The people working were really friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and lots of it. The food court was clean & very nice. We will definitely go back . read more

We were so excited to see this place pop up when looking for lunch after our hike! My husband raved about their food when they were in Portland and was excited to have it again. The chicken strips were perfectly crisp and tender and the house dipping sauce was delish! We will definitely stop again next time we're in the area. read more

Wonderful food and people running the cart. Mostly the best chicken (fried) sandwich there is read more

We came here in the summer just for their rotisserie chicken, but it happened to be a hot day so they didn't have any (as Texans, that was wild to us, 90 degrees is nowhere near "hot" in our book lol). That said, Twirling Bird did not disappoint with their sandos. Just look at it, it's huge!! The size alone is impressive, but the taste is even better. The chicken was juicy, crunchy, and super flavorful. We also got the wings, which were a little extra burnt for our liking, but they still tasted great. The sauces are solid too, I'd recommend getting as many as you can. It's a food truck, but there's a really nice seating area tucked further inside with shade, fans, and a hangout vibe. It's shared with other food trucks as well. Must-stop if you're on your way back from the falls. read more

Twirling Birds is on another level -- the best wings I've ever had in my life. We used to go to them all the time back when they were in Portland, and even though they're in Silverton now, we still make the drive because it's absolutely worth it. The consistency is unreal - every single visit the wings come out perfectly crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. They're so good that I don't even need ranch. That's how fire these wings are. And the bread pudding? Unreal. It's not too sweet, not heavy - just light, flavorful, and always a delight to eat. The perfect way to end the meal. If you want a spot that never misses, Twirling Birds is it. Worth the drive every time. read more

I've known them and their food for over 3 years, and 5 stars aren't enough to describe the experience they create for you. I am from Peru, and their chicken and sauces are so similar to ours! The wings.. tenders.. fries.. OMG all so good! Also, the way they talk to you, their warmth, their passion.. Honestly, no other food cart makes me feel like I'm home. I live by Gresham, and if it takes me an hour or more to get there, I'll still drive without hesitation :). Thank you guys. Thank you for the love you put into your food and the energy you share with every single customer. read more

Had high hopes this would be amazing. The chicken didn't have much flavor and was pretty dry but we didn't pick the option where they cut it, grill it some and add teriyaki sauce. The biscuits were also very dry but since we took it home just sprinkled some water and microwaved with wax paper and then they were tasty. The special brown sugar yam fries were good. Different and have the skin on and are soft, eat with a fork not pick up. Friendly service. Just hope it was an off night and since it wasn't busy maybe stuff cooked too long. But was hoping for more flavor in the chicken without having to add a bunch of sauce. A bit of a drive for us so not sure if we will try again to see. read more

We love Twirling Bird! My husband and I order food multiple times a week. We have loved every single thing we've ever had here. I live for their Chicken and Dumplings Special and their Chicken Yakisoba Special. I've never liked ribs until I tried theirs. They have the best fries in town and my husband loves their burger. For an extra special treat, get the banana pudding! Get 5! You will not be sorry! The owners, Kalvin and Laura are so nice. We just love them! read more

Delicious rotisserie chicken with some great sauces to try out. The side dishes sounded wonderful, but I stuck with the Jasmin rice, and it was cooked perfectly. Friendly people serving it up and an unbeatable summer setting in that common area next to the creek. Will be back. read more

I'm not a big deli food eater and my husband told me he wanted me to take me out to dinner. He added that it was a place with chicken strips and I will say that lost my interest. He told me that it's wonderful food and the sauces to dip in are very unique. I like hanging out with him so of course I went. It is hands-down the best chicken strips I've ever had! I don't even know that I would call them chicken strips because they're actually chicken. The pieces are gigantic and they're nothing like deli food. We go back there regularly and I even took my grandchildren and they loved it. I highly recommend this place if you are a chicken strip person because these are like chicken strips extraordinaire! read more

My husband and I LOVE Twirling Bird. Our go to is their fried chicken sandwich, but their regular cheeseburger is pretty dang good too- easily the best "basic" burger you can find in Silverton. Prices are very reasonable, and they are totally able to customize your order (we love extra pickles) or let you try any or all of their house made sauces! read more

Some of the best food we have had. Their chicken is perfection, moist and flavorful. They have the most creative sides. The sautéed veg are to die for. Large portions and they always go the extra mile. We are so grateful to have them in our town. read more

Holy crap was the sandwich good! Best chicken sandwich I've ever had for 10 bucks. I'm glad I was only visiting because I'd probably eat that thing every day for that price. My sandwich was enormous. 10/10. read more

The food at the Twirling Bird is delicious. Everything we have tried there has been top notch and made fresh. The owners are very nice and treat their customers well. Definitely check this place out if you are visiting Silverton, you won't be disappointed! read more

Great food, friendly stay and fast service. The smoked chicken wings were great and the sauce on their chicken sandwich was great.

