What a gem of a Mexican restaurant! From their stacked salsa bar to their friendly service to their delicious potato tacos and everything in between, definitely don't sleep on this Mexican restaurant! Clearly, my favorite were the potato tacos, easily 10/10. We also ordered the carne asada fries- not your typical asada as this was not flank steak but grounded which was odd at first but still tasted really good.. Molten chili shrimp plate lol, super tasty but leaves your mouth on fire after every bite but we still cleaned the plate! And last but not least, the quesobirria tacos, flavorful, moist, oily, all the things... Next time we're in the area- this restaurant will be one of my first thoughts to dine at! Prices are also reasonable. Portions aren't huge but enough. I'm currently in pregnant status soooo iykyk lol La Real is definitely a repeat restaurant! read more

SO GOOD; opens at 6 AM!! Came in at 8:45 ish and had a steady stream of customers. Amazing tasting food, great salsa selection. Wished I had several stomachs to try everything but alas I'll come back. Super clean and cheerful interior. They had stockings up and Christmas tree, made everything feel very welcoming and lovely. And very friendly service. Definitely coming back! read more

Make sure before you call and order ahead you know if you're going to the food truck or the restaurant location! Both locations are great, the staff works hard and is so nice. The food is delicious, make sure to ask for all of the hot sauces that they have and if you like spicy, then get the almond sauce. read more

La Real is a go-to for lunch or dinner. I love the people and the food! I highly recommend the truck or the restaurant.

I absolutely love their food cart and restaurant in Tigard. The chorizo breakfast burrito is all I want on a weekend. The staff is so friendly and kind. There's never a long wait and it's easy to call ahead and order for pickup. read more

Westside does authentic. I came here for the recommended Torta Ahogada as their Pearl location rarely offers it. I like the vibe here just a bit more. Sandwich was excellent, and the salsa bar impressive. The sauce is blazing spicy. Prices are fair. Parking lot is kinda tight and nearby intersection one of busier in Tigard. Staff is very friendly. read more

4 stars because the food is delicious with an amazing salsa bar! However, there is a discrepancy between their prices posted on their menu online and what they actually charge. For my work group order, there was a price difference of $9.50- which matters when you are collecting money from different co workers... Other than that, it's quick service, and welcoming employees. read more

This super lengua burrito literally had me in a singing mood. Packed with plenty of flavor and very sizable it was perfect for my Saturday morning! There is a lovely salsa bar with all the fixings and especially picked onions and carrots! There's plenty of seating inside, but the parking lot might get congested so be warned! The interior is very basic and minimal. The service was friendly and quick. I will definitely be back anytime I am craving a flavorful and heft burrito! read more

Solid Mexican food, the service is excellent, the place is immaculately clean, the salsa bar is always stocked. Best breakfast burrito in the area. I'm here every week. read more

The service was with a big smile and friendly attitude. As for the food, Will, this is the second time I've been here this week. First time I had a chicken taco, which was amazing tonight I had the tamales excellent idea. Ambience, simple, refreshing, and relaxing. We will definitely be back. Support small businesses. read more

I love how simple and open the restaurant is! The staff are incredibly friendly. We ordered the carne asada plate and the taco plate (your choice of meats for the tacos, we got beef, spicy pork, and chicken). The pork and chicken were a little dry, but we got our order to go so that might be why? The carne asada was perfect! They have a self serve area for your salsas, limes, etc. This restaurant is a great addition to Tigard and I'm glad I visited read more

This place is amazing... I love going there when I'm in the area. The staff and food are amazing!

The quesabirria tacos were next level. We ordered a second round because they were that good. The salsa bar, too. I'll be back!

I haven't been to this place yet. But I love this type of food and drinks and it looks like a place would be great and it's very nice looking read more

Great place to get some good tacos and burritos. The interior is pretty simple, and you order at the counter. I liked that they have a sauce/condiments station. We ordered a couple of quesatacos and a Del Sol burrito with steak. The Del Sol burrito was their take on the California burrito. The burrito was excellent and we really devoured it. The sauces that we grabbed were all delicious. I would just go back for the sauces. read more

My husband and I love this place--it is our go to Mexican food spot. We both came from Southern California and this spot offers the best authentic food. It's more of a casual place to eat but every meal we've gotten has always been flavorful. On the plus side the staff have always been amazing! read more

Best Mexican food I have found in the Portland area and as an LA girl I feel that carries some weight - even if just a little bit. Reasons why it's a must visit: 1. Delicious & fresh food. 2. Great prices even in 2023. 3. Salsa bar! 4. Refreshing and not overly sweet Aguas frescas (6 kinds). 5. Clean. 6. Friendly staff. 7. POZOLE! - My new favorite reason it's my go to spot. I have yet to find this delicious soup/stew anywhere since moving here and despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to replicate it at home. Needless to say, but I was thrilled when I saw they were serving it. Hopefully it stays on the menu. They also have champurrado, which is like a corn based Mexican hot chocolate that is thicker and less sweet and a perfect fall/winter drink. read more

