We got the tapsilog as well, with a side order of red hot dogs. The tapa wasn't quite the same texture as traditional tapa. Halo halo was yummy! The star of the show are their bbq skewers (not pictured). The taste is very traditional and brings nostalgia from Filipino parties. I would come back specifically for their bbq skewers!

We ended up buying more than we planned on buying. Impulse buying? Maybe! But, when I see something not carried in other Asian stores, when I see something in the baked goods not carried anywhere else. . . this is where you can find them. Snacks, smoked fish, various types of canned sardines, they're ALL HERE! What's missing? Fresh fruits, but they're already found at Safeway or Freddies!

Upon the first bite, everything was good! We got the lumpia plates and the pineapple kicker hamburger, and they came in generous portion. Everything was crunchy and served hot, they were enjoyable. Then we started noticing things are a bit different when I bit into the pancit. It's quite... sour! Then I noticed my lumpia tasted quite dry as well. That's when my boyfriend said he wished his burger buns were less soggy. We put more thoughts into this meal, and came up with this conclusion: we understand it's "fusion food", but the thing I like about Filipino food, is it's fatty and delicious. So when food tasted dry-ish and sour, I got confused! I might try some other items on their menu later, fingers crossed!!

I recall there being a HunnyBeez cart in Newberg, and have always wanted to try it out. Found out…read morethey had a location in Aloha near us! The lumpia is nice and crisp, the shanghai version is kind of like potsticker filling - filled with seasoned ground pork. However, they looked a bit burnt and had a stale flavor on the crispy skin. This was particularly evident in their fries - oddly dark, oily and a strange flavor. It may be due to old frying oil. Brisket is pretty good, nice seasonings. Rice that comes with it is overcooked mush though. Pick your sides wisely! I think this will be a pass for us in the future.

Well, after finally getting a chance to browse all the pods, I found Dad's chicken, but nothing was grillin'. So I came back here to Pares PDX Express instead. Checked out the side menu, checked out the prices, and out comes a brutha from anotha mutha! Welcomes me, so I asked my pare "What's good?" He said, "Everything!" smh, "Damn!" A good sign :(but not a good sign for me healthwise:) haha! I asked how long he's been open, and he said, "Since September." Still fresh and new to me, so my yelpie duty was to support my locals. Here's what I ordered: Drawn to the Crispy Kare-Kare ($15), this caught my eyes! (Optional read) Typically, the Filipino kare-kare meat used is with cuts of chuck steak and boney beef neck. Some like using pork hocks. Sometimes kare-kare will have beef tripe added. But personally for me, I love my mom's version using oxtail. I don't like the neck, I don't need tripe, it's gotta be OXTAIL!!! Besides, it's all about the stew and the saucy peanut buttery flavor. About Pares PDX kare-kare version... I saw "Crispy" and knew this was referring to either crispy pata or lechon kawali (aka deep fried pork belly with skin). They serve their kare-kare with crispy pork belly, bok choy, long string beans, and eggplant. The stew of peanut sauce was drizzled on top. With the home-made shrimp bagoong (fried shrimp paste) in between. I would have stayed outside on the patio tables, but it was going to rain. So I rushed home, and mmm mmm mmm the pieces were still nice and crispy indeed! I haven't had pork belly in so long that I was in heaven, not worrying if I needed to go to the hospital afterwards lol. You can have the dish with plain rice or garlic rice. I chose the garlic rice, which is almost a given. A bit of more information: ~ They've got a QR code to view the menu and/or place an order. ~ Majority or nearly all of the dishes were $15 average. ~ To feed your eyes, there are pics of the dishes on the side of the truck. ~ Service was pleasant and fast. Can't say I'll ever order what I can make myself, like adobo, sisig, pinoy style spaghetti, or lumpia, but I will definitely be back to try their version of pansit palabok, laing, dinuguan, and turon. I'll even try their "halo halo" next time! The Filipino authenticity, kinda like mom's style is here! Come check them out!

I'm leaving this review primarily for the incredibly frustrating and seemingly systemic…read moreunreliability when ordering delivery from PDX PARES. Multiple times now, I have placed an order, watched the status change to "Confirmed" and even "Preparing," only for the restaurant or their system to cancel the order abruptly after the Dasher is already assigned or on their way. This is not just a minor inconvenience; it completely wastes time and effort planning a meal. A major contributing factor is that they frequently forget to close and update their DoorDash channel, showing they are available for online ordering when they are not. It gives the false hope that the food is on its way, only to be cancelled last minute, forcing a scramble to find dinner/lunch elsewhere. The management needs to seriously address their online order process, communication with delivery platforms, and their kitchen capacity. If you cannot fulfill an order, it should be rejected immediately, not 30-40 minutes after confirmation. Until this issue is fixed, I cannot recommend ordering from here, especially for delivery. It's too unreliable to depend on.
