    Cheese Corn
    Steve V.

    I had the cheese corn the first time as I wasn't super hungry. It was creamy, cheesy, and perfectly seasoned. The next time I went I tried the fried chicken. This was incredible! Very juicy and flavorful. It has a good spice level without being HOT. The service was quick and there is plenty of seating around.

    Spicy Pork Belly
    Amanda M.

    I've heard a lot about this food cart. I was really excited to try their food since I've had their kimchi before. Their kimchi is delicious. I tried their spicy pork belly which comes with purple rice, pork fried kimchi, green onion salad, pickled radish and grilled onions. The spicy pork belly has a nice gochujang glaze on it, good amount of spice but was a bit salty for me. The pickled radish and the green onion salad did help cut the saltiness. Definitely having a drink with it helps. There's a good amount of pork belly, lots of flavor. I liked the grilled onions, and rice was good. You really feel like you're eating kbbq here, except it's on a personal portion size. I'll be back to try their fried chicken.

    pork belly and grilled kimchi

    A food truck has no business being this tasty, let alone the huge portions of pork belly. The GRILLED kimchi was also an amazing surprise - deadass awoke a sense memory of when my mom threw it on the tabletop grill at home when i was a kid. Wish I had more stars to give, eat with confidence! -authentic Korean person

    This cart serves up some deliciousness at the CORE carts. The Gochujang hot honey chicken was perfectly fried, with just the right amount of sauce on top to keep the crisp. Served with pickled jicama, some bomb-ass kimchee, and purple rice. Two of us shared this; it was a hearty portion.

    Pork Belly Korean BBQ Bowl

    This was my first experience at Doyaji. Easy to order online to pick up our food. The space is clean with some tables to sit at. The truck itself looks great and staff were friendly and helpful. We ordered the plumb garlic chicken, Gochujang hot chicken and the pork belly. The food came out a little after the time I had requested but they were pretty busy. I was handed the bag holding the boxes and I thought "this has weight to it", I got home and unloaded. This was a lot of food! Leftovers are my friend so no problem here, as long as the foods good. It was! The sauces were great and I appreciate being able to add as much heat or sweetness that I wanted on the chicken. The chicken was crunchy on the outside and tender juicy chicken on the inside. The pork belly was pretty good but I would stick to the chicken next time.

    Spicy Honey Fried Chicken
    Elisha J.

    Holy spicy chicken Batman! This place was delicious. I decided on the sweet honey spicy fried chicken bowl, and wow! First, there was tons of food, so much I was able to share with my husband and still have food leftover. Second, the fried chicken was crispy, sweet, spicy, and moist, it literally could not have been better. The purple sticky rice was good, and the surprise was the green onion salad, which is tangy and light, and went with everything. Classic kimchi rounded everything off. Service was great, they were friendly and quick, and they were outside Living Haus brewery at the time with gave made the environment great!

    I was lucky enough to experience Doyaji while attending a Harvest Kickoff Party at Cho Wines in Hillsboro. Service was fast & friendly and the atmosphere was vibrant. And wow, the food is incredible! I had the pork belly bbq bowl which included: pork, griddled onions, purple rice, pickled daikon and kimchi. The pork was tender, super flavorful and perfectly cooked and the griddled onions really set it off. And their kimchi, omg, it was the best kimchi I've had in a while!

    Spicy Pork Belly
    Holly T.

    Delicious!! I love me some pork belly and kimchi, and Doyaji does it well. At first I thought the price point was slightly high, but then I saw the box... it was stuffed full of food and you get a ton of pork belly, not just filler. The kimchi was amazing! I don't know if they make their own, but if they do, I'd buy it! They also had two specials, and my partner wanted to try them both. The first was a honey mustard fried chicken thing. It came with kimchi and purple rice too. It was good but not my favorite of the bunch. The other was a bulgogi burger, and it was fabulous! So full of flavor! I hope this special comes around again because it was delicious. Friendly service. We didn't wait too long either.

    Korean Fried Chicken $16
    Ben C.

    Maybe they were busy but it took about 25 minutes to get our order. Slightly over-fried, green onion salad would be better served to the side instead on top of the chicken which sogged the breading. Fresh radish kimchi. Really the downer was how small the portion was for the price.

    Doyaji comes Korean mom and dad approved. They're LEGIT and so worth it. The first time I had it, I had just moved to Portland and didn't know what's what. My parents were in town and I wanted to take them to a few Korean spots because you know Korean parents can't go long without their kimchi and rice. We checked out a few brick and mortars but I was surprised to hear that my mom liked Doyaji the best! Maybe it was also because the chef looks like he could be their kid and she just loves supporting young entrepreneurs being one herself. Oh! And also a fave spot for the @thekoreanmama (local pdx Korean mom and son food influencers)! What can I say? The food was really good. On that first visit, we got the pork belly and the plum garlic fried chicken. Pork was grilled to perfection and loved all the sides that come with it. And the fried chicken was so juicy and flavored just right. We were also tickled by the sweet rice cake dessert and my parents praised their creativity for their take on it. The only thing my parents didn't like was the location at Holy Ghost because they didn't like the pervasive smell of alcohol and loud music but what can you do ‍ it was fine for me! Ok but you guys. What you need to do is follow them on IG and track what their specials are because it's the specials for me. Recently they had a shrimp burger and a bulgogi burger on the menu and omg I was only able to try the shrimp burger but it was SO GOOD no exaggeration. I've had many a shrimp burgers in my life but never one with such a thick and juicy shrimp patty. It was seriously the best $13 I've spent since moving here. I went there alone and as I was eating it I just kept murmuring to myself how good it was. I chatted up the group next to me who were eating the bulgogi burger and they said it was really good too. I told them shrimp burger is where it's at though and one of them promptly went and ordered one it was so good I actually walked up to the window and begged them to please keep bringing it back. If I wanted to be extra, I might bring a slice of American cheese with me to add bc that's just how I like it (don't judge me!). After this transcendent experience, I told anyone who would listen about this shrimp burger. Please bring it back!!! Also, like some of the other yelpers have noted, order online right when their menu opens and pick up. I just went right at opening but still had to wait half an hour bc they were flooded with online orders. Love you, Doyaji!

