Mee Gin Soul Kitchen - Portland

The food was incredible! The location is quite unassuming, but it's definitely worth a visit. Rating: 4 out of 5.

The best fried rice I've ever tasted! I enjoy a lot of Thai cuisine, and this restaurant stands out. I visited twice this week, and both times, the front-of-house operations were managed solely by one woman who did an outstanding job. I was thoroughly impressed with everything!

First off, the bathroom was in a shocking state. I was appalled at how dirty it was; I couldn’t believe the staff actually used it. The walls were grimy, and I was hesitant to touch anything inside. It was clear that cleanliness wasn’t a priority. As for the food, I had high expectations for what appeared to be a traditional Thai restaurant. We ordered tea, but it turned out to just be a tea bag—huge letdown. The food was also a disappointment. We were so hungry that we ate simply to fill our stomachs. We ordered the whole fish, which the server claimed was snapper, but it didn’t taste fresh at all. The worst part was the soup; it was completely bland and lacked any vegetables. I had to specifically ask for salt and pepper just to add some flavor. The staff was okay, but overall, this experience was such a letdown that I’ve never before left food behind at a restaurant. We ended up leaving most of our meal untouched.

Amazing service. Excellent flavors. Perfect textures.

Stop looking, you’ve found it. This is the spot. Try the soups, get the curries. When I tried the broth for the first time I almost fell out of my seat. Amazing high quality food!
