Reviews for Mama Bird in Portland, OR
I wish I could give this place 6 stars. Smooth operation, nice drink selection, and of course the sides! The sides and sauces... alone could float this place even if the chicken was trash, but the chicken is STILL the star. Its fantastic. This is 100% whereyou want to go tonight. Oh and outdoor seating ???? Read more
This place is great. The sauces are really good but it’s almost like you don’t want to use them because the chicken by... itself is delicious. The sides are great as well. I really enjoyed this place. Read more
Wow! The grilled chicken is so juicy and the skin was so flavorful and crispy?? The Aji Verde sauce paired perfectly with it but... I didn't quite like the Garlic Miso sauce. Highly recommend! Read more
Delicious, beautiful, great value! The manner in which Mama Bird elevates a protein as simple as chicken is absolutely... stunning!!! The chef’s plate pictured was only $17 and was a delicious variety of flavor and texture. I’d never had grilledwatermelon before and the way it was prepared infused a smokiness cut with a slight acidity from their prep process. If you’reinto spicy, don’t sleep on their house-made pineapple habañero sauce! They let it age through fermentation that just reallybrings out the heat and the sweet. The indoor layout was really neat. I love the open kitchen right in the middle of the diningroom. It makes for such an inviting smell as you walk in. I’ve also never seen such a calm, cool, and collected kitchen staff!They hummed along like a well oiled machine. Definitely recommend this place! I plan to bring out of town friends here whenthey visit! Read more
I was really impressed with the savory to sweet ratio. There were plenty of options for everyone. I went solo and enjoyed that... its counter service. The salmon was incredibly tasty. Read more
Ordered takeout from here and really enjoyed it. The food travels pretty well. Salad was beautiful and tasty. Chicken was cooked... well and the sauces were great. You get four with a whole bird. I enjoyed the curry and aji verde. I’d like to try the ones wedidn’t get. Will order from here again. Read more
Literally the best food we had in Portland. Between the bird and the sides, everything melted in your mouth. Also has a super... cute vibe with beautiful large windows. I will absolutely be back and bring everyone who comes into town to visit! Read more
Our food was awesome, the sauces here are amazing. There are lots of sauce options, there's definitely something for everyone.... When you walk in, you place your order at the counter right away, we sat on the outdoor patio which is so cute. Read more
