Le Bistro Montage Ala Cart: Reviews & Ratings
Mac art by Evan tonight. He was super helpful with taking the time to talk and make this custom deliciousness. Cheddar Mac and cheese with Cajun spices and andouille sausage. It was exactly what we were needing! Perfect cheesy sauce goodness with a bit of heat. Pasta was perfectly cooked as well, always a plus!
Had a great time at the Hawthorne Asylum, we ate at the Ala Carte Montage the food was AMAZING. Evan was running the cart and was so nice, we got our food really quick. All the ingredients were hot and fresh, we will definitely be coming back.
Was wonderful to see the large group of people supporting this Portland Staple. The Grand Opening of Montage! The Staff was hard at work making every meal a success*! As I stood in line waiting to place my order. I continuously heard people thanking them and speaking of how great the food was. I wish my turn and placed my order.. I ordered the deep fried artichoke hearts, as well as the jambalaya with chicken and alligator. I also had the Po boy with shrimp. each and every dish was unique in its Cajun flavor the artichokes hearts were Crisp and tender. the jambalaya was spicy and cooked perfect. the shrimp Po Boy was filled with just enough shrimp to have a shrimp with every bite.. I'll be back.. Thanks for the Great food. And the Rose
The food truck is just as good as the restaurant ever was. Savory and complex Fried Artichoke Hearts with aoli is such a treat, and to follow with the classic Old Mac is enough to convince me that they've kept the heart and soul of the brick and mortar restaurant. No compromise on the ingredients or quality and handing out a tin foil rose with the order is a great throwback to the old days. Collaborating with a number of excellent other food carts shows me they've evolved. Fireplaces, heated seating areas and global cuisine with beer and wine up front is quintessential Portland. As a humble fan of the old Montage, I am thoroughly impressed with the changes.
I came to the ala cart location @ Hawthorne Asylum today from Vancouver, and it was very popular/busy. The awesome one-woman show running the cart was amazing; she kindly let me know the appx wait time, which ended up being much faster than anticipated, and was not only very kind and courteous, but considering she was was taking the orders, making them, and getting them to customers with professionalism and care, she did it it a smile and that gorgeous red hair, and very timely. Willow is a ROCKSTAR and Montage is lucky to have such a dedicated employee who keeps long time loyal customers like myself coming back over and over! Thank you Willow for your amazing service and the delish Mac and artichoke hearts, I’ll be coming back even more often! You made my day!
Every time I come to Le bistro montage ala cart, I’m always served with phenomenal service. Evan, has served me before in the past and I have to say, he is so kind, so personable! Not only having excellent service, the food always taste so freaking good. I absolutely love coming here, I will make the 25 minute drive from where I am to just come back to this place! If you have not tried this food cart out, please do!! I got the creamy pesto with chicken and I swear your mouth will thank you!
This is a must try truck in PDX! I recommend the pesto pasta with chicken, the jambalaya and the fried artichoke hearts (they make an in-house lemon dill sauce to dip in). I’ll be back every time I visit Portland moving forward!
The Hawthorn Asylum delivers up! Great service at Montage- I followed chef’s advice and ordered the Mac- spicy with shrimp. Head over and indulge. It’s sooo good.
