Let me start by saying that on my previous trip to Portland I tried Mama Chow's and my memory of…read morethis location has stuck with me since then. I knew that the next time I came to visit Portland I was going to have Mama Chow's again. It's been almost six years since I tried Mama Chow's for the first time and there's always that anxiety of wondering if the food is as good as the memory was since so much time has passed. I can confirm that the food was just as good as the last time I had it. I arrived a little after 12pm and Jeff Chow helped us. He was so nice about explaining the items on the menu to my partner, saying happy new year to us, and making us feel welcoming because we were his first customers of the day. I ordered the chicken wings with garlic noodles and it didn't disappoint. So much flavor in the garlic noodles and the sauce that comes with it. The fried chicken was amazing as well with the right amount of flavor and crunch on the outside and tenderness on the inside. My hope is that I don't have to wait another six years to come back to Portland, but when I do I'll be visiting Mama Chow's Kitchen again.

There is plenty of seating there and It looked like there was a space for live music and string lights - probably a fun spot to grab dinner in the evening. We came for lunch and ordered the chao mian with chicken (spicy) and bian bian noodles (spicy). The noodles are cooked to order and we were served quickly. The serving sizes are huge. Neither one of us could finish ours. We'll likely order one dish to split next time, and that'd still probably be more than enough. The flavor of the chao mian was a bit lackluster. It was savory with a soy sauce flavor base, but got a bit repetitive with each bite. It was decently spicy and texture was there with the veggies, but I wish there was a way to customize with more spice or vinegar to taste. The bian bian noodles were more flavorful and also spicier. Fun noodle texture. There are also other vendors in the garden so you can pair a dessert, drink, or side with your meal while staying in the same area. Overall, a filling meal for a good price! Would come again to try their beef noodle soup.

I like Mediterranean food and gyros because it tastes yummy, it's refreshing, and it's a well balanced meal! They offer over 30 items on their menu, including a few sides. I opted for #13 which is the lamb plate because it looked delicious based off of the menu picture. What I got was slightly different from what was displayed because the meat is not made the same way, however it was still yummy! The rice was cooked kind of al dente and it also had different colors to it. The colors were ranging from white, yellow, and bright orange which was interesting. I ate everything up, and basically licked the hummus and tzatziki sauce from the plate until it was clean. I was satisfied with the meal. Service was relatively fast the worker was nice. After placing the order, you are given a buzzer. I went 1 hour after they opened on a Monday and I got my food within 10 minutes. Also, there are a lot of cute pigeons in the seating area, so watch out where you sit!

Both were fantastic! It was very flavorful and well spiced, with the perfect amount of salt and aromatics. The chicken is extremely soft, and the noodles are fresh and properly chewy. The Thai iced tea was very sweet even for my taste, but I still enjoyed it and expect it would be more refreshing if the weather wasn't so cold as it is now. The wait time was maybe 15 minutes, which isn't bad at all, and the cashier was very cheerful and pleasant. The food cart is in the back of a fairly vacant lot, so there's not much to comment on when it comes to ambiance. Overall, it's an excellent choice for takeout that I recommend enthusiastically, and I hope I get to try more of their food next time I'm in the area. :-]

While the lamb gyro is no longer a you-had-to-see-it-to-believe-it $5, it's still good value for money (I think it is $8-10 now). The meat is incredibly tender and it's loaded down with mix of grilled, pickled and fresh veggies, and then thoroughly sauced. Plus it's a hefty size; if you're not a big eater you could easily make two meals out of it. Long live the Pharoah!
