Thrive Sauce And Bowls

The food was amazing, the staff were extremely nice, great conversations. I would definitely go here on a weekly basis if I lived in portland. The Combination of flavors the vegetables were fresh crisp. The best was the lemon dressing/sauce. Thank you for having a restaurant that is so delicious, gluten free . Please keep up the great work and will spread the word.

The journey to a 5 star rating from me is not based on one experience. The first experience, about two months prior, was not good. The food was either flavorless or just plain inedible. We picked at our food and no one asked why. At time to pay, I dished out almost $50 for a meal that was carried away without comment on why the plates were full. We left, got in the car, and sat there for a moment stunned at how bad the food was. We drove away still talking about it and I decided to turn around and go back. On return, I asked to speak with the manager (I don’t even have THAT haircut), and spoke with her outside as to be private. I told her all of our concerns. She was very concerned and apologetic. Surprisingly she refunded the entire meal, except for the tip, which I insisted remain since the server still worked. She took it a step further and gave us a 50% off gift certificate and invited us to please come back and give them another chance. After two months, we did. And it was fantastic. The ingredients were fresh, the sauces were full of flavor, the drinks refreshing. It was a complete 180 from the first experience. I had the Kale-Tahini salad with tempeh, which had the perfect amount of sauce that tasted like a real Caesar dressing. The fried olives where a delightful and surprising addition that added a lot of dimension, and the kale was crisp and crunchy. The Farmhouse salad was packed with a rainbow of fresh and delicious veggies and a tasty lemon dressing. I’ll definitely be back. The manager handled our first experience with grace and perfect customer service, corrected the situation, invited us back with a promise of a better experience and half off, and delivered. This is how you run an establishment.

We had the Thrive crew come out to cater my sisters rehearsal dinner. I could not be more impressed! Ericka, Sterling, Remi and Chuck, THANK YOU! Not only was the food and presentation fantastic, your crew was fun and fit in as part of the party! I recommend you all for any event! I look forward to seeing my drink on the menu! “Kira’s lemon drop!” ;-)

Delicious! When you can't eat gluten it kinda feels like menus are tricky to navigate, and even if they have a gluten free selection, you never know if there's contamination....but not here. Everything on the menu is gluten free and delicious. Today was my first time in and I loved it. I had the Se Asian Fried Chicken with asparagus and curry. The chicken was nice and crispy on the outside and was tender on the inside. My friend ordered the Cobb Salad that was equally delicious. We also tried the homemade sodas which were great and not too sweet. And I ordered a Thai Coconut yellow curry rice bowl to go for my husband who consumed half of it like he'd never eaten before and said it was amazing and he was able to save half for another meal! The portions are great, the flavors are spot on, and the service was good. Thank you for making great gluten free delicious food, I will be back!

A great addition to the NE Fremont restaurant scene! Thrive is a great combination of healthy fare with tasty, filling portions. The price point is also solid given what you're getting. I love the pork shoulder and we've also hired Thrive to cater an event - which is their specialty. They are beyond professional and I try to get in there at least once a month to see what specials they have. If you go for lunch, make sure to get there at 11:45 a.m. Otherwise you could be waiting a while since it's a very popular noon crowd for the business people on Fremont.
