    Big portions! Katsu nice and crispy. We ordered on the kiosk which was simple and convenient, the front staff greeted us and let us know we can ask her for help if needed. Overall, it was nice and clean, but not sure if there was a high chair but luckily we brought our own everywhere we go!

    Look at the dirty cauliflower
    Jane C.

    Disgusting. For their "garlic butter shrimp" they use poor quality bay shrimps and it doesn't even taste like garlic or butter. It's just has an off taste. I got their fried cauliflower and got grossed out eating it because the cauliflower was so dirty, you can see THROUGH the tempura that they didn't clean the tempura. At LEAST cut off the dirty parts. Foul. Waste of money.

    Sadly we found the spot to be more disappointing than we what we originally anticipated. The service workers were nice, but sadly I don't think I'd visit again. My friend got herself the spicy sandwich and it turned out to be a sandwich that tasted like sweet and sour sauce. Two of my friends got the beef katsu within their rice dish expecting like a steak katsu, but they said it tasted like a boiled beef patty that had a fried outside. I got myself the sausage rice cakes and they were slightly crisp on the outside with a lightly poured sweet and sour sauce. I think only one friend out of a group of 9 was truly content with there meal. They got the tteobboki katsu, I think he had the best tasting item out of everyone's orders. With the price point and the quality we got, most of my friends gave the place a solid 2/5 sadly. I gotten myself the black garlic udon with the pork katsu. I thought the pork katsu was good, but it would have been nice if the katsu was put on the side instead of in the ramen since me and my friend both noticed that our katsu sank fast and was soggy as soon as we got it. The soup itself wasn't very flavorful and to add spice it costs an extra 25 cents for little to no spice taste in the broth. Some of the items we wanted were also sold out, to be fair we did get there around 7pm! With the average price point and mid food experience, I give this place a 3/5 so that it still has a fighting chance. It's a new establishment, give it a chance.

    Fried Calamari
    Takara H.

    Went here very excited to try the food and what I got ended up disappointing me. Dreary cold vibes in the place. Very plain. No personality. Very very long wait for our food. We got the Chicken Katsu plate, Calamari and the Katsudon bowl. Katsu tasted like nothing, totally bland. Rice was ICE cold. The 'Katsu' sauce tastes like straight up Heinz Ketchup. Calamari took 10 minutes to arrive after our main dishes came. Extremely rubbery. The Katsudon bowl was a much smaller portion then what was advertised. We never got our drinks when they said they would be able to get it to us shortly. 3 times. Doubt I'll come back. If I do ill probably give the poke bowl a shot.

    Disappointing Portions

    Disappointing Portions Didn't even eat yet and already giving one star. For $17 (+$2 tip), the portion is tiny -- barely any chicken. In Vegas, I pay $11.90 for three full thighs. I get Portland prices are higher, but this is a ripoff. Had I known, I'd have cooked at home. Not worth it.

    So so good definitely coming back!

    Five stars, and this one's an honorable mention that somehow turned into a regular habit…read more I'm talking about K-Pop at the Happy Valley food carts, and yeah, there's a reason we keep circling back like it owes us money. You ever go somewhere thinking you'll just grab a quick bite, and next thing you know you're planning your return before you've even finished chewing? That's this place. What I like is they don't box themselves in. You've got Korean, Hawaiian, and a little mix of everything going on. I lean Hawaiian most days, something about it just hits right, especially when you're not trying to go all in. Sometimes you're just grabbing food, maybe bringing something back for later, pacing yourself like a responsible adult. This is that kind of spot. It works with you, not against you. And here's the thing, I used to write those safe reviews. "It's cute. Nice service." That tells nobody anything. That's background noise. This place deserves better than that. This is a spot you actually remember. Friendly people, solid food, and a consistency that turns a casual stop into a routine. Happy Valley's already a great area, so you're starting off on the right foot just being there. But if you're walking into that food cart pod and wondering where to go, I'm telling you straight up, this is one of the top choices. No overthinking it. Take my word for it, or don't. Either way, you'll end up here eventually.

    This has become my favorite cart in the Happy Valley pod. The menu is an interesting mix of Korean,…read moreJapanese, and Hawaiian, which is nice to be able to mix it up each visit. My go-tos are the Shoyu or Teriyaki chicken plates, the Kalua Pork Plate, or the Bibimbap. My only do-betters are that the teriyaki chicken can sometimes be dry, and I wish both the chicken dishes came with a sauce. They do have sriracha packets if you ask. The plates come with rice, a small lettuce salad and dressing (could use a little more of that sometimes), and a mac salad with pretty simple black pepper seasoning. It's a good amount of food for the price. I also really appreciate, and choose to visit K-Bop, because they use the compostable clamshell containers, and not the wasteful single-use plastic like so many others. Recommended if you're stopping by his cart pod.

