    Atmosphere: Food truck with some tables outdoors to sit at Food: Tacos and Birria were tasty Price: Not outrageous but not cheap either Service: Standard Parking: Not sure. We walked over

    Quesadilla and signature Agua Fresca
    Joe N.

    Have had delivery from here twice. Best Birria I've found in Portland so far. They prepare birria in every way Imaginable. I've had their quesadilla, birria fries, keto tacos and birria en caldo. Everything was awesome. One keto taco was chicken and that was great too. Best rice I've had in a while. Only con was the quesadilla didn't come with consume which isn't the norm in other places. It can be ordered for an extra charge. 100% recommend for a birria fix. I also have to mention their cucumber lime aqua Fresca. That thing was amazing!

    Not impressed. First ever trying birria. Was really looking fwd to it and I know prices are going up but avocado sauce was not true avocado flavor, but like a"sauce". Portions were small. Maybe my expectations were just too much... sorry, just my opinion.

    I used to come here all the time but have stopped eating out as often. Unfortunate, the quality has dramatically declined. I come from a mexican household and my mom is an amazing cook, i would tell my friends that this spot was easily better than my mom's birria. Now, it's not only smaller portions but the birria is dry, bland, and there is barely any meat anymore. This would've been a 3 star review but I realized that the sauce and the lime was what really gave it the flavor. I understand smaller portions for the same price but why sacrifice quality as well? Consumers are more than happy to pay more if that means better quality food.

    Homemade cucumber.

    Many of my recent reviews are 3-Stars. Remember, in official Yelp-speak this means "A-ok", it doesn't mean bad. So I wondered if I'm no longer able to be wowed, that meh is the new norm. Thankfully, this cart is a good reminder that's not the case. Super friendly guy in the window. The breakfast burrito/breakfast sandwich is my most reviewed food on Yelp: the version from Birria PDX is in the upper echelon. It's not torso-sized, just perfect so there's room for something else from their eclectic menu. The cheese is a gooey white blend, the eggs NOT too omelette style, but not scrambled to the point where they ooze. Most significantly, the tortilla is soft and "wet" with hints of whatever was on the flat grill, but it's not oily. The Mulitas will be a go-to staple. Again, good functional portion for the fair price. It's so much more enjoyable eaten with utensils. You get a choice of hot or mild orange sauce, not the standard boring red or green. Do know it packs some heat. Their homemade drinks are very popular. Yet, as refreshing as it sounded, I didn't love the cucumber, but they still get props for presentation and portion. When it comes to Mexican food, I so appreciate that we're expanding our palette beyond old school tacos and burritos. Be careful of parking in the lot behind the cart as you're required to pay.

    As a California transplant here in Portland, the tacos at this place is just very meh. FOOD We got a selection of different type of birrieria tacos and pretty much all of them are just okay at best. It seems like they use the same meats for all type of item they sell and the meats are cooked pretty well. Unfortunately it's not seasoned that well so it was pretty bland. The tacos, quesotacos doesn't have that "wow" factor at all. In my opinion we're eating food for hungry sake. The birreria fries was just a plop of fries with good amount of meat and cheese. Really nothing wowed about that. SERVICE The service is pretty solid. The workers are very nice and the environment was super relaxed and chill! ALL IN ALL, decent taco truck but no "wow" factor at all. Kind of disappointing experience based on how good the Yelp ratings are. If you never tried this place, I would recommend but this would be my first and last time here :/. On top of that, the items are on the expensive side. The food honestly doesn't worth the price imo.

    Really seeing these trucks everywhere so it's about time I give them a try and glad I was to do so! They have everything birria here. As a first timer, we're recommended the PDX Sampler which consists of a Quesotaco, Vampiro, Mulita, and Birria Taco. As we're browsing their menu, a guy went up to the owner and blasted how much he enjoyed the plate, saying that it's one of the best things he's eaten in his life, so we couldn't skip this. And it's as good as he said. I loved the variety and the quality of each item was great. Personal favorites were the Mulita and Vampiro. They contrast but compliment each other with the Mulita being gooey and cheesy while the Vampiro crunchy. The plate also came with a serving of consume that was delectable but not overly heavy. We also tried the Crunch Wrap that was again a great invention. Crispy tortilla filled with beans, rice, birria, hot cheetos, even crispier tortilla, and cheese. Very fun to eat. The hot sauce went very well with eveything too. The drinks were all housemade and delicious as well. We got the refreshing Jamaica hibiscus drink and the creamy Horchata. To be frank, food was about a 4 for me but the person managing the truck pushed it to a 5. Super excited and friendly; they've got great energy explaining the different items. Go give them some love!

