Pok Pok Restaurant

We heard alot of things about pok pok when we were on our road trip in Oregon, so we decided that we needed to give it a try. We were surprised by the environment, it has a very authentic South Asian atmosphere and it looked like it was an extension to a single family home. The wait is LONG, we waited over an hour to be seated and was slightly rushed by our server. The food had a tremendous amount of flavor and was really good, but I don't believe it was worth the wait in my opinion. We ordered the pork belly curry and the sweet chicken wings. Both were outstanding, but we were exhausted from the wait to really enjoy our food. Kinda wish they had a more efficient service.

I don't come down to Portland often. The last time I tried to go to Pok Pok several years ago, it was closed! This time I was successful in eating at Pok Pok, the indoor dining area is small & cozy. They have outside dining area plus take out. Apparently the takeout menu is different from the dining menu. They had a Tom Yum ramen for takeout that was not available for dining in. We had the famous chicken wings, it live up to it's reputation & diners review about it. They weren't kidding- it was OMG! We also ordered the Pok Pok special with half a BBQ chicken with 2 yummy & different dipping sauce served with the papaya salad & glutinous rice in a basket. The papaya salad was yummy... chicken was tender & juicy, their dipping sauces were good. One was spicy & the other was sweet & sour, both were good. Service was good, bring our first time there, the server recommended the Pok Pok special. All in all, a yummy experience! Until next time.

Really authentic flavors, unique Thai Street food that you can't normally get... Don't expect pad Thai or other such items. Their drink menu is also adventurous, thoughtful and creative with fusion elements bringing east and west flavors together. The decor makes you really feel that you are in a small village in Thailand. We also felt that the chicken with the 2 dipping sauces (second item on the menu) was the highlight for food, even better than the wings everyone raves about. Service was also very friendly and helpful. Thanks for a wonderful lunch!

This is possibly one of the best restaurants in Portland. The ambiance and feel is perfect. The waiter was fantastic from making sure we where taken care of to making the sure we where getting the most immersive experiences. Then there is the food! Every dish was cooked to perfection, the flavors where a symphony, each one more amazing than the last. If you are in the area you must try this place out!

This place was just fantastic. Had to wait about 30 minutes for a spot at the bar, but I hung in there with absolutely no regrets. I ordered their Thai wings and the Muslim curry beef noodle soup. Delicious. The wings alone are worth a visit to this spot. To top it all off, the bartenders were knowledgeable, attentive, and overall displayed a great deal of professionalism. As someone just here on vacation, I can easily say this was the highlight of all of my food-related ventures.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon with friends! We waited probably 20 minutes but got a nice table on the second floor! I had heard a lot about this place and seen the lines so I was excited to try it out. Food: DEFINITELY get the soy wings if you come, they were really tasty and had a unique flavor and I really really do recommend getting them. We also got the khao neu which had a bit too much coconut milk we felt but was still good. I would also recommend the coconut ice cream sandwich! It’s a real sandwich with bread too! Service: The people seemed a bit impatient with us but we got our food fast! Ambiance: This place is super casual! Definitely would want to come back and get the wings again!

Really delicious and authentic, thai and vietnamese food! Love the spicy, bold flavors and inventive combinations! The little mustard leaves on ice are a lifesaver for when the spice starts to get intense and highly appreciated. It's a bit expensive and portions are a touch small, but the quality of the food is excellent all the same 😁

First tried the fish sauce wings in Pok Pok NY, so I couldn't wait to have them at the OG establishment. We ordered the beef curry noodles, vego coconut curry noodles, and crispy egg salad as well - nothing disappointed! Great Northern Thai flavours, caters well to vegetarians, and 2 satisfyingly full customers.

LOVE this place. Of course, the spicy wings are amazing. Crisp. Spicy. Sweet. And a touch of funk from the fish sauce. But because people talk about the wings so much, it's hard to know how good the rest of the menu is. The eggplant was subtly smoky with a little bit of acid (and more fish sauce), and came together in way that was reminiscent of my childhood (I'm Filipino). The curry was powerfully flavorful without being overwhelming. Just rich, saucy, and meaty. Perfect with a bowl of hot white rice. Grab a beer and have a perfect afternoon.
