    That was a lovely meal. The potatoes and salad were unlike other dishes I've had. I enjoyed the noodles with mushrooms too. Delish!

    Great Burmese food in the breathe building off Hawthorne. Perfect place for a snack / meal after yoga. All the dishes I've had here a good. Prices reasonable and spice level is just right. They are moving a few blocks east in Mar 2026

    Total destruction to your mind

    Great food and even better service! We stopped in for dinner and were promptly seated, with a quick note to order at the counter. The cocktails are pre-batched, but don't let that fool you because they were all superb. The bartender did an excellent job bringing out the spices and nuanced flavors in each drink. For food, we ordered: Laphet/ Tea Leaf Salad kyet thar kyaw /Chicken and Rice Khao pyane sane All dishes were flavorful and beautifully balanced. What really stood out, though, was the exceptional service. The staff were genuinely kind and took the time to chat with us about the drinks ,they could tell how much we were enjoying them! A wonderful spot all around with great food, thoughtful drinks, and warm, engaging service. Highly recommend!

    Giant dumpling, tea salad
    Stephen K.

    Rangoon Bistro is a very good and very charming local spot. VERY unique menu (be sure to get the giant dumpling), and expertly-cooked food. Portion sizes are generous, and perfect for sharing. The fried chicken was a particular standout...VERY crispy and very well-prepared. Parking is street-only, and the area is VERY busy, so be prepared to park a few blocks (or more) away. I highly recommend stopping in for some outstanding food (and a restroom in the adjoining yoga studio...quaint).

    Beef Curry
    Ploy N.

    A laid back Burmese spot with delicious salads! The texture and flavor combos in both the Tea Leaf and Ginger Salads were very nice. Easily my favorite dishes of the night. The Beef Curry and Fried Chicken were decent. Found the meat to be a tad dry but flavors were good and really enjoyed the coconut rice. Mushroom Noodles were tasty too. Noodles were well-cooked. Staffs were friendly and helpful with peanut allergies. It's a fun and unique meal but I'm not rushing to go back.

    beef and potato curry

    We got the tea leaf salad, ginger salad, fried chicken, mushroom noodles, and the beef and potato curry. The salads were absolutely delicious and I would highly recommend - the mixture of textures were delightful. The mushroom noodles were the definite standout though! I was disappointed by the beef and potato curry- the beef seems quite dry and the dish was nothing special but everything else was a hit! The portion sizes were also quite generous.

    I'm a sucker for good Burmese food. I always must have my fix when visiting Portland! We stopped by here after hanging around Mt. Tabor since it was conveniently nearby. We got tea leaf salad, fried potatoes, 3 pc chicken with coconut rice, and beef curry. Everything was DELICIOUS, we over-ordered, but no regrets at all. Service was good. Great inside decor, however the bathroom was also shared with a gym locker room, so not the most convenient, but fine nevertheless. Would come back if I'm in the area!

    Giant dumpling!
    Leif B.

    Fantastic! This is the second time I have been, and I was blown away by the food. It's so good and definitely a little different from your average restaurant. Went for a work dinner, we ended up getting some of everything, and I loved it all. Order at counter and they bring it out to your table, super fast service for a bigger group (7) which was great!

    Pork and noodles
    Joy S.

    This small restaurant had tables and counters set up for customers and it was busy. They were very efficient in taking orders at the counter and bringing the food out as it's ready. We ordered a few different things to share with our group. A large dumpling, a spicy carrot salad, two orders of fried chicken with coconut rice, and a pork noodle dish. Plenty of food and it was all delicious.

    Good atmosphere and nice staff. We got the giant dumpling and potatoes for appetizers. The dumpling was a little heavy on the vinegar but the seasoning on the potatoes were amazing! For entree we got the ribs, pork noodles, and fried chicken. Good flavors and portions. Overall: 7/10, Get the potatoes.

    Lahpet Salad
    Rita S.

