzer so you can stroll around the food court. Took about 10 mins not bad. The locally sourced steelhead was a delicious surprise. Tender, juicy fish with crispy breading. Good seasoning. Fries were thicker so not as crispy but still hearty. 3 medium sized pieces of fish. They included ketchup for the fries as well as malt vinegar and tartar sauce for authentic fish dip. Wedge of lemon, too! All in a earth-friendly cardboard box. They take credit just fine. Very convenient location at Carts on Foster just down the street from where I was staying. So I walked back and enjoyed there. If you're staying you could probably cruise over to any local breweries or the bar cart for a beer to complement the fried food. Good time!!!
