    Pastor burrito bowl
    L W.

    Wow. Beyond expectations! I ordered the burrito bowl and not only was it beautiful and so delicious, but I got it for here and it was served in a real bowl! Love not having to throw away a container. Seriously satisfying, fresh tasting ingredients, I will definitely come back to try more. Also the cart pod has a bar cart and nice tables!

    Quesabirria tacos and burrito bowl

    This might be our new fave Mexican food cart! It's in the new pod called Cathedral Park Food Carts which has all around stellar options. The quesabirria tacos here are amazing! We also enjoyed the burrito and tostada. Everything is served on real plates which makes the eating experience lovely.

    Bean, cheese, and rice burrito.

    Everything they make is delicious. In my opinion, though, they make the best beans (both black and pinto) in Portland. I'm not vegetarian, but I often come here to get a bean cheese and rice burrito because the beans are so good!

    An unsuspecting plate of yum! Don't let the curb appeal deter you. Even I was a little nervous based on the location but they served one of the best plates of sopes I have ever had the pleasure of tasting! They would be my number 1 sope place if only al pastor was a protein option:)

    Consistently delicious. Highly recommended. I especially like their tacos Al Pastor. And my wife really loves their tacos Asada.

    We ordered the green enchiladas and carne asada tacos. Both items lacked flavor and unfortunately both items were cold.

    The food was pretty good. Carne asada was very salty. Quick and easy and the location was convenient.

It is the kind of place you instantly feel comfortable settling into. Everyone we interacted with was incredibly kind, and the service was genuinely great throughout. We ordered the Quekas with vegan chorizo and black beans and they were SO good, honestly a standout. The chips and guac were also a hit, and I loved that the guac was actually cold. 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!

Today my wife and I enjoyed scrumptious Tacotes, one chicken and one Bok Choy with house made salsa. Also, the Tetela de Requeson, maiz, beans and sprouting broccoli with a house made requeson - kind of like ricotta cheese - very beautifully plated and so delicious. Extra side of yummy and creamy black bean frijoles with sour cream, butter, tortillas. Instead of desert, the Mezcal, chile and lime was refreshing. Right now open for lunch Thursday through Sunday 10-3pm. No fixed menu, changes with what's fresh - the way chef Angel loves to cook respecting what is in season. Service and ambiance is friendly and knowledgeable about the food and its origin - another reason I love dining here so I learn about what I'm eating and how it was inspired. Yes, the food plated looks so good, I am inspired to dig in. There's a reason it was recognized early in its start by Eater, Portland Monthly and the Oregonian as one of the best restaurants in the city because foodies seek out and love to go where the food experience is special - especially the chef tasting menus in the past. Now I'm watchful and ready to go back and see what the chef Angel is serving up. What else is so special is Republica was a James Beard award nominee too!

    Hands down this is our favorite place in Portland. We've been back 4 times in a month…read more Amazingly fresh food Amazing flavor ! Friendly staff . Check it out !
