Ordering thru the QR code was okay, but we felt the description of the dishes lacking. No option to ask for added spice level, so that was disappointing. No one came to our table to see if we needed anything, after our food was dropped off at our table.

Probably some of the BEST vegan food I've had in Portland over the past several months. I had the chicken nuggets with the kale Caesar and the flavor in both was simply phenomenal.

I assume the food tastes much better when you're drunk. I've been vegan for 16 years and it was divey food. I did NOT like the nachos at all. My daughter thankfully did. My son really disliked the burger so I got him Buddy's Chic'n tenders or nuggets - those were amazing. So good especially the seasoning in the breading. I got buffalo wingz and they were great. As expected. I.got their version of a Sazerac, which was meh. Not awful but not good either. Lol It's not AWFUL but I'd definitely not pick it again.

All-vegan, authentic, Vietnamese hole-in-the-wall serving up pretty solid veganized versions of…read moreclassic Vietnamese dishes. We stopped here for lunch during the week. I ordered the Bo Bun Hieu ($15) -- a spicy noodle soup served with vegan beef, tofu, and round noodles, with a very generous side of cabbage, lettuce, and fresh basil to mix in. The broth was very flavourful but prohibitively salty after all. That said, the vegan beef and tofu were really nicely one, and the meal came together well. My wife got the kung pao ($15), which she said was solid but nothing tantalizing flavour-wise. My friend ordered the curry soup, but it seemed more like a curry that you pour over rice since it was served with rice and no noodles -- not sure what the deal was there. The bite I tried was tasty at least. All in all, a solid all-vegan no-frills spot for Vietnamese in the east part of the city.

My coworkers and I were on our way to the airport but wanted our last meal to support local in…read morePortland so we thought we'd give Night Owl PNW a try. We called them around 8:05 pm (they open at 8 pm) to place a pick up order and they said that they were running late so they'd have our food ready at 9:00 which we told them that it's no problem so they took our order. Heads up, this is a food truck in between 'The Bite on Belmont' and 'Kind Coffee' so if you want to try Night Owl PNW, you're going to have to street park. My coworkers and I came to the food truck right around 8:50 but they didn't open their truck until 9:10. The owner told us that the sandwiches would be ready within a couple minutes but unfortunately we didn't get to our food until 10. While I appreciate the owners trying to make up for the lateness by throwing us a coupe extra cookies, my coworkers and I ended up rushing to the airport and could not enjoy the sandwiches in a relaxed setting like how we originally planned. Here is what we ordered: 1) Where's the Beef? Loaded with roast beef and I enjoyed the pickled red onions! There's also horseradish so if you like that, then this is a good choice 2) Sassy Cassy Melt I loved this one so much. It's like a charceuterie board in a sandwich. The creaminess from the brie, saltiness from the prociutto, and the sweetness from the apple slices & fruit preserves is just *chef's kiss* 3) The Murphy Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised from this one. Similar to the 'Where's the Beef', this sandwich is loaded with ham and I loved how there was garlic aioli and pickled red onion to enhance the flavors. 4) Presto Pesto This was another sandwich I was pleasantly surprised with. The pesto, greens, and tomato were fresh and I loved the toasted ciabatta bread. 5) The Tony This was an interesting one. It's like a pizza but sandwich... but also like a big toasted bread with pizza toppings? It's a little confusing but it tasted pretty good! I guess this will be a good option if you're craving a pizza but you happen to be at this food truck haha. Dessert 1) Cookies & Cream Cookie I really liked this cookie! It had that crunch on the outside but soft texture on the inside 2) Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookie Although I love chocolate and peanut butter cookies, this one was falling apart a little too easily so it made it hard to eat but that flavors were great 3) Wild Oatmeal Cookie I personally don't like raisins but I enjoyed how there were potato chips on top to give it that sweet and salty combo. In general, I wish all the cookies were a little bigger in size because $2.50 for these tiny cookies are definitely a little pricey. But it's also in Portland so I'm not that surprised. 4) Death by chocolate cupcake Super rich but a delicious chocolate cupcake that will satisfy your sweet tooth for sure! Overall, really solid sandwich place that carefully combines a variety of high quality ingredients together. I love the decorations and the creative names that goes with the food. I really wanted to give this place a 5/5 and again, I appreciate the owners for trying their best and giving us some free cookies to make up for the delay but my coworkers and I were given a false sense of hope when the owner said it would only be a few minutes when it was actually close to an hour. Plus we ended up having to rush to the airport from the delay so that was a little stressful. But if you're just swinging by this place and it's already open & ready to go, I would totally give this place a try!

Caffe Destino was an accidental find, while house-shopping one weekend. We decided to stop in for a quick bite. Gosh, did we make the right decision. We're going on two-months of visiting Caffe Destino almost every single weekend. I look forward to it every week. Everything about this establishment is fabulous! First, you walk in to find a lovely walk-up counter with a menu just large enough to offer multiple options without being overwhelming. Second, the staff is always friendly and meets you with a smile. Thirdly, their food choices are fantastic, nothing we've ordered has been anything less than fabulous. Our usual choice are the Berry Bowl, Avocado Toast, and the Destino Special (my favorite!). My partner LOVES the Berry Bowl which has now become his #1 choice. He raves about it. The Destino Special is always perfectly done. Eggs cooked any way you like them, choice of meat, potatoes, and a bread option. Now, if I could, I'd do the bacon & cheddar biscuit with it every week (upcharge from the normal choices) but alas, it is HUGE! Nonetheless, the meal is fabulous, cooked to order, and served hot, without fail. Coffee is on-point for PDX, not overwhelming and piping hot every time. The ambiance is great, indoors and outdoors! Price is extremely fair and parking is always somewhere nearby. I cannot rave enough about this little gem hidden in the Alameda Neighborhood just behind the Whole Foods. Give it a try and thank me later!
