While driving through the area, we were looking for a tasty lunch option. Chicali was a glorious…read morefind! There were several tasty options on the menu and everyone left happy. The menu is not marked as gluten free, so I took a gamble re: cross contamination. I ended up fine by the end of the meal, but ask your questions and proceed according to your own needs. We got the salsa flight (6 different salsas with house-made corn tortilla chips). Very good. I liked the pineapple and green salsa best. My husband liked the smoky adobo version. The kids shared the quesadilla from the adult appetizer menu and it was plenty for two. The adults had tacos. Lots of meat on the carne asada street tacos even though the shells are small. The other tacos are NOT small. Very generous portions for the quesabirria and the shrimp tacos. Everything tasted great and fresh. Make sure to squeeze the lime on the shrimp. *chef's kiss* Our server was friendly and quick. The decor in the place is colorful and cute. The margaritas looked great, but since we were driving, I had to pass this time. This place is a true gem.

We were given menus almost immediately and we ordered the salsa starter which came with 6 different types of salsa. These were amazing, I couldn't pick a favorite even if I tried. I also got a pineapple jalapeno margarita which was delish, and worked really well with the pineapple salsa. I went back and forth on what to order but eventually decided on 3 tacos. One of them, the soft flour taco, was a mistake (it was super bland) but that may have been on me for ordering it. The other two I ordered, the fish taco and al pastor, were great. The service throughout was great and our server made sure we had everything we ordered and more than enough water.

We had dinner here both nights that's we stayed in Mt. Hood! Esther was our server both evenings and she was wonderful and makes the best margaritas! You can't go wrong with The nachos and the carne asada burrito! My son had two small rocks that he left at the table, when we turned back to see if they were still there, another server recognized us and the first thing she said when she saw me was, "I have rocks" and she pulls them out of her apron and said, "I have kids and I know what rocks mean to them" that made our day!

My fiance planned a wonderful mountain getaway for us, and lucky for me- we had dinner reservations here. It was so chilly in December, We had a cold mountain day, and we bundled up to go to our dinner reservations and I have to say- I wasn't expecting much when I heard the name "Grill". I was thinking- burgers, fries, your typical post-ski grub. I was wrooong! We strolled into the coziest little restaurant and were greeted by the two lovely people working there. Felt like I very sweet family vibe. They steered us in the directions of the pasta dishes we ordered, and we had the Soup of the Day to start- I believe it was some kind of Tomato bisque and that hit the spot. The Hazelnut pasta was a hit for my fiance, and I loved that he got to try such a classic Oregon flavor in a pasta- how fun. My chanterelle ravioli filled me up so fast, I also loved being able to try chanterelles in this format. Both dishes felt very creative and full of so much Oregon pride! Delicious!

I do recall the experience as forgettable from the first time I went. This time I got the chile verde. I got it as a burrito. It's possible that I walked away before she could ask how I liked it. The burrito was wet but I think I might have preferred it the other way. Lots of tasty chunks of meat. Not sure how I'd order as a regular burrito though next time. My wife got the fish tacos. They were really juicy and not necessarily in a good way. The fish ended up with almost a ground meat texture. It tasted fine but the mouth feel was way off. Prices are on par with similar places. The have a nice little covered area too.

They said, "that will be 48 dollars at the window", as I pulled forward I was thinking they misheard me. I asked what the price was and they verified 48 dollars. I asked how much the enchiladas were and she said 35 dollars! That was for three cheese enchiladas, so I asked how much for 2 and she said 25 dollars. That's 10 dollars per enchilada! I canceled my order and kept the burrito for the wife. I praised this place for how good their food is but not at the cost of half a tank of gas. So I guess they can cater to the liberal elites coming from Portland to pollute MT. Hood with their Subaru's. As for my poor working class money I'll stick to the food truck in Boring or Sandy.
