Mekong Bistro

Mekong Bistro is a Cambodian restaurant at 8200 NE Siskiyou St in Portland, OR, offering a place to gather over dinner, enjoy a late-night meal, or meet for a special event. The restaurant has a 4.4-star rating from 438 reviews. Guests describe the food as delicious and the service as welcoming and professional, making Mekong Bistro a local option for diners who value a lively, comfortable setting as much as what is on the table.

Customer favorites in the reviews include pad see ew, praised for its satisfying char, and pad kee mao. One diner called the pad see ew a personal favorite, while another enjoyed the pad kee mao. Reviews also single out the “crazy chicken” as especially tasty. These comments offer a practical starting point for guests browsing the menu, while leaving room to discover other dishes. The restaurant is listed as Cambodian, and the dishes mentioned by diners reflect the range of experiences guests report enjoying here.

Mekong Bistro is also more than a dinner stop. Guests have visited to watch live music, including a performance by the band Sound Bucket, and describe the experience as a success, with great food and service alongside the show. The restaurant has also hosted events with family-style catered dinners served to each table. One event guest appreciated being able to taste many dishes in one meal and noted the planned menu and professional wait staff. For celebrations or group gatherings, that shared dining format may be especially appealing.

The atmosphere comes across as spacious and event-friendly: one reviewer described the venue as huge and suitable for events, while another called it a classic place to enjoy good food. A customer also mentioned a juice stand run by a child that the restaurant supports, connected with a project to build a library in Cambodia. That detail offers a glimpse of a community-minded effort noted by a guest, without taking away from the restaurant’s central draw: a meal enjoyed together. Mekong Bistro may suit families, friends, groups attending an event, and diners looking for a place that stays open late.

The listed hours are Monday through Thursday and Sunday, 4 p.m. to midnight, and Friday and Saturday, 6 p.m. to midnight. Since hours can change, check current details before heading out. Whether you are stopping in for pad see ew, trying the “crazy chicken,” meeting friends, or planning a group dinner in northeast Portland, Mekong Bistro brings together Cambodian restaurant dining, a spacious setting, and guest-reported options for music and events at its NE Siskiyou Street address.
