Friendship Kitchen NW Thurman

I have been searching high and low for good laksa in the Portland area. I am picky about this particular soup. The options are limited and I have not been impressed with what I’ve found - until today. Friendship Kitchen absolutely nailed it. Delicious, bursting with flavor, just the right amount of funky sweet/spicy/umami. Great, welcoming service too. I’ll be returning!

We just happened upon this place after hiking Leif Erikson trail. I am so glad we did. Its off the main streets of NW 21 and 23 in a quaint neighborhood. You must try this it will be your next go to!!

This was from two days ago because I accidentally posted this to the other location's page. Delivery order and I'm beyond impressed. Haven't tried the wonton noodle soup yet but the pho and salad with chicken were perfectly cooked, presented impeccably, and with fresh produce. Pho broth was flavorful and rich. Most broths just taste like five-spice but this was balanced perfectly. The chicken on the salad was cooked to juicy charred perfection with super crisp veg. My only complaint so far was the dressing tasted like something from a jar or a dipping sauce made for something else that didn't work as a salad dressing. I'm looking forward to the wonton noodle soup that I added fish balls to! I had the wonton soup and it was also delicious. The broth was delicious and I loved that the char siu was more savory and not cloyingly sweet like most. The complementary sauces and veg were perfect for both the pho and wonton noodle soup. I'm actually doing another order right now.

I found this place on an Eater list, “The Hottest New Restaurants in Portland, March 2024”. Everything we ordered from the Egg rolls, Shaken Beef to the Singapore Chicken Rice were so good! I would definitely come back. I also ordered a passionfruit fizz which was refreshing. The vibe was cute, small but didn’t feel cramped. It would be a great place for a nice little dinner date.

Formerly Alouette, FK NW is located in the same space and is the second iteration of Friendship Kitchen & the menu features dishes I would personally eat on a regular basis. The cuisine is Vietnamese & Singaporean inspired, a cross between owners & partners Trang Nguyen's & Wei-En Tan's heritages. Mama's Laksa was my fave! It's a coconut milk based curry noodle soup with shrimp, tofu, soft-boiled egg, bean sprouts, fishballs, rice noodles & a slick of chile oil floating on top. It's a robust in flavor - savory with a touch of sweet, creamy, and seafood forward. Very comforting & perfect on a rainy day and came out piping hot. My husband also really liked the Shaken Beef which had good flavor. The Crazy Rich Asians cocktail is almost too pretty to drink with gorgeous edible glitter floating throughout the glass. The service was also good. The server and bartender were both very nice and down to earth. I will definitely come back to try more dishes!

There's not a lot of places in Portland that serves Singaporean food so I had to come check this place out! Food: Singapore Satay - The chicken was super juicy and had a great lemongrass flavor. Mama's Laksa - If this was the only dish I got, I would've finished this dish to the last drop. This dish was so warm, inviting, and flavorful. I also liked the Vietnamese herbs that was on top. Nasi Lemak - The fried anchovies with peanuts changed my life. Service: The staff and the owners were friendly and inviting from when we walked in to when we left. They would check up on us often and make sure we were taken care of.

Took the family and mom here for Mothers Day. The Chili crab was soooo DELICIOUS! I wasn’t sure because of the price but we had enough people we’d split it and it was totally yummy and worth it. Great flavor of the crab, sweet and firm. Really saucy covering on crab, they offer you bids and gloves. Noodles under the crab was also really good. I’ve loved every dish here.

The food from this place is phenomenal! That’s coming from someone who grew up with Vietnamese parents who cooked bomb food. That being said, GET THE LAKSA SOUP! It’s so good! My only regret is not ordering another laksa to take home. Atmosphere is great, drinks are delicious (I got the Crazy Rich Asian drink), and the service is top notch. Highly recommend and will be coming back soon.

Atmosphere: Nice, cozy restaurant with a small bar. Feels very homey. Food: Outstanding. The Shaken Beef is one of the best dishes I have had in Portland. The Wonton Noodle Soup is fantastic as well. Was not the biggest fan of the Abundance Bowl though. Found it too dry and a bit lacking overall. Price: Prices are reasonable for the type of food and the quality. Service: Had a bit of a wait for my food as they had a lot of to-go orders to deal with, but the girl working was super friendly and very accommodating during my wait. Parking: Street parking. Plenty in the area Overall, one of my favorite restaurants in Portland and a definite to return to.

