They call it the smoke out smash burger. Black pepper-crusted and smoked beef patty in the stye of Steak Au Poivre, complimented by grilled corn and hot cherry peppers, smothered in pepper jack cheese and a tomato aioli with a firecracker explosion of flavor! That's what it says in the description and are you afraid it would be too smoky? Well, it isn't. Then I was afraid it would be too spicy. Well, it isn't. What it really is is a delicious juicy bite of a burger, very well done composition of taste, texture, and simply delicious. It's always the service at Big Chicken is fast, very friendly, and there is so much room in the nice designed restaurant that coming back is not a question, but only when.

I grew up in rural Oregon in the mid-80s and it seems like back then every crappity-ass gas station…read morein every little podunk town had great fried chicken and jojos (maybe this was some kind of Logger's Delight, I dunno.) Now it's like you really have to look for a place that gets it right. My wife and I discovered Reel M Inn just before they temporarily closed indefinitely, so we only got to try them once. My understanding is that until a few years ago, Sadie's had the same owners, so they essentially served the same version of chicken and jojos. So, how does Sadie Mae's compare to what is widely viewed as the best fried chicken and jojos in Portland? Very well. The chicken was super crispy, but it didn't really taste that well seasoned. It was good, but not quite as good as Reel M Inn. The jojos, however, were outstanding. Possibly the best jojos I've had in my life. Perfect amount of seasoning, and they weren't heavily dredged (coated with flour, etc.) just the seasoning and the potatoes. Perfect. Something that was a bit surprising was that neither the chicken nor the jojos were greasy at all. Other reviewers have mentioned they use an air fryer, so that makes sense. I'll definitely be back, if only cause they're closer to home, but Sadie Mae's is absolutely a worthy alternative to Reel M Inn.

For my first ever experience with African food, Somali food in particular, this will be hard to…read moretop. Mira's was a good introduction to a cuisine that I will try again soon. Over on NE 82nd and Davis is a newer food pod called The Yard, with about 10-15 carts and it happens to be close to where I live. I've hit up a couple of the carts so far but Mira's wasn't usually open when I've been by. Comfort food. That's what my take on Somali food is. At least from what I ate, a dish called Baris and Maraq. A lamb and vegetable stew. On a side note: watch for bones. This stew was loaded with tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, carrots and plenty of lamb all slow cooked over rice. It was the suggestion of the woman running the cart. She said it was one of the most popular items on the menu. She was correct. The other favorite item on the menu was was a beef or chicken option in a dish called Suger. The stew came with two sauces, one a yogurt based sauce and the other, a red sauce, but it wasn't spicy. Nothing was, but it was very tasty. The stew is heavily based on the tomatoes, but you could taste everything. Well seasoned and the lamb was fall off the bone tender. There was also a small salad consisting of diced tomatoes, cucumbers and onions. Basically a palette cleanser. Similar to most Asian restaurants in town, there's enough food that you won't leave hungry. I can easily say that I want to explore more of this menu. I guess I'll see what she suggests next time. Every once in a while it's nice to try a new food that you've never even thought to try. I'm glad I did. Enjoy and support local.

I understand that mistakes can happen, and I hope this feedback can be used to help prevent these issues in the future. Thank you for taking the time to address my concerns.

I was a little hungry for some dinner and came across this food truck while perusing through Yelp…read more I noted that the location was about 1/2 mile from where I was staying so that made it convenient. I have always known Portland to be a mecca for food trucks and I have tried a couple and they did not disappoint. It was getting late in the evening and sun was still out and the temps were still on the warm side. There were about 4 other food trucks that were still open and serving food. next time I am in the area I will try the other ones. Firstly parking was a little difficult though I found one right in front of the main entrance. There was a sign that indicated that free parking was available across the street. There were a number of tables arranged in a small courtyard (including an interesting spaceship dining area) and a fire pit which I assume is used duing the colder winter months. Anyways I ordered the beef kebab over rice for $17.99. It took about 10 minutes for my order to appear (which was a to-go order) and I noticed the food was being made fresh in the back. The food in my opinion was quite good and everything tasted really nice. For the price it was a good amount of food however I wished they had thrown in a piece of flat bread for the nice hummus. I will definitely try out the other trucks the next time I am in the area.

They have some really nice varieties to choose from and food was delivered with no problem. The portions are ample for sure, but so are the toppings and proteins. They really didn't skimp on any of that. Cajun had a little kick, Street was sweet and spicy, and loaded was different than what I've had before, but definitely good. And the bacon on it was terrific. My partner wanted onion rings because they looked like the type he likes (they were) so I figured I'd also get some sweet potato fries to munch on since mac will reheat just fine (and it did). We ordered boneless wings and they're actually more like chicken tenders (just not quite as big). It meant more bang for your buck actually. We mistakenly ordered them with a dry rub because we do prefer them sauced. They had flavor but I just grabbed something from the fridge to dip and all was good. We would definitely order from here again.
