Ben’s 4-star review: The charming Haitian guy who runs this place is awesome. The food is awesome. Try the "caribbean chicken" --- three chicken legs, amazingly delicious beans and rice, super spicy habañero cole slaw, and fresh tomato and lettuce all for $6. The one with fried plantains was really good also. He's beta testing pork -- tell him you'd like it. Also he said he might try fish, which would be great. Also it's near my work so good local lunch takeout. Next time I go I'll recommend he renames it "hisname's Haitian Food" and Portland will beat a path to his cart. Have you tried Haitian food? -
Ben’s 5-star review: Awesome, super-cheap Banh Mi, vietnamese sandwiches. Two Buck. Also this other great French-Asian fusion, Pate Chaud, which is like a croissant stuffed with that stuff they call pate. $.75, up from $.65 like when I first started going. And! Cookies, breads, cakes, banana in sticky rice, and a new great rice lunch, with a quarter chicken or generous pork chop. Four buck. Coconut juice and other interesting beverages available, and espresso etc. No tables, take out. Nice folks, and sometimes their sassy kid is behind the counter. -
Ben’s 4-star review: Ho Ho is fantastic, I have never been disappointed and it is always fast and cheap. The pepper-salted squid is the best in town, way better than Wong's King even. I love the Ho Ho! 1 star for cheap 1 star for fast 1 star for p.s.q. 1 star for convenience -
Ben’s 5-star review: Fresh, handmade tortillas. Fabulous, almost good enough to eat just on their own. Put fantastic grilled birria (birria de chivo, goat meat) and onions and cilantro on them, and you have heaven for $1.50. Burritos, etc, also good. But if you like fresh corn tortillas, head for Lindo Michoacan. If Los Gorditos wasn't two blocks from my house and so nice, this would be my favorite in Portland. -
Ben’s 5-star review: Ok, I've been back like 10-15 times since my last review. I really love these guys. Pastor still awesome, but the fish taco! Comes with beans and rice! A meal in one taco! And I got brave and tried the tripas. Delicious, if you don't think about it. Really, really good. And the cabeza. -
Ben’s 3-star review: Super Torta is relatively convenient to my work, and has pretty good carnitas. Veggie it is not --- it's a tacqueria! I've been mystified several times to hear friends say "Oh, such and such taco place it not so good" until I find out they are talking about veggie burritos or some other stuff. IMNSHO, a tacqueria should be judged on its carnitas, asada, and pastor, then its tortillas, then its tortas and burritos. Super Torta is pretty good at all of the above. Veggie burritoes?!? Go to Laughing Planet and eat black beans, hippie! -
Ben’s 3-star review: Quite good thai food near my work. I have never been disappointed, the portions are always generous, and they're pretty speedy. Pretty good, and very convenient for lunch. -
Ben’s 3-star review: Pretty good, a competitor for Tom Yum for my thai/viet lunch dollar. Good veggie stir fries, excellent soup, and good appetizers --- a favorite lunch for me is satay skewers (marinated with coconut milk, and served with those awesome shrimp chips and a little cuke salad), salad rolls, and a Singha. 5 minute bike ride from work, too... hmm, maybe tomorrow for lunch. -
Ben’s 4-star review: How can a deli/market get 4 stars? By being really good at what they do. Jane and Michael Stern say they have one of the ten best hot dogs in the USA, and I believe it. Other sausages also are good. I sprang for their smoked salmon one time, and it was one of the best I've ever had. Also a good beer and wine selection, and you can get a beer and drink it at the regular retail price. I like Gretchen's salads also, though I do add salt and pepper to the potato salad. I eat here probably once a week, and still love it. It helps that it's a short short walk from work. -
Ben’s 4-star review: The great thing about the WWD is that you can buy wine and drink it there with no corkage fee. The price on the bottle is what you pay, whether you take it home or drink it there. Awesome. And wifi, if you care. All still true! One more star for reliable old Portland longevity! -
Ben’s 3-star review: Good little chi-chi market. Excellent Deli sandwiches and some hot foods (soup, etc.). Good wine selection, other beverages. I had a rockin' good roast beef sandwich on bagguette there. Also, a PBR 16oz. is $0.79! Yeah, sandwich and a beer under $8. Excellent. Also, a very pleasant walk from my work. -
Ben’s 4-star review: Mackerel bento still awesome, up $1 since last review but totally worth it. But there's news! The Pok pok folks have bought the place and assume the lease Oct. 1, 2011. So! Last chance for traditional Japanese curry, awesome bentos, or Terry's sushi. -
Ben’s 4-star review: Tani's is really good. Tani-san is a nice guy also. They have a good sake selection, and some really good food. Also, they've done some amazing special requests: One time, we called and said "We have $200, make me a selection of sushi and stuff" and they really came through big time. Bonus: close to my work!
