We shared the combo plate and a milkshake! The bbq soy curls and chicken were delicious. The peanut butter cookie milk shake was incredible. I would come here again just for a milk shake!
Homegrown smoker was recommended to me by a Portland local. The jackfruit/beyond meat ribs surpassed all expectations I've ever had of vegan meat replacements. I got a combo for takeout. It was enough for 2 meals so the price for portion is great too.
We’re getting ready to launch our latest book, Kitchen Heat, and that means a lot of extra work. Spare time is at a premium which means more eating out. We’re so lucky to live in Portland, home to Homegrown Smoker. This is one of my favorite vegan restaurants ever. Their barbecued tempeh is amazing, as are the bbq soy curls. And the sides really shine. The mac and cheese can’t be beat. Also great baked beans and collards. They even have hush puppies and killer wings. Pictured is a massive burrito stuffed with soy curls, baked beans and mac and cheese—lunch and dinner. Great staff and a casual vibe.
It was a fine dinning experience with people I have heard story's about but never seen till my visit. Exquisite time had by all! Food was pretty good even though I ain't even a vegan tasted really yummers, and yeah... overall, it's a very awesome sauce.
Would recommend even to my worst enemy fr it's just that good! Ahaha.. yeah...
Customer service!!!! This place had it tenfold. I wish I caught the person's name but very attentive, very kind, and just great. The food was good as well. The mocktail was tasty and even the trainee who made it made it turn out great. The BBQ plate was good and I don't even like tempeh. The salad with the Buffalo soy curls was good, the motz sticks were good. I will go again. 10 of 10
The Wings OH my goodness! Could eat those everyday, they are delicious! We had ours with BBQ sauce. The combo plate was great, we had the bbq chicken and beyond ribs. The Salted Bourbon Vanilla cheesecake was really good, and a great finish to our meal. The portions are generous, and so we brought home another whole meal. With so many options, and a friendly and helpful staff, we will be back soon to try out more of their menu.
As someone who isn't vegan but is lactose intolerant I have grown to love vegan foods. Truly one of the best locations I have ever been to. The buff burrito is simply amazing. I cannot recommend this place enough. So so so good. I will definitely be back!
Another cute gem on Lombard you've gotta try! All vegan menu focusing on barbecue and southern dishes. We ordered the Beyond ribs with Mac and cheese and loved it! I'm not normally impressed by Mac and cheese but this was very flavorful. There were so many delicious looking things on the menu it was hard to pick just one! Prices were reasonable for the amount of food you got. Staff was very helpful and the place was really clean and charming.
I've wanted to try Homegrown Smoker ever since 2015 when I was living in Seattle and heard how people would take trips to Portland just to eat here. I never ended up making it until now. Since I've been wanting to go here so long, I had *very* high hopes. And the experience lived up to the hype! The overall flavor and consistency is so much better than any other BBQ or soul food I've had in Seattle, SF Bay, and LA. So, to me, it's the best on the west coast. I recommend the tempeh ribs, they're seasoned to perfection. My second favorite "protein" is the smoked chick'n. I could eat that every day. The mac and cheese is very satisfying too. The burritos here are massive in size and just too dang good! The price of the food is also very reasonable considering how large & filling the portions are
Food we ordered was sooooo good. My 13yo son and I are vegans and its incredibly rare to find restaurants with options for us where we live. Decided to make this stop on our road trip as a special treat. The noodles for the Mac n cheese were slightly more overcooked than we would have liked, but flavor still good. All the staff were very friendly too. Wish we lived closer because we would be here all the time.
