Reviews for Nong's Khao Man Gai in Portland, OR
Considering how I don't like boiled chicken or ginger, this place was actually really good. The chicken itself was moist; the... sauce had hints of ginger that complimented the chicken well and honestly was the star of the show. Everything together wassuper simple and delicious. Note: DONT get the Thai tea just spend and extra dollar for the float! The soft serve ice cream wascoconut flavored AND THE BOMB DOT COM Read more
We got the large khao man gai and Khao Kha Muu (pork on rice). It was a food cart style and the menu was limited. I read many... reviews thinking it will be super flavourful and amazing. But it was underwhelming, at least I asked for dark meat so it wasn?tso dry. The kids plate was chicken breast and came with the spicy sauce. Without the sauce the dish is kind of bland. The Thaitea was delicious though. Read more
This place was an ?instant hit? with us. The thai chicken and rice met expectations (we even bought some bottles of their... special sauce to-go). The other dishes were also very delicious and can have no problem standing on their own. Read more
Been to Nong's in the past and dropped by here after returning from a visit to Silver Falls. You order at the front counter and... they have plenty of outdoor seating. Can't come here without trying the large chicken rice - which is always good. We alsotried the fried chicken skins, pickles, and chicken livers. Pickles and chicken skin were good (wish there were more chickenskins in the order) but the chicken livers were just ok. Read more
A little disappointed regarding to the food. The chicken was very dry and the sauce was a little spicy which it wasn?t on the... menu. But excellent customer service and cute decorations in store. They have hot tea for free as well. If you do want to try itout, street parking is $2/hr, the parking lots next to the restaurant is $6/hr. Don?t recommend this location. Read more
Nice little fast food place. Their pork rice better than chicken rice but you know, chicken rice still great than... average. Chicken rice have a small bowl of soup. Don?t order another one! And big bowl soup can share with 2 ppl! It?s a niceplace if you are around this area and for a quick pick up. :) Read more
I added Nong's to my list of places to check out while visiting Portland because 1. I saw it on multiple travel sites 2. My... sister had tried it a few years back and said it was really good. We popped in on a Saturday at around 3 pm and it was stillpretty packed at that time, especially for a non-peak lunch hour. We ordered the original Khao Man Gai (regular size) to sharebetween me and my husband. It comes wrapped in a paper with size of broth and their dipping sauce. It was pretty good,especially the sauce but was it $13 good? That I don't know. It's also something you need to eat right away because it comes outpiping hot. If you eat it later, the steam would probably overcook the chicken. Glad I got the chance to try it but also gladwe only got one order. Read more
My fav lunch spot. I usually order the bigger plate with liver. The ginger sauce with ground chili is just perfect. $17 for a... nice and healthy meal. Parking is on the street and it?s easy to find Read more
