We stopped here a couple times on our recent trip to the area. The Zesti Food Carts area is a great…read moreidea and very well done in a lovely space. There is plenty of parking and you have so many choices. It's not always easy to get everyone to agree on what they want and they have many food carts and drink options to choose from. There are also a variety of seating options. It was quite warm when I was there and more shaded areas would have been nice. The bathrooms are also in great need of improvement. I would still recommend a stop here, especially to relax and catch up with friends or if you want to go out but you're not sure what you want or just feel like keeping your options open.

Overall a good experience! It was a little odd that we were there before 8 pm on a Saturday and so…read moremany carts were closed or getting ready to close up. Everyone we spoke with was friendly and I loved how clean and pretty the grounds are with lots of vegetation, games, ample seating options, and good lighting! We tried food from the Turkish and Mexican trucks, and I forgot to get food photos. The Turkish truck was our least favorite, the kofta had pink in the middle, the tzatziki could have used more garlic, and the hummus was a very thin consistency. Overall not an ideal experience but the rice was delicious, the pita was possibly the best pita I've ever had, and the owners/workers were incredibly kind. The Mexican truck was better, but there were a couple mix ups with our food. The owner/server working that truck was kind, but did not speak/understand English well, which led to some mixups. I have no problem with this, it's not meant to be derogatory in any way, it just caused some difficulty with ordering / making medications to our order (and unfortunately we're not fluent in Spanish, so we couldn't make up the middle ground in the communication issues). Our enchiladas were ordered with verde sauce, came out with red sauce and the burrito we ordered and added beans to the inside did not have beans on the inside; additionally, we almost didn't get our drink until we asked for it. They definitely seem to be a work in progress still and the only restrooms are upgraded outdoor porta-potty's (but think elevated) but don't seem to be accessible as there's a step up. I can appreciate the vision and we'll definitely be back as they continue to upgrade. The only other thing I've seen complaints about is parking; there was no event that night at any of the venues, so we had ample parking, and I could see several parking options as well as lots of street parking in the surrounding areas. This must be something they've improved upon, but it had better parking than almost any other pods in Beaverton or Portland.

We walked in here on a whim and that was the best decision we made this morning!…read more We got two Vietnamese coffees (husband had to get another after seeing mine), beef stew and the vegan wontons with bok choy and pumpkin noodles. The noodles were sumptuous and quite unlike I had ever tasted before. The veggie wontons I believe are a family recipe and whoever says vegetarian food can't be good, should eat these wontons. The noodles with a bit of wonton and the bok choy all coated in delicious chili oil was the perfect bite that I'll savor and think about for a long time. The husband's beef stew was beautifully crafted with a depth of flavor and tender pieces of meat and carrots. With that came the best possible baguette to sop up all that wonderful stew. Dustin and Yen (the couple that runs the place) are warm, inviting and enterprising people. Eating here seems like eating in their home where every item is made with the utmost love and attention. They have an expansive and creative drink menu as well which have nonalcoholic options. The menu changes every day which is fun and something to look forward to each visit. Needless to say we will be back again!! If you're in the area pop on by and support this delicious local and authentic place.
