    Great. I loved everything I had. Don't know why all the reviews aren't 5 stars. Great service and friendly waitress.

    Delicious seafood Tom Yum noodles and Pad Kee Mao noodles. One of the only Thai restaurants in the middle of no where of Oregon. Service was quick and our food was out in less than 15 minutes. It wasn't too busy on a Saturday afternoon so it was nice and quiet dining experience

    Thai is one of my favorite cuisines, especially when I don't feel like cooking; it's typically the only take out food I get. I was happy to see this location, that was the previous home of Montira's Thai, has now attracted another Thai restaurant. On a Saturday evening, I was one of just 3 people dining but I did notice several others stop in for pick up orders. Ordered my go-to Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) with chicken and decided to eat it there. The food arrived quickly and piping hot which I like! The wide rice noodles were stir fried with onions, green peppers, Thai basil in a garlicky sauce. Next time I'll request red peppers. I chose chicken for my protein and it was perfectly cooked - no dry chicken anywhere. The flavors were multidimensional, a must for Thai food, but there wasn't any heat which is standard for Pad Kee Mao. The waitress brought me the tray of three chili oils and sauces so I was able to tailor to my taste. My only complaint was the portion was on the small side. Typically when I order this dish, or any Thai dish, I have enough for leftovers the next day. This was not the case, I ate every bit. So either I was super hungry or the portions are on the small side, but for $14.95, it was priced right. I'll definitely be back! I am looking forward to trying the Panang curry and some other dishes.

    I'm really sorry to only give 3 stars here, because I'd been hoping for the former Montira's to reopen and bring back good Thai food to the Gorge. Despite being told that the cook has remained the same, the two dishes we had for lunch were a real disappointment. The Pad Thai was a one-note dish - a mostly sweet tangle of rice noodles with some chicken and a shrimp. From color to flavor, it lacked the usual "punch" that a great Pad Thai should deliver. No bean sprouts to add in a bit of crunch. No sprinkle of peanuts. No bright green from a few sliced scallions and a wedge of lime. The yellow of egg to add contrast and flavor? Nope. It was just a pile of sticky sweet rice noodles, a pinkish stain presumably from the tamarind ... and the bits of protein. A complete disappointment and change from the Pad Thai I remembered getting previously. I'll check out the food truck nearby that has Thai food and keep my fingers crossed. Spouse had a special of scallops on lettuce. The scallops were cooked well - firm but not rubbery. Again, not much to write about in terms of flavor, though the presentation was better thanks to the green lettuce. Our chicken satay starter was fine, though the flavorings weren't particularly great in the accompanying peanut sauce and cucumber relish. Service seemed like it was very new - staff trying to be helpful. I thought it was a little slow for a relatively empty restaurant at lunch. We may give it another try but with a real fail on a core dish like Pad Thai, I'm not all that optimistic.

    Salad roll is 99% lettuce. No tofu. It's a shame because the rice paper was perfect, peanut sauce was great but this is just insulting!

    Some of the best Pad Thai I've had in a long time! And the fresh wraps were fabulous, too. Can't wait to go back and try a few more things.

    I'm quite sure this is the best vegetarian ramen I've ever had! Rich with just the right amount of…read moreheat. The eggs had a perfect jam texture and just melted in my mouth. The sake flight was also tasty and fun. My partner found the matcha ipa to be unexpectedly good. The menu could be easier to read though! Inconsistent formatting and usage of pictures. Skip the croquettes though, these were bland deep fried breaded mashed potatoes that seems like they'd been heated from frozen mass produced. TLDR: Ramen AMAZING, croquettes meh.

    Mugen Noodle is such a great find, especially if you, like me are traveling with vegan and…read moregluten-free peeps and don't want anyone settling for the sad "side salad option." The vegan and GF choices here were actually exciting. My friends ordered the vegan Khao Soi and the Kati noodle soups, and both were full, thoughtful dishes, not afterthoughts. It made dinner so much easier and way more enjoyable for our whole group. This isn't a traditional ramen shop, but my husband's black garlic chintan was every bit as satisfying as some of our favorite ramen spots back in the Bay. Rich, comforting, and absolutely worth ordering at $19 for a hearty bowl. (The others were slightly pricier at $24 a pop) That said, the star of the night was my spicy shrimp ramen. Easily. The broth reminded me of a laksa base with a deep, layered flavor heavy with aromatics and umami. The shrimp on top were excellent in their own right, perfectly seared, well-seasoned, and not just a garnish pretending to matter. I also want to give the ramen eggs a shout out. I can't believe how many places get this wrong. These beauties were perfectly marinated and served warm. It's one of my biggest pet peeves to have an ice cold ramen egg dropped into my hot soup and I appreciate the consideration given to addressing this common faux pas. Fast service, a beautiful outdoor patio with a great view, and food that genuinely impressed all of us. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

