Reviews for FOMO Chicken in Portland, OR
If you are Asian looking for some authentic Koran fired chicken just like what you see in Korea drama, this is not the right... place for you. The box meal is more like Chinese General Tsao chicken style fried chicken with sauce sitting on top of bed ofrice. The portion is small for its price. The spicy chicken is very sweet and the sweet chicken is just sweeter. The pickleradish is also full of sugar. We drove by Portland looking forward sir something authentic. This is a disappointment.

Amazing customer service! My bf dropped the entire box of fried pickles, but the workers were kind enough to cook something new... for us. We can't thank them enough for their kindness. Besides! Their chicken was great! We ordered half and half (spicy andsweet). We preferred the sweet one because we can't get something like this here in the states. It reminds us of the chicken wehard do have in Korea! The wings had so much meat compared to our usual spot, and they were very crispy too. They don't selldrinks, but you can get the beer from the mini-open bar right across. Definitely going back there soon! Read more
I have been hunting around for restaurants that serve dedicated Gluten-Free fried chicken for a long time in the Portland area... and I finally found a place that does the job spectacularly! I ordered the southwestern style fried chicken with corn andcoleslaw and every bite was more savory than I could have imagined. There are not many places like this and decently cheap too!Not forgetting to mention the friendly staff as well. Read more
Just stopped here after a very disappointing visit to Fire On The Mountain last night. Unfulfilled, I needed to find some wing... redemption in the area. I gotta say these wings were succulent, meaty AF, and on point! They accidentally mixed up on one of myorders, but fixed it within 5 min, gave me an extra order of wings, and when I offered to pay extra for it they said it was onthe house! The Spicy Korean and Garlic Soy wings were delicious, I'll be back for more.. Please stop by and support thisbusiness, they'll treat you right!???????? Read more
It is possible to create a symphony of joyous notices from one?s mouth while simultaneously devouring the most tantalizing... chicken wings in Portland. FOMO Chicken is absolutely exquisite. The wings are perfectly sized and full of delicious meat. One1lb order was the perfect portion for me and my date along with a side of rice. Lest I forget the tantalizing pickled radishesand the light and tangy coleslaw sides. The staff is delightful, which makes this a must visit in Portland. There is a beer cartin the same lot for the perfect meal. Read more
I wish I could rate 3.5 stars - I decided to try FOMO since my first choice in the little cart area was temp closed. I liked... that this little food cart alcove has quite a bit of cover from rain - as the day I visited it was raining quite heavily. Thebeer bus also seems to manage the fire pit which was a lovely charm - thank you beer bus worker for maintaining the firepit! Anywho, FOMO's food was just meh for me. I felt like I didn't get a lot of chicken for $15 & got substantially more justplain ol' white rice. It normally comes with mayo-based cole slaw but they were willing to substitute for me, which was nice ofthem, so I tried the corn. They also had, in my opinion, almost too sweet tasting pickled radish as a side as well. The glaze- Sweet Garlic was very unimpressive. I tasted just like a sweet soy garlic & there wasn't much of it applied to thechicken/surrounding rice. I think what would've helped is to ask customers/offer them the option of more sauce on the side. Ididn't feel like I got much value out of my meal & they're trying to offer more sustainable to-go utensils n' such, but the box(as far as I know) isn't recyclable & I'm not sure if the plastic that the radish side comes in can be recycled or noteither. The food cart area does contain porta-potties with a little hand washing station, so I think that the cart area isworth visiting, but if there's other options open, I'll try another cart before going to FOMO again.

during a quick visit to portland this was definitely the highlight of the food we got! it's located in a lovely area with enough... room to sit down for a while and is surrounded by other food trucks! I absolutely loved the food and the service here, the staffwere all super friendly! I got a spicy korean chicken box, and a sweet garlic chicken sandwich and both were amazing! Read more
I ordered some chicken strips and corn. The chicken was sub-rate and inedible. Likely, twice fried. Was supposed to be Southern... but hard dark spots like it contained remnants of one of the Korean flavors. The corn consisted of extremely old kernels mixedwith slightly less old kernels. Nothing like the others photos. The corn was drenched in salt and pepper and water; as if theyhad scraped last week?s corn into the corn from two days ago - and then decided to serve it to me today. The person I spoke towas friendly - if that?s all you care about. I hate 1 piece of the chicken and some of the corn and my stomach is cramping.Serving old food is unacceptable. They should be shut down. Read more
