Grabbed a chicken Caesar wrap with an add of avocado right as they were opening on Sunday. Size was good with fresh ingredients, although for me the wrap itself was a bit bland. Also, for the additional 3$ for the avocado there was minimal found inside. I liked the menu though and would definitely be up for trying something else sometime. read more

On a cold winter day, nothing is more soothing than a tasty bowl of soup! Very sunny cart owner greeted me and made me a very delicious meal. Flavorful African peanut soup that really hit the spot with spoonfuls of greens and veggies that made me feel like I made the right decision with my lunch today...plus I got a chicken pesto crêpe. Something so nourishing about pesto! Definitely made sure that was my last savory bite! (I was reading some of the other reviews while I was waiting for my food and found it curious that someone would say it was "the best rustic grilled cheese they've ever had" but only gave it four stars??? Was it the best, or not? Five star reviews really help small business owners make a living! So that prompted me to leave a review in gratitude for my satisfying meal). read more

I was the last order on a very rainy evening. The owner was super kind and engaging. Super great vibes! I landed on a California crepe and a bananas foster crepe- both seemed very whole food centered and were substantial. Both were delicious and eaten up before I even got them home. For crepes in this town, Suzette and Le Happy are still great- but, I would go to Spoons before going back to the others. $20 total, and it was realistically a meal and a half. Expansive gluten free and vegan options, too. Go there! read more

Considering that I walk past all the other delicious Portland food carts without so much as blinking, Spoons receives an obligatory star-bump. And since I've already raved about their healthy lunchtime offerings, I will use this update to expatiate about the awesome folks 'behind the cart.' (I will then try to sell the rights to VH1, or perhaps the food network...) Derek the soup guy has a smile that could stop crime and his helper puts Mary Poppins to shame. They are far more similar to the Soup Fairy than the Soup Nazi, sans the creepy sneaking into your room at night and leaving soup under your pillow bit. They're so dang friendly that even after I have my meal in hand, I find myself blabbing away about the health benefits of lentils or how they managed to pack such a smoky flavor into a vegan soup. Fortunately for them, I am not their only loyal customer, and I am gently reminded to step aside so that others can experience the pure euphoria of Spoons -- or just get a cup of soup. Whatever. read more

These salads are bomb. Now you might ask, "what makes a salad so great?" Let me tell you. These toppings are made with love and are unlike many other salads. The croutons are large and flavorful, the tomatoes and cucumbers are fresh and bite size, and the red onions? They're.. pickled? Maybe? Just enough to be a little different in the salad, so it's vinegary ness is not overwhelming. The size of the salad is pretty substantial, and the price is great IMO. Highly recommend.

I've never seen such a bad wrapping job on wraps, burrito, Gyro, etc...ever! I ordered a veggie wrap with avocado for $8.50 plus $.50 for credit card pay. But it didn't have avocado. The wrap was so hard to eat due to the bad wrapping job and I felt like I was mostly eating the tortilla. You can only eat so much tortilla and lettuces so I gave up half way. $9 for this is a joke. I gave two stars instead of one star because the ingredients were at least fresh. read more

I was really excited to try the Southwest wrap. Lettuce, tomatoes, olives, beans, cheese, chips, red onions, and a chipotle lime ranch dressing. I ordered mine without olives and added chicken, bringing the $7 wrap up to $9. The flavor were good and ingredients were fresh. However, I was really disappointed that the wrap was 90-95% romaine lettuce. I was halfway through the wrap before I realized they hadn't actually forgotten the chicken. There were maybe 3 thin pieces in the whole wrap, for which I was upcharged $2. I think I counted 5 beans total. The staff were very friendly and the wrap tasted good, but the price doesn't justify the contents, especially compared to other food trucks in the pod. read more

Based on the reviews I was looking forward to a tasty salad here. I ordered th $7 southwest salad and added avocado and chicken. I was surprised that the add on items increased the price to $12. I reasoned that maybe they load it with both, so I paid and waited. I was so disappointed when I opened my salad. A couple of slices of slightly undercooked chicken and black avocado sat on top. I removed both and reluctantly dug in. Salad was bland, bland, bland. Very few kidney beans and cheese. The dressing didnt taste like ranch or chipotle. The only thing that made this salad interesting was the tortilla chips. I will not be returning. read more

There's nothing like a hot cup of soup on a cold day. Especially when you get it from a soup cart. The folks at Spoons like to think of themselves as "soup nazis", but they are far from nazi. They're simply too nice for that. These two kick out a new set of three soups every week-day for lunch. Along side these soups, they offer wraps and tasty salads. The soup and salad combo (with rustic Italian bread) is $6, and worth every penny. I can't even begin to catalog the variety of soups offered at Spoons, but they offer soups from all continents and all ethnicities. Paired with a nice hefty serving of Caesar salad, a cup of their hearty soup can't be beat. They use healthy, high quality ingredients, and the flavor shines through. This is some gourmet soup, but from a decidedly non-gourmet cart. Seek these two out amongst the row of carts near the US Bank tower on 5th off of Stark. Don't delay... or there will be no soup for you! read more