    My curious friend and I decided to try Rangoon Bistro for Burmese food, and we were not disappointed! You order inside at the counter, choose a table inside or outside on the patio, then a server will bring your food and clean your table afterwards. The person who took our order was friendly and offered helpful suggestions. We shared the Lahpet Salad which had a unique combination of green tea leaves, shredded cabbage, crunchy peanuts, and garlic and fish oil. I also ordered the Shan Khao Swe - rice noodles, pork, mustard greens and peanuts, and a large dumpling which was indeed, gigantic! We enjoyed our meals and liked the interesting flavors and added crunch from the peanuts. Definitely check this place out!

    While traveling, I stumbled upon Rangoon Bistro on a mission to find some good vegan food. Their Mushroom Mala Ci Chet ($18) was bursting with rich, spicy, earthy flavors that made each bite more satisfying than the last. I left feeling both full and incredibly satisfied with the dish. We were a large group, and I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly our dishes were served, piping hot and beautifully presented. The space itself is spacious and warmly inviting, perfect for settling in with friends or family and truly enjoying the meal. Rangoon Bistro is a vibrant, affordable gem that's sure to make any vegan (or non-vegan) food lover's heart happy. An absolute must-visit if you're craving bold flavors and a memorable dining experience.

    Fried 1/2 Chicken
    Natasha K.

    Uh wow! What an amazing meal! We ordered the special crispy potatoes and the fried chicken. The crispy potatoes were incredible! Crispy on the outside but the inside just melted in your mouth. I've never had anything like it! The fried chicken was juicy and so flavorful. The coconut rice that came with it was also a great touch as the sweetness balanced out the salt in the chicken. Very cute and small place with a chefs table so we got to watch the chef cook. Overall, an excellent meal and I already can't wait to come back!

    Dumpling was very good but ribs, fried chicken, and carrot salad were all mediocre at best.

    We really enjoy this restaurant in the Pearl District. We regularly stop in after a morning visit…read moreto Powell's. They are a brewery pub and have the fare that matches. Their tap list is extensive but also includes non-standard options. We love to see non-alcoholic beers as well as gluten free beer, cider, cocktails, and other libations. The food menu is great too. There are several items that either come gluten free or can be modified to be. The servers are knowledgeable about the ingredients of the menu items and I feel confident and safe eating here when gluten free is a need for me. They can get pretty crowded, but have several seating options. It was nice out today so outdoor seating was even possible, though it looked like there was a wait. There are tvs in several spots that showcase local sports when possible. There is a kids area and you can sit close while the kids play. Everyone we come in contact with here from servers to hosts are super friendly and welcoming. The food is pretty good. This time around, we shared the garlic Parmesan fries and the chicken wings (buffalo and honey gojuchang sauces). The wings were smoked and moist with good flavor. The fries were alright. More of the aioli would have helped so maybe request extra sauce or get some on the side. The dessert menu has some non-traditional offerings. The highlight for me was the cheesecake. I was assured by a server one time that the chef creates a gluten free cheesecake that rotates on the seasonal dessert menu. The current offering is tiramisu. The coffee chocolate sauce is good and I appreciated the bonus chocolate chip biscotti. The actual cheesecake is decent and I would be excited to try other flavors in the future.

We recently took a staycation in downtown Portland and decided to have brunch there. At 1030 on a Saturday morning, we were still able to get a table. It was crowded, but the noise level was do-able. Service was excellent, very friendly and efficient. All of the waitstaff seemed very relaxed, which I thought was great. They bring beignets to every table as a starter. They are light, airy and not too sweet. For breakfast, I had the Ed's scramble, which had a ton of veggies in it, but also cheese. It was served with a ranchero sauce and sour cream. This was very, very good. My husband had the chili and cheese omelet, he said it was great and it looked really good. This is an excellent dining spot that has been in Portland for years. I can see why.

After we ordered, I went to the bathroom and the food was already out when I came back to the table. I ordered a salmon benedict, so it did not seem like it was "made to order." The salmon benedict, although highly recommended by the waitress, was extremely fishy, even though the "hollandaise sauce" (which had no depth of flavor, and was just thick) covered the entirety of the egg, salmon, and english muffin. It came with cheesy hash browns which again had no depth of flavor. Cheese makes anything tasty but it was just too much. The service, while friendly, was not attentive. We were unsure who our server was and I had to flag down the server for the bill and then to take my card 10 minutes later.
