creative dishes and drinks - Edit
i tried the thai basil tofu/tempeh/soy curl and the cauliflower curry dish and really enjoyed both. also tried the rangoons, which were one of my favorites before i went vegan so i was so excited to try a vegan rendition. highly recommended.

Really creative menu - Edit
I've eaten here maybe three times, and have really enjoyed Norah's creative menu! Everything has been super flavorful — particularly the cauliflower curry and the bibimbap.

Order everything - Edit
Food can be a touch rich, but everything is worth getting and I've been surprised that some of the menu items I originally skipped over turned out to be some of my favorites

We got there as they were opening and there was a line already. That’s when we knew we camd to the right place. I loved everything about the place. The food, the staff, the flavors. I can’t wait to return to Portland to go there again.

Omg wow - Edit
We came to Portland for the weekend just to enjoy flavors like this! Coconut linguine is amazing with lots of mushrooms (did not skimp) and papaya salad so tasty and fresh!! Happy happy happy!

Amazing food! - Edit
We had the spicy basil dish, the coconut mushroom linguini, and the samosas. It was all absolutely delicious! I was particularly in love with the gluten free samosas made with a masa shell. The flavors were absolutely divine and the dipping sauce took it up another level. Highly recommend!

Such flavorful food! - Edit
All of the food items we ordered wowed us with flavor! We had the nachos, then the potatoes, then the see ew and spicy basil dishes. We also had some good cocktails and Thai iced tea, although honestly the food was the star and next time we'd probably pick simpler drinks to focus on the food. The food came out really fast, too. Unfortunately they were out of the mango sticky rice - next time! The staff were super helpful when we had difficulty ordering using a gift card, even though they were really busy.

We came here to celebrate vegan month - Edit
We were delighted by the Thai nachos option they had as a promotion. Then, we kept adding items to the table and none of them disappointed. They were creative, sweet, garlicky and highly stimulating.

Get the mushroom linguine - Edit
There is a reason why there are so many pictures of this dish on here! It is shockingly good. Way better than the sum of its parts. I was a little disappointed by the “pad Thai nachos” (everything was fresh-from-the-refrigerator cold somehow?) and papaya salad. Also, ignore the self-service waitlist machine at the front and make sure you make contact with a server instead. It was clear from this visit that the staff don’t actually monitor the darn thing and you will be sitting there waiting for a text message telling you your table is ready while other people who come in after you are seated😒

😕 Meh - Edit
Food was fine, but greasy. Dishes were too familiar. The nacho thing was a creative use of familiar foods. (I didn't order it and don't remember the name)

More than usual suspects - Edit
We picked up the finger potatoes and coconut mushroom linguine to go. Our order came out on time and fast. It was our first visit and decided to stay for a cocktail and sit outside. Cocktails were fun and tasty, and the people watching was good. They obviously do a great business on take away and dine in.
Read moreOur dishes were great. We really liked the sauce on the potatoes and there was a nice balance of noodles to mushrooms in the linguine. I would order both again.
Pros: Unique choices , Outside and inside dining

Good food, service okay - Edit
The food and drinks were good. The flavors were on point and the spiciness was as specified on the menu.
Read moreOrdering was difficult. We were told to use the qr code at the table to place our order. That was fine, but then we had to pay at the end at the end of the order. The screen kept spinning. An employee watched us do the entire process, then said they'd take our order. I felt that that was a huge waste is everyone's time.
Two of our meals came out together, mine took longer.
Everyone was 2/3 done by the time mine arrived.
Pros: Very tasty
Cons: Timing of food , Ordering process

Interesting Food, Not Stellar - Edit
The food was good, and there were lots of flavors, but not spectacular. Perhaps because we ate here the night after Jade Rabbit, which was a lot better. Also, the pricing here is a bit off-putting and not welcoming. Not only did we have to submit a credit card to make a reservation, after we ordered we had to pay upfront. Very strange, and not at all welcoming. Maybe they have a lot of people skip out on bills? We couldn't understand it.
Read morePros: Interesting food.
Cons: Pre-pay for reservation and after ordering

Five giant stars! - Edit
Norah is a vegan Thai dream come true!
Read moreWe were warmly greeted when we arrived and found a carafe of water waiting on the table.
The space is clean and comfortable with open beamed ceilings and beautiful hanging plants throughout.
My husband has been vegan for six short months and he loved it so much we had to go back two weeks later! The second time we took Omni friends and they said how crazy they found it that the best Drunken noodles they had ever had were vegan!
We ordered Drunken noodles, See Ew, Bibimbap and Pad Thai. All the dishes were raved over.
Fresh and piping hot, perfectly seasoned delicious!!
The only thing we didn't care for was that the ordering is a Q code and done on your phone.
We found it clunky.
Norah is amazing and sure to become one of our favorites!
Pros: Food, Food, Food
Cons: Ordering is clunky

Loved it! - Edit
Had an early dinner here and ordered the samosa for app; the coconut mushroom linguine and the cauliflower curry for mains; and the taro rice cake for dessert. Everything was so tasty and richly flavored that I can't wait to come back to try the rest of the menu! Portions were generous to boot. I really liked this system whereby you just order and pay on your phone without having to wait for your designated server to come around. I wish more restaurants were like this.

Artistic, healthy, and delicious! - Edit
The space is beautiful. The dishes are artfully presented. Prices are quite reasonable given the obvious love and care that goes into their ingredients and creation. Fun, artisan cocktails to top it all off! I didn’t try one this time because I was here for lunch, but I will surely be back! I want to try every dish on the menu! I am thrilled to have found Norah!

Flavor unreal - Edit
We got the norah roll, samosa, rainy rangoon, see ew, iced coffee and hibiscus like soda. Every single thing hit so hard. Each of the starters came with a different type of dipping sauce. All of them where insanely flavorful and mouthwatering. This place is now in my top 3 restaurants

Okay wow - Edit
This was the last restaurant on our Portland weekend (vegan food tour/birthday) and Norah hit it out of the park. We had the drunken noodles and bibimbap and I was honestly blown away. The drunken noodles were delicious and very spicy, plus they do not skimp on the soy curls 😍. The bibimbap was very flavorful and yummy. Cute ambiance inside too. Can’t wait to come back!

Delicious - Edit
I finally ate at Norah last night and the man who brought me there, a non-vegan, said it was the best vegan food he's eaten. I'm very anti-tempeh due to texture and taste and I tried some of his. Ohmydog, do they know how to make tempeh delicious to me
Read morePros: Delicious!
