  ColumbianTalk.com - Serving Clark County, Washington
Pambiche is a Cuban joint, a hole in the wall in a neighborhoody area on the northeast side of Glisan.
On the inside, Pambiche is a little cramped, and a loud mix of colors, but it smells so good in the room that everyone seems to be in a good mood.
Overall, Pambiche’s bustle can sometimes be frustrating; when it’s crowded, there’s really not a lot of room to move, but in the summertime the outdoor benches create an extra dining area.

Overall, Pambiche is a nice change of pace to have so close by.
My boyfriend and I first visited Pambiche not long after it opened, and while we were impressed by the food, the service left much to be desired.
Maybe it is their nature, but when I think of Pambiche, I forget all about a rather heavenly cappuccino-based dessert and a completely forgettable main course, and I remember the lead weight of the plaintains in my upper chest, threatening to sink me among my ecstatic companions.

For years I went to Pambiche and never ordered the carrot cake because it didn't sound as sexy as the other offerings, but now that I have tried it, I weep for all those lost opportunities to eat more cake.
I went to Pambiche the other night with friends from out of town, and we were confronted with the typical 1.5 hour wait (so we ended up going to Taqueria Nueve instead).
My long-standing complaint with Pambiche is how frickin' close the tables are to each other (I've had times there where I was literally closer to the person at the next table than to the person sitting across from me), and there seemed to be more space.

Pambiche is a small, colorful, and very popular Cuban restaurant at NE 28th & Glisan.
One of their famous desserts is always available at happy hour prices, but we were in luck: Valentine’s Day happens to be Pambiche’s anniversary, and they were offering desserts for free.
We both had something delightful that went by a crazy name I can’t remember, but it was made of tender wafers with crispy edges layered with a bittersweet chocolate sauce, passonfruit cream, and whipped cream.

 New Members Dinner @ Pambiche - MEETinPORTLAND Make New Friends
Pambiche is a fabulous Cuban restaurant located at the end of 28th Street's "restaurant row." From the website: "The cuisine of Cuba, commonly termed comina criolla, is the result of European influence on New World conditions.
With roots not only in European but also in African and Indigenous Caribbean cooking, Cuban Creole cuisine is a seasoned combination of tropical elements." From personal experience: The banana salsa and hot sauce on the empanadas are a killer combination, and the lemonade served with a stalk of sugarcane is especially yummy.
Please be aware that Pambiche does not take reservations so we may have a bit of a wait for a table.

The Pambiche is derived from the Dominican rhythm merengue, and its roots can be easily traced back to 1916, the year that marked the first United States intervention in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Most of the American soldiers, who came for Palm Beach, were tempted by the intensity of merengue, but could not dance to the fast tempo.
Over the years, a new expression was adopted, and whenever people talked about this particular style it was simply referred to as Pambiche.

More Info: "Pambiche" refers to a Caribbean dance, a slow kind of merengue, and you'll fittingly want to move slowly after a filling, sensuous meal at this friendly cafe that caps the northern end of East 28th Avenue's restaurant row.