Nice place with a variety of seating options, including outside. The service was nice and unobtrusive for a long lunch with a friend I hadn't seen in decades. Very interesting menu with things I had not seen before. I ordered the BBH (Big Beautiful Heart) soup. I think it was a bit too oily and would have preferred rice noodles to the thick noodles presented which I'm guessing were wheat based. But the beef in it was pretty good and I am glad I tried something new.

My lemon grass spicy chicken and salad rolls with shrimp were fantastic! The place is small, but very cute. Surprisingly good cocktails.

I had takeout from here just two days ago and was floored by how amazing it all tasted even after the food traveling from Portland to Tacoma!!! I had the shaken tofu (MY FAVORITE DISH) and their vegan wonton noodle soup. The tofu was seasoned to PERFECTION! The vegan wonton with impossible meat is also now mine and my boyfriend's favorite dish. The meat was so well seasoned, we forgot it was vegan. The entire vegan wonton noodle soup is such a comfort meal, truly can't get enough. I didn't even mention how generous their portions are!!! I find it hard to believe that you would ever leave FK with an empty stomach or heart.

Only this location does the Chili Crab Noodles and you have to go have it. I didnt know it came in a half order (maybe just lunch) and that was a great portion. We also had the impossible egg rolls which were ok., the coconut prawns which were coconutty and good and the Mamas Laksa which was enough for 2 meals. Open air with outside seating as well. It was a great meal.

Decent meal. Place is located on NW Thurman. Lots of parking. Next to the old dragon tree location. Went for the chili crab which I saw on Instagram. Food was all fine. Asian salad had a nice dressing and super crispy tofu. Crab was ok. Wish they precut the crab or provided scissors or picks. Haianese chicken was ok. Chicken was moist - flavor so so.

Great ambiance and service. Food came out quickly and was so delicious. The flavors of the pho were on point!

I was born and raised in the culture where these foods are from. Please get the laksa, it's as authentic as you can get in Oregon (maybe PNW?). I really enjoyed the laksa so much. The nasi lemak was ok, although I have to give credit to the sambal. It's definitely one of the better sambals I've had in a restaurant. I also had something like a shaken beef with fries, also good!! Service was quick and friendly. The decor is really interesting, and very aesthetically pleasing, although a little dark.

Same owners as NE but so different. I ordered lemongrass chicken and made a comment about this isn't spicy at your other location so I assume it's not spicy. The waiter said he didn't think so. Well it turned out to be pretty spicy as they have jalapeño peppers in the dish. Luckily my friends had ordered some other dishes that had fried chicken on a salad or the satay that weren't spicy so we traded some. We had many appetizers and most were finished so I think overall people were happy with the food outside of my spicy chicken. We sat outside and they do take reservations so that was nice but not needed on a Tuesday night. I will add that it seemed very quiet and yet it did take much longer for the food than we expected especially compared to NE. At least 45 minutes so be prepared.

Great spot! Got to enjoy a lovely dinner on their front patio, drinks were refreshing, I tried out the lychee daiquiri and it did not disappoint! Service was attentive and friendly. Got to see some cute pups walking as well as dining at the table next to us. I ordered the shaken beef and it was very tender and full of flavor. Can't wait to come back or try out their other locations in NE & new partnership with Stem Wine bar on Mississippi!

The food was super delicious, a bit pricier than other places, but you get quality here. I ordered the chicken rice dish, which is similar to Nongs. The chicken came with bones in and cooked to perfection. The dipping sauce might be one of the cleanest umami flavors I've tasted. There was a cup of soup served with this dish, and the broth was good, but dare I say it, too flavorful. I would recommend if you're not on a budget. Oh, also, the service was spectacular.

It's a super cute little restaurant. The inside is nice and bright. The weather was nice on the day we went and so we sat outside which alright, a bit simple but covered. The food, however, was anything but simple. Both dishes were seasoned beautifully! I loved the spice in the Mama's Laksa cari and the red wine was so rich and inviting in the Northern Pho pho sot vang. Can't wait ti try more of their menu.

