  This place is unreal!
  The food is beyond delicious.
  I was so excited to finally make it over here to check this place out. The chicken skewers are to die for!
  Literally the best bbq chicken I've ever had.
  I actually came on her right now to see if they were open so i could head over but they're closed today . So why not leave a review for them instead right?!
  The service is fantastic and the guy working there likes Metal. Which is double points in my book.
  I highly recommend the lavender lemonade , chicken skewers and the salad.
  Good gawd I wish they were open today lol
  That's okay rest up friends enjoy your day off and I'll see you soon enough for those amazing chicken skewers.

  Legit thinking about moving to east Portland to make this a regular dinner option for us.
  We LOVE Jurassic Cart!
  We eat a primarily Keto diet and while Portland has many more options compared to other major cities, its still refreshing to go to a place that makes it so easy.
  
  Everything is marked with a K that is considered Keto; and W30 for Whole 30, V for Vegan, etc.. The guy who takes your order will tell you around how many net carbs in case you are trying to keep your carbs under a certain amount.
  
  The first time we went I wanted to try a little of everything and got the Large Tricerabox with a steak curry lime skewer, half a dino egg. and it comes with 3 sides!
  I got the salad, and two sides of cauliflower rice. I order the rice loaded with goat cheese, bacon and sriracha-THE ONLY WAY TO ORDER IT IMO! Its killer!
  
  The winner of all things I have tried is the dino egg. Its a grilled avocado that has a sticky cauliflower mixture with a mango dollop on top. They pre-dice the avocado in the peel so its easy to eat.
  
  When we ordered the large tricerabox, we were stuffed and had a full meal leftover for later.
  
  The next time we ordered the small with 1 full dino egg and 2 sides as we were running errands after and STILL had plenty of leftovers.
  
  I almost forgot to mention that they include a toy dino with every plate. They have water and a basket full of toys to the right of the ordering window which I have seen some really happy kids play with.
  This place is a gem and I really feel the owners created this place with love.

  Let me start by saying - the naming here is phenomenal. And the concept is great too. I very much enjoyed the dinosaur in my food, which is now at home in my air plant.
  
  I feel like I'm not in the majority, but the food just didn't hit it for me. I didn't think the salad flavors sounded like a great combo and I don't like sweet potatoes, so I stuck with a roll and cauliflower rice for side. Both were meh. I did not finish them. The rice was kind of bland, which I guess rice tends to be, but there was no extra sauce or anything left from the skewer to use on the rice. The roll had too much of an oily garlic spread on top for me to enjoy more than the bottom.
  
  Still gets three stars because my chicken skewer was great. Good size, good flavor, cooked well. I would come back here just for a bunch of those. And their yerbe mate, which I wish they had a larger size because it was phenomenal.

  So this month my fiancee and I decided to start the Keto diet. Needless to say it has been very difficult to find good food options in the Portland area that accommodate the restrictions of Keto. Jurassic Cart is very accommodating to all kinds of diet restrictions including Paleo, Keto, and Whole 30. The Dino Egg was unique to say the least, but did not lack in flavor. The cauliflower rice was cooked perfectly and did not lack in flavor. We got our rice with whipped goat cheese, hot sauce and bacon with a side salad and bone broth. Neither one of us left the cart hungry. Parking is a little difficult, but if you drive around you should be able to find decent street parking. They also have some drinks including juices specifically for Keto. While the flavor of the one I had was good, I much preferred my fiancee's and will definitely be back to order it again soon.

  Wow guys you know what you're doing here! Paleo never tasted so good. I got a steak kabob, salad and sweet potato mash. Everything was so flavorful, the prices are good too, I got a lot for $10. I didn't want my meal to be gone when I was done. I will definitely be back here!
