The person who answered the phone was incredibly nice! Very easy to order. We ordered two pounds of chicken: one of each flavor. The pieces were massive, with plenty of meat. They were hot and covered in sauce. So many places skimp on the sauce, but FOMO did not disappoint. The chicken pieces were good... no gross stringy pieces. They were huge too! I could only have a few pieces before I was super full. The flavors were excellent. For once, I think I liked the soy garlic better than the spicy one. I'm a massive spicy fan, but the soy garlic was amazing! We'd definitely come back!

When I pulled the meat off the bone, they came off super easy and you know that they had cooked these wings perfectly!

The kalbi-style beef ribs are straight-up . Perfectly marinated, slightly sweet with that savory,…read moresmoky char that hits immediately. The meat is tender but still has a nice bite--not falling apart, just how it should be. Every piece has that caramelized edge that makes you slow down and actually enjoy it. And then you get the full plate situation... rice + mac salad = balance. The mac salad is creamy, slightly tangy, and honestly just as addictive as the ribs. Classic Hawaiian comfort done right.

Da Kine Noodles - more veggies than noodles, which I loved. Nice subtle flavor. Would be great to get as a side OR in a combo with chicken. 808 Fried Chicken plate - bite sized fried chicken pieces with rice and Mac. Great flavor, nice a crisp but juicy inside, Mac salad has onions and/or peas which is not my favorite but that's a personal thing. Friendly staff and quick service. Nice to have them close by to try other items on their menu. Recommend to go/take out.

** - A Taste of Home in the Heart of Portland**…read more After trekking across this great (and sometimes questionably flavored) nation, I've learned one thing: **nothing beats the taste of home**. And by home, I mean the fiery, fragrant, soul-warming flavors of Lao and Thai cuisine--the kind that makes you close your eyes and teleport straight back to family dinners where your aunties judged your rice-eating skills. Enter **this glorious food cart** in Portland--a beacon of hope in a city that sometimes thinks "spicy" means "lightly dusted with black pepper." The moment I heard the owner speak Lao, I knew I was in good hands. (Also, major bonus: I got to practice my native tongue, because if I don't, my grandma will *absolutely* call me out at the next family gathering.) Now, let's talk about the **larb**--oh, that beautiful, herbaceous, lime-kissed masterpiece. It's the kind of dish that makes you want to whisper *"sabai dee"* to yourself between bites. And if you skip the **fried sticky rice with mango** for dessert, we can't be friends. It's like eating golden clouds of happiness. Portland, you've got your artisanal donuts and kale smoothies, but *this*? This is the real deal. **10/10, would abandon my adventurer lifestyle to eat here every day.** Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go lie down in a food coma and dream of chilies.

I circled through downtown about 3 times until I found something about 1/4 mile away. Stopped in and I saw lots of options, but a friend had told me I should check this place out before I go back home. Let's say, it wasn't a waste of my time at all! Jasmine (the owner) was really sweet and friendly, talked about the menu with me a little and answered any questions I had. We talked about home for a bit and I mentioned my co worker had told me to come check this place out for a while I've just been busy. I wanted to try everything but I settled for a fried musubi and a katsu musubi, and while chatting I had mentioned I assumed that the sandwiches were gonna be like the ones with lettuce and all the deluxe options... she had been preparing her lunch, one of her menu items! A chicken sando. She had no problem offering me half (thank you, lol) honestly it tasted amazing. The flavors were great and it was a cute little spot in a crowded food hall that actually had space for lots of people. I also asked about good coffee and both the owner and her employee had immediately said "upstairs, is the best coffee" and I laughed because I knew the name was best coffee but they said it's definitely worth it. ! Thank you for my last downtown Portland snack before going home !

So my mind was expecting cherry flavor and it definitely had a floral flavor to it because of the cherry blossoms.

Not inexpensive but it was a treat.

I had seen something on TV the other day and so plate lunches were a constant thought. It was just coincidence that I happened to be in this part of town on my lunch break. Walking out of the bank across the street to see the sign Hawaiian Grill in all its black and yellow glory was like seeing an oasis after being stranded in the desert for a few days. Or so I imagine. No idea how long this cart has been open. Probably not long as there aren't any Yelp reviews about it. There were a few other people waiting for food here, so someone else aside from me knows about it. I went simple. The thing about plate lunches I saw on TV talked about Shoyu Chicken. That is what was on my mind and that is what I ordered. $6.50 gets you the regular portion and that comes with 2 portions of white rice and a nice helping of mac salad. Also a chopped up bed of cabbage under your chicken. Shoyu for those that don't know is basically a soy sauce chicken. Very simple, but when done right can be really good. This place does it oh so right. I took my meal back to work and jumped in. The mac salad was very fresh tasting. Can't say I'm a huge mac salad fan, but this was good. The rice was rice. White. Boring. Boring white rice, but that is what you get in a plate lunch. The chicken was the star here. They don't give you a huge portion. That was kind of a bummer, but the dish is only $6.50 so I'm not complaining. The meat was fall off the bone tender. I could barely pick up the piece without it falling apart in my hands. Perfectly marinated. Not too salty which can definitely be a problem with this dish. Moist and very flavorful. This is how chicken should be prepared. I hope this review gets more Yelpers to seek and try this place out.

After seeing that Chez Dodo was closed and seeing that there was a decent number of people waiting…read morein line at Hawaiian Grill, we decided to give it a shot. I got the kalua pork, which comes with two scoops of rice and a scoop of macaroni salad. The pork was piping hot, but verging on dry with not much flavor. I had to add quite a bit of teriyaki sauce to the pork and the rice. That being said, I'm not an expert on Hawaiian food by any means, so I'm not sure how kalua pork is supposed to taste. All I know is that I usually prefer more flavor and tenderness. This place does have its positive points, though. The macaroni salad was really tasty, the portions are quite large and satisfying, and service is great. When there are so many food carts in Portland to choose from, though, I doubt I will be making a return visit.