Okay so I am obsessed with everything these women do, Allouette was a beautiful place to dine and FK2 is an incredible next chapter. FK2 brings everything great about Friendship Kitchen into a space with indoor seating and a classed up vibe. The signature dishes here are wonderful - Order the Laksa if you want to go on a flavor journey. I love Laksa and theirs may be the best I've had. They also have some great choices to spoil yourself with, like the curry crab dish. My partner and I got this last time we went to celebrate our anniversary and we were in seafood HEAVEN. This location is still a work in progress, in the best of ways. We can count on them to continue innovating with the menu to figure out what works best and I am so excited to see what they have in store. My only complaint is that FK2 is further from me than the original lol. Well worth the drive. P.S. is anything cuter than the name? It is like a movie sequel, and I just freaking love it.

This place was so cozy and yummy They do not have inside seating so plan to come on a nice day or they have some covers shaded parts that you can easily hide under and they have some string heaters ! Bring some card games to hang out eat and just vibe

I don't even know where to start on how amazing this place is! Some really unique flavors and dishes (at least unique for me) but all so delicious without being too over the top. Great gluten and dairy free selections. I loved this space when it was Alouette and it still holds its original charm. Service Food Atmosphere

I visited Friendship Kitchen recently. I came for pho in particular. Service was good. I had the same experience as David P. There was flies that I was swatting away as I was eating dinner. The pho was good but it wasn't the best broth that I've had. It also was low on noodles. I probably won't visit again.

Food It was ok. Came for the chili crab noodles. The crab meat was slightly overcooked/dry but I liked the sauce. Also ordered a beef carpaccio. Expected it to be raw but it's actually fully cooked. Why? Service There were two waitstaff that night. Not sure what was the problem with ONE of them. His tone of voice was on the defense all night. Our food came out in parts because there was a large group ahead of us which we understood but after we ate about half our main meal, we still haven't seen any sign of the chili crab noodles. I thought maybe I forgot to actually put the order in so I inquired with the one of wait staff. His response began with "I don't know. I didn't take your order." I mean... was that necessary? But he did check on it and it came out. A few minutes later, we attempted to move the bowl with the crab utensils/bib to the next open table over to make some room in front of us. The same waitstaff basically denied us. His response was something along the lines of this being his routine that he needed to prep in case other people come. It was 8:30pm. There was no one sitting outside except us and no wait lines. What's your problem? I still tipped 20% but that will be the last time I'm coming and likely will not recommend.

This was a take out order. I live in the area and have always passed by, thought it might be worth trying out because it always smells so good. Loved the creativity of the menu, especially for vegan and gluten free options. Though WAY TOO MUCH salt in the vegan drum sticks and the pho broth- gave me complete heartburn and extreme inflammation from the sodium. While also, the pho was lacking flavor. How can a restaurant that smells so good lack flavor, might have to come back to try something else on the menu

My partner and I came in for a late lunch (~3pm) on a weekday. There was almost no one else here and we ordered the nasi lemak and the vegan wonton soup. Service: it was OK, especially when it was so quiet. The coats of the two people at our neighboring table fell on the floor, and it took me telling the diners about their coats on the floor for the wait staff to step in and ask if they wanted to hang up their coats. I expected better. Nasi lemak: not bad; the sauce (sambal? I don't know SE Asian cooking very well) was delicious, the anchovies and pickles added contrasting texture and lightness to the rice (cooked with coconut? pandan? wasn't entirely sure), the fried chicken was decent though perhaps slightly under seasoned. I'm no expert on SE Asian cooking, but it seemed authentic to the streets of Malaysia based on my limited knowledge. Wonton soup: I was surprised that the impossible meat did as good of a job at mimicking the usual pork/shrimp filling! Texture/flavor both on point, soup was light (though very reminiscent of what I would call "MSG soup" of water/MSG/lard/green onions common in Asian street food), overall pretty good, and I will especially commend them for how well the impossible meat filling worked out. Here's the reason for the 2-stars: there were flies everywhere, we kept swatting away the flies while we ate INDOORS on a chilly JANUARY day - why are there so many flies? Is this part of the full street food experience? Flies in the bathrooms too - is this a health code violation? They were not small fruit flies - either they were giant fruit flies, or they were actual flies, kind of hard to tell since we kept swatting them away. Something I would've been OK with eating outside on a summer day, but not like this. Price: a little pricy for what felt like street food that didn't get "elevated" - it was an edifying experience, the food was pretty decent, but felt a little overpriced (at the time of dining, it was $18 for the vegan wonton soup and $21 for the nasi lemak). Would we be back? Not with the fly infestation - the food was good enough that we'd be interested in coming back to experience more things, but only after the fly situation gets under control.

