Smaaken Waffle Sandwiches

So many ways to go and none of them are wrong. The chicken maple is a new favorite, I got that along with the monte cristo. The vegan sardou is good but really heavy, need to really be in the mood for that one.I highly suggest coming with someone and getting two different sandwiches and splitting it. Ambiance and service are 10/10. I will always make a stop here when I come to Portland.

This truck is located in Hawthorne Asylum, which is a great place to hangout and get a few drinks with your meal. The GM of the company served us. Super friendly and personable. The waffles themselves were great, the ingredients inside of the sandwich have mixed reviews from my partner and I. I got the sardou. Two bites in and I remembered that I'm really not a fan of spinach or artichoke lol. Not sure why I swung for this one knowing that, but I expected the topping to be more like a blended spinach artichoke dip. This was the case, but a bit too heavy on the cooked spinach portion, which I had to scrape off. The sandwich was markedly better afterwards. The portion of the spinach and artichoke mixture had great flavor, and the texture of the egg was light and fluffy, but not dry at all.My partner got the Monte Carlo. Once again, the waffle was fantastic. The raspberry jam as well. However, the meat was fairly dry and her sandwich pretty greasy. But overall, I enjoyed the experience and would recommend giving it a try. I would eat here again, but my partner prefers we head elsewhere for breakfast tomorrow so do with that what you will!

This place was actually pretty good. You get a sandwich on a waffle. It was prepared fresh and took about 10 mins to come out.I had the sandwich with bacon, turkey, cheese and maple butter. My mom took a bight and said Yum. That's a win!

Ate here yesterday morning after a date with a lovely lady kayak paddling just outside Portland - and it was perfect for us as we were soaked & half frozen (me from Hawaii / she San Diego).... This morning we had it delivered before I flew out to the houseboat she rented for the month and sadly not everything made it to the houseboat that our Uber Eats guy dropped off so I called to bitch - well not their fault / Uber driver ate my waffle in the way. A testament is just how good it is - coffee is fantastic too.

I came here the other day for lunch at Hawthorne Asylum. This place was by far my favorite because of the diverse flavor options. They also have a seasonal flavor too. I ended up getting the Bananas Foster. The bananas were caramelized perfectly.They have a huge variety of savory and sweet waffles. There can be signficant wait. However, the waffles are absolutely worth it!IG: @QueenOfAdventureNYC

Tried Smaaken Waffle in the Hawthorne Asylum Food Carts. So many waffle sandwiches to choose from. I had the Chicken Maple sandwich. I expect a larger piece of Chicken with my waffle. Very small pieces. But it was tasty.

I'll start by saying I'm more of a pancake and french toast guy. Usually waffles at restaurants are underwhelming. With that being said, these are AMAZING!What We Had- Holla (bacon, egg, maple butter)- Smakken (brie, apples, bacon, maple butter)- 2 coffees (1 iced)Pros:- Maple butter!- Maple butter!!- Waffle sandwiches are just a much better creation than just waffles and fruit and whip cream. Cons:- The wait can be a while but they're popular and they have at least 4 waffle machines going. Overall:This is one of the top 3 waffle places in Portland. I wouldn't get waffles at many other places than here.

Great tasting sandwiches. Really big you can share. Fulfilling lunch. The Hawthorne Asylum had many choices but this place caught my attention and I'm glad because it was delicious from the waffle fries to the crispy waffle sandwich.

Amazing!: I recently visited this waffle place and was originally looking for crepes, but the lady there informed me that they were closed and that they sell waffles instead. I decided to give their waffles a try and was pleasantly surprised by the wide variety of flavors available. I asked the lady to surprise me, and she was kind enough to give me a free waffle, which was the Blue Moon Lights flavor. I loved it! Overall, my experience at Waffle was great, and I'm already planning on returning.

Ordered food from here and the sausage was not cooked. And when I say not cooked, I mean it y'all. Beware of the pink sausage here, unless you're into that