I was visiting Portland, working on a project near Halsey out past Gateway and found myself looking for a healthy place to eat near at the end of the day. The #1 spot that came back on Yelp search was Twirling Bird. It looked great and was only a couple blocks away! I pulled up and walked up to the Twirling Bird Food Truck to order. A super friendly gal helped me decide what to get and about 12 minutes later I had a Fried Chicken Sando and Rotisserie 1/2 chicken in the front seat of my truck. When I opened the Sandwich container, I was amazed as to the size of the fried chicken on the sandwich. Not only was it impressive to look at, it was the most flavorful chicken sandwich I've ever had. Everything about it was fantastic. When I got back to the house, I shared the rotisserie half chicken with my daughter and her husband and my grandkids and it was a big hit! Right then I decided that that would be my regular go to for the next few days when I was out in that part of town. Over the next few days I proceeded to have the chicken sandwich a couple more times and I got a half rack of ribs that were excellent. The operators of the food truck sang to the radio they had playing while they cooked and the atmosphere was great. You should definitely try out this Twirling Bird Rotisserie if you're out in Northeast Portland. I can't wait to get back and try something else on the menu. Great recommendation Yelp! read more

I am always on the hunt for a yummy rotisserie chicken and did i find it here!!! seasoning, sides, juicy chicken 10/10! the sweetest folks too - support small businesses. I WILL BE BACK!! read more

Hands down the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Great service, nice owners. Overall a great experience with awesome food.

Everything we ate was amazing! I ordered the hind quarter chicken without a dipping sauce. I was taking a hunch that the chicken would be seasoned and didn't need sauce and I was correct! Perfectly seasoned Chicken! My husband ordered a handmade quarter pound bacon cheeseburger. We both got fries and I ordered banana pudding. We will come back! Thank you for the great food! read more

I am so sad that I didn't take ALL the photos that I normally do. (Sorry, I just ate the food and didn't think about it, I couldn't resist) First off, I will remind you, I am a pretty picky eater. The last 4 days I have been here twice!! I will go again this week and it's only a Tuesday. I'll update photos. This little cart is owned by a husband and wife (I believe, I'll confirm later) they're super friendly, and the food... omg! I haven't been this impressed from a food cart in... ever!! The Rotisserie chicken (thighs take the crown) so soft and moist, I don't get how he does it?! The Fried Chicken Sando...?! I have no words! It's even good when you microwave it! Chicken wings- bomb! Get it plain and sauce on the side, or honey mustard. So bomb - something about their honey mustard. Now... their sides... I can't stop raving about them. Teriyaki green beans(or string beans) I have to get 2 orders each time! Their "smashed fried potatoes" -- genius!!!! Sauces: Fire aioli & Honey mustard!! Did I mentioned my kids cheeseburger was HUGE? You'll thank me later! read more

I've never really liked rotisserie chicken much but I love me some fried chicken so I decided to try their Fried Chicken Sandwich ($13). It was surprisingly large, with probly only half of it contained by the brioche bun. The breading was great - light & w/ the perfect amount of crunch. I also really liked that their shredded lettuce was romaine instead of iceberg. My only beef with this sando is that they use breast, I prefer Thigh cuz I think it's juicier but still an excellent sandwich. Wish it came w/ fries but for $13 they sure don't skimp on the chicken. read more

I love this place so much. My family ordered the full rotisserie chicken quartered and grilled with teriyaki, a few orders of the quartered buffalo dark meat, and fries. I was also given a container with all their sauces. The chicken blew us away. My son kept saying it was the best chicken he ever had. The sauces were amazing. I showed up late in the day on a Saturday, so some items were already sold out that I can't wait to go back and try. The owners were both so sweet and patient with me, since I had never been there. Who knew that a bird that doesn't fly could get so close to heaven? read more

Best pulled pork we have ever had. My husband who loves to smoke meat even agrees. (He is trying his hardest to figure out how they got the meat so moist, and full of flavors and spices) We have also had the chicken strips, and wow, just wow. We shared the two piece and were stuffed. Large portions but extremely high quality. Don't be afraid to try it, some people don't like food trucks but this one is exceptional and the price is very reasonable. read more

