So salty (and I have a high salt tolerance), so maybe choose a different filling other than spam. For about $15, not sure that it's worth it. Maybe I'll try the noodles next time. Several tables inside and outside. They have a single stall restroom. Place was busy on a Sunday afternoon -- prepare to wait about 15 minutes for a jian bing to come out.

We loved this location and have been here a few times. We often go to the location in SE Portland…read more We ordered from a kiosk. There are pictures and pricing. If you make an account, there are discounts if you spend x amount and obtain points within their system. It's actually pretty cool if you come and dine at this location. We ordered kai lan, pan fried buns, braised pork over rice and an order of wonton noodles soup. The Kai Lan was a bit bitter. I only had a few pieces. The pan fried buns were decent. The braised pork over rice has always been a favorite of mine. I often order this one all of the time. My boyfriend had the wonton noodles soup. The broth was so good and clean. Overall it's a good dining experience. The interior seating are standardized wood seating and wood table. There is a large table with nicer seating.

You can place your order on the tablet and the food comes out pretty quickly! The service is so friendly and they are super helpful if you have questions or need anything extra. We grabbed the pea shoots, the veggie dumplings, the sesame noodles, and the jianbing. The pea shoots are so so so good! Highly recommend as the green vegetable of choice :P The star of the show for me was the jianbing though -- literally crispy, crunchy, hot savory and so umami. Could eat 10 of those without noticing; they're also huge so you can definitely split one. The sesame noodles were tasty but I will say I was sad that there were 0 other vegetarian noodle dishes; kinda wished there was a hot vegetarian noodle option rather than cold sesame noodles which were good but not the best option for an overcast Portland day. I will say the noodle portions were VERY generous. The veggie dumplings were fine, not bad but not good. They were filled well but a tad bland and my friend said she enjoys their meat filled dumplings much much more. All in all, cute spot with a nice variety of options. Street parking in the area isn't too bad but plan accordingly during busier times! Swing by and grab a jianbing, you will absolutely not regret it~

The menu was small so it was quick to order even with the kiosk. The wait for the food wasn't bad either, we ordered, ate and was out of there within an hour. Everything we ordered was delicious! The gahn-jang steak was charred to perfection and you can taste the savory and sweetness of the ganjang. The corn cheese was also amazing; first one I had that's seasoned the cheese itself. The bulgogi was good too but very basic. I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu!

When my Yelp pal Ron writes a review, I tend to read extra carefully. The last time I was in…read morePortland I wanted to try Bing Mi but they weren't open when I could go. Fast forward to today when my flight got in early and I saw they were open. Came in around 11ish when many of the food carts looked like they were just starting to prepare food. Found Bing Mi behind the Beer Garden stage. After looking at the menu, I couldn't pass up trying the roast duck. I ordered the loaded roast duck Jiang Bing with mild sauce. I paid with my card, was given a number and took a seat at the communal wooden picnic tables. When I got my food, I could see it was a solid amount. Two Jiang Bing halves. The only thing I didn't really see was the roast duck. Before I get into that though, I just want to say you can tell how much care the people who work here put into their food. If there's a line, they don't rush the process. The crepe outside is perfect and the crispy wonton pieces in the middle are the star of my Jiang Bing. Their cucumbers are fresh. You can taste the sauce. I just would have wanted a little more meat so it wasn't so much crepe and crispiness. I give them a solid 4.5 though. I couldn't finish both halves of my Jiang bing because it's filling. I suggest bringing someone who will want to share food. I may be back to try their handmade dumplings next!

The service is warm and attentive, good beers on tap and an outdoor patio really make this place inviting and enjoyable. Give it a visit!

But here it is, finally served. I came in solo on 11/25/23, right as they opened at 4pm. The place was practically empty, just me for a good while. About an hour later, a couple came in to dine, and someone else stopped by for a to-go order. So no, this wasn't peak hour chaos. I was genuinely excited. A spot bold enough to name itself Fish Sauce? That's not trying to water itself down to appeal to the "fusion" crowd? Yes, please. The unapologetic Viet-ness of it won me over from afar. But perhaps, in some ironic twist of cultural karma, that came back to bite me. I scanned the menu and felt seen: bánh tét chiên, thịt kho, bắp nướng, bánh chuối nếp nướng. Childhood on a plate. Nostalgia. Home. I ordered all of them, full-hearted and belly-ready. You order at the counter, seat yourself, and wait. Here's where it turned. As each dish came out, I heard the kitchen staff talking, openly, in Vietnamese, about me. They were surprised that I was "chubby but not as fat as they expected" given the amount of food I ordered. Yep. That happened. In Vietnamese. Loud enough. I paused mid-bite. Do I respond? Joke back? Let them know I understood every word? I considered it. But honestly? It wasn't worth the breath or the calories. I had already decided I wouldn't be back. The food was solid, comforting and nostalgic, but not mind-blowing. A 3/5. Service? I'll let you draw your own conclusions, but if you value being treated with basic decency, maybe look elsewhere. In the end, Fish Sauce was a philosophical experience more than a culinary one: Can a place celebrate cultural authenticity while treating someone from that very culture with casual disrespect? Apparently, and absolutely, YES!!!!! And now this review can finally escape my draft folder.

The tofu and noodles and veggies inside could have been a bit better cooked, but the flavor was good. I would come back here and try other bao but was a bit limited since I'm a vegetarian, but was happy to see that they did have some options. Service was quick and efficient. I ordered and immediately got my bao. There are a few tables inside, but I got mine to go and it came in this pretty packaging. The bao was pipping hot. I almost burnt my hand.

It's a very clean, comforting, and cozy space. You can tell the staff are so kind. I loved all the classic dishes - xian jian baos (aka pan-fried baos) were crispy and the best I've ever had (even compared to the bay area), beef noodle soup, and sesame noodles. It's exactly what you would hope for with these dishes and exceeded my expectations from a small mom and pop restaurant like this. I also loved the won ton noodle soup - the wontons had great flavor and tasted like it was home-made (in the best way) with enough shrimp to make me happy. Their menu included a number of different kinds of teas, which I would have loved to try. It would be great for someone who enjoys tea. We sat through the prime dinner time on a weeknight and the tables were eventually filled but did not notice any wait for anyone who came by. Several people came for pick-up, but I would recommend dining in if you can!

The atmosphere is buzzing even in the small hours, making it the perfect sanctuary for a late-night craving. It's the kind of place where the smell of charcoal and cumin hits you the moment you walk through the door, setting the stage for a solid, no-frills feast. The skewers are the undeniable stars of the show, especially the chicken skin, which was rendered down to a perfect, fatty crisp. Both the lamb and beef skewers were hit with a heavy-handed dusting of traditional spices, giving them that essential kick without overpowering the tender meat. Each bite had that authentic charred flavor that only comes from a high-heat grill, and they paired perfectly with the rest of the other food we ordered throughout the night. The absolute standout, however, was the eggplant in aluminum foil. It arrived bubbling in a pool of garlic-infused oil and soy, so incredibly soft that it practically melted off the skin. It provided a rich, savory contrast to the smokiness of the meat and is easily a must-order for anyone visiting. Between the great food and the reliable hours, this has officially become my new go-to for an after-hours meal.

Going into the food, the flavors were definitely all there! All of the skewers we got were amazing! The cucumber salad was also a huge highlight of the meal as the sauce from it tasted wonderful! I would highly recommend pairing whatever you get with their cucumber salad! I did have to drop it down a star as the food didn't feel very filling for the price and the music/vibe of the place felt off for having come by around 5/6pm. But later in the night, it seems like a perfect place to visit for some food and drinks! I would recommend coming by after dark for sure!
