Absolutely delicious Alberta bowl the to go portion is enough to feed two or three people in my eyes would recommend 10/10
Incredible spot! Local produce, protein options that are actually healthy, super friendly service, fully compostable takeout ware. Oh and did I mention it tastes superb??? I will definitely be making this a regular go to. Fav food cart in Portland!!!
I do not even know where to start. The food was SO freaking good!!! Everything is vegan so that was handy. The staff was super friendly. I love the whole food cart vibe of this area. But the food... It was so damn good! I got the Albina bowl. The leftovers the next day were even better. I highly highly recommend you check them out, you will not regret it. So damn good.
One of my favorite places to go in town! I usually get the Mississippi bowl, it has a great balance of freshness and savoriness. Also has big portion sizes for the price which is always a plus. Definitely stop by!
I love the misconception that Vegans don’t enjoy food like everyone else. In reality, wonderful food carts such as Native Bowl completely breaks barriers with their delicious hearty portions that anyone should be thrilled to try. I promise there is more to eating guilt-free than celery sticks. Particularly - wholesome meals like this.
Delicious vegetarian food! And friendly. I got the chik’n salad, which was very yummy and nice & spicy with the siracha lime buffalo sauce. However the portion was huge — it was as if I filled an entire mixing bowl with food — so I wish they would offer a half portion, or tell people the dish could serve two people or one very hungry person, because I had to toss about half or 2/3 out which hurt my soul haha. Not sure if all the dishes are as hefty as the chik’n salad. But regardless, would recommend!
As many times as I've been here I can't belive I'm just now leaving a review! 5 stars! Delicious food, large portions, very fresh and satiating. Plus, always friendly service.
Stopped by the carts to see what was available. Thankfully everybody was open! Especially thankful for a 100% vegan menu available. I was craving veggies and Native Bowl supplied them! My partner and I got the Broadway Bowl and the Mississippi Bowl. We originally planned to share them, but we could not stop eating our bowls! The sweet bbq sauce in the Broadway Bowl paired so perfectly with the veggie slaw. My only personal criticism, I wish the soy curls were crispier. Otherwise it was a home run! The peanut sauce in the Mississippi Bowl... It was so good! I'm definitely getting this one next time. The tofu was perfect and all the flavors melded together beautifully. I cannot wait to come back and try more of this delicious menu!