The food at La Real overall, is 8.5 / 10. But the quesatacos.... THE QuesaTacos are the best item they make. It's got me in a chokehold. Anytime I can make it over to this area I will make a mandatory stop. The service here is always great, quick but efficient, great quality people. Nothing crazy ambiance wise, but it's a comfortable "hole in the wall" off 217! Good amount of space and seats, great salsa bar. OHHHHH DONT LET ME FORGET, THE HORCHATA IS THE BEST IN OREGON. No chance. read more

Really solid food and great service! Tamale was just okay, but everything else was super good. Quesatacos were great with solid consommé, and al pastor was super flavorful. Big salsa bar with super fresh salsas. Friends had super burrito, carne asada tacos, and an al pastor quesadilla and all enjoyed. Will be back on Tuesdays! read more

My new go to spot for tacos!!!! So delish, so convenient, and such a friendly staff. Yummmmm finally! Closed on the wkends but their taco truck is right up the 99 if you have a wkend craving. I just found out about this spot and seriously been at least 4 times already. ...and no I didn't eat all these tacos myself, I shared but beware they are sooo good you will want at least 4!!!

I got to the restaurant after work on a fairly raining night around 5:30pm. No one was inside, so I had my doubts that maybe the locals knew something about this place that I didn't. I proceeded to order. The person behind the counter was friendly, he gave me time to look-over the menu. I ordered the Carne Asada plate and a regular fountain drink to-go. The service was smooth and reasonably quick. Several person came and went, possibly phone orders or Door-dash pick-ups. As I left, this might be the only negative, Hall Blvd at this time of night has very heavy traffic. Trying to turn left from the parking lot took a bit of time and timing. Now for the important part, the food was excellent. The carne asada has such an awesome taste. I'm from the Oakland/SF bay area and we have some really good mexican food places, but this place has the best tasting carne asada I've tasted. The pickled carrots and peppers are really hot. I needed to take smaller bites. The tortilla was good, as well as the small salad. I would eat there again, and yes I would recommend this restaurant. read more

La Real - Quesatacos! So delicious! Dip your taco in this yummy broth! - Mexican Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Tacos at ubiquitous these days. I started by renewed fascination after watching an LA episode of Bordain's No Reservations. I had these unreal Mexican style street tacos at a food truck in Portland and never saw that truck again. Then one day, tried the La Real food truck on 99 near my office and k was hooked. At least once a week since then. Start with the steak tacos with cotija cheese. They have a great salsa bar. My favorite is the Quesataco with the consume to dip it in. Also, the world's nicest staff! read more

First time stopping in after reading the reviews. No frills restaurant but the food was amazing. Got the El Pastor taco plate and my wife the taco salad. Fresh salsas were spicy but the onions were on point! Enjoy read more

Intrigued by the superb online photos, my son & I chose La Real out of many local choices (Marketing, & outstanding reviews). Staff is plentiful, patient, & friendly-and fresh salsa bar is amazing (spicier than anything local). Price points are average, and feel one will be more than satisfied with what they pay for. If memory serves me (this visit is first & only), Breakfast served all day! We will be back. read more

Great food. We love the tacos and quesatacos. But the order is often wrong. This time we ordered 6 quesatacos and only got 1 consume (menu says buy 2 quesatacos and get 1 consume free). Last time they forgot a Mexican coke, 1 quesataco and didn't make tacos to order. Staff gets annoyed when you have to ask for the items you paid for. read more

Best Tacos I've had in a long time. Worthy of a location in San Diego even! Price is right, service is great and guacamole was on point (with a little extra salt). PS- they serve breakfast all day! read more

My burrito was practically 65% onion, i've noticed that their veggie burritos consistently taste mediocre because of the way they use onions. Their service was quick, and I like that they have little warmers out for the cold nights. read more

The quesabirria with the dipping sauce is the best! Very good Mexican food. I admit I was skeptical at first, but tasting is believing.

I have gone to both of their food trucks, the one in Tigard by U-Haul and the other one in Newberg at the Jeep parking lot. They are my favorite Mexican food place, I honestly highly recommend La Real. Anyways, I visited their restaurant today and had an even better experience! All staff were very welcoming and kind. And the food was OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING. It felt like eating at home. Thank you La Real for always keeping up high standards. You guys are the best!!!! read more

The super burrito is great! Also chicken taco extremely yummy! I love the salad bar and the sauces! I eat there every day. They always clean when it's slow and they always have a smile on their face. Welcome you in with a smile! I'm so happy this place is only few minutes from my house! Highly recommended! read more

Great food! The best in Beaverton/Tigard! The chile bar is spot on! If you haven't tried this place you are losing out! Best Mexican food in Oregon! read more

Waiting for some motorcycle service down the road and this place was recommended to me. It was so good. Got a taco plate with pork and chicken. Really good. Awesome salsa bar. Super nice people and fast (but not too fast). Great space too with lots of seating, including good spots to sit yourself and stuff your face with tacos. I'll be back again. read more

I don't know why I took so long to try this place. I like that they have wet burritos, and they listened to me and got my order right. The food was tasty, and the salsa bar is also quite nice. Also less expensive than many similar restaurants. read more