Oh my goodness! I just had the best pho in my whole life here! Granted, I haven't been to Vietnam so maybe it could be better there, but face it- we're talking Portland here. I asked the guy behind the counter service counter what the difference was between the northern pho and the classic pho. The northern pho has a tomato and red wine base (maybe from the French influence in Vietnamese cuisine). I opted for that and boy am I glad I did! The broth had such a rich depth of flavor that basic or "classic" pho doesn't have. The beef was so velvety tender! Some pho has really...well...creepy meat. If it's not creepy it's tough, or stringy or chewy. But not here! It was soooo good!! I felt a little sorry (not sorry) for my husband who ordered the vegan pho. I tasted the broth. It wasn't bad. It had a hint of sesame. I'm sure all the vegans out there would love it. (They don't know what they're missing! Haha!) My husband isn't a vegan. In fact, he loves beef. So I tried not to swoon too much in front of him. There are lots of other yummy-looking dishes on the menu that might be fun to try. But then I couldn't have the northern pho. Sigh... The bowls are huge. We both brought home half of our servings-yay!

Love this place! I come here for lunch frequently and the food is always fresh and tasty! I really love the chicken!

I was not too impressed by the food here. Chicken rice was missing the most important part of the dish - the Hainanese chicken rice chili sauce. Laksa was much too sweet and did not have the correct flavor. Or the sambal chilli I am quite disappointed to say the least. I thought I found a good place finally for Singaporean food ...

We live this place. You cannot order wrong, in our families opinion. We love the fried chicken, and anything with the bone- in short rib. This is a very kid friendly place. My daughter loves the rubber- duckie they put in her water.

Formerly Alouette, FK NW is located in the same space and is the second iteration of Friendship Kitchen & the menu features dishes I would personally eat on a regular basis. The cuisine is Vietnamese & Singaporean inspired, a cross between owners & partners Trang Nguyen's & Wei-En Tan's heritages. Mama's Laksa was my fave!

Love the food and staff. Drinks are great too. The Singaporean chili crab was amazing.

If this isn't the best wonton soup in Portland then I don't know what is!! Absolutely amazing little neighborhood spot that is just cozy and nice and inviting. Super friendly staff. This place is 10/10 in every way. LOOOOOVED IT

This 2nd location of Friendship Kitchen is very similar to the first location on NE Glisan. It has delicious food, and it is "counter service" so you go up to the central counter and order and then they bring it to you. This location was just brought converted from the previous Aloutte- owned by the same PDX Power couple. The menu and food choice is a little different than the Primary location, but it is just as delicious. When I was there last weekend, I ordered the Shaken Tofu it had the perfect balance of lemongrass and spice and with the rice, it was Devine. I ate every single bite! We also ordered some veggie salad rolls with tofu skins in the inside- it was very satisfying. I'm glad they opened a 2nd location of Friendship Kitchen.

Good ambience, nice service and good food. I had been looking for some singaporean/malay food in portland area for a while and stumbled across this place while visiting a coffee shop right next to it.

We went to the location in NW with 8 people and no one liked their food. I had the chicken and it was the saddest looking chicken that I laughed when it was set down. It was small and dry. Rice was mushy but the little cup of broth was delicious. My partner order the sizzling steak and it was served with an egg that both were drowning in oil. They seemed short staffed and only 1 person hosting, serving and making drinks so it took some patience. Same with the kitchen since our dinners were served separate so some sat with no food while others had theirs. No reason for any of us to go back.

AMAZING! MUST VISIT! This is such a unique restaurant in Portland. They not only serve delicious Vietnamese food but also authentic Singaporean food as well. Such a unique combo. The service was above and beyond. Staffs are super accommodating and friendly. Especially, the owners, Wei- En and Trang. If you go make sure you say hi to them! Wei-en has exceptional knowledge on wine, make sure you get some wine recommendations from her! Hidden gem! Such a beautiful location and beautiful decorations!

