    Pork cheeks with cheese polenta with carrots and parsnips
    Cindy I.

    Sad to say I am taking away a star. They don't have the same meals as before. Now it is really sandwiches and soft serve. I miss the high quality meals. Went recently and got the fried chicken sandwich. Seems like good quality chicken but not crisp breading for most of the sandwich and the bun was nothing special. I did like the fries. Jojos is so much better. I did ask if I should get the chicken or fried pork sandwich and he recommended the chicken. Please bring back the wonderful meals and I will come back.

    Radicchio salad with grilled chicken

    OK, yes this place has great fried things and soft serve and brunch and a schnitzel sandwich and amazing slaw. BUT... don't sleep on the salads! These things are beautifully, plated, and more importantly absolutely delicious and refreshing. This place is my summer go-to food cart. The grilled chicken is tender and perfectly seasoned. These salads make me feel incredibly nourished. My favorite is the radicchio, but I also really like the beet salad.

    Rockfish Sandwich

    Stopped by one day and got a Rockfish Sandwich. Overall, it was pretty tasty but there was a lot of Aioli, which between that and the delicacy of Rockfish made the sandwich fall apart in a hurry.

    Satisfying, could be even better though
    Andrew A.

    The ample sized roxkfifish was crispy and flavorful, the condiments fitting, but bun was low end. Also, cabbage or slaw would be a nice upgrade from iceberg lettuce. Nevertheless, it's the kinda place that I want to sample more of the menu. The guy in the cart was cool. About average wait time. The default tip is a silly 25%, but this is inner Portland so I'm used to it.

    FANTASTIC!

    They were nice, friendly. The fish n chips was superb. Flaky and tender done to perfection. The fries weren't under done over over cooked just right! I will keep coming back Thankyou all of you

    Go out of your way to visit this cart! Their food is so fresh, delicious, creative, and the staff is super kind. They have some great seasonal fish sandwiches, their potatoes are delicious, and they have a great vibe. They have a really cool red food cart and they are in Hinterland, which is awesome.

    Delicious rockfish chowder and arugula salad!

    One day I didn't budget my time properly so I was looking for lunch that wasn't fast food that I…read morecould eat in the car. Fish and chips to the rescue. I got the cod. It had a panko crust which sometimes I prefer to batter. They were a little bit salty for my taste but ever since I got COVID lots of things have tasted salty so take that with a grain of salt I'm not a tartar sauce guy but this is some great sauce. I feel like later I got a piece of tarragon(?) out of my teeth and reminded me of the herby yummy sauce. I scoffed at first at the chips. Very non uniformly cut but surprisingly all well cooked. I don't know if it's they type of potato but the skin was really off putting. But solid toothsome chips that a splash of vinegar helps a lot. If I end up in a similar position again I'll definitely consider coming back.

    Friendly owners. Sizzling fresh food. Price was decent for a food cart serving seafood. I got the…read morelarge serving for $16 and that was a good choice. I came after a review I read on Eater for FoPo area eats. I'm not a huge fried food fan but this place was good. I got the Steelhead trout fish and chips. Wait was ok they give you a buzzer so you can stroll around the food court. Took about 10 mins not bad. The locally sourced steelhead was a delicious surprise. Tender, juicy fish with crispy breading. Good seasoning. Fries were thicker so not as crispy but still hearty. 3 medium sized pieces of fish. They included ketchup for the fries as well as malt vinegar and tartar sauce for authentic fish dip. Wedge of lemon, too! All in a earth-friendly cardboard box. They take credit just fine. Very convenient location at Carts on Foster just down the street from where I was staying. So I walked back and enjoyed there. If you're staying you could probably cruise over to any local breweries or the bar cart for a beer to complement the fried food. Good time!!!

    TLDR: Popular Portland food truck with a long wait, friendly service, and filling sandwiches that…read morewere worth it. ------ One of my Portland friends brought us here, and it ended up being a great recommendation. The food truck is located inside a food truck plaza with plenty of options nearby and ample outdoor seating with picnic tables. This particular food truck had a long line, which made the wait to order a bit lengthy. However, it was well worth it. The woman taking orders was incredibly kind and bubbly, which added to the overall experience. After ordering, the food took about 20 minutes to come out, but I did not mind since the sandwiches ended up being really good. The sandwiches were flavorful and very filling. Honestly, I probably could have been satisfied with just one sandwich. Overall, I thought this spot was worth the wait. I would definitely come back if I were in Portland again.

    Came here after seeing that they have a scotch egg sando and knew I had to try it! This food truck…read moreis located in a food cart area with a ton of carts around so there's ample seating and a variety of options if you're coming with a group. The line ended up being pretty long around 3pm on a Saturday (they close at 3:30pm) and between ordering and getting our food, we waited about 30 min. I did really like the sando though. The scotch egg was nicely fried and crispy on the outside with a soft gyoza stuffing filling. My only wish is that it was a bit easier to eat and that it had more seasoning as the gyoza filling was a bit bland and the egg smaller than I thought it was be. But overall pretty tasty and definitely worth trying. I'll have to come back and try their OG Tokyo Nando sandwich.