    I nearly skipped this place thinking "I'm not much of a taco fan." However, my husband loves tacos…read moreand wanted to try it, fortunately for me. We ended up coming back the next day without hesitation for 2 days of tacos in a row and I'd return in a heartbeat if ever back in Hood River. These tacos are addictive! With their mix-and-match fusion menu, your taco of choice can really taste any way you like. The Hawaiian taco with grilled shrimp was my favorite, but I also enjoyed their Thai taco with chicken. I wish I could have tried all of them as everything featured good, fresh ingredients. Don't skip the drinks here either. I usually avoid cocktails but they offered to make their frozen margarita spicy for me and I couldn't resist -- fantastic! The service was over-the-top amazing. This is a casual restaurant where you order at the counter, seat yourself with a number, and wait for your food to be delivered. Service at such establishments is usually pretty perfunctory, but not at Love & Hominy. The servers are all super friendly and seem genuinely enthusiastic to be working in their restaurant. That in itself says a lot. As mentioned, this place is casual but still fun and eclectic. While eating your tacos in-house, check out the wall on the entrance side. It's pretty entertaining to look at.

    Love & Hominy is a rather small restaurant in downtown Hood River, seating only perhaps 25 people…read morein a mixture of tables and countertop seating. It's a brisk business, so while ordering is counter service style, the tables turnover quickly. When we visited at 12:30 on a Sunday afternoon, there was a small line ahead of us to order, but only around 5 minutes or so after we ordered, several tables cleared out and we were able to sit down. The food took about 15 minutes to arrive. Combo, Vietnamese w/ Pork, Mediterranean w/ Chicken, Salsa ($15.50) - The chips, half moon shaped, seem to be fried in house, being really thick, great for dipping with no breakage, and perfectly crunchy. They have somewhat of an oily sheen on the surface, but aren't overly greasy at all. They aren't salted too heavily and instead seem to be slightly sweetened. The salsa included in this meal is refreshingly tangy and creamy. It's completely mild, though, with no hint of heat whatsoever. The chips easily dip in without getting soggy. The tacos all seem to use the same base - a fried corn tortilla heavily seasoned with a doritos locos-esque spice mixture, then filled with tender basmati rice. I believe they store a bunch of tortillas filled with rice sitting in trays, which can then be grabbed off the shelf to customize to order. That would explain why the shells get completely soggy and why the sauces are all applied on top of the rice rather than below. They are also wrapped in aluminum foil, which allows the rice to basically steam inside the taco shell, creating more sogginess. Overall a disappointing base. The Vietnamese combines fish sauce and banh mi pickles, combined with sweet creamy kewpie mayo drizzled over the rice and thinly sliced cucumbers as a second wall complementing the taco shell. The pickles and cucumber are crunchier than the shell. There are jalapenos but there's no heat at all. The pork is shredded and tender with a somewhat smoky quality, but there's not much included at all, perhaps only a tablespoon or two of meat. It's mostly vestigial against the massive amount of pickles on the top. I'd say the flavors are somewhat similar to a vegetarian banh mi. It's definitely missing in the meat department. There are so many veggies piled onto this taco that things fall out left and right while eating. The Mediterranean includes acidic pickled onions, a slaw lightly dressed in vinaigrette, thinly sliced cucumbers, a bunch of salty feta, and shredded mint leaves. There's some tzatziki drizzle, but not enough to make a huge impact. The chicken is shredded very finely and again not given in enough of a quantity to really do much for the taco. I feel like the chicken is precooked white meat, similar to the chicken in those packaged salads. Combo, Thai w/ Chicken, Tex Mex w/ Shrimp, Queso ($15.50) - The queso is served warm. It's thick and cheesy, tasting like pretty standard queso with again no heat whatsoever despite tiny flecks of red. The Thai includes a red bell pepper, cabbage, and edamame (why edamame?) slaw, lightly dressed in a peanutty and sweet vinegar. On top of the rice is a thicker peanut and ginger drizzle, enough to give some freshness and boost the umami. The overall flavor profile does remind me of an Americanized Pad Thai with mostly sweetness and nuttiness and no tamarind fruity tang. The Tex Mex is interesting. They actually char the corn quite well, so it's sweet and smoky in flavor. They add the same queso as the dip for the chips, then cilantro and then soy bacon crumbles, which I found to be disturbing in texture, almost like crunchy egg shells. They do include three or four pieces of sweet shrimp which aren't overcooked. The seasoning on the taco shells doesn't work for me. The flavors clash with the unique ingredients used in the creative tacos. In addition, I'm so confused why they use the same rice base. I guess it's a cost cutting measure? They add a ton to every taco and it spills out all over the place. They could easily amp up the unique qualities of each taco. For example, cilantro rice for the Tex Mex, Jasmine rice for the Thai, vermicelli for the Vietnamese. It's okay to use rice, but it's just such a boring and uninspired base when they are trying to be so creative with the flavors. It feels like filler used to cheapen up the tacos. I have similar feelings towards the meat. It's the same for every taco, no uniqueness in flavor or texture. The only thing different are the toppings and the slight bit of sauce on top. Just think - for the Vietnamese, sweet lemongrass grilled pork, for the Tex-Mex, lime chile grilled shrimp, etc. Then again there's so little meat included in the first place. Overall I left a little disappointed. It seems to be targeted towards people who want fusion food without straying too far away from Americanized roots. It's just not for me.
