Best in the area!!! We always go here for pre-gaming and after the bars. It is good any time of day or night. Sa'ad is amazing at what he does. Incredible food at good prices, wonderful service. read more

Me and my husband are visiting from NM and our hotel is a 5 minute walk down the road from Moonlight. In our first night here we impulsively stopped for dolmas on our walk back to the hotel from the waterfront and we DEMOLISHED those things as soon as we got into our room. These are seriously the best dolmas ever! My husband loves dolmas and I'm not the biggest fan of them, but when I tell you I LOVED these! On our last night in Portland we specifically went back for another plate of dolmas! I wish we would've tried other items from the menu, but based on our experience I'm sure the other items are just as amazing. The man running the truck was also incredibly nice. My husband struck up conversation with him about his country and we got to know him a bit better. This truck deserves all the customers! Definitely check it out if you're in Portland! read more

Very good food large portions and the owner was very nice definitely recommend this place walkable from most hotels in Portland.

Second time at Moonlight Mediterranean and it was even better than the first. The shawarma bowl was AMAZING. The rice and falafels were perfectly prepared, and the sauce really tied everything together. Definitely coming back. read more

I'VE BEEN CONVERTED. You guys. BEST LAMB GYRO IN PORTLAND. Most of my life I've stayed away from meats outside of the basic chicken, beef, turkey, etc. but WOW. After a friend got me the lamb gyro from here and tricked me into believing it was beef, I have been converted to LOVING lamb gyro. I have been here several times since and the meat is perfectly seasoned, flavorful, does not taste to game-y or tough. HIGHLY recommend their lamb gyro "with everything" and you will not be disappointed. Don't trust me? Look at how this food cart is the busiest one. I've also tried the Mediterranean cart just 3 slots down and while pretty good, why settle when you can have the best here? I also recommend another cart called Shawarma Express. Their lamb gyro is also amazing--a close second to here! If you come here late at night, it's pretty sketchy but there are usually lots of people coming and going so you don't feel too out of place. There's also plenty of free parking late at night so that's a plus too. Otherwise, it's street parking or a pay-for-parking lot right behind this cart. read more

Moonlight Mediterranean Food - THE BEST LAMB GYRO - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This is one of the BEST chicken shawarmas that I've ever had. Price is reasonable $13 + fries under $20. Portion is outrageously abundant and so packed with flavors. What makes this shawarma stand out is the chicken marinade mixing with the white sauce. So flipping good. The owner is fantastic as well. This cart is FIRE!! read more

I got the beef wrap. Pretty damn good! I'm the type of person who gets turned off when a rinky food cart has chopped or ground beef that is weird. Wasn't the case here. I thought it was awesome. Despite being chopped into very small bits, it still was somehow pretty juicy. No weird fatty bits that are hard to chew. And the flavor was great. I don't quite know how to explain it. Definitely seasoned well with salt, but it also had maybe like a subtle sweetness to it. Maybe some sort of added umami too. The tzatziki sauce was pretty good too. The wrap itself was just average. I guess you can't expect a guy running a food cart to be making em fresh though. I was a little bit disappointed in the price + serving size combo. A little expensive, a little small. $13 for the wrap and I needed to get something else after because I was still hungry. A water bottle was only $1 though. That tells me that the somewhat high $13 price is probably just because ingredients are expensive nowadays. If they were trying to play hardball with maximizing profit the water wouldn't be $1. read more

Great service, incredible falafel, outstanding salad, and the Baklava was also so dense and rich and tasty.

Amazing food cart across from the Hi-Lo Hotel. Mediterranean food... the Falafel is amazing! Super light and airy, almost pillow-like! The owner is super hard working and does everything himself. All food is homemade and absolutely delicious. He is open very long hours, sometimes until 3 or 4 am! Highly recommend! It's not your ordinary food cart! read more

Oh my gosh, such wonderful food, wonderful service and wonderful people!! Absolutely the best Falafel in the U.S. !!! My new go to for food anytime!! read more

I love how the food was prepared to order. Fresh and hot. The flavors were spot on. I only ate about a third of my chicken Saj and was full (nice portions!) read more

Late night, 10pm, order of a gyro and souvlaki plate delivered to wrong address by GrubHub (my mistake, sent to address across the street from my hotel). Even though we had to walk across and down the street to retrieve or meal 25 minutes after it was recorded delivered, food was still warm. Potions were okay. If you're hungry, definitely order a starter or share a 3rd dish. Tasty but did not . Found out there are similar trucks to order from in the same area when we ate at Huber's the following night (btw, don't order the fish and chips or the bread pudding at Huber's if you go...yuck!). I would try a couple more truck before going back... just to see if I could find that wow factor. read more

Sharp metal twisty tie cooked in with my food. Owner denied affiliation like a coward. Almost ate it cus in the dark it looked like an onion. Do with this info what you will read more

Got the chicken over rice . It was amazing . Flavor on the chicken was great and the rice too was really great . Came with I think a white garlic sauce on top , and a bit of a spicy sauce which I loved . Came with hummus that was the best hummus I've ever had. And tzatziki that was also the best tzatziki I've ever had , thought it was pretty unique tazizki because of how thick it was and how it had bigger strips of cucumber . The man behind it all was really nice and friendly and I enjoyed talking to him too . All of this for only 14$ . Amazing . If I'm ever in Portland again I'll be returning . read more

