I love this restaurant with all my heart and my family and i have been going to Hoda’s every time we are in town for nearly a decade now. and have never had a problem. Our experience there last night was an odd one, and unfortunately has put us off of making it a destination on our trips again.
Our waitress was a sweetheart, and nothing was her fault and she was slowed down by the kitchen.
Menu has changed, and service was slow were the first things we noted right away.
Bread came cold and when asked for hot bread it was clearly older bread that had been warmed up. They used to make the bread fresh all the time. ALWAYS ноТ.
We ordered labneh as an appetizer and it came over half an hour later. Mind you it is just a cold yogurt dish. Thin layer of it on the plate when it arrived. The tabbouleh was also fluffed in the bowl with unnecessary lettuce leaves to make it look fuller. One of the owners son’s I have known to be in the restaurant was eating in the open kitchen space while also moving food for customers around. Again another thing I would have NEVER seen before at this establishment. Food arrived not all at one time. Food was interesting.
My food came out first and then every 10-15 minutes another dish would come out. We stopped waiting to eat together and had to eat separately as our food would get cold otherwise. My mother got falafel and it was clearly not homemade like all the times before, tasted good though. My brother and Father got kebobs, a lot of oil on the plate. Tasted fine otherwise but not the flavor we loved and remember being. The rice I don’t think was saffron or even basmanti rice as far as I can tell. I am aware restaurants go under change! This is just my opinion! We also haven’t been to Hoda’s in almost a year since last time so maybe we caught them on an off day.
And service was very nice but not enough service people for the amount of tables, a little slow.
I am saying all this because I have loved this place for a while and I know what it can be. Just minor fixes thats all.

Nice spot overall. The food was good — the hummus was a little bitter, but everything else we tried was really tasty. Service was pretty slow and we didn’t get much attention, which was a bit frustrating. Also kind of funny they didn’t have toothpicks, especially with all the meat on the menu. Still, I’d recommend giving it a try.

Amazing owners , staff , experience and quality of food , every time I travel to Portland I make sure I visit — the food reminds me of my mother’s cooking . Can’t wait to go back on my next visit.

The food was very good and I would definitely go back. We went on a Saturday night and with reservations were seated immediately. Sound dampening materials like acoustic art panels on the walls would make the environment more comfortable. While it may not be noisy all the time, when we went there the conversation from the group next to us and around us was so loud we could barely hear ourselves talk.

The food was really good, but our server pretty much forgot about us and we didn’t receive some of the items we ordered. Staff was friendly and seemed a little overwhelmed by a busy weekend night.
We ordered three appetizers and an entree to split. It took a long time for the first appetizer to come out (mini dips). About 20 minutes later we got the entree we ordered, and by the time we finished that entree we still hadn’t received two of our appetizers. We ended up just cancelling those appetizers and going elsewhere for dessert. I was really disappointed in this experience because my wife and I looked forward to going here for long time. Four stars because the food (at least the food we actually got) was still so good.

Insanely good. I hadn’t been in before and stopped by cause it was close to an errand I ran, and omg pleasantly surprised! I would’ve been happy with a lot more average food, but everything I got was soo good. Meat, flatbread, hummus, even the rice was especially good. And the garlic sauce Will be back many more times.

This restaurant was absolutely amazing. Probably the best hummus we have ever had, and the chicken skewers were extremely tender and juicy. Everything had really great flavors, and the portion sizes were very generous. I am already looking forward to returning. They also do catering, which is definitely a place I will turn to for large events.

We came across Hoda’s while walking on Belmont. The staff was very friendly in greeting us and getting us seated immediately.
The food was delicious, the flavors were top notch and the portions were generous without being too much. We ordered the Mouhammara, Vegan Sheikh Al Mehshi and Spinach Pie. Highly recommend.

I had a mixed experience at Hoda’s. The staff were nice and the vibe was okay, but the desserts were really disappointing, especially the knefe and baklava.
The knefe looked nothing like the menu photo, and mine arrived burnt. It was far more savory than sweet—basically burnt, salty cheese with only a thin layer of kunafa—and it wasn’t even presented in any recognizable shape (just a messy pile). It felt like a scam and misleading because what I received was nothing like what was advertised. This isn’t what I’d expect from this cuisine, especially from a place that also does catering.
The baklava was very dry and not crispy at all.
The savory food was good overall, but it was a bit oily, and the oil didn’t taste like olive oil.

Hoda’s Catering was absolutely incredible for our wedding! The food was a huge hit with all of our guests — people are still raving about the steak bite appetizers, the sea bass with mango, and those amazing potatoes. They were flexible with our cocktail choices and made the entire catering package so easy and enjoyable to use.
From start to finish, Hoda and her entire family were warm, kind, and a joy to work with. Our tasting was such a fun experience, and it gave us so much confidence going into the big day. On the wedding day itself, the servers were professional and attentive, helping everything flow seamlessly.
They offer excellent variety in their food options, and every dish was prepared beautifully. We truly loved working with them and can’t recommend Hoda’s Catering enough!