I have no idea how this place got so much good reviews. I ordered their shrimp skewers and Vietnamese crepes for appetizers, their laksa and the Singapore crab dish and the shrimp was so overcooked that the shell was stuck on and wouldn't come off and the shrimp meat was tough to chew. The Vietnamese crepes were lackluster and didn't even come with the rice paper wrap. The laksa was probably the best, flavor wise, but also underwhelming. What made me try this place was their crab dish, but the crab quality wasn't good or fresh. The crab meat was hard to get out and the sauce didn't have as much flavor as other Singaporean crab dishes that I've had. Worst of all, the service was incredibly slow and terrible all around. There were two bartenders at this small restaurant, working the tiny bar, with one woman sitting at the bar (I think she was an employee, because I saw one of the bartenders eat food off her plate) and there were two tables with big families with kids and they both spent most of the time at the bar and didn't check on the tables. I'm never coming back here.

Everything is too sweet.. pho broth was sweet not the eharty beefy kind, laksa has no spicy kick just typical americanized just like their bun bo hue. Service was slow took them about 45min to bring out bowl of pho and laksa.. and chili crab was nowhere to be seen. Seems like everyone was having the same issue where one table waited more than an hour for Chilli crab and couldn't wait any longer. Just poor business operating. Probably would not return not worth my time

So shocked at the service and attitude we received! We are frequent visitors of the NE location, and wanted to check this new one out. It's a beautiful space, but unfortunately, it had only one server/bartender in the front, who could barely take the time to speak to us. There were only two tables occupied other than ours, and yes, there were to go orders, but people sitting at a table for a while should take priority. And multitasking is part of a servers job. After waiting for a while without receiving any eye contact, we let him know that we were ready to order. He told us he was busy with the other orders, so we waited 10 more minutes. No further eye contact as he filled napkins and silverware into cups, and then went back to packing other food. We finally gave up and told him we were leaving as he couldn't take the time to take our order. He yelled, "Good, and never come back again." Have never felt so disrespected at a restaurant or been yelled at before. No apologies that they were "busy" (even though an order could have placed and prepped while they did other things). Maybe they're having a bad, but does not excuse that type of "service" or even behavior. I can see why this place is empty. It does not have nearly the same "friendly" vibe as the NE. Can't even review the food. Sad.

My food was delivery so I cannot speak to the ambiance and service. I'm. A mad pho whore who has moved across the river and away from my beloved pho house. I ordered the chicken pho not expecting much but my socks got blown off because this pho was amazing! The broth is rich but light. The chicken perfectly done and the garnishes were fresh. I would recommend!

This place has so much potential!!! Unfortunately it appears the owners have never owned a restaurant or worked in the industry. By the end of the meal I felt so bad for the staff that was left we left more tip. I had the good fortune in my life to live in Asia for 8 years and the chef definitely has his pulse on the flavors of Singaporean/Malaysian food. Our server was this very lovely young man and he was completely overwhelmed with a house full of people with only him, a bartender (who I believe was there the entire day) and the very good chef. The flavors were spot on. I probably would've given the restaurant a 1 star if it weren't for the chef knowledge of the regional flavors and our wonderful waiter Kevin who tried his best with the kitchen running out of food and him having to be the messenger. The owners really need to notice that they need to hire more than one person as the floor person, bartender and chef. It is a counter service restaurant, so not sure where the communication breakdown was. About the food though, the beef carpaccio is so delicious ! Spring rolls are delicious, could have had more mint though. Our friends we went with also lived in Asia and they agreed the restaurant has so much potential, but the owners are too busy to care. I really hope that isn't the case for their staff and for their customers. Because this is a niche food flavor we are missing in Portland. By the end of the night we were laughing because of all because it was a comedy of errors kind of meal. One you wouldn't believe in one review! Will definitely try again and hopefully they will get their kinks worked out!

This food was so good, we went back for more the next night. This is really richly flavored soups from Malaysia and Singapore region. I spent a lot of time in film-making in Indonesia, with similar food -- and this is as good as anything I ate there. But in the evening reservations are recommended.

