Solid without being too dense, pieces of pistachio throughout the cake, with a thick raspberry frosting that wasn't overbearingly sweet. I would definitely buy again! Service was fast and friendly. You order at the counter. There's a water station with cutlery and napkins, and we bussed our own table. Would definitely return!

The place gets pretty packed because who doesn't want a good pastry and coffee while listening to fantastic jazz. We were able to try the vanilla cream, puff and the cheesecake. I wish we didn't split the vanilla cream puff it was that good just have for yourself. The bakery is decorated really pretty and bright colors makes you feel like if you're in a Candyland. Stop by and try their desserts. They were so good. I forgot to take a picture.

Portland has a thriving pie scene so it was a must check-off item for me…read more We stopped by on Saturday afternoon after lunch and tried their "cupcake-style" pies. My parents, husband, and I shared the Marionberry and brown butter pecan pies. I love their individual pie size because it is the perfect amount to indulge without feeling overly guilty. The crust is a killer and the filling is decadent! My daughters split the pie crust cinnamon roll. That plate was cleared within a minute and there was not a piece of crumb to be spotted. The Laura Palmer is a lemonade and ruby nectar herbal tea. Very unique and refreshing for a hot summer day!

I had heard that Portland is famous for its food cart scene, so while I was visiting, I knew I had…read moreto experience it for myself. I decided to visit Hawthorne Asylum, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere reminded me of a night market, except with permanent food carts. It has a fun, lively vibe, and there are so many different food options that there's something for everyone. It's a great place to come with friends or family since everyone can choose something different. There's also a bar in the middle of the food cart pod. We didn't get a chance to try it because we had already ordered boba tea from another vendor, but it looked like a great place to relax and enjoy a drink. I'll definitely check it out the next time I'm back. Overall, Hawthorne Asylum is a fun spot with a great atmosphere and an excellent variety of food. It's well worth a visit if you're exploring Portland.

A visit to Portland is not complete without a visit to some food carts! This was our first time to…read morethis spot in particular and I loved how many options there were, with the large community tables in the center! They had the World Cup game playing too so this was the perfect spot to hang out. They also had bathrooms which is a bonus! There was a good variety of different types of food, so it was nice that we could all pick different things. Big fan of the vareniki from Pelmeni Pelmeni in the middle section! I appreciated that the vendors used beepers too so you could still wander off and order other things while you wait.

Lots of homelesspeople around which made my wife feel uncomfortable. We arrived a little after 8 PM with half of the carts closed. I think this would be a great place to visit if there were less homeless and more carts open.

Very good soft serve. I was happy…read more Nice luxurious, creamy taste and texture. Chocolate ganache had a nice intensity to it, sorta dark, a little salty. Perhaps could have used a bit more of it. And for $4, great deal. Sandwich was pretty good but not something I'd go out of my way for. The brie was mild. Marionberry jam was ok. Nice mix of sweet and tart. Decent bread.

I went to this place two days in a row to try more sundaes has a bit of a line but it goes pretty…read morequickly. The cheese and crack sundae has toasted marshmallow, chocolate, and cinnamon cracker crumbs. Omg the cinnamon crumbs are so good, that with the ice cream was really yummy (I'm a simple girl what can I say). The chocolate hardened into a chocolate shell and it was kind of only on the bottom of the cup so that was a little disappointing. The toasted marshmallow didn't add much, but maybe I'm biased bc I don't rlly care for toasted marshmallow ‍ Overall, the entire sundae is mainly a ton of vanilla ice cream. It's a big portion that I shared with someone else. Second time I went, I got the banana pudding sundae which was soooo good. I shared this with my friend and it was plenty. They give a good amount of banana pudding and you can tell it's quality. I saw bananas, the bread/wafer part, and it pairs nicely with the ice cream. Prob my favorite thing from this place. My other friend got the pbo which was also good. They layer oreo and peanut butter pudding so you get it all throughout the sundae which is nice. She also got an everything cookie which has literally everything in it. It was texturally interesting and not too sweet! Overall, good flavors and quality ice cream. The portions are a bit big and I wish they had half or even quarter sizes since these came in huge cups. At a certain point, the vanilla ice cream becomes flavorless bc there's so much of it but the sundaes were still pretty good!

Their Victoria pie is my happy place, blueberry flavor. It would likely be my last words, "Blueberry Victoria Pie... Lauretta Jean's..." RIP with Victoria Pie on my tongue. If that isn't heaven what is? Oh yeah don't have single pic to share as I have inhaled both individual slices and whole pies when I have received them. I cannot imagine anyone who has the self control to wait on their dessert long enough to snap a pic. If you do props to you for your impulse control. I think my neural wiring snaps and I devour it in a single breath, not unlike my Australian Shepherd's behavior when he sees any morsel... Family diner kind of ambiance albeit I have only taken pieces or wholes to go. If anyone has been to NYC Two Little Red Hens, similar vibe and similar level of deliciousness, long lines, and quality desserts.

The packaging was weird... just chocolate sticky smears all over the outside of the box... and not even a bag to at least stop from getting your car sticky from the mess.

So I've been going to sweet and salty for about a year now and absolutely nothing has changed. I…read morethink that's the best review I can give. They definitely have new and inspiring ideas but the quality and the flavors haven't changed a bit. Elbe (the co-owner) is also the Mastermind / Chef and comes up with crazy ass recipes that just smack. I could talk all day about their sweets but the absolute bomb for me is their chicken salad. The chicken salad sandwich at sweet and salty is -hands down- the best chicken salad sandwich in Portland period!!! It's got big chunks of chicken and a little sweet from some cranberry, some crunch with celery and Walnut and then some peppery spice that smacks you a little bit, but not too much. They keep it real simple and have a great white bread they put it on and, frankly, I can't get enough. I usually get one once a week or so depending and it never gets old. So one year and going strong. Definitely check them out!!!
