Five stars, and this one's an honorable mention that somehow turned into a regular habit. I'm talking about K-Pop at the Happy Valley food carts, and yeah, there's a reason we keep circling back like it owes us money. You ever go somewhere thinking you'll just grab a quick bite, and next thing you know you're planning your return before you've even finished chewing? That's this place. What I like is they don't box themselves in. You've got Korean, Hawaiian, and a little mix of everything going on. I lean Hawaiian most days, something about it just hits right, especially when you're not trying to go all in. Sometimes you're just grabbing food, maybe bringing something back for later, pacing yourself like a responsible adult. This is that kind of spot. It works with you, not against you. And here's the thing, I used to write those safe reviews. "It's cute. Nice service." That tells nobody anything. That's background noise. This place deserves better than that. This is a spot you actually remember. Friendly people, solid food, and a consistency that turns a casual stop into a routine. Happy Valley's already a great area, so you're starting off on the right foot just being there. But if you're walking into that food cart pod and wondering where to go, I'm telling you straight up, this is one of the top choices. No overthinking it. Take my word for it, or don't. Either way, you'll end up here eventually. read more

K-Bop - Food Trucks Near Me - Happy Valley, Oregon

This has become my favorite cart in the Happy Valley pod. The menu is an interesting mix of Korean, Japanese, and Hawaiian, which is nice to be able to mix it up each visit. My go-tos are the Shoyu or Teriyaki chicken plates, the Kalua Pork Plate, or the Bibimbap. My only do-betters are that the teriyaki chicken can sometimes be dry, and I wish both the chicken dishes came with a sauce. They do have sriracha packets if you ask. The plates come with rice, a small lettuce salad and dressing (could use a little more of that sometimes), and a mac salad with pretty simple black pepper seasoning. It's a good amount of food for the price. I also really appreciate, and choose to visit K-Bop, because they use the compostable clamshell containers, and not the wasteful single-use plastic like so many others. Recommended if you're stopping by his cart pod. read more

K-Bop - Bibimbowl - Food Trucks Near Me - Happy Valley, Oregon

We went for lunch, it was pleasantly quiet at the food trucks that day. I ordered the bulgogi, and there was so much food I ended up eating it for two meals, the meat was tender, super flavorful, and had yummy bites of carrot. The rice was sticky and the perfect amount. The food was delivered quickly, and the gentleman was super friendly. Great place! read more

Amazing fresh Hawaiian fusion food Fast service and went above and beyond. We got the spicy pork, grilled chicken , katsu chicken. All came with Mac side salad and rice. We got spam musubi and it was delicious as well. read more

False advertisement! Advertising cheap white fish as "Mahi Mahi"...Ordered the "Mahi Mahi"...what I received was NOT Mahi Mahi. When I opened the container, the fish looked so familiar to me. It looked exactly like the frozen battered white fish you buy from a grocery store --- maybe Van Kamp's frozen fish fillets or Gorton's. There was so much batter and the fish was very thin. Even the frozen battered fish you get at Costco has more meat and not just full of batter. I know the taste of Mahi Mahi and when I took the first bite, I knew it was not Mahi Mahi. What a disappointment. I tossed the entire plate in the trash. We won't be giving them our business. $14.00 wasted. What a total rip off! read more

To say I'm slightly addicted to their kalua pork and Mac salad is an understatement! I have to make myself stop eating it so I have leftovers! It usually comes with a salad which is really good, but I need extra Mac salad to go with the pork. It usually comes with 1 sauce and I got 2 because it's that good. Located at the happy valley food carts. Let's ear there so we don't lose this yummy food!! read more

Found this new food cart at the happy valley station. To begin the menu looks amazing. Enough choices to make it interesting and easy ordering process. The staff was amazing. Extremely friendly and inviting. The few questions I had about portions and flavors were answered and were accurate to what I received I got the bimibop bowl, if I spelled it correctly. Noodles, white rice, choice of veggies and choice of protein. You also choose your sauce. Buddy got the loco moco. We were more than satisfied with our dishes. The flavors were bold and portions perfect. The prices was very reasonable and came to just over $20 for two. This is my new favorite food cart at the happy valley station. I wish the owners a bright future here and look forward to coming back!!! read more

I finally decided to try one of the newer food carts at Happy Valley station. It's close by and has lots of options. This place is first cart on the right as you come in from the main parking lot area. The menu is easy to read with clear options and pricing. I went with the teriyaki...err...Hawaiian grilled chicken spicy, with white rice and salad. $9 The chicken was cooked well, a little char here and there. You can have the original sauce, or as I got, the spicy Korean gochujang sauce. The sauce is original in terms of a spicy teri sauce...not terribly spicy but tasty. Chicken was cooked, not dry There is a scoop of white rice, salad and side of Mac. The Mac dropped it down one star, it was kinda bland for me. I really like Bamboo Grove, Roxy's Mac salad. Service was very prompt and friendly. I will. E back to try their other options for sure read more

So good! They changed up their spam musubi from when they first started and it's now perfection! Great quality of food and the flavor is on point. read more