Great experience at the new addition to the friendship kitchen family. I love their blend of Vietnamese and Singaporean dishes. I'm a sucker for the little ikan bilis fried fish with the sambal sauce, a great authentic element you don't often get in the PNW.

this restaurant is a must if you are in the portland area! the food is DIVINE! i could eat it everyday. just like the other friendship kitchen location, the impossible eggrolls, dream roll and classic pho are DELICIOUS. i've been to her other friendship kitchen but this is the first time i tried some of the other menu items. the lobster puffs and they were fantastic and northern pho is SUPERB, the red wine broth is so rich and comforting! the nasi lemak was delicious as well, i loved the coconut rice and the chicken was so crispy and juicy, everything paired so perfectly together. the service was nothing short of amazing, the staff is so friendly and kind. the owners are so vibrant, warm and welcoming. You can tell they are genuinely happy you are there! the ambiance is an 15/10. happy vibes all around. i cannot wait to come back and try more food! i will be a customer for life!

Best service! So grateful for this lovely spot!!!! The food is great and you will have such a good experience here.

Omg- first time trying friendship kitchen, we got delivery because I wasn't feeling well. The vegetarian options were INSANE. we got dream rolls, vegan pho, impossible wonton soup and "fakin" beef. Everything was absolutely incredible. We can't wait to dine in soon!

I ordered the beef pho and I requested it without fish sauce. However, the hostess/waitress didn't listen. I didn't enjoy it because it had a very strong fish taste. Plus, they were out of Thai beer. The restaurant also didn't have any Christmas decorations. The music was eccentric. No one said "Merry Christmas" nor "goodbye" when we left.

The food was absolutely amazing, the service was just as good, the vibe of the place was just what people need at the end of a long day.

A truly amazing experience, the food is soooo good!!! And the atmosphere and joy brought to you by the staff and the owner Trang just made this a wonderful time! Highly recommend!

Amazing food, great menu, and lovely attitude. Glad to support a BIPoC LGBTQIA+ business that provides excellent service. I highly recommend and will be back myself.

From the moment I walked in I knew I was in for something special... all the flavors were flying around my mouth and brain from cocktails to desert. The energy was amazing, it felt like home and new friends :)

Wow, I had heard great things about Friendship Kitchen but I was still pleasantly surprised. I had Lobster Puffs, coconut prawns and deep fried sweet sesame balls for dessert. The Pinot Gris was also very good. Sat at the bar and had an interesting conversation with the bartender/server. Highly recommend, can't wait to come back and try more things on the menu

Absolutely fantastic. Id say they are more pooular than they thought they were going to be, so it takes a bit of time to get your food. The location is really cool, just a random restaurant in an otherwise residential neighborhood. It has unique menu items I've not seen elsewhere but the pho is so good I haven't ordered any of the other stuff yet. Bomb ass shit, go right now.

It was recommended to me and exceeded my high expectations. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The flavors were AMAZING! The satay was awesome and seemed truly authentic. The "BBH" (described as Pho's sexy and spicy cousin) with beef was filling and a celebration of flavors that worked so well together. Sitting at the bar was fun to watch the magic happen with its extensive cocktail menu. I highly recommend this great place and terrific addition to this NW corner with great eateries!

I have been to the first location in NE several times, and service there is exceptional. The vibes are amazing and friendly, they are so welcoming, and food arrives promptly and is delicious, with nice big portions. I believe it was the owner working there, and she just made it such a nice experience. However, trying the NW location for the first time was an awkward and slightly disappointing experience. We walked in, and barely were greeted by the server, who said sorry they were booked up (preparing an empty restaurant for parties to come) and then last minute said we could sit outside, so we happily took a table outside. We asked about bahn mis because the menu literally said "everything but bahn mi and (other items) are gf" and then were told they don't have bahn mi on the menu. Then why tell us they're not GF and have their name on the menu? So confusing! We ordered the coconut prawns and Asian salad with chicken which both ended up being DELICIOUS. We were just very disappointed by the service. The server was alone and stressed out until another server showed up, but until then I heard the first guy grumbling and swearing getting stuff from the back. I felt bad for his stress but also felt uncomfortable probably will only be going to Friendship Kitchen 1 in NE from now on, which is sad because I really wanted to try more things at FS2.
