Tapalaya was a Vietnamese-Cajun restaurant owned by chef Anh Luu in the Kerns neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, United States. The restaurant closed in 2019,[1][2] and was replaced by a vegan restaurant called The Sudra.[3]

History

Tapalaya opened in northeast Portland in 2008.[4][5] In her role as head chef, Luu "rebooted" the restaurant's menu in 2014,[6] then purchased Tapalaya in 2017.[1][7] She competed on Chopped in 2015,[8] and her "Chicken, Shrimp, and Andouille Sausage Gumbo" recipe was included in Portland Cooks, Recipes from the City’s Best Restaurants & Bars (2017).[9]

The restaurant was burgled in February 2019,[10] and participated in Portland Dining Month.[11] It was included in the Portland Mercury's "100 Portland Happy Hours: Northeast" list in 2019.[12]

Tapalaya closed in 2019 when Luu relocated to New Orleans.[13] The Oregonian's Michael Russell included Tapalaya is his list of "Portland's most painful restaurant closures of 2019".[14]

Reception

In 2018, The Oregonian ranked Tapalaya one of North and Northeast Portland's 40 best restaurants.[4]
