Fork and Spoon Food House

I came here a while ago to pick up an order for a college Asian Pacific Islander Student Union event. Walking in, the inside of the restaurant was fairly spacious with lots of seating. The owners were quickly wrapping up the order (I was a bit early). They were both super friendly, fun to talk to, and kind. It was nice to hear about how their business is, and makes me want to support their family-owned business.

We ordered pancit and lumpia and both were delicious. They were a huge hit with lots of students and the portions were a lot more filling than expected. Would love to come back again and try their food in-store.

Great service and very tasty food. We got the lumpia, pancit bihon, adobo and pinakbet. Definitely coming back.

It's taken me a while to write this review as I wanted to take some time to process what occurred during my visit to Fork and Spoon. I have driven by the restaurant for at least a couple of years now. Right off Sandy Blvd. the location is very convenient to get to. Excited to try some Filipino food in town, I finally took my mom here while she was visiting with other family members.

The restaurant is big and spacious inside. They have a corner selling souvenirs from the Philippines, and a pretty good sized menu. Prices are a bit high per entree ($15+). We were seated quickly and our orders taken. All was going well until the food was delivered to our table.

My cousin does not eat meat. At our table, there were two orders of pancit: one with chicken and one with tofu. The server (presume he is husband of the owner at this mom and pop restaurant) that brought our food had put down the plates giving my cousin the chicken and my mom the tofu. He walked away to grab the remaining three entrees and at that time my cousin had put hot sauce and lemon all over her entree. By the time the server got back, my mom had taken a bite of her food and voiced that it was not what she ordered (chicken). The server acted like he didn't understand her and claimed it was chicken. My cousin then inspected her entree and noticed it was chicken.

The server asked them to switch, but my mom does not eat spicy and did not want the lemon squeezed all over her entree. She asked if she could get a new plate with what she had ordered and gave my cousin the tofu dish. The chicken dish was not eaten out of at this point.

Disgruntled, the server goes back to the kitchen and gets another chicken pancit for my mom. We all eat and are merry until the bill comes. They had charged us for the original chicken pancit as well as the new one that was brought out even though the switch was their mistake. Additionally, the entrees are pretty sizable and we needed a few to go boxes.

Heads up, to go boxes are 10 cents each here. So not only do they nickel and dime you pm not finishing your food, but we also had to pay for the to go box for our messed up order. With service like what we received, we unfortunately will not be back

My first time. I was impressed. Very clean, well organized, music playing and of course food. If you haven't gone please go. These people need our business to be there for us.

There aren't many Filipino options in the Portland area so I am happy this spot is around! I came late lunch time on Saturday and the restaurant was almost empty and there was calm instrumental music playing in the background. I tried their combo meal which came with chicken adobo, lumpia, rice, and pancit, as well as tried the sisig fries. The combo meal was great and the adobo was well marinated however the meat was lacking while there was a lot of pancit! The sisig fries were a nice comfort option! I definitely want to come back to try other options here. Their breakfast menu looks so good!

Was in town and my dad was craving Filipino food. This place has always been on our list and I'm glad we were able to try it. We wanted to order the bangsilog and spaghetti but I guess it was so good, it was sold out.
So we opted for the sisig, tocilog and sinigang isda.

Each of the dishes were so good! They provide a good amount of protein and rice for their prices. On average each rice plate is $15-$16 and that's normal across all restaurants from my experience. My boyfriend even tried their ube cheesecake and had to go back to buy my parents' one so they can try. I really enjoyed the sisig, their style sisig includes the Mayo and the creaminess really goes well with the salty/fattiness.

The service was great and the employees all have a great sense of humors. We plan to come back and enjoy dining in next time we're in town.

Me and my husband came here to pick up food after a long road trip and we're excited to try a filipino restaurant in Portland. I'm so sad to say but hindi masarap :(

I've had plenty of authentic Filipino food & the plates I had from this establishment goes down as one of the worst.

I opened the box to the sisig and immediately didn't want to try it. It looks so bland and colorless and tasted just like it looks. The flavor I got was grease/oil. The meat flavorless just leaves your mouth feeling oily. The egg wasn't seasoned at all. The rice was borderline over cooked almost tasted like instant rice vs one in a rice cooker.

The lumpia taste like straight oil as well. Couldn't taste the ingredients inside at all.

The turon tasted just like banana but no caramelization you expect from traditional turon.

I definitely would not recommend or come back and hope no one bases their opinion of Filipino food from this place. I can't even say because it's an Americanized version, the food was just not good at all :(

Our go-to for always friendly service and consistently good Filipino food. Best Kare-kare dish hands down. The owner has the secret sauce!

The Philippines are one of the only countries in SEA that I haven't been to, so I really have nothing to compare this food to.

I really didn't know what to expect, but the food sounded good. We knew that it wouldn't be spicy. Filipino food isn't known for being spicy. I love spicy food. So I didn't want to rate this based on that.

We greeted by the owner, I think, who showed us where to sit. The service was very nice and friendly.

We visited with zero expectations. We ordered an appetizer of sisig fries, tapsilog and pancit bihon. The sisig fries were pretty good. The Mayo made it creamy, but there was a little bit too much of it. Very good flavor on the pork belly though.

The beef dish was good. It had a nice subtle flavor. And it came with a lot of rice. I had a ton of leftovers. My husband enjoyed his chicken noodles too. The flavor was good, and he had just enough to finish without feeling too full.

We were able to add sriracha to it, but it was good without it. It's definitely nice if you prefer non-spicy dishes. And we highly recommend it.
