    Not my burger but had to show the art.
    Nate M.

    I've never had a burger where I saw the sauce added like cake decorating. Or thought pleasure and burger could be said back to back and compliment each other. I was a leery looking in the window because it was a little dark but all was good. I got the BBQ burger which had jalapeños on it; new for me. It was a good BBQ burger. The jalapeños gave it an extra kick. Oh, and the burgers are smash burgers. I thought there would be a lot of meat but they're well wrapped as to not make a mess. We also got an order of fries each, small size and that was just right. I didn't have any nuggets but my daughter said they were good. I know it's a burger joint but don't hide the nuggets. Kids dig em! The staff was friendly and took pride in their work and their restaurant. I would go back again. Oh, did I mention the Hot Wheels on the wall added a cool touch?

    This place is really good, was hesitant on trying a new place bc I was so hungry but so glad I tried it! Portion sizes are small for the price which sucks. This is a large size fry for two people which is not enough. Service is as really good with friendly people

    Ooof. This was the most amazing burger. I had the western because I wanted an onion ring. The best cooked smash patties, absolute top notch. I got the fries as well and they were crispy and soft on the inside. Small spot, very clean and efficient. Clean bathroom which was great for the kiddo to wash hands.

    After a long day of walking in the sun, my group and I needed something salty but not too filling. We decided on this place and we ate it so fast, it must've been a record. Within my group the reviews come in at a total of 8.5/10. the smashed burgers were good, just lacked that oomph. Similar to in-and-out burgers but their smash sauce is not as good as the in-and-out burger sauce. ( Sometimes the condiments really bring it all together) The fries were crispy and soft in the inside, but I wouldn't recommend the parm ones. It was just too much goin on, overpowered the actual fry. The workers were kind and asked us how we liked it as we were leaving ( which is sweet to me). For the price, I personally would come back for a salty treat.

    Needed a quick bite before a comedy show downtown. A 'hole in the wall', not much seating, but they definitely make it work. Pretty decent food too. While prices are decent for downtown, it does add up quick. Everything is al la cart. We did the bbq bacon burger, pb burger, parm chicken nuggets, and parm fries. Everything was really good. Good service too - cool to see them being able to make our food. Near pioneer square; parking can be difficult, but max is just a couple blocks away.

    Great burger joint tried the peanut butter, pickled bacon, burger, and thought that was a great tasting burger and and their version of killer burgers of course but I think that burger's been around before those places but who would know I don't... Lol. Anyways, the other burgers were great too, and the staff was really nice and the fries with the Parmesan on it delicious. I highly recommend coming here and trying some of the food out. I would like to try more of it out next time I come with my buddy.

    Peanut Butter Bacon.

    Burger was a Excellent- it sure if better with less or without pickles as was 5. Jr smash- kids ate quickly without hesitation. Dropped 1 star for sanitation: grill cook kept touching the ready to eat buns with his bare hand and using the same bare hand to push the grilled patty onto the bun from the taping knife/spatula.

    Pleasure Burger....maybe the crispiest smash edges around!
    Kim R.

    It's been a while since we've visited...actually didn't know they had a new location. Happy to find them again! Still just as good as I remember. Fabulous crispy edges, tasty fries, a unique smash sauce, and great customer service. A proper smash experience!

    Atmosphere: Casual quick burger spot. Food: Did not like the BBQ burger at all. The Pleasure Burger was a decent smash burger. Not the best burger place I've had but not the worst. Price: Prices are reasonable Service: Walk up to the counter to order. Ordered to go. Food took a surprisingly long time even though it didn't seem that busy. Guys that worked there were friendly though. Parking: Street parking. Parking is difficult in this area.

    Returned to claim our voucher for 2 free burgers and large fries, and had another amazing experience. The burger quality is consistently excellent, with flavorful meat and so much craggily edges. Fries are well salted. Service was fast and friendly. Bathroom is clean. We even got Nico's ice cream to top off the meal. Left with happy bellies.

    Great burger me and my husband tried it for the first time on our vacation from California to Portland today. Found it while just walking had no idea how lucky we were to stumble on this. We had the bbq bacon jalepono burger and damn we snarfed our burgers down. Am so sad there isn't any in California :(

    Original Smash Burger
    Gabe P.

