Ankeny Tap & Table

It was time to use my birthday gift decor it expired. And I'm so happy I stopped by. I just came in after 3pm and they have a happy hour also for food. So I'll ordered a tuna sandwich the Ankeny sliders and a Cesar's salad. Isn't that a full meal?And each bite was good. The salad was fresh and crispy just Rothe reminded me of amount of cheese on top. The sliders were smashed paddies and caramelized to perfection. And the tuna sandwich. A slight toasted sourdough bread (not a big fan of white break but it was tasty) and fresh green salad with tomatoes, cucumber and on top a generous amount of tuna salad! A great bite. Friendly and fast service and a wonderful weather - what more to ask.

We stopped in on Saturday night because everything else in the neighborhood we wanted to go to had like a two hour wait. I got the fig burger and upgraded to rosemary and duck fat fries. I have no regrets. It was a solid burger and they didn't skimp on the bacon. There was a pretty good sized group ahead of us so I was expecting a long wait for food but it all came out pretty quickly. It was a pretty chill and laid back vibe, not overly loud, we could hold a conversation, but not dead either. I would definitely be willing to come back. The fries were good but honestly a little overly greasy. But what did I expect ordering duck fat? I think they could've used a bit more salt.

Cool spot serving up good burgers, cocktails, and Gorges brews. The street they're on, the rainbow road, is closed to cars and creates a large and cool outdoor dining area. Super fun vibes, and a popular bike through area. They also have seating inside both on the main floor and upstairs. I've been here a couple times when visiting Portland and have enjoyed it each visit. I've had a different burger/sandwich and cocktail each time I've come and have liked everything I've had.Food and drink menus aren't too expansive, but I like that they have some more unique burgers along with the more traditional one, and some fun sides. They serve up beer from Gorges across the street. You order at Ankeny, and they bring it over from Gorges, pretty cool concept, unsure if they do it on rainy days too.

Great spot for a post work beer. Can't beat a great IPA for $6.50 these days. Cool vibe and good service.

Adorable public house in a cute area of Portland (that would cringe, I'm sure, with both adjectives I just used). Ordering process is a bit harried but the staff are wonderful and the food is delivered perfectly, so it doesn't really matter. Food and drinks are on point and I love the open indoor-outdoor concept that seems to celebrate the summer.

The fries were phenomenal. Detailed breakdown below:**Service, 5/5** Our waitress was really sweet and did a fantastic job of answering all my questions. I ordered on my phone and wanted to replace the greens in my BLT with shredded lettuce, but she also went to ask the chef what options I'd have for substitutions. **Decor & cleanliness, 5/5** Dark and moody, but plenty of seating with additional room upstairs if you want to watch games.**Price & portion, 5/5** For the portion size and quality of the food, I definitely thought it was worth it. **Presentation, 5/5** The presentation was cute as well as practical. The fries came in a wire basket which allowed them to vent and not get soggy.**Taste, 5/5** I got a BLT and upgraded to rosemary fries. The BLT had such flavorful, crispy bread that was absolutely packed with filling and held up well. And OMG the fries!! SO crispy, fantastic aromatic rosemary flavor, and perfectly seasoned. These might've been some of the best fries I've ever had.**Other notes** They have a collaboration with a nearby brewery -- when we got a beer flight, we literally saw a staff member walk across the street to pick up the beers. Gender-neutral bathroom was very clean and well maintained.

To owner: I mention in my review each time I've been here I've been the only person inside or outside or one other party on the patio max. Maybe train your staff to offer service when it's totally dead like it's been each time I've been here. I did say the food is good I just feel draft cocktails shouldn't be 12 dollars (I know you say who cares but people do care how their cocktails are made) and 15 dollars for 3 tacos with not much carnitas in them is overpriced. I've lived in multiple much bigger cities with much more Mexican food than PDX and that's a bit much for what you get here. I do like the carnitas tho. Yelp is a place not just to vent but give genuine feedback based on your dining experience and sad to say the 3 times I've been here the experience was not great hence my honest review.

Mixed review here. Food was kind of mediocre. The fries were good but the burger was cold, fell apart that easy, and simply not that amazing. As a bar or place to hang out though, I enjoyed it. Outdoor tables in the sun, TV inside. Would come back for drinks. Probably not food. Food also takes a long time (wasn't even busy).

This place looked great at first. Dog friendly, outside seating, etc. QR code to order and pay for everything. The problem is, they were out of half of the menu: French fries, chicken strips, grilled cheese, eggs... then the real tragedy: 3 tacos for $17. No sides even. And if you want carnitas? $5 up charge. That's $22 for 3 ala cart tacos. Insanity.... (Fyi only sides avail were coleslaw and kale salad). I have a hard time spending $$ at this price point for so little service or food. On another note, this drink was good.

I likely would not have found this place on my own. I am not in this area often and this is a true hidden gem - especially the amount of space they have between the inside and outside. We took over the outer patio area for my friend's birthday gathering and it holds quite a crowd with a very open fee yet not open to the street and tucked back. I was planned to just drop by but then I met a bunch of fabulous people, was bought a drink - how can I refuse. I had their Pretty in Pink which they normally make with gin. This was vodka with Elderflower liquor, grapefruit juice and sparkling rose.... Orange rind - delicious! Here's the thing Portland bars - what is with the gin craze? I can't be mad at it - I just wonder what happened during lock down that everyone came out of the gate drinking gin... Sorry kids but I am a vodka gal and with that said ... the Pretty in Pink is delicious with vodka but probably delicious with gin too. Their food looked pretty great but I had just eaten so I will have to go back since their menu looks pretty great. This is a happening part of town so fair warning about the parking situation - maybe you could bike or ride a thing.