I was super excited to see that a new korean/hawaiian food cart was about to open up. I LOVE korean and hawaiian food. Anyways they have bibimbap and it's a create your own bowl. You get to choose your veggies, protien, and sauce. I got the bibimbap with all the veggies, spicy pork and with the spicy korean sauce. It did not disappoint. The egg was cooked perfectly, the yolk was runny. All the veggies tasted super fresh and was not soggy. I like a little crunch texture of veggies. I would definitely come back and try the other dishes and also try the bibimbap with a different type or protein and sauce. We also tried the loco moco which was pretty good too! The beef patty was seasoned pretty good and the egg was cooked perfect as well! Always have to have a runny egg on top of your loco moco! read more

$15 for loco moco. Way overpriced for the portion. Mac salad tasted like reesers and the gravy and patty did not taste good at all.

The shoyu chicken and the ribs were amazing! We've never been here before but are very glad we went. Parking took a minute but was to be expected for a Friday evening. The people were very nice and quick. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area! read more

K-Bop - Here's the K-bop Hawaii food truck at Happy Valley Station. - Food Trucks Near Me - Happy Valley, Oregon

Hands down one of my favorite food carts! I've never had such a juicy Shoyu Chicken and I will always come here when I'm craving! I'm usually hesitant to order Shoyu Chicken because most of the time it is dry. I can't even make it to my liking at home - but they nailed it! My husband loves Loco Moco and says this is his favorite place to get it. Also, I really appreciate that they don't skimp out on the mac salad cause I LOVE mac salad. I really want to come back and try their bibimbap bowls...another review to come~ read more

K-Bop - Short Ribs Teriyaki Chicken Spicy Pork Build Your Own Bibim Bowl - Food Trucks Near Me - Happy Valley, Oregon

I admit we haven't really made it a point to go to HV Station (price point seems high for food carts and portions) but I popped in with my kids for lunch after their Ortho appt and found this gem. I ordered 2 of their Bibim bowls and it was definitely worth the $10. This is a difficult dish to make as it requires a bunch of the Korean side dishes to be mixed in. My kids even gobbled it down, veggies and all. The one on the left is with the beef and house special sauce (kind of a teriyaki flavor) and the right is the spicy pork with the spicy Korean sauce. High maintenance husband approved as well read more

Delicious and healthy option in the Happy Valley area. The owners are kind and always helpful. The food is always fresh and balanced.

We got 2 of the bowls (spicy beef and chicken) plus the grilled chicken entree. Everything was so good. The spicy beef was definitely the favorite. The seasoning was perfect, so fresh, 3 meals ready in under 10 minutes. Korean and Hawaiian pairs so well together and K-Bop does it right! read more

Hands down my favorite cart! I love how fresh the food tastes and how big the portions are for the price. I get KBop at least once per month. read more

I would've gave this place 4 or 5 stars. The food was delicious and the pictures on the menu looked exactly like what I got. The prices are reasonable. However, I ordered 2 sides and I MADE SURE to remind them that the sides were in my order. The lady swore she put the orders in my plate. When I got home I didn't see any of those sides in my plate. It may be 4 bucks down the drain but money is money and I was looking forward to eating those sides. Lame!!! Not a good first experience for me. read more

Katsu chicken cooked perfectly! Good portions and good price for the area. would recommend

Made a bimbim bowl with spicy pork, both rice and noodles & egg, with lots of vegetable. I was reluctant at first but I should have never been. Amazing flavor, cheap, friendly and helpful!! read more

Ive been trying locomoco in many places in Portland and Ive finally found a place that suit my taste. Also very nice large portion and for only $10. Will be back for sure! read more

Finally got around to trying this cart and it's pretty solid if you have a Korean + Hawaiian food craving in the area. Highly recommend the Loco Moco and custom Bibim bowl (w/ Spicy Korean or House sauce). The Loco Moco meat is well seasoned (teriyaki style perhaps?) and does not taste like they gave you a hamburger patty from a backyard bbq. The patty packs a good amount of flavor not making you feel tired of eating it. Best Loco Moco I've had in town, and to be honest it tastes better than any Loco Moco I've had in Hawaii. Shoyu chicken and chicken are ok, but I'd much rather have the Loco Moco or Bibim bowl. read more

I'm pretty picky when it comes to Korean food and not a lot of Korean places can impress me but K-Bop changed me. My boyfriend and I ordered bibimbap and it was great! Give you a good amount of food, unlimited toppings and sauces, and there's a good variety of protein choices to choose from! Will definitely come here again! read more

It's a very nice place to eat. We had Bibim Bowl, Short ribs, Spicy pork, and Teriyaki chicken. Myself, my wife and children we all loved the food!!! read more

While the food was hot, it was lacking majorly in flavor. I had the kahlua pork and it was sooooo mediocre. Juicy but no flavor. Mac salad was as bland as bland gets. Then there's the side salad with the weird dressing. Idk what it was, but it wasn't good. If you want good kahlua pork, don't try it here read more

I am going back! The food was really good, service was quick, and the portion sizes were a great value. So yummy! Thank you!
