"Described as a true Portland institution for pho, particularly in the 82nd Avenue corridor where Vietnamese and Chinese eats cluster." - Dianne de Guzman
"Open since 2003, this spacious neighborhood institution is a well-oiled machine, serving up over twenty different steaming hot bowls of pho that arrive in short order. Along with sprouts and basil, the pho ga comes with a substantial pile of delicate vermicelli noodles, tender slices of chicken, and a side of ginger-laden sweet chili sauce." - Janey Wong
"This NE 82nd Avenue spot features a large dining room that is often packed — with good reason. Steaming hot bowls of noodles over rustic-yet-elegant broth are paired with tender beef, toothsome tripe, and melty tendon. Pho Oregon is open for dine in, all within its expansive banquet hall." - Rebecca Roland
"Pho Oregon, located in Madison South, provides a comforting and consistent dining experience reminiscent of a Vietnamese American diner. The restaurant features a neon sign, large porcelain vases, and lacquered wood art panels, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Known for its pho, the restaurant offers a soothing experience with aromatic spices like star anise and cinnamon. The pho is served hot, allowing patrons to enjoy what can be described as a "pho facial," inhaling the warming spices and herbs. The venue is unchanged since its early days, providing a sense of stability and comfort, particularly appreciated during life's turbulent moments." - Janey Wong
"Pho Oregon is the other go-to pho spot for the Kims — they visit either Pho Hung or Pho Oregon regularly, with Jane favoring extra tendon and tripe and Ed preferring nearly everything else so they can swap bites." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
