    buns on the run
    Trung N.

    3.5 stars Twas hungry so I grabbed a quick and easy snack from this food cart which was conveniently located near our hotel. Everything from Buns On The Run is relatively cheap. For around $10 bucks, I got a Philly cheesesteak. The Philly cheesesteak comes with steak, grilled onions, bell peppers, jalapeños with melted Swiss cheese on a toasted pioneer roll. Was this the best version of this sandwich I've ever had? Definitely not, though I do suspect it had something to do with the toasted pioneer roll and lacked the girth of other Philly cheesesteaks. Despite all these minor quips, I did appreciate the addition of the jalapeños because it packed some heat into each bite. Well Downtown Portland is still in the process of recovery, so many of the renown food pods cease to exist anymore. Buns on the Run isn here for your sandwich needs.

    This review is for their hot dogs only. I got two different hot dogs, all beef and their polish dog. I'd get both again anyday. What made it above average is the grilled hot dog bun, the hot dogs are cut down the middle and grilled and their grilled onions.

    The best Philly cheese steak sandwich and chili fries I have had in a long time!! It was delicious and well seasoned! I highly recommend!

    Nachos

    Came here with my boyfriend and ordered s nachos and a burger. The nachos were the nasties thing I've ever eaten. All the chips were STALE and He literally dumped crumbs into the container. I'm so annoyed. The burger was okay. Not great. Not delicious. Just okay. I could've saved my money. Save yours and don't eat here.

    Philly Cheese Steak add lettuce and mayo-so damn good!

    As someone who only eats halal, I LOVE this place! The Philly cheese steak was one of the best halal steaks I have ever had. The bun was soft, the meat and cheese were great quality and the service my entire group received was incredible considering this place isn't a traditional storefront. We enjoyed our experience so much that we came back two days in a row and ordered multiple steaks-even one for the plane ride home and it was just as amazing cold as it is warm. My friend and I cannot wait to go back to Portland just to eat here again. Thank you so much Buns on the Run for making our Portland trip even more amazing than it already was! Definitely stop here for a quick and delicious meal!

    NOT a Chicago style hot dog

Plenty of places to sit for solo diners to large-ish groups. Much of the seating is covered, and heated when the weather calls for it, and everything is kept clean. But people likely come here for the food, and this place doesn't dissapoint. There is a huge variety, from waffles, to Thai, to Sushi, Fish & chips, Mexican and so much more. There is even a bar in the back. I have to give a shout out to Smaaken Waffle Sandwiches. My partner had the chicken and waffle sandwich, and they were pretty happy about it. I had the Kid size PB & Bananas with honey, and OMG it was nummy. I took home half because it was a large serving. The waffles were perfect: crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. If you enjoy food cart dining, (or just haven't found a place you like), I encourage you to try this elevated cart dining experience. *I would caution people with mobility issues to not use the entrance at the corner, and use one of the other entrances instead.

It features diverse, global cuisine such as Lebanese, Mexican, Korean, Thai and more. I couldn't decide what to have. I circled it 3 times. So many options. It's vibrant and friendly vibes. Many vendors have phone texts option to alert you the food is ready. I enjoyed a lot. I could see myself go back to try more things.

Indoor seating area accommodates small and large groups. We were greeted warmly once we entered. Pick your items and order at the counter when you are ready. We chose the fish sauce wings, nam khao crispy rice, beef jerkey with papaya salad and a side of sticky rice. Everything was fresh and so yummy. Be mindful that spice level is Thai style and might be spicier than you are used too. We ended up buying some beef jerkey bags to go it was so delicious.

Spirits were high. Expectations were hot. Unfortunately... the restaurant was not. I'm not exaggerating when I say it felt colder inside than outside. We had just survived crazy wind chill and somehow walked into what felt like the extended edition of winter. I could see it in my family's eyes -- if I made them stay, I might be eating that khao poon alone. After about five minutes of studying the menu (and seriously debating toughing it out), we had to call it. Between shivering and imagining our soup cooling at record speed, it just wasn't going to work. We genuinely wanted to stay -- which is the tough part. Please, for the love of warm noodles everywhere, get some heaters going in there. We'll happily come back when we can feel our fingers while holding the spoon.

    Ah man! I was so excited to try this food truck after reading the reviews. We arrived just after…read morethey opened and the gentleman at the window was very friendly and helpful. I tipped generously assuming the food was going to be excellent. We ordered 2 Langua tacos, asada burrito, carnitas burrito and a carnitas quesadilla. We were told that it would be about 15 minutes. The space is right on 26, so fairly noisy. There were a few tables an available. The food was ready on time and we went home. I cut the carnitas burrito in half for my daughter and found 2 large bones. My other daughter, who ordered the carnitas quesadilla, found a bone as well. The carnitas itself had good flavor but an abundance of grease was an issue. The asada was pretty good and balanced with the beans and rice. The Langua had some spice to it and was flavorful and tender. The tomatillo and spicy sauce were great. The burritos were mislabeled on there boxes (asada was carnitas and vise versa). Pretty disappointed and hope this occurrence is not the norm.

Parking was a little tricky but o opted to park off street and walk. Looked like it was a popular spot. I ordered some tacos and waited maybe 10 minutes. The place itself is clean. There is a large menu on the wall and the ordering process was simple. Unfortunately, they did not have margaritas. The tacos were plated beautifully. Everything was fresh, I wish they were a little more flavorful. The sauces helped. My tripa tacos could have been less chewy. I also ordered lengua and it was by far the best. Their could have been a little more meat on all of them. They did have an option to do that for an additional fee. Tacos were priced at $2 each.
