Oh my, city ties food is absolutely amazing. The staff is very friendly and quite humorous. The ambience is cute. I will definitely be back. Shop local.

Tamarind Whiskey Sour
Katie S.

This place is consistently so good. The employees are super nice too. The ambiance is super cute! Now the food...I usually get the potato curry or the garlic & pepper w/soy curls (medium spice). Both options are delicious! The soy curls are just the perfect vegetarian option (I eat meat but love the soy curls). I get the chicken with the potato curry. It is mild and perfect for a rainy Portland day. Now their cocktails...tamarind whiskey sour is so flavorful (and strong). The lychee martini is so smooth and fresh. Also...you can order them for delivery (extra strong). Love this neighborhood spot so much (and it's not even our neighborhood). Worth the drive or bike ride or whatever.

City Thai in Hillsdale is truly one of my favorite Thai restaurants in Portland. The atmosphere is cute, cozy, and welcoming, and the food has a more authentic Thai taste compared to many other places in the city that tend to make dishes too sweet. My go-to favorites are pork dumplings, and the Thai-style shrimp paella rice--all cooked to perfection and full of flavor. The owner(Summer) is incredibly kind, caring, and always makes me feel at home. The service here is both warm and professional, with staff who are attentive and always smiling. Another thing I love is that they change their seasonal menu every six months, which keeps the dining experience fresh and exciting. If you're looking for authentic Thai cuisine with consistent quality, a cozy atmosphere, and genuinely friendly service, City Thai is a place I highly recommend.

Our go-to neighborhood Thai joint where we usually order takeout. We've been coming here for years but they've tightened up their game recently, revamped the menu and spiffed up the interior a bit, and the dishes and flavors are more consistent these days. We usually get one of the stir fry's, and my recent Pad Prik King order was especially tasty, with just the right amount of heat and garlic and plenty of meat. Pro tip: this is pretty universal but if you order takeout the portions are usually smaller than what you'd get if you dined there. And you should dine there: it's a pleasant, cozy atmosphere inside considering there's a strip mall outside, they have beer, wine and even some mixed drinks, and the servers are all super nice and patient. Usually plenty of parking, too.

Oh man. Did something happen here? One of the only dishes alive liked here is the Pad See Ew. I picked some up today and it is a wet, soggy, mess. No spice. No flavor. Just sweet and watery. I think my days of coming here are over. I don't know what happened, but yeeesh. So bad.

Mango mojito is AMAZING!
Karen R.

Thank you for being open during a snow/ice storm for HOT Tom Yum soup and COLD mango mojitos. Excellent food, drink, service, ambience.

My favorite - red curry with tofu, medium spicy.  perfection!

It's on the street level of a multistory apartment building, with big windows that look out onto Capital Highway, which makes for good people watching, and there's a dozen or so tables --- both low and high ---- inside for seating. A couple of TV screens are tucked up into the corners, but the vibe is definitely not that of a sports bar; more of a semi-private club. Thumbs up to these guys for usually having an interesting, off-the-beaten-path selection of beers, ciders and wines. It's always fun to try something new, Alas, there's no food - like, at all - which is why I'm taking off a star, but otherwise it's a throughly pleasant (if kind of generic, decor-wise) space in which to enjoy a tasty brew among the friendly local denizens of Multnomah Village.

This place is retro, shabby, comfy, and delightful. Here in the heart of the Oregon craft beer…read morescene, this place is the flagship of all things sold that come in a sealed container. Thousands of options here in one gigantic marketplace, and something for everyone! The marketplace itself is quite dated. Yet it is eclectic and quirky. It is welcoming and irrefutably very memorable. There is a dedicated area to serve beer on tap with a list of about 12 options and then there is a restaurant with a limited menu. Mostly things like burgers, sandwiches, and other common pub fair. There are vegetarian options available. When your order is ready, they use an overhead mic that is resemblance of something that you would hear over the loudspeaker at an 80s rollerskating rink. On site, there are bathrooms and areas for seating that include bar tops, high tops, and even a couple of comfy couches. There is an outdoor patio that is very inviting during the warmer months of the year. Ultimately, this is an incredibly impressive presentation of beverages. Perhaps even something that some people would consider a museum of sorts. Either way, there is definitely choices for everyone, and this is an establishment that can't be missed. Yes, you can visit the other location on Powell, but nothing will ever match up to the original location here in Multnomah village. An experience, a chance to shop and stockpile some beer, but truly a showcase of excellence in beer culture in the heart of our city.

It was neat, clean and welcoming. There is seating upstairs (with the restrooms). It was early evening and the lighting is perfect. The food was WAY above average. I had the fish tacos which were extremely tasty and I wasn't disappointed. Everyone else had the fish and chips which had a light batter. To a person they were very pleased with their meals. The service was great and somewhat remarkable since there was only one server on the floor. They have a large beer selection. I recommend this place for a light spring/summer meal. They have sandwiches, hamburgers and pizza offerings. Check it out.

And just like before I was totally satisfied with the experience. The place is now run by the Grand Son of the original owner of the Crab Bowl. And, he has done a great job of dressing up the place, Ok , about the food. We had the Fish & Chips, and I've never had better. There is a good selection of Beers, plus only one Cider at this time with more coming. The service is Good, I've already mentioned the Ambiance. Needless to say we Will be returning to sample more of the varied selections on the Menu. Should you try this place out? Definitely. P.S. I gave the rating of Four Stars only because I believe that room for Improvement always exists. Otherwise I am completely satisfied.
