I thought, firstly, that the servers and owners of that food truck were really downed earth and felt like family because they know the heart and soul of what food taste like to make it Homie and comfortable and what makes it really comfort food. It was very delicious and I would definitely come back to this food cart as when I walked by it on Last Thursday I couldn't resist ordering something because real barbecue just feels like summer and it's good a whole year around. I really recommend getting any of the ribs, chicken, beef, pork because they're all great and those beans are delicious. The ambience is outside so it's gonna feel chatty but with good company. read more

Pretty good bbq! Had ribs (both beef and pork) and chicken. Baked beans were good. The sauce was damn good, and they give you a lot. You'll definitely need your wet nap. Pretty quick turnaround for a food cart. read more

We drive down from Seattle just for these beef ribs! We used to come all the way from Ohio for them! Family owned. Delicious.

Very good BBQ and very cheap (11.50 for ribs and a couple sides). Small menu, they do ribs and chicken and a few sides which makes it easy to choose. The collard greens here are the best I've ever had - so savory and not bitter at all. They're cooked with some meat bits so vegetarians can't even enjoy them, hah! Love this little food truck pod, they've got Conscious Sedation beer garden in there so you can enjoy a nice beer with your meal as well. Beware though, hours seem pretty irregular. read more

Came here as group of us were doing a art walk on Alberta street, was craving for some meaty food, stopped by this spot where there were few other food trucks, mind you Portland is known for food trucks as I discovered, we ordered bbq ribs that came with the potato salad And greens and , chicken wings. Mind you, I have never seen my fiancé finishing potato salad when we've ordered in the past from other place, which he did so there must be something good about this place , he liked the collard greens, meat was cooked well, I just thought it was little too much bbq sauce, meat kinda somewhat seemed like they were swimming in the sauce as I don't really like having that much sauce on the meat but however I liked the meat itself. We were definitely full and satisfied after. I would go back again. read more

Sweet Street BBQ - Miss Sassy and her birthday bouquet! Love, Respect & solidarity:) Heather & Steven - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I was hungry. For $3 I am now definitely full. Their wednesday special wing "sandwich" is a sweet and tangy delight, with three giant wings slathered in sauce atop a heroically inadequate slice of spongy white bread. The bread was perfect to change up the texture and the flavor, the wings fell off the bone and were just as tasty on or off the wing, and when some of that tangy sauce went down the wrong pipe they quietly handed me a cold bottle of water on the house, really appreciated and sweet. Def coming back on a Friday for the rib sandwich special, and I'll come with my own water this time so they don't have to save me from myself :) read more

I picked up an order for Grubhub and when I was picking it up the owner decided to give me a plate for free to try it. It was amazing and I've been coming back since! read more

Stopped by this place during our stroll of this District. One of the owners crossed paths with us on the sidewalk and let us know that her wings were hot off of the smoker. That sold us on trying this place; we were burned by another food truck the night before. We ordered 2 chicken wing sandwiches for $4 total since it was a special on Wednesday which consisted of 3 WHOLE WINGS. The taste of the wings were amazing! The owner even checked in with us to ask about her food. So nice! My only wish was that they were smoked a bit longer to make them more "off the bone" but it could've been just that batch. read more

Sweet Street BBQ - $2 wing sandwich special on Wednesdays - Barbeque Near Me - Portland, Oregon

See all

Amazing wings--3 full wings for $2 on Wednesdays. Since it was my first visit, they gave me a free side of collard greens and corn bread. All of it was great, but the barbecue was the main attraction--smoky, sweet with a pleasant kick of heat. This is the sauce I've been searching for. The wings were wonderful quality and perfectly cooked and bathed in sauce. My only regret is that I just discovered this gem, and they're moving to Alberta and 15th in two weeks, enough off my path to be problematic. Still, I have two weeks to sample ribs, chicken, and more collard greens. read more

Sweet Street sadly should not have the letters BBQ anywhere near their name or description. This stuff is Kingsford Charcoal Briquet grilled food at best, and not even well done at that. I took home pork ribs, pulled pork, chicken wings and hot links, sides of baked beans, collards and potato salad. The baked beans were good, really good actually, nothing else garnered a score of edible on my score card. No smoke in the meat, tough rubbery, flavorless, collard greens bitter and flavorless/unseasoned and I am suspicious that the potato salad came from a commercial tub. This might be considered southern food, or a try at soul food.... but BBQ it most definitely is not. I threw the food away. Prices were reasonable, although I am from San Francisco so my judgement on reasonable prices is skewed, then again so should my expectations on what BBQ should be as well. read more

the food cart's menu is a bit hard to decipher. basically they specialize in ribs. the rib dinner comes with 3 ribs and runs $9.5 they have pulled pork sandwich and chicken as well. the ribs taste fine, i liked the bbq sauce. the sides that i tried weren't that great. the corn on the cob was pretty bad and the potato salad wasn't good either. read more

