Hablo Tacos

If you live in Bend or are just passing through, Spork is an absolute must-visit. The interior has…read morea cool, modern vibe that perfectly matches their eclectic Asian-Mexican fusion menu. The restaurant runs on a highly efficient counter-service model: you wait in line to order, and a server coordinates whether you want to grab a table inside or out on the patio. Once we were seated, our food came out incredibly fast. I had the Spicy Pork Noodles, and my partner got the Yellow Curry loaded with shrimp and pork belly. Both main dishes were packed with flavor, and the crisp cucumber salad was the perfect side to share. I also ordered a hard cider to wash it down. Everything was delicious from start to finish.

Just enough spicy without being too much. Ordering at the counter seemed interesting to me due to the layout of the dining room, but the staff knew exactly what they were doing and were able to direct us to a seat easily! Our food and drinks also came in a timing manner. I really appreciated that we could see all the way back into the kitchen and there was transparency between the kitchen and the consumers. The bar looked gorgeous and I would definetly like to sit there next time for the vibes. I also loved that they provided self-serve boxes, napkins, and utensils but still had a sign asking patrons to be concious of how much they're using. The overall flow between ordering, self serve, and dining was super efficient and nice! Can't wait to come here again!

Loved that all the food is homemade including the tortillas. We ordered the carne asada and chipotle tacos along with an order of eloté. We could not have been more pleased. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating and we grabbed a table under a big tree. The menu offers some great selections. I was tempted to try the chilaquiles but tacos always get me. Carmen's Famous Tortilla Soup looked really tasty as well, so it looks like I have a reason to return. Alcohol including tequila is also served along with refreshing aqua frescos. Our food came out fairly quickly and it was hot and ready to eat. Tacos were juicy and the eloté although not the best I have ever had still provided good flavor. Location is easy to find although parking was tight. Perhaps it was the time of day we came and it was a weekend. Service was quick and efficient. Ambiance was perfectly beautiful sitting amongst the trees. I would recommend should you find yourself in Bend stopping here for a little bit of Mexico!

They are definitely pumping out some of the most delicious tacos you will find in all of Bend, if not all of Oregon. We come to Bend a couple of times a year, and the satisfying pairing of Sancho's and Crux is worth a visit every single time- even when there's snow on the ground. In the summertime, this pace is cranking, and if you can manage getting in a line that's less than 20 minutes consider yourself lucky. Tip the team working there in kind, as I generally see them working their butts off. I've tried every one of their tacos, and though it's like picking your favorite child, I'd have to go with the Oaxacan cheese and green chile or the pork carnitas. Both are moist, super flavorful and have some real wow factor. That mushroom one is pretty stellar too. With 3 coming in at less than 10 bucks, you can try a few. Go enjoy! I'm jealous.

Didn't actually get to try the tacos we ordered because we waited so long by the time we went to the counter we found our tacos were cold from sitting there for 30,+ min. 6 tables filled at the time, so pretty slow...No one "texted us when the order was ready" also kept the 30% gratuity.

She was a huge fan! I brought her back two more times before she went home which was definitely not in my bingo card for her visit. Lucy's is unassuming. It's not some fine dining restaurant. There's a counter where you order your food and they call out your order when it's ready. What you can't see from the street is the salsa bar. Holy smokes it's fresh and delicious. They have all the condiments you'd expect from traditional Mexican street foods and hot chips just sitting there. The fish tacos my mom had? They were delicious! I ordered her two thinking they were tiny. No, they were huge so I had to eat one for her. Poor me! I've had the asada on multiple occasions and it's delicious every time. For the money, the portions are huge. You definitely get your money's worth. From what I can tell, there's usually only one person manning the grill and she pumps out food so hot and delicious all the time. They even serve menduo (Mexican hangover stew) which a lot of places in LA only do on weekends. I can't say good enough things about Lucy's. It's what I think of when anyone ask about authentic Mexican cuisine in Bend.

The chicken was tender and well-seasoned (my fav of the three). The asada was decent, but def not my fav in town. The carnitas was a bit of a letdown unfortunately. It was hard fried to the point where almost every piece was crunchy. I like bits of crispy pork, but also like tender, juicy bits. The carnitas was also pretty salty, almost to the level of jerky. Overall, the food and service were pretty good but didn't leave me wanting to rush back.