    Da food. Spicy chicken
    Joseph M.

    Great fried chicken because I loved it, authentic kimchi because I hated it. If you like kimchi, you want to get in here and have this. And no matter what else, order the chicken. Boneless thighs, fried southern style. It was moist, crispy, and delicious. It's a food truck so wherever they are is a good place to be, and the space looked great. The service was perfect, polite nice, friendly and quick. Good eats sold here.

    korean fried chicken
    Kyle C.

    A lil underwhelming, the portion size of the korean fried chicken seemed a lil skimpy although this food cart was at a very busy spot (Portland Night Market) The service was great and the food did not take too long but I can't say it was good enough for us to crave and come back to again. The breading of the chicken was katsu chicken like-- the sauce made it much better however we weren't too impressed with the kimchee

    Spicy pork belly (round 2)
    Justin R.

    Doyaji has EASILY been one of my top 3 favorite food trucks/carts. Feel so very lucky to have this in the weekly rotation of trucks to visit my office, so anytime they come by (which is not super often), I will always get it. Always be sure to line up early for lunch because they will sell out FAST. The menu is short but sweet. Opting for quality over quantity, which works entirely in their favor. Without a doubt, my favorite is the spicy pork belly. For being their most spendy option, they deliver a full meal... heck, likely even two meals. Juicy, tender, bursting with flavor. It is heaven in a to-go container.

Two bibimbaps to go: one was tofu and the other was spicy pork. Spicy pork is not spicy but looks like it is. Good taste, so it's marinated well and the meat isn't tough to chew, like some other places. I loved the spicy pork bibimbap though. All fresh ingredients! They give a lot of vegetables, which is so nice, because other places are very sparing with their ingredients. I'm usually left with so much rice at the end. However, this place did a good job giving the right amount of ingredients. They also gave a small cup of miso soup - thank you! Would get this again! My husband enjoyed his tofu version. If you're someone who wants spice, add some of the red sauce they give you in a cup. I was very happy the spicy pork wasn't spicy, but I liked being able to control any spice with the red sauce.

Location: This bar is on the first floor of the Hyatt House Portland / Downtown. Ambiance: Pretty quiet and chill. There weren't a lot of people there so it was really easy to get a drink. Drink options: I really loved how they circle around different local beer on tap. They also have a few bottled beer too. They have a cast amount of liquor too. Surprisingly, they had a new bottle of Hennessy when we finished the first (during our stay). Usually a lot of bars in hotels don't have it, so that was a major plus. Bartenders: We met three while we were there. All of them super kind, friendly, and informative of the surrounding area. They gave us lots of tips on what to see, eat, and drink. They were really down to earth people. Pricing: I thought it to be fairly reasonable for a hotel, however I might just be jaded from Bay Area pricing (yikes). What I loved about this bar is that we were able to just chat with the bartender. I didn't feel like I had to go back to my room with my drink (which is usually the case). I was able to talk to a few other people sitting at the bar too. Of course all from out of town, but still nice talking to other friendly strangers. They do serve food at this place, but I didn't really get a chance to try it it since there was soooo many other food joints in the area.

The best thing about it was the location, beautiful area right on the water and the restaurant itself was pretty. The food was fine, but nothing really stood out for me. Maybe I am spoiled living in Los Angeles where there are so many Dim Sum places and dumpling houses. The concept with this restaurant is that it is family style, so it is meant to share, which is great, but the portions I would are small for family style. The noodles are enough for one, dumplings and potstickers, I guess for a small family may be ok, but we had a large group, so we had to order 3-4 of each thing just so people could have some. Probably my favorite thing on the menu were the sweet and spicy cucumbers, although not spicy at all, which was a trend. The dishes that were supposed to be spicy were not, even when we asked for the chili oil, that somehow did not have a spice level to it that was measurable. We ordered cucumbers, noodles, potstickers, dumplings and baos all have options for fried and steamed we got some of each, fried rice, beef pancake rolls, five spice beef, spicy beef (which both tasted the same) and some other items. The best things for me were the cucumbers, the fried potstickers and the jasmine tea. They bring you the dishes as they are ready so the service is constant as they come out. Can be a little slow, but our server was nice and kept track of everything for us and made sure our drinks were full, thank you. Atmosphere - 5 Service- 4 Food - 3 If the location and atmosphere was not so amazing, probably would have given a 3 based on the food, not bad and some high points, but mostly just average IMO. Great vibes here though and would probably come back for that alone and see if it is a different experience with a smaller group or a single family. Enjoy!