Twirling Bird has their menu dialed in! The rotisserie chicken is tender, juicy, and flavorful. Their house made sauces are a perfect complement. Also on the menu are their delicious, light and crispy chicken tenders. Full of flavor, tender. Hubs had the bacon cheeseburger that he rated as one of the best he's ever had. Perfectly grilled, thick bacon, crisp lettuce and onion. if you are luck, they sometimes have ribs on the menu. Meaty, tender meat pops! read more

Do yourself a favor and get the bacon cheeseburger!!! Their food is hot, fresh and full of flavor! It's awesome that they use locally sourced ingredients. Repeat customers! read more

Not bad. It is definitely just a BBQ chicken joint where you can pick if you want bbq sauce or not. I came here thinking it was like Mexican or Peruvian rotisserie chicken but it's got the BBQ feel vs rotisserie. Idk how to explain ! The food is good, the service was nice too. I wanted to try it just to see how it was but it's my fault for expecting a different cook style. read more

Honestly, one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in Portland. Owners are genuinely so nice and deserve everything, please support them! read more

Two things...first the best chicken sandwich you will have ever! It is huge, and amazing. Second....no matter how full you are you have to try the banana pudding. It is to die for. What a great addition to our community. I hear they have a great burger too. I just can't get past not ordering the chicken sandwich! read more

Just a note! This place, while still serving good food with kindness, no longer has the fav items I mentioned in my first review. Roasted chicken, yep! Tho it is now a dinner menu item. Delish sauces! Yep. But the beautiful green beans and smashed potatoes (which seriously made the meal! Are replaced by fries. The gorgeous chicken sandwich was not on the menu either (tho I might not have seen it)... they now are serving up mostly chicken wings and burgers... which I am sure are tasty, just not my thing! I think I remember some awesome potato salad in the past, too. After stopping by four times... and the chicken being sold out or not ready yet... and my fav items no longer there... I'm sorry to say, it's changed! read more

The fried chicken is soooooooo good! i got the fried chicken melt and its been the best sandwich here in Portland. Its a good size too! Not to mention the service was great! She was so friendly and I cant wait to go back again! Great area to bring friends and there are heaters too! read more

Twirling Bird - Fried Chicken Melt - Food Trucks Near Me - Silverton, Oregon

Fantastic chicken wings- we ordered BBQ flavor. Crunchy edges and a sweet tangy sauce. Also the 1/2 # burger which was full of chargrilled flavor. Side of fries was delicious too. Plenty of sauce and super nice folks running it. They offered my dog a chicken juice saturated biscuit, a sweet gesture. We were grateful they were open as one of the 3 trucks operating on Labor Day for dinner. Would definitely keep this place on my go to list in Portland, especially to try the fried chicken sandwich next time. read more

Learned about this cart recently from PDX Wing Week, and glad I did! This VERY hidden gem is in an area I drive thru frequently, but I never knew it even existed. Everything we had came with great char on it, even the green beans, which I really liked. The chicken wings were well sauced and had a nice char on them, too. Chicken sandwich was big and tasty. The sweet potato fries were only okay. Great flavor, but pretty limp. Great place, I'll be back! read more

Always tasty food with a dash of very nice Peeps! You guys are the best - see ya tomorrow! read more

I can't say enough about this place, it's spectacular! GO, support this local business. They are friendly and make thoughtful food that is just so so good. We as a group ordered two of the chicken sandwiches and ribs (they just happened to have a special order of them that day) and let me tell you, out of this world! The chicken was crispy in a way I didn't even know chicken could be, it was seasoned and crunchy and a 3D experience. The ribs were melt in your mouth and ALL of the different sauces delicious. The crew is so sweet and lovely, happy to explain anything on the menu and the quiet but mysterious bear in the back makes the magic happen. They are a real duo! Thank you for doing what you do and I look forward to having everything on the menu and then ordering the same amazing thing forever lol. * A note for fans or ones wanting to try this place, they will be temporarily closed for a few weeks going into June but will be open there after. read more

The Rotisserie Plum Habanero wings were incredible, I think they are the most unique of wing week! We were so happy to try this place since it was off the beaten path for us. Get a side of the biscuits with your chicken, they were my favorite part. read more

I had been trying to get over here for a while to get their chicken sandwich and it does not disappoint. Wonderful place, the chicken is breaded (not too thick) nice and crispy but not overly so. There's a nice herb mayonnaise sauce that's with it that has a nice tang to it. The french fries are almost beer breaded style, so they have a really nice light breading on it that tastes really good. I'm looking forward to trying out the rotisserie chicken sometime. read more