    I walk up to the front, and already the lady at the front is smiling as she watches us try to…read moredecide what delicious item we would like from her menu. "Let me know if you have any questions!". We had questions about her menu items, and she answered them nicely and thoroughly, in detail. Okay, so we order two things: the S3 and the Spicy Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen, and here's what U think about each: Tonkotsu Ramen: -The Meat doesn't have a huge initial, impactful taste, but the flavor settles in a couple seconds after you bite it and it's a very soft, warming feeling. -The Broth is where the spice is, and it's not like "oh my mouth is on fire" it's the type of spice that hits you in the back of the throat, so it's bearable but I couldn't chug it personally, I had to take sips which is nice for someone who devours their food like there's no tomorrow (like me). -The Noodles are.. just your typical Ramen noodles, nothing special to add there but nothing bad to say at all! -The Egg, although not marinated in soy sauce like some places do, was cooked well. The inside was soft and gooey, but the white was fully cooked. I have no complaints! -The Mushrooms added a nice texture to the noodles and the overall dish, and worked to make it even more satisfactory. The S3: -I don't have much to say because my cousin ordered it and I only had a few bites, but the veggies were cooked nicely... -The big boom about it was the noodles. If I had to describe it, I would say it's like.. an Orange Chicken type of Tater Tot, it was really unique and fun to eat. Next time I go, it'll be hard to decide what to order.. Okay, don't just take my word for it, go see for yourself! いただきます!

The broth had the perfect kick without overpowering the depth of the ramen, and everything came out hot and fresh. Parking was easy, food cart was easy to find! Portion size was generous, ingredients were on point, and the overall quality really stood out. If you're a fan of spicy ramen, this is a great recommendation. We'll definitely be back for more!

The pieces are fairly substantial, juicy & ultra-flavorful. We had a mix of spicy and soy & garlic. Space was a little tight for eating but cold water was provided. Service was typical counter-serve. We also had bulgogi fries, a smallish portion for the money with only a smattering of bulgogi beef. I wish this place could have gotten 5 stars but the value ain't there, though the taste is.

    I remember when Bonchon was just a random chicken place that opened up in California, its draw was…read morethat it was of a renowned Korean chain. Upon first bite you'll realize how different it is from traditional fried chicken, and now it is the flagship for most people's first foray into KFC ( Korean Fried Chicken). The location in Clackamas Town Center is of no exception, and their quality and speed are still up to par. It's a great casual place to have some fried chicken and snacks ( or even heavier meals) with the family or friends. Their service is like any other chain, don't expect anything stellar, but there are no complaints either. The food is consistent, fresh, hot, crunchy, and plenty of flavor no matter what you get. I recommend trying their original flavors the Spicy and Soy Garlic wings on your first venture, but if you're familiar already then dive into their more expansive menu! I haven't had a miss yet, though their specialty is definitely their wings. The rest of their menu doesn't miss, but they aren't top tier compared to dedicated Korean restaurants. I find this to be more satisfying than anything in the Clackamas food courts, so I recommend anyone who hasn't tried Bonchon to give a look!

    The food here is so unique and tasty! It's a super fun theme as well too…read more My boyfriend and I always get the loot fries, they're mega tiny crunchy shoestring fries cooked absolutely perfectly covered in Alabama white sauce, balsamic glaze, green onions, and bacon. I ordered the OG tacos and they were great! The tenders have the perfect ratio of breading to chicken, they're slaw is great which I find hard to come across at most restaurants nowadays as everyone tries to do something weird instead of keeping it classic, sweet, saucy, and crunchy. The buffalo sauce had the perfect amount of heat to it, and the blue cheese really brings the whole thing together. My boyfriend got the Scarface, he's a huge fan of the crack sauce, and the sandwich is huge! Once again perfectly breaded chicken, and A TON of onion rings. So many onion rings he couldn't even finish them all. He loved the slaw (he's super picky about it too). The bread also managed to hold the whole sandwich together which was impressive in itself. The lady who runs the cart (Christina herself possibly?) is super cool and kind. It seems like she's always there working and really cares about the quality of the food coming out which you can totally taste in the food.

    I don't like to judge a place on one dish but these Brussels sprouts are something else…read more I'm a big fan of the balsamic with them. I also love pumpkin seeds and the lady has a tree nut allergy. I love not just sprouts but the crispy leaves too. It's also a giant amount of sprouts. Very filling. My only issue was I felt the Parmesan cheese competes with the wrong notes in the sprouts if that makes sense. So many choices. But this is one to come back to.