I don't care who you are, where you come from, or who your mama is, THIS IS THE BEST F*ING BBQ CHICKEN YOU'LL EVER EAT. Ever. And if you disagree with me, I'll personally go there and buy your next order, and then I'll eat it for you. This place is no joke. I ordered the chicken wings and a side of collard greens, total came out to an extremely affordable $6. I sit down to eat it, and low and behold, not only are there chicken wings and greens, but there is a generous portion of cornbread, several wetnaps, toothpicks, and napkins. The chicken literally FALLS OFF the bone-- I'd go to pick up a wing, and by the time it got to my mouth, half the meat would have fallen off back onto the slice of bread used to soak up all the sauce because it's JUST THAT TENDER JUICY. Sauce, A+. Cornbread, A. Chicken, A+, Collard Greens, A+. I am definitely coming back to this place. A lot. I was sitting there licking sauce off my fingers like i was a 6yr old. Oh, and did I mention they have a catering menu? That includes cake and rack of ribs and corn on the cob? ...Yep. Woman working there today was very friendly and had quick service. If you're one of those people who has to count calories or get picky about portions, then go home and have a rice cake and ice water for lunch. Everyone else, COME TO SWEET STREET. read more

So all I can say is "man can one of those brothers from Mississippi or an Alabama slammer come open a BBQ spot", because honestly I am just convinced no one in the great northwest has the pit skills, besides Keith Davies and he is from Alabama and he works for the railroad! Definition of pit skills" someone that can BBQ with coal and wood, not the Treger~! Anyway, now when I walk up and tell you I am going to review your food and tell you my grandmother is from Georgia ( so my southern food game is on point) Please just be honest with me and say "Lady this spot might not be for you. I would rather you be upfront and honest than take my money. I ordered the rib dry plate, Ribs where not done enough( requested sauce on the side) and you know they were smothered in it when I opened the box..1st disappointment, 2nd would be potato salad taste like Resers from the tub. I wanted my taste buds to be "WOWED" and that was not the case what so ever. The greens were not cooked with a turnip in them I can tell by the flavor and the baked beans, well lets just say they don't know what the bottle of black strap molasses looks like by the taste of them. Real good baked beans have a very dark look to them from simmering in the oven for hours in all the brown sugar juices and MOLASSES! The customer service was great and that is why I gave 2 stars but they have got bring up their overall food game or they will not survive on Alberta st! Smh.... so not the business people! read more

Yes, as good as it gets- for the price, speed, and taste. This 5 star review comes after 4 visits- all of them different experiences, all of them positive. The greens and the beans- worth a visit for these two items alone. If you're a fan of the pork rib, get in line. They serve a good plate of vittles. read more

Unassuming lil' pipsqueak cart, tucked in the lot adjoining N. Lombard and N. MLK jr. Blvd.... Love their ribs and home-made sauce! Po' boys are just too "rich" ...! This cart seems to have decidedly scaled back hours o' operation in the winter. There used to be several other carts in this lot, now only "Philly's Best" (but Portland's 9th or 10th best, by my reckoning ;p) remains along w/Sweet Street. Gotta say, I'm a little bit emotionally invested in the long-term success of this cart, I just love the name just like the food. The folks are super nice as well, and the scenic route getting hither and yon is more than justified when you're able to pick up these folks' succulent meats (keep the plentiful, tangy sauce on the side, in cups, for me!) and the corn bread. MMMM! Sweet street indeed! read more

Great food. Excellent service. Clean place. Really nice people. That's good bbq when you're smiling with bbq sauce just everywhere.

The greens didn't have much flavor. The baked beans were nothing more than doctered up pork & beans. The ribs weren't bad though. Was always out of sweet potato pie; so never had the chance to taste that. Will not eat there again. read more

This "BBQ" inspired me to create a Yelp account to warn people to stay as far away as possible. I knew the prices were too good to be true. Ribs were chewy, pulled pork was dry, baked beans tasted as if they were right out of a can with ground beef, corn on the cob was over cooked beyond comprehension and everything tasted like a bargain brand of Kraft BBQ sauce. Not a hint of wood to smelled or tasted.. This is a insult to Barbecue everywhere. Please do not allow yourself to go through the disappointment I have just experienced. P.S. No disrespect to the owners, but please choose a different career path. read more

This was terrible. I ordered pork ribs and when I got home I found beef ribs. They obviously never saw the inside of a smoker. Horribly tough, chewy and they tasted "sour". I'm honestly worried about developing food poisoning in a few hours. They have a couple of rusted out smokers out back that haven't been used in quite some time. Don't go. Reesers potato salad, yuk!. Waste of hard earned money. read more

The greens were very tasty. Canned Soda for 1$ however their version of a rib sandwich is literally two ribs and one piece of bread. Overall good for a street stand. read more

Just got back to Cali after a great trip in Portland. I gotta say, the BBQ here is soo good. FIRST TIMERS are welcomed with extra pieces of meat. Very welcoming and the plate portions are big. Can't wait to get back to Portland to have another round or two read more

Best sweet barbecue around! The meat falls right off the bones and melts in your mouth. The sauce is delicious and the service is fantastic. Highly recommended! read more

I've been to my fair share of rib fests, and these pork ribs are AMAZING. Life changing. You get the perfect blend of smokiness from the smoker to BBQ from the sauce without either being too overwhelming. Half rack is a generous portion to share with 2-3 people with lots of meat on each rib. A must have stop in Alberta. read more

Best baked beans ever! BBQ sauce was delicious. Sweet with a little heat!

The food here is really good, and the people who own it are awesome, I feel like I've been invited to a backyard barbecue, the chicken wings are a steal at 3$ and surprisingly filling, much better than anything you'll find across the street at taco fail read more

The ribs were soggy, the greens were bad and the beans were some strange, inedible, chili-like concoction.

Best ribs i'v had in portland. I have been coming just about every friday since December. Now that I work on the 205 side of town I willingly add another hour to my commute just to get down on some ribs after work. b.b.q chicken wings are also amazing. read more
