You can definitely get typical American breakfasts, such as the pancake plate that I had that came with two eggs and sausage and bacon, however, I had two bacon as was my preference. The phenomenonal! The child in our group chose the kids, pancakes and a side of fruit and was delighted with their choice. Clean, comfortable environment. Very good experience!

This family-owned restaurant is welcoming and cozy. The staff is attentive. The young man, who was…read moreour server, was in charge of every single table and waited on all customers with friendliness and care. The dishes were standard fare but freshly prepared...no warming trays here! I had the basic breakfast. Eggs and bacon were fine, but the "toast" was three thick baguette slices, barely toasted w/o butter, and jam that had an odd flavor. My friend's huevos rancheros was tasty, but a bit "soupy" because it was served in a bowl. I would not order the coffee again. I suspect that it is a "blend" of some sort (chickory?) and I did not enjoy the flavor. For $4.50 a cup, it should be better than this. The tab came to $50. w/tip. For a simple breakfast, I'm not sure the value is here.

This is another hidden gem located in a food truck pod in Downtown Portland. The owner was so…read morefriendly, 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!

We asked for most things on the side( our choice) Everything was bomb. Our special requests were followed to a T. Price good for what you got. My husband's carne asada fries were enormous and they used all actual cheese on the fries and no cheese sauces. Perfect and how it should be. Big helping of meat on it as well. I got a carne asada quesadilla it was fine. I hate when places put lettuce in the sour cream and guac and then need to pick thru the sour cream/guac thru the lettuce as a way to boost the largeness of the sides offered.

The perfect post-paddleboarding taco stop!…read more These street tacos were delicious! Stopped by this nearby food truck after paddleboarding with my dog, which was so nice and convenient. The service was quick, they offered to open my drink, and provided a buzzer while I waited. The flavor was on point, the tortillas weren't overly greasy, and the garnishes tasted fresh! Enjoyed the tacos with a beautiful lakeside view. You can park on the street or across the way, and it's also walkable from Horseshoe Lake. Definitely recommend!

Stopped by here on a Saturday for my lunch break, and there was some street/residential parking…read more The ambiance is pretty cool and laid back, with some music blasting. I ordered a carne asada burrito, and it was around $17. I was honestly disappointed with the size of the burrito, and unfortunately the ingredients inside were kinda overcooked. My buddy though, ordered a burrito Del Mar and seemed to love it. It seems like it's one of the more popular items, so I would try that next time. And don't forget to ask for sauce/salsa, when you're ordering take out! I didn't get any.

Really great and unique Mexican food. High level and unique versions of a lot of classic dishes…read more Smaller place, think there were maybe 6-8 tables? Plus a chef's counter seating area. Service was terrific. Wish I'd gotten our server's name so I could praise him here but he was friendly and interesting. Happy we came here.

Delicious food and warm service…read more The menu is small, but that's because it rotates frequently and is perfectly executed. We had the entire menu, and nothing was less than amazing. The ensalata was the stand-out, being their take on a Caesar. Our drinks were awesome, and everyone was incredibly sweet. Our server was excellent, and helped us confidently order each thing on the menu. His descriptions of the plates were phenomenal. Because of the changing menu, we will have to come back. We were sad there was no tres leches, but we ordered the carrot cake. It was a nice way to end the meal, and we left perfectly satisfied, not wanting more or feeling over-stuffed.

Located in Lil Dame or the former Beast/Ripe Cooperative space, the interior is a few two or four…read moretops but mostly communal tables - it'll be more awesome once they can use the outdoor dining area, it's pretty cozy in there now with boxes piled by the wall. This is elevated mexican food so you won't find any burritos here and many dishes are seafood, three dishes (empanditas and quesadilla, hongos/mushroom main) provide vegetarian options. The menu is two sections, appetizers to share (most easily shared 2 people per dish as they come with 2 tostaditas) and a shared larger dish section of a protein with accompaniments big enough for 2-4. Order from the wine menu by trusting your waitstaff - you can get half pours to try more from the well curated list. Dishes are flavorful and fun and you'll want to leave no drop of salsa behind.

