While Portland gets the spotlight for its food cart scene, Beaverton has quietly built its own roster of exceptional mobile eateries.
From authentic international cuisine to creative fusion concepts, these five food trucks stand out from the crowd.
Nosh
This Mediterranean truck specializes in scratch-made falafel using a family recipe passed down through three generations.
Their crispy falafel balls feature a distinctive green interior from fresh herbs and a perfect crunch-to-tender ratio.
The shawarma wrap combines thinly sliced marinated chicken with house-made garlic sauce and pickled turnips.
Don’t skip their hand-cut fries dusted with za’atar spice blend.
Big’s Chicken
After a fire destroyed their brick-and-mortar location, Big’s Chicken took to the streets.
Their Alabama-style white sauce chicken is smoked daily over oak wood for 4 hours.
The signature sandwich comes on a potato roll with pickles and coleslaw.
Their jojos are brined for 24 hours before being pressure fried, resulting in a creamy interior and crackling exterior.
Poblano Pepper
Run by the Rodriguez family since 2018, this truck serves regional Mexican dishes from Puebla.
Their mole poblano uses 23 ingredients, including three types of chilies and Mexican chocolate.
The handmade corn tortillas are pressed to order.
Their weekend-only pozole rojo takes 12 hours to prepare and often sells out by mid-afternoon.
Thai Bloom Cart
An offshoot of their popular restaurant, Thai Bloom’s truck focuses on street food classics.
The pad kra pao (holy basil stir-fry) uses Thai basil grown in their own garden.
Their khao soi features fresh egg noodles in a rich coconut curry topped with crispy noodles and house-made chili oil.
Seoul Kitchen
This Korean fusion truck blends traditional recipes with modern interpretations.
Their bulgogi cheesesteak combines thinly sliced marinated beef with caramelized kimchi and melted provolone.
The kimchi fried rice uses three-day fermented house-made kimchi and is topped with a sunny-side-up egg.
Their gochujang wings are double-fried and tossed in a sauce that balances sweet, spicy, and savory.