I have been on a soup kick since moving to Portland, I pretty much try and order it with every meal and so far Portland hasn't let me down! Today as I was walking in downtown and passed food cart row I was hoping for a soup vendor and low and behold.....Spoons!!!!!!!!!!! I am having a tough time deciding between 3-4 stars. My soup was quite good but not fantastic. I have every intention of going back though. The bread that they give you was really great and I love how they made little cuts in the piece of bread to make it easier to pull pieces of it off. I got the red pepper and corn soup and I really liked it except for the heavy smoke flavor to it. I am just not a fan of smoky things but I am sure that some folks dig it. I was hoping that they had a better selection of soups but I probably caught them on an off day. The folks that work there are super nice, I love all of the soup Nazi papers that they have on the outside of the cart, especially since they couldn't be any nicer! They had some delicious sounding salads and wraps but I wasn't hungry enough to try them but certainly plan to try all of their stuff soon! read more

At the risk of tarnishing my track record of writing a 5-page long diatribe for each and every review I create - I'll step off my soap box and into a bowl or a cup of soup from Spoons. If you've ever wondered what it's like to eat a hug - this is it! In 40-55 degree weather and an abundance of rain here in Portland, my bowl of cream of spinach soup with its goat cheese crouton felt like I was holding a cup of heaven. I then realized I was making obscene noises and drooling profusely so I took my leave before I drove any of their business away or was asked to leave. The guy serving it was delightful and engaging and helped me pick the perfect soup for the type of day I was experiencing. Yes, yes I tend to be that annoying customer who asks "so what should I order?" or "what's your favorite?" to the servers. Some (rightly) look at me like I've lost my mind and some actually help me out and tell me. I've never been disappointed by using this ordering tactic and today was no exception. I eat at the food carts almost each and every day and have enjoyed just about everything I've had from them. This one just needed to be written about on a day like today (read "craptacular cold wet rainy train wreck") where you just want something warm and soothing. Mission accomplished! read more

If it's raining and it's Portland, chances are I am taking my giant comic strip umbrella and my flammable work slacks and trekking across town for a piping hot cup of soup. Why do I walk 11 blocks out of my way in the rain just for soup you ask? Aside from being delicious and hitting the spot every time, I kind of have a thing for their bread. Crusty, delicious rustic goodness, buttered and dipped in to soups so tasty they make you forget about how crummy the weather is. The french onion is my fave, the tortilla not tortilla-ey enough but overall this is a good spot to get some soup with fresh ingredients and support your local carts. read more

History

Established in 2004.

The cart has been around since 2004. I bought it in 2018. It’s now located in the sellwood neighborhood. I really love this spot. It started as a soup and salad spot. I’ve expanded quite a lot.. I have added crepes , barbecue, pork, sliders, jackfruit, sliders, 12 different hot sandwiches, and 10 different types of bowls. And my newest addition is 6 kinds of Avocado toast. My menu is eclectic. But the soup and salads are still the core of what I do. Most of what I make is completely from scratch and I use organic whenever possible.

Meet the Business Owner: Ruth P.

I have been in the food and beverage industry for more than 30 years. I have a passion for cooking. I love to feed people. I truly enjoy getting to know what people like and trying to create menu items that will satisfy. Going from managing restaurants to owning my own has truly been a blessing for me.

IDK what it is, but literally every bite of the sandwich was gristly. not a little bit, not a tiny amount... VERY sandy feeling. like if you sat a sandwich out at the beach on a windy day and took a bite every now and then. i did not like this spot and i wanted to

Street Wok has become my favorite Chinese restaurant in the Portland Area. There is one huge…read morereason, they use significantly less oil in their dishes but still use quality ingredients where the flavor stands out without the oil. Typically at most Chinese restaurants, especially fried dishes, you'll see a pool of oil at the bottom of the dish. This is not the case here, and their sauces also keep their oil usage to the minimum. The food doesn't feel as heavy, and they nail most of their Szechuan flavors well. Their service is always fast and friendly. There is a gentleman in glasses that is always happy to serve and answer your questions. He is always happy to pack your food for you to go if you have leftovers as well, which is a lovely gesture. They have very cute decorations inside, from lucky cats with fortune cookies in their mouths, or a painted wall with a Panda cooking delicious food. I'd steer clear from their soup dishes, most of them lack flavor. I highly recommend their Chopped Pepper Fish and their Jade Tofu items though. Very flavorful and not very heavy! Plenty of parking is available which is lovely for eating in Portland, do not let this spot be missed if you've never tried it!

I had some really tasty Chinese food at Street Wok. We…read moreordered the mala fish soup and the numbing mala spice was on point. We ordered it with no additional requests, but the owner let us know that we could adjust it to be milder or more intense depending on our preference. We also tried the spicy fried chicken. The seasoning was flavorful,l and the chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The bok choy was nicely cooked with the right amount of garlic. The portion sizes were generous for the price. I'm not very good with extremely spicy food, so I ended up drinking a lot of water. The staff kept coming by to refill my glass without me even asking, which I really appreciated. Everyone was very friendly. The restaurant itself is casual, bright, and spacious.
