The Best Salad Restaurants in Portland, Oregon - Eater Portland
"Gabriel Pascuzzi, the owner of grilled chicken spot Mama Bird, opened this bowl restaurant in Buckman in 2021, after starting the business as a pandemic pop-up. All of the bowls are available as salads with a mixed green base, but the bowl toppings themselves are hearty and interesting enough to make any salad a full-on meal: In the Smokey Roots, a blend of smoked beets, charred onion, sautéed kale, and roasted carrots are almost meaty, especially with the added touch of garlic sumac yogurt. For something a touch lighter, the Painted Hills uses a bright collection of charred broccoli and pineapple with fresh grapefruit, jicama, and avocado, all dressed in a jalapeno cilantro vin. The restaurant also offers add-ons like Ota tofu and poached chicken breast." - Janey Wong
