Ruthie's is a restaurant in Portland, Oregon.

Description and history

Ruthie's operates from a food cart at the intersection of 36th Avenue and Division Street in southeast Portland's Richmond neighborhood. The menu, described by Eater Portland as a "modern spin on Mormon food", has included funeral potatoes, Jell-O, rockfish sliders, a pork roll, a salad with corn, sheep cheese, popped sorghum, and tomato, as well as biscuits, jams, pickles, and desserts. For Valentine's Day, Ruthie's has served shokupan with dino nuggets, ranch powder, and caviar.

History

Collin Mohr and Aaron Kiss opened Ruthie's in October 2020. Named after Mohr's Mormon grandmother, the restaurant has sourced food from the local farms Farrah Farms, Vibrant Valley, and Wild Roots. In 2022, Ruthie's was featured episodes of the Netflix travel documentary series Somebody Feed Phil as well as Street Food.