    Pleasure burger? Yes I was please. I get pleasure from most burgers. This one? Quite a lot. I was impressed. The burger was legit smashed correctly, the bun was proper. The prices weren't outrageous (though not cheap). This place is legit. The original can go toe to toe with most smash burgers in the city, if not all. The peanut butter, bacon? Pickle is a knock off of killer burgers. It wasn't done as well but it was close. The fries had a lot to be desired. The aioli not aioli-ey enough for me. Overall all very good. The place is sleek inside and in a convenient place downtown. Pleasure burger pleased me. (4.7 Stars)

    Guy with gloves
    Terrence M.

    Order: coke, lg salted waffle fry, western BBQ B Pros: the service was great and the location seems pretty good. That sauce they serve with the frys is hella good!! Side note: The food was just okay in my opinion. I really dont get the hype of thin patties/smash burgers. They were not filling. The cost was astronomical $20 in comparison to another burger place I go to that has really good and filling burgers for a dollar cheaper. Cons: so i sat at the counter and I watched the workers make the burgers. The guy on the grill used no gloves while on grill but then would drop the burger patties off for the Sandwich to be made often touching the patties with his bare hands and then touching the ingredients with no gloves. The guy who was next to him making the burgers to specification had on gloves so it was interesting to see both digging in the produce and making burgers with or without gloves.

    There are some on the Google Maps page. Other than that, I don't think there's much. Reference below.…

Between the genuinely friendly hospitality and the flavor combinations, this spot hits it out of the park and is a must for sandwich lovers. Griddled Mortadella (5/5): An incredibly delicious sandwich that perfectly balances rich, salty, and savory flavors. It comes loaded with a generous portion of grilled mortadella and melted provolone cheese, perfectly moistened with a tangy mustard aioli. The fresh lettuce and bell peppers added a satisfying crunch to every bite. Chefwich - K-Town Steak Sandwich (5/5): A limited-time creation packed into a banh mi roll. It had a generous portion of perfectly tender and sweet bulgogi steak that pairs with their melted jack cheese. The gochujang mayo sauce had a subtle and sweet heat, while the fresh kimchi added crunch and slight acidity to balance the rich meat. Elote Tater Tots (5/5): Definitely a creative side dish. The tots were perfectly fried and topped elote style with cotija cheese, pairing well with the smoky chipotle mayo on the side. Logistics Tip: Street parking is surprisingly easy to find in the surrounding area, even on a busy weekend evening. The restaurant has a spacious layout with plenty of seating options both inside and outside. If you're a first-timer, don't hesitate to ask the staff for suggestions, as they're exceptionally warm, welcoming, and passionate about the menu.

I've been a…read morebackyard pitmaster for a long time, have multiple BBQ pits in the backyard, and while I'm not planning on headed to the World Championships in Memphis anytime soon; I'm pretty good. So, when I walk into a BBQ joint I usually can just kind of feel how it is going to go. Frankly, I wasn't too impressed on my visit to Lawless when I walked in the door. That feeling only lasted until my food arrived. Now when I walk in, I feel so foolish for feeling that way that first time. I have tried about everything, and I could run off a list of the things you should try. But that would be my list, not yours. Everyone likes something different. What I can tell you is what they do better than any other BBQ joint I have been to in the Portland Metroplex. First is the brisket burnt ends; Lawless knows how to make a burnt end that is tender with a flavor that will keep you coming back often. Second is their chicken wings. I don't know where their pitmaster finds these prehistorically large wings from, but they are amazing and juicy. If you are a fan of lemon-pepper I highly suggest that rub, but none of them are bad. Third is the brisket. Worthy of central Texas BBQ praise. Everything else is above average, the ribs, pulled pork and sides are all amazing. You cannot go wrong at Lawless. And if I small voice says this might not be a great place when you walk in the for the first time; tell it to mind its own business and order the burnt ends and wings.

    Lawless BBQ, a great stop!…read more There's a bunch of places to choose from in Portland for your next bbq trip. Lawless was an amazing bbq place that I really recommend. I got the Brisket, Burnt Ends, Potato Salad, and Mac N Cheese. Service was awesome, with plenty of seating around. The brisket was nice and tender and had great flavor, and the burnt ends had this glaze that paired with the meat really well! The sides were just ok in my opinion, as I would like them to be a little more flavorful. But not bad by any means. I didn't get a picture but the Banana Pudding was phenomenal. One of the best banana puddings I've ever had! I still talk about it to my friends. Overall I really think you should give Lawless a try, great bbq and great people.
