"Known for its double cheeseburgers, which Gabriella Martinez finds irresistible. She particularly loved the Kim Jong Grillin kimchi burger special." - Thom Hilton
"What has been billed at Portland’s answer to In-N-Out opened its first location on Southeast Powell in 2018 in a former Taco Time building. It now operates two other locations in Portland proper, which is testament to its success in the city’s burger business. Its menu is simple and clean, much like its brightly colored design. From the beginning, an In-n-Out-style burger that essentially comes “animal style” by default was the idea — every burger is stacked with tomatoes, pickle chips, lettuce, and a slather of special sauce, though adding a few slices of bacon is always a smart choice." - Ron Scott
"While Taco Bell or even Del Taco get all the attention, the Northwest does have its own homegrown taco chain, love it or hate it. Famous for Mexi-Fries and deep-fried Crisp Burritos, Taco Time, started in Eugene 59 years ago, has been getting harder to find. There are only three locations left in Portland proper, though the chain, marked by a bright green cactus sign, is scattered throughout Oregon and Washington, with franchises even in Canada, Kuwait, and Curaçao." - Krista Garcia
"A Portland burger drive‑thru known for quick comfort food and late‑night appeal; it is one of the eateries associated with the chef who later pursued a chickpea‑based, dairy‑free frozen dessert venture." - Monica Burton
"Super Deluxe, a fast-food restaurant in Portland, has garnered attention with its nostalgia-driven concept and critically acclaimed burgers. Co-owner Micah Camden is considering new locations for expansion, indicating a potential second site in development. The restaurant gained notable hype and long lines right after its July opening, partly due to praise from Simpsons writer and fast-food critic Bill Oakley, who called it the best burger he has ever had in Portland." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
