Danh's Kitchen — Restaurant in Portland

Best Vietnamese food I’ve had since I lived in Little Saigon 10 years ago. We ordered the com tam suon nuong (broken rice and pork chop plate) and ca kho mang (braised fish with bamboo). Everything was incredible, reminded me of my grandma’s cooking. Portions were also very generous!

Com suon - meat was tender, sweet, and well seasoned. Pickles were delicious. Nuoc mam (fish sauce) had a sweet garlicky flavor I’ve never tasted before in nuoc mam. I want that nuoc mam recipe!!!

Ca kho - well seasoned, went so amazingly with the bamboo shoots. The sauce it was braised in was so punchy and tasty. They added a ton of green onions on top, exactly the way I like it. And I added some of the fish sauce from the pork chop plate, so so good!

Extra points for service because I’m a Vietnamese person who speaks super broken Vietnamese but the cashier didn’t shame me like some places do. They were very nice, and even though there was a little bit of a language barrier we worked out my order just fine. The only slight negative I have to say about this place is the shop is kind of hot and stuffy. But that’s not much of a bother since it’s a to-go place only.

My only regret is that I’ve been living in the Portland area for almost two years and only just discovered this place! Will be...

Very authentic Vietnamese food. This is my second time visiting this place and the food are so delicious. I got special broken rice dish, beef offal stew with stir-fried ramen noodle, and roasted sweet snail with tamarind.

Broken rice dish included pork chop, shredded pork skin, egg meatloaf, pickled daikon and carrot, slices of tomato and cucumber and only costed $15. The beef offal stew was good but somehow it little lacked flavors of five spices. The curry taste was little stronger than I expected. Roasted sweet snail with tamarind was my favorite. It had been a long time since I had snails. The snails were huge and tamarind sauce complemented the dish a lot. Every dish came with their own sauce and the packing was very careful. I also love their desserts.

The restaurant is mostly togo and the parking is little tricky. The owner is very friendly and the food usually come out fast....

The food is Phenomenal (Taste the LOVE & Care put into this food! ) The Service is exactly what you should expect at a restaurant like this and I think better service than most in Portland in 2025. The atmosphere is also what I expect for now. The Price is unbeatable for what you get. This place is going to be #1 for it's category of food. Danh's will only be going up in the world with the High quality and consistency of this amazing food. Thank you Danh's for the Life's work and Love put into the food I truly appreciate the experience and will be there at least once every time I'm in Portland. Any Chef in Portland would be proud to serve this food. P.S. Anyone that puts less than 5 stars for the food is not worthy of reading...