Those who know... Know…read more We first got to know chef Lauro Romero's work at República, then at La Fondita, which filled a very special place for us as transplants from Mexico who missed the food from home and loved his elevated take on it. This new project replicates the magic but keeps the approachability that we loved so much about La Fondita, this time in an evening format. Expect a family style dinner with Mexican staples like cochinita and carne asada, elevated with exquisite salsas and handmade tortillas that have real nixtamalized heirloom corn. If you don't know what wine to order, ask--and you might get a chance to taste before you commit to the full glass. Or order a half glass and create your own wine pairing menu. You might think that a chef with a heritage like Lauro Romero might break the bank, but you would be wrong. We paid about $120 for multiple courses + desert for two. While I don't have a problem paying top dollar for good food, and Clandestino could easily be that kind of restaurant, I appreciate the philosophy of keeping elevated food relatively affordable. How else are Portlanders going to learn what the real thing tastes like? Of course, there are some small things they are still working out as a new restaurant. I would have liked to see some Mexican wines on the list, and it's unfortunate they only open Monday-Wednesday. But all in good time. Meanwhile, we will be taking advantage of the fact that it's still relatively easy to get a table and sharing this place with people we know will appreciate it for what it is.

Located at the Portland State Farmers Market, this is a great start to your day!…read more Very simple menu - all the burritos come with: - Eggs scrambled with hatch green chile, seasoned potatoes, and tillanook cheese in warm flour tortilla. You have the option of just eggs (as the protein), or you can choose to have it with bacon or sausage, or bacon AND sausage. As of March 2026, it starts at $8 for the basic; $9 for bacon or sausage; and $10 for both bacon and sausage. You'll know where they are by the crowd waiting for their burritos (or the line I suppose - when I went, there was no line but apparently there are times when there are lines). The burrito was good, but the salsa is the reason I would return. The salsa (both of them) are amazing!

First time I have ever been asked to leave. We were a group of 15 people. Mixed group, families and…read moresingles, kids and adults. No, kids did not run around or be loud, they were awesome. Yes we made a reservation. No we did not all sit at the same table, we were split up. Yes we told the server at the start we were separate checks. Server responded they can only check four ways. We said fine, and told the server who would be on which check before we ordered to try and make it easier to pay. No, it did not help. There is only one single stall bathroom. As soon as we finished paying, while we were standing and waiting for people to finish with the bathroom, a server came up and said, "not to be rude, but you have to leave." I get it, it is a small restaurant. We were a large group. But, I had to ask to order. I had to ask for our check when we were clearly all finished eating and just chatting. The checks were wrong, despite us telling the server at the start who was on each check. It took at least 10 minutes to get the checks all right. We left a 20% cash tip on the table, even though we were never asked if we wanted more drinks (some of us ordered cocktails), dessert, or really checked up on. Food and cocktails were good. Chips and salsa is $5 and while good, the portions were small if you expect to share with a table of four. Parking was easy.

Had dinner here with family on the last night of my Washington state vacation. It was a Sunday and…read morethe place was fairly empty. We were greeted and seated immediately and given chips and salsa, which were delicious. The decor was a bit eclectic with tin birds in the windows and a huge altar toward the back of the restaurant. The colors yellow and red figured prominently throughout the restaurant. I had two crispy tacos with shredded beef and a side of rice. It was very good; not too spicy or greasy. The food portion was just right. Others in our party had potato enchiladas and some sort of mole dish, and everyone seemed to like their food. If I lived in the area I would definitely return.

Tried this place for the first time…read more Hotel receptionist said she'd never eaten here. I should have taken that as a subtle recommendation. The good: plenty of parking, plenty of seating. Spanish speaking staff. Warm chips and good salsa. Decent rice and beans. The not so good: taco shells were not made on site, seem to be from a package. The margarita was not tasty, the mix was off and the house tequila was not so good. I could only finish half of it. Being my first time, I asked for her recommendation from the hostess on what to order? Instead of rising to the occasion, she immediately said I don't eat meat then proceeded to tell me about all the high dollar meat items. lol I could not take her recommendation to heart. I went with a somewhat safe bet of two crunchy tacos. The rice and beans were decent. The shells were crispy but flavorless. The salsa and chips were decent. The chips were warm. I finished the two tacos half the margarita and left. Would I go back here again? Probably not, with so many places to eat in this area, but I had to give it a shot. I overheard the table next to me complaining about their fajitas. The gentleman said "this is just Chuck steak" and I had to laugh out loud before I left. Disclaimer. I live in San Diego and judge Mexican food for its face value. I was not impressed. But maybe be i was there on an off night?
