I tried this place a couple years back and I did not care for it. A friend asked me about this…read moreplace. I didn't want to give him a bad impression from an interaction from years ago. So I decided to head back and try it again. This is purely the opinion of a local Hawaiian. The actual review: Overall the resturant had a good vibe. Staff was very welcoming. Our server was very helpful in making my decision of the menu. Korean Mix plate was recomended as it was a top seller. I overall enjoyed the meal the portions were huge! So defintely come hungry or prepared for left overs. I will say the Chicken wasn't my favorite. It was bad but didn't wow me. The Kalbi (short ribs) were really tasting and very tender. If you like Garlic the korean style food is for you. Pupu Platter: It's a sampler platter is a great way to try a couple things. The Mochicko Chicken was pretty good. Never had it in strips but overall tasted good. The Kalua Pig Egg Rolls were not my favorite. I foudn the Kalua pig very bland. Hamburger Steak: This was pretty good. The gravy was on point and who doesn't love grilled onions? The only thing I had about the burgers was they were a little tough and a little over cooked. made it a bit like bricks.

Our meals have been tasty, and the portion size options provide for every level of need. We have appreciated the staff's willingness to help introduce us to new menu items, with a special shout-out for the Kalua Pork, Teriaki Chicken, Pear Paradise, and the special Coconut Cake that was available during one of our visits. This is one of our favorite spots on a sunny day for great food and time on their outdoor patio. Thanks again to the Noho's Team!

PARKING: There's a…read moresmall lot with parking. It's a little tight, but there are quite a few spaces considering it's tucked away behind a couple buildings so watch for it! AMBIANCE: The area where the cart is located is open and has a lot of seating including a bar area where you can get drinks like wine, beer, ciders. There are a few other carts here as well with some covered bench/table seating. People were super nice to let us sit and share their tables. SERVICE: The woman taking our orders was super friendly! Made it very easy to order, asked if we have any questions. The food did take like 10 minutes to come out but it was freshly grilled so it's totally worth the small wait. They gave us a little buzzer to let us know where our order was ready. FOOD: Fiesta Plate: Pork Belly, Ribs, Chicken: The grill on the chicken was fantastic. Perfect char and whatever sauce is on this chicken needs to be bottled up and sold. Sweet and grilled flavours were perfect. Pork belly was cooked well and I love the fatty portions so much. The rib was cooked well, went really well with their special sauce as well! The rice was so good too! Don't sleep on this starch because it was flavourful too! The dish came with a salad as well with their house made dressing which was creamy, had good sesame flavour, and the salad was NOT over dressed. The portions are pretty large too because my husband and I split one dish and tlwere thoroughly satisfied and full. OVERALL: This meal brought me back to family parties and gathering where you'd grill some good meat and hang out until early morning before going home. Brought me back to Hawaii honestly. I've never had Chamorro-style barbecue and I'm looking forward to having it again!

This place is awesome. I went there a few days after seeing them in that "$50 vs $50" YouTube video…read more(https://youtu.be/w8Dm9p6X01U). The food looked great in the video, plus the owner seemed genuine and passionate. I'm in. I wasn't disappointed. My favorite thing was the chicken. Some of the better damn grilled chicken thighs I've had in my life. Nice texture and tenderness. Not quite juicy, but juicy is tough to get on the grill. The char and flavor was great though. Ultimately it was just very satisfying. A plate of that chicken with the rice, salad and perhaps a combo of a second meat hits the spot when you're hungry. The pork belly I wasn't quite as impressed with. I've had better. It was a little meaty; I could have used a fair amount more of that melt-y fat. I didn't get much if any "hard fat" though, which is good; I hate the texture of that. The rice was solid. Good texture. Not much flavor or seasoning on the rice itself, but it serves it's purpose as a compliment to the other flavors. The salad was fine. Pretty standard. I liked that creamy dressing and wish there was more. I thought it was a really nice compliment to an otherwise very heavy meal. The freshness and the texture. To nitpick a bit, I could have used something to cut through the savoriness. Maybe some sort of acid or spice. Nbd though, this is comfort food, not a Michelin meal.

SERVICE: Owner always does me right! He posts his schedule on instagram weekly, so I always know when to go. It's also great that he puts his phone number in the bio so that you can text/call to place an order ahead of time. He is always super friendly and whips up a banging meal in less than 10 minutes! AMBIANCE: It's a single food truck so don't expect outdoor seating or nothing.

But today, I had the time to swing by and fortunately he was open, but SOLD OUT. Fortunately, he had a few things left over. So I said yes to a mix plate. Nolan's Hawaii accent is still thick it made me feel like I was back home on the west side for a second (!!!!thank you!!!!) I met some people outside the food stand, a business man from Hawaii and some California people I mistaken were from Hawaii as well, lol. It was an awesome interaction, from the moment I got there I got greeted by strangers waiting for food, to going up to the window and asking "so what? No more nuttin left?" Nolan's response was "Nah I only get mochicko chicken and kalua, you likem?" Haha that was a definite yes! Won't miss out on home food esp if word of mouth was already out there. So I waited a few minutes for my food, and the box was heavy. Haha it felt like when you would eat at your aunty and uncles house and they pack you the party left overs. I opened my plate lunch and I was greeted by a huge portion of chicken, pork rice and Mac salad. And let me tell you, the Mac salad didn't have so much frills like what you would see in a Portland Hawaii food joint. It was sauced, and seasoned. PERFECT! No need for all the extra add ons. As I started eating, let me say that kalua pork was no joke so moist and easy to eat not even close to dried out. The chicken tasted nice and crispy with just enough marinate and fluff. I haven't found this anywhere in Oregon..until here. Yeah sure there's a poke and katsu bar in the shopping center next door... but I take the random food cart in the parking lot any day over something franchised

The salads and pork chop presentation change regularly. Almost everyone who comes here orders the rolls, which are served warm with softened butter and jam. The squash salad was an umami bomb--delicious with curry flavors and roasted squash. I don't know how they do it, but the pork chop has yummy burnt fat bits and is juicy and tender. The preparation today was like a perfect BBQ dinner with the sides all in one bite! Everything here tastes more delicious than you would expect it to. Service is friendly, and they somehow remember who you are to bring your order out to you! No taking names here :0

So maybe give them a call or still going to the cart to checkout even if you see online ordering is down. I think they said the website ordering was down.

And once you try, you'll buy. Found this place through a YouTuber I follow. Want to see their food before you go? Check it out. https://youtu.be/EO2yiVLxOxM?si=Go7M35awipxafnPA. Got two bakes, the Chana and the Nutella. Both were amazing. I love how for just 11 bucks, two for sixteen, you can travel across the world and visit another culture. If you love fry bread (this is similar), well-seasoned, unique flavors, this is the move at this pod. Everything is made to order, and their hot sauce...omg! Show this place some love, they deserve it, maybe the best cart there. And, their friendliness (just so many smiles) and their packaging and presentation is so nice. Real paper bags, sturdy, environmentally-friendly containers, and look at that cute sample spoon. Really shows that while its about the food, sharing with the community is also about hospitality and the little extra care. Thank you so much, Chef!