    Finally a Birrieria PDX location close in to downtown! No need to drive out to SE Division or 82nd, this new food truck location is right across the Hawthorne Bridge, corner of SE 7th and Madison. All your favorites available, including that incredible, rich, beef consume for dipping! Have to admit, the first time I ventured out to the east side to try this style taco - with cheese, fried, dip in both - my tastebuds were still clinging to the idea of a street taco and couldn't really make the adjustment. I just love a basic corn tortilla filled with carnitas and simply topped with chopped onion, cilantro and fresh lime. The fried version threw me off. After spotting this new location, I decided to give it another try, knowing exactly what I was getting - fried food and melted cheese! Ordered the quesabirria, a quesadilla loaded with that tender stewed beef, onions, cilantro and cheese deep fried. It was ooey ,gooey, deliciousness! Was able to park right on Madison in a free spot. They are located in a paid parking lot so that's also an option. To accommodate the weather, they set up a tent with several tables so you can eat there, which I recommend so that your food is nice and hot and the cheese all melty. Lots of options - the combo is a great first choice so you can try a few different versions of basically the same thing. Meat, cheese, tortilla - fried! Their hot sauce is actually hot, which I love! Can't say I would eat this on a regular basis as it's filled with a lot of things I eat in moderation, but for when that craving hits, I will hop over the Hawthorne Bridge and indulge.

    This review is based on their breakfast "crunch wrap". Zero crunch whatsoever just a soggy, greasy mess. Total bummer.

Both the fish and the prawns were cooked in a red sauce that was delicious! I meant to ask for blue corn tortillas but was so excited to find shrimp & fish tacos that weren't deep-fried that I forgot to ask for them. The regular corn tortillas were excellent, though, so it was not a bad mistake to make. I also had jamaica to drink and let me tell you... it was not made from a mix! It was dark, thirst-quenching, and perfectly made. Most jamaica is super sweet - this was not! I love the flavor of real hibiscus and this did not disappoint. My friends had chile relleno bowls and birria tacos, all of which was excellent. Their watermelon margaritas were tasty and refreshing! Our orders were taken by a helpful person at the cash register and the food was served quickly by a friendly server. The inside and outside areas were clean and tidy, with plenty of seating available at the outside tables. The outdoor seating area is under cover making it a good choice for both summer & winter dining. Definitely going on my "have to go back and try something else" list!

Such a small detail that makes a big difference. The Citrus Salad was super fresh, crisp, and delicious, which balanced everything out perfectly. I also tried the NA classic margarita and it was so refreshing. I loved the subtle touch of orange juice. Overall, such a lovely spot with amazing food, great vibes, and thoughtful details. I will definitely be back!

And to be honest, we were debating whether to get papi chulo's or not since it was a weeknight and we never eat out on weeknights. Safe to say, it was a mistake. They told her on the phone that our pick up order would be ready in 10 min. I walked in there 15 min later to get it, and it was not ready. The gentleman helping me out when I walked in looked like he had zero idea what I was talking about when I mentioned the pick up order name. He then immediately walked away from me and went to the register, and proceeded to ask me what I ordered and at this point, I knew he didn't know what it was and he said, "oh, it will be ready in 7 minutes." I ordered only 3 Breakfast burritos with no meat or anything in them - so, I thought 7 min wasn't too bad. Boy, was I wrong. It actually took 20 min (yes, 20 min) with me standing there by the table until the order was ready with no number or anything. I'll remind you all that there were legit 2 other customers in there and ONE CUSTOMER received their order before our 3 breakfast burritos were ready! That isn't right. I get sometimes food takes awhile, but both of them didn't apologize or anything while I was waiting. I've been to Muchas Gracious waiting for my order before, and they offered me a free drink because they felt bad they were having me wait 5 min! I don't accept it because I felt bad, but the point is, the lack of accountability and customer service during this experience was dreadful. And to be honest, the times I've been here, they haven't ever been too nice to me. After the order was finally ready, the lady working by the grill stuffed in at least 10 plastic containers of hot sauce into my bag. When we got home, most of them opened up and it left the biggest mess in the bag! Come on guys. This was just bad. Plus, my burritos were greasy anyways and tasted off. (See picture of the mess). I won't lie, there's plenty of other Mexican restaurants and establishments I can go to other than Papi Chulo's. Pretty disappointing experience overall and I can guarantee you I won't be going back anytime soon. I'd give the experience a 1/10 and the food a 2/10.
