Hapa PDX (also known as Hapa PDX Ramen and Whiskey and Hapa Ramen) is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.

Description

The restaurant serves Hawaiian-Japanese ramen, including tonkotsu, shoyu, miso, and shaka broth varieties. The G-Special is a pork belly-based ramen broth with pork belly, spinach,[1] sprouts, and shiitake. According to Seiji Nanbu of Eater Portland, "Hapa's ramen is meant to be durable for long car rides home, with a thick and squiggly proprietary noodle recipe."[2] Hapa has also served poke, wakame salad,[3] and other snacks.[4] The drink menu has included Japanese whiskey, bourbon, and rye, as well as Japanese and Oregon sakes.[5]

History

Owners Michael and Sarah Littman launched Hapa as a food cart in 2013.[5] Hapa operated from the Tidbit Food Farm and Garden pod on Division Street in southeast Portland as of 2017.[6][7] When the pod closed in 2017,[8] the business relocated to Foster Road and 73rd.[9]

In 2019, owners announced plans to open a brick and mortar restaurant on Gladstone Street in southeast Portland's Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood, in a space which previously housed Shut Up and Eat.[5][10]

In 2022, the Littmans announced plans to open a second restaurant called Hapa Kauai at the Shops at Kukui‘ula in Kauai, Hawaii. The larger restaurant will have a slightly different menu but will also specialize in ramen. Abigail Cox, general manager of the Portland restaurant, has joined the ownership team.[11][12]

Reception

Food cart in 2013

Time Out Portland's Jen Woo included Hapa in a 2019 list of "the best food trucks in Portland to get your grub on."[1] Alex Frane of Eater Portland wrote in 2019, " Hapa Ramen might be my new favorite ramen restaurant in town, with a much more limited menu and a smaller space than Afuri, but rich, delicious ramens and an excellent whisky selection."[13] The website's Seiji Nanbu included the business in a 2022 list of "where to find knockout ramen in Portland and beyond".[2] Nathan Williams included Hapa in a 2023 overview of "where to eat and drink" in the Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood.[14]

In 2021 and 2022, Willamette Week said, "Lots of food carts make the leap to brick-and-mortar, but rarely is the effect quite so sexy as it is at Hapa... [T]his is very much an izakaya, and drinks are as much the attraction as the soup: The ginger ale-sake highball is worth traveling across town for."[15][16]