Moonlight Mediterranean Food - Chicken over rice - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Hands down best Mediterranean food in the city pumping out of a little food cart in the heart of Downtown Portland. Falafel is some of the best I've ever had and the best in PDX don't @ me. The Kafta is so good that I have to always add a side Kebab to my Falafel plate. Choosing just one of them is not even an option anymore for me, I know I must have both! I'm not a fan of Cucumber at all, that's why I opt out on the Tzatziki side and double down on the Hummus. I've heard from friends that the Tzatziki is not to be passed up on so if you are a Cucumber fan than the Tzatziki may be a must try for you. read more

Had a beef shwarma wrap. Loaded. Wow, they do stuff a lot in the wrap! Meat quality and taste was spot on. Will be back again. Oh, this store is located with a bunch of other trucks, so you can walk the block and see what you like. I had my heart set on shwarma, so had to try here. read more

Like the name suggests, Moonlight Mediterranean Food Truck is the perfect spot for a late-night bite in Portland, Oregon. The vibrant flavors are a delightful treat after a night out. We love to eat here once in a while; the gyros are packed with succulent meat and fresh veggies, and the baklava is a sweet, flaky masterpiece. The truck is a beacon of hospitality that never disappoints, offering warm, friendly service no matter the hour. A must-visit for anyone craving authentic Mediterranean delights! read more

I don't know what to say. I got a pita and it was the best one ever. Lamb, maybe lamb and beef. Anyways, 10/10

Excellent falafel! It was very flavorful and delicately spiced. Completely enjoyed my meal!

Outstanding food and nice people! A perfect combination for downtown Portland revival.

Disappointed. I ordered a chawarma. First I saw that the meat was a deep frozen instead of being in a spit roasted. The bread was looking more to a pancake than a Lebanese or any oriental bread. read more

So delicious!! The food was fresh and so good. I'm glad I found this hidden gem. Will eat here again.

So delicious! We ordered the chicken over rice and beef shawarma and I would highly recommend.

Stopped by after a night out and wow, they are so worth the trip! I called to make sure it was still open (we got there at 2am) and yes they were! The owner was so friendly and he made sure to cater to all of our needs! Got their lamb gyro and it was made to order so the meat was hot and juicy, the vegetables crisp and refreshing, the wrap itself soft, chewy, and warm. The sauce on top was literally and figuratively the cherry on top! Creamy and flavorful, I literally stuffed my face because of how intensely delicious the gyro. I'm already looking forward to my next dose of their gyro, and maybe I'll get to try some other things on the menu too! read more

Best gyro I've had in America since my family's favorite spot closed in Seattle. I will be returning to this food cart every time I visit Portland in the future, the owner and chef is wonderful to talk to and the ingredients are very fresh and prepared quickly. The falafel plate was full of flavor and the falafel have the perfect texture, I wish I could move the whole operation to my neighborhood because I could really eat here every day. read more

This place is freaking great and open until the wee hours of the morning. We came here for our first night in Portland and ordered a koftka saj and beef gyro. Both were absolutely delicious, though I prefer Shawarma Express at another pod of food trucks. I found that the ordering was a bit of a mess with people coming in with Ritual and postmates (or whatever) and there were two windows so parties would go up to both windows to order. It was a bit chaotic. Also, this place is a bit pricier than other Mediterranean carts, fyi. I found the food good, but I think I'd rather stick to Shawarma Express, which had slightly better food and less confusion. read more

Nice and clean place. Best place to eat a good middle Eastern food. Lamb shank, beef burger., lamb mandi and beef kabab, they are really good. Nice,quiet and calm place. Owner and family they are good host. read more

The food is excellent! Love the chicken or lamb over rice. Hummus and tzatziki are tasty.

Love this place.. it's open until 4:00 am.. which is nuts.. they make this dish called the saj which is basically a Lebanese burrito with no nice or beans it comes in veggie, lamb, beef and chicken meats, either spicy or non.. the roll is then grilled so the outside is perfectly crispy. I try and stop here every time I head to pdx read more

Fresh and damn delicious!! Great energy from the owner and very nice! 10/10 will be back again. HUGE portions

Late night Menchie's got you down. Hit up this joint. Although half of us were drunk as drunk gets the other half remember it just fine. Ordered the chicken kebab but switched to the chicken and rice. I didn't see the picture that showed the white sauce on it and he gladly made us another. Although I hate having to send stuff back I am happy to say he offered to make things right and that goes along way. As for the food, the chicken is some of the best chicken we have every had. We were definitely not expecting this place to be so good. The chicken had the perfect char on it. My group may not remember the night but they remember the chicken so that is definitely saying something. read more

Great food, lovely staff. We had a wonderful meal and it's a great value. Cant wait to come back.

Craved for a rice meal downtown and stumbled upon this corner food truck. Got the Kufta Over Rice & Lamb Over Rice for me and the hubs. Both were very good! We honestly couldn't stop talking about it even after we finished eating. Chef was super friendly too. We're definitely ordering again soon!!! read more
