This is another hidden gem located in a food truck pod in Downtown Portland. The owner was so friendly, and we could tell that he puts great care into presenting and making his dishes. We ordered a burrito and the taco de birria. This was the largest burrito I've ever seen, and not a meal for one! It definitely uses a custom made tortilla and you can't pick this thing up without making a mess, so I opted for fork and knife for my half, and my partner picked it up and didn't put it down until it was done. It's packed full of rice, meat, refried beans, cheese and sour cream. The portions were so generous, and it was quite tasty. In my option the meat could have been more heavily seasoned to stand up against all the other milder/calming flavours. The taco de birria was also enormous, was more like a quesadilla and it was cut into quarters, and topped with onions, cilantro and sour cream. The meat was flavourful and tasted so good dipped into the consommé. Will definitely be back again the next time I'm in town. Definitely give this a try if you haven't already. Generous portions and great service, and don't forget to bring lots of napkins! read more

Possibly the best taco spot in Portland! Lorenzo and Quan started their food truck 3 months ago, and I feel like it's still a hole in the wall! My boyfriend took me here yesterday and we tried the asada, chicken, and pork tacos. We were contemplating on getting the consomé soup since we didn't want the large tub that it came in, and they offered us each a small container of it to try for free. My boyfriend insisted on paying, but Lorenzo (one of the owners) told us that his main concern isn't to make money, he just wants people to eat good food and leave there smiling they're such sweet people! My bf made sure he gave him a big tip for his kindness and generosity. The tacos are loaded with fresh pico and the meat was very flavorful. The pork would have to be my fav, then asada, then chicken. The chicken was dry and not as flavorful since it was all white meat. The sauce was also way too spicy for both of us, and I wish I would've asked for a mild sauce instead (although I'm not sure if there are other sauce options since I don't remember being asked to pick). Aside from those minor things that could be easily adjusted next time, I have no complaints! I definitely coming back here to try their other items. read more

We're visiting from California and this is BY FAR the BEST food we've had during our stay in Portland. The owner is the NICEST man, he offered us free taquitos while we waited for our food and gave us complimentary sodas as we were heading out. The burrito was massive, both it and the taco were SUPER YUMMY! I'm not usually one to leave a Yelp review, but Frida's Kitchen is the exception for its delicious food and amazing service. read more

The BEST food cart experience I have ever had. Probably best service I've ever had, period. We met Lorenzo and he said "everything is good!" He gave me some samples and talked to me about his vision and passion for making great food, so fresh and tasty! He was so kind and welcoming and everything that I had was delectable. I got carne asada tacos and they were packed with meat and fresh Pico. I had asked for like 4 tacos and he was like "these are big tacos, not like other places, you can eat 4?!" I settled for two and hardly finished because i was so full. It was perfect. Everything was fresh and I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best I've ever had. I will be dreaming of the fresh chunky guacamole and fresh tortilla chips until my next visit. I will be telling all my friends! This guy cooks with his heart. I also love the rapport he has with his customers. I heard a few regulars stopping by and he was lovely with them and they all said they loved their food! read more
