Editorial fromThe enticing aroma wafting across the parking lot is all the advertising needed by this take-out barbecue joint. Pork and beef ribs are king here, but the tender chicken or chopped pork sandwich also make good choices. Complement the…

Too good to pass up – There is an excellent food selection at Cannon's Rib Express. With ribs, chicken & fish available all taste buds are satisfied. There are also a wide variety of side dishes to choose from. I've NEVER had better ribs, salads and peach cobbler. I make a point of going to Cannon's everytime I visit Portland.

Smelled good... – You pull up and the smell draws you right in. The menu is great. The taste didn't measure up, unfortunately. The sauce was hot at the expense of flavor, and I thought it was pricey for outdoor, picnic table eating.

Can't Beat 'Em – The ribs here are OUTSTANDING! Once a week or so after work we grab a rack of pork ribs with HOT sauce and MMMMMMM...what a treat! The sides are ok and we've had hotter sauces (which we LOVE), but for a take-out place you can't do any better than Cannon's.

Best ribs in pdx – Down home style. Good pork ribs. Greens are good. Outdoor seating OR to-go. What you see is what you get. It ain't fancy, but it is good stuff.

9 out of 10 – When you get out of your car you are blasted with the smell of savory bbq... So right off the bat your taste buds start working and your stomach starts talking. I had the bbq pork ribs which were really good. I chose the medium spiced sauce which was perfect. It was not too hot and not too sweet like some other places. The meet was good.. there was a lot on each bone and they give you about 6-7 ribs per person. You also get two side dishes,, Definetly get the colored greens and bbq beans,, but skip the corn on ... read more

pull your car over.... – ....the next time you pass this place. i was heading into four seasons to buy milk and veggies and as i got out of the car, i go a huge wiff of their bbq and suddenly found myself in line. got the $3.50 pork sandwich and couldn't stop eating it (as i had intended to eat it at home). so tender, sauce is to die for and the quality of meat is 5 star. treat yourself right and eat this bbq and DO NOT judge the food by the small little building: great things come in small packages !!!

One of my favorites – As someone critical of most Portland eating establishments, it's nice to find a gem. The brisket is top notch, and the sauces have a nice balance of sweet and spicy. The wait can be insane, usually due to disorganization within the kitchen. On more than one occasion did we witness employees "arguing" about an order mishap. There's too many people in the kitchen, and one person both takes and packages orders - very inefficient. However, they're usually friendly. Prices are a bit too high. Coming from Atl... read more
