" Hoda's has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in Portland! I visited with a group of friends during a bustling Saturday night. The moment we walked in, we were enveloped in the aroma of spices and grilled meats. We decided to share multiple dishes, including their famous hummus and a kebab platter. I must say, the flavors were spot on—a delightful blend of spices and warmth. The portion sizes were more than adequate, and we all left feeling satisfied. The service was fast, though I did feel a little rushed as it got busier. Overall, a lovely evening, and I encourage anyone looking for authentic Lebanese cuisine to give it a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of hosting my daughter's birthday party at Hoda's, and it was hands down a fantastic experience! The catering team was incredibly helpful in planning the menu, accommodating all dietary restrictions. Our guests were blown away by the flavors and the presentation of the dishes. The highlight was undoubtedly the grape leaves and the mixed grill platter, which were not only delicious but also plentiful. Everyone left satisfied, with some even asking for takeout! The staff went above and beyond, making sure everything ran smoothly. Hoda's is now my go-to for catering needs. I couldn't recommend it more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hoda's is hands-down one of the best Lebanese restaurants I’ve ever visited! Everything from the dips to the main entrees was incredible. The flavors remind me of home, and it truly feels like a family-run establishment. The staff is welcoming and attentive, just as you'd expect from such a genuine restaurant. I've been trying to get through the menu as there's so much to try, but each time I go, I find myself gravitating toward the kafta. Absolutely delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! We stumbled upon Hoda's after hearing rave reviews from friends. I was immediately drawn in by the inviting decor and charming ambiance. The menu had so many enticing options that I had a hard time picking! However, I ultimately decided on the chicken shawarma and was not disappointed. It was marinated perfectly and paired wonderfully with their garlic sauce. The portions were generous for the price, leaving me feeling satisfied but not overly stuffed. The service was attentive without being intrusive. I'll definitely be recommending this place to everyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, my experience at Hoda's was nothing short of delightful! The authentic Lebanese flavors were present in every bite of the dishes we ordered, particularly the shawarma and falafel, which were simply perfect. The generous portions meant that we left with takeout, which was a nice bonus. The place was bustling, adding to the lively vibe of the evening. The staff was friendly and attentive, contributing to a wonderful atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Hoda's and was blown away by the experience! We started with the appetizer platter to share, and every bite was a burst of flavor! The falafel was the best I've ever had, perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy within. For my main dish, I ordered the Kafta kabob; it was juicy and well-seasoned, and it came with a generous serving of rice and grilled vegetables. The only downside was that it was quite busy on the night we went, making it somewhat noisy. However, the food and service more than made up for it! I can't wait to return and try more of their offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The food here has such fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. I opted for a combo platter featuring several different meats and vegetarian options; each item was well-seasoned. The attention to detail in each dish truly shows. The server we had was a breath of fresh air—attentive without being overbearing. I can't wait to return and treat my friends to such a fantastic meal! " (*Curated Review*)
