Luc Lac Vietnamese Kitchen 835 Southwest 2nd Avenue, Portland, OR 97204

"Haven't been here in in a long time and I forgot how much we love this place! The food is awesome. Great Banh Mi sandwiches. The rice dishes are awesome. The salads are great. Even the egg rolls taste fantastic, not some cheap add on like most restaurants. Quick service too. Just expect a wait for a table since this place is so popular and good."

"Broth was a little oily, and a little more on the sweet side than I prefer. But overall not bad. Broth:Noodle:Toppings ratio was pretty good. The whole environment was PACKED! I don't think it was so much for the food, but the bar selection is pretty good! The environment is definitely more club like (loud music, loud people, very tight spaces), with a heavy red lighting all over. So it's nice to take friends out if you wanna' have fun, but not if you're looking for a deep philisophical conversation. Nice that they still have outdoor seating though!"

"This is a very popular spot in Portland downtown and almost always has a lineup. While sometimes the line may seem short, it could still be 10-15 minutes per group in front of you. At night, the place turns up the ambiance charm with cool lighting and it’s reminiscent of some of the old school Asian cities. I quite liked the feel. The food is more of a Vietnamese fusion style, but still very tasty. The combination bun (noodle dish) comes with one of everything, which is quite generous in portion. The pho is a tad on the salty side, but still tasty. They do have a full service bar so you can order more than just water, beer, and pop. Definitely a fun spot to check out at night or for a date night."

"Pretty nice atmosphere inside, they do the standard order before you sit (they find you a place and won’t take your order if there isn’t a place for you to sit). Ordering is efficient. You have to get your own water and utensils. Food was quite good though my papaya salad was a tad too sweet for me. I would’ve liked a few more shrimp and perhaps rice crackers like they do in other Vietnamese places. But hey, that’s a personal thing. Service, as in checking on you about food or needs is non existent."

"One of the best spots in Portland hands down. From location, to atmosphere, to food, they really hit the mark. All the staff were very helpful with menu recommendations, and the food was quite fast. The prices were reasonable, and the food was amazing. I highly recommenced this spot, especially if you’re visiting Portland!"
