talk about some authentic mexican home cooking at its finest. after an experience in this modest establishment, you'll insist to go to the kitchen to hug the cook. there is nothing you get here that you'll turn your nose up to. for a quick meal, order a couple tacos at less than a $2 each. the Huarache was the dish that almost made me tear up out of love. i suggest you try it. for the incredibly picky or those that don't want anything to fancy, try a tostada, a couple flautas, or even a burrito or two. like i said, you can't possibly order something you'll regret here. just a bit of warning, the parking here is somewhat haphazard. its a small parking lot that'll fit several cars, but with no painted or marked spots, parking is however you decide. omg... i may have to go back to this place tomorrow read more

I had theTaco special, shredded pork. Came with beans and rice. We were looking for a quick lunch and looked on Yelp for a suggestion. We read about this place and thought we would check it out. Good food and service. The only thing is they didn't serve chips with the meal. That may have been because of the "special" but I missed the chips and salsa you normally get. read more

Stopped in for quick bite to eat. Very friendly staff and they steered me to the top three dishes. The first was a dish I had never had before, so that's what I ordered. (I think taco's were #2 and I can't remember the third!) Anyway, I had a chavendeca which is basically two warm corn tortillas filled with meat and cheese (I chose spicy pork) topped with sour cream, shredded cabbage, onions, sliced avocado, some tomatoes and cilantro. Various green and red salsa were served on the side. It was excellent, and only $6. This is a very casual taqueria, but I give it five stars because of the food quality and friendly staff. read more

It makes me really happy when a Mexican restaurant has vegetarian tamales, and Los Girasoles did! The tamale was yummy and hot, filled with peppers and cheese. I also tried the vegetarian burrito, and it was very good. I liked that it had cabbage inside with the rice, beans, cheese and other vegetables. My husband enjoyed his tacos and chicken tamales very much. Also, the red salsa is delicious!! I would purchase a bottle of it if I could! The service was quick and friendly. We will stop by again the next time we are in Silverton. read more

Thought I'd try Los Gurasoles based on reviews, unfortunately I didn't have the same experience as others. I had the asada burrito enchilado, but the flavor was just okay, and the steak was a bit on the tough side. Unfortunately, they don't offer shredded beef, and I've found that the small bits of steak just fall out of a burrito when it is sliced. I also wish that they would offer fresh chips and salsa, but they have no chips at all. read more

Super friendly environment, great sauce -especially the green! Very casual and authentic. Thanks for the reviews Yelpers! We have been there each time we head to The Oregon Garden, now. read more

Never disappointed! Love love love this place! Food is fresh, quick, and priced affordably.

I finally decided to give this place a try today and am so pleased I did. I ordered the veggie burrito and it was by far the BEST one I've ever eaten. Not heavy or greasy, a perfect amount of every ingredient. The cilantro and cabbage was an excellent touch. I haven't tried anything else, but based on this one item I would highly recommend this place! I ordered to go so am unsure about service, but they seemed very friendly and the price is right. read more

We found this place on Yelp by the reviews. We were exploring the area and very hungry. That was not a problem here. We walked in and were treated by the amazing smell of the pastries. Sadly we were too full after our food to try them. We were a bit overwhelmed by the menu, but the woman at the counter was very friendly and helpful. She recommended the burritos and chavindecas. So that's what we ordered, both were delicious and too big to finish. read more

Whenever my wife and I go hiking Silver Falls or visiting the Oregon Gardens, we make a point of stopping at Los Girasoles for some of the best Tex-Mex that these two Texpatriates have found anywhere near Portland. We also make sure to bring some of their great bakery items home with us afterwards. This place is special! read more

First off, the cashier gave us attitude when asking about specific ingredients. My boyfriend and I are vegan, so we confirming there was no dairy in some of the ingredients. I ordered a typical veggie burrito and I was not impressed. Also in comparison to other Mexican restaurants, they did not have chips and salsa to order. Will not be returning read more

This is honestly my favorite Mexican restaurant I've been to. The food is delicious and fresh. The bakery is full of wonderful pastries for a great price. The people who work there are very friendly. I'd recommend this place to anyone. 5 stars!!! read more

Awesome authentic Mexican food. Not your typical chips and salsa/greasy cheese Mexican. Especially amazing with their special house chili sauce! We eat here often. read more

This place is the bomb. So much so that no matter what day, it's packed. The flavors of authentic Mexican are bountiful. They also have a good selection of Mexican pastries. Parking is a bit tough, so get there early. read more

This is a little place that we have always driven by but never thought to stop. We were introduced to take out from this restaurant last week and we have already gone back twice! The burritos are amazing!!! Looking forward to exploring the menu a bit more but for now I highly recommend the pastor burrito with everything on it. read more

Best beef burrito in town! Our family's favorite place to eat in town. Make sure you hungry cause it's a lot of food.

Really? This is NOT very good food. I am not a fan. Lacks true Spanish flavor. The prices are too high for what you get served. I won't be going back. read more

Yummy! Just absolutely yummy! We found this place wandering around town during a visit to Oregon Garden Resort. The food is terrific. The tortas (sandwiches) are amazing- and why wouldn't they be? The bread is fresh baked right there! I had them make me a chorizo & egg sandwich. Out of this world good. And the tres leches cake isn't super sweet. It is just as it should be. Wish I could skip the 4 hr drive & eat there right now. It has been a month & I can't get this place out of my head. read more

Very good burritos. Service was really good. They also have pastries but my belly doesn't need them. I'll probably be back to this place.

What a great find in Silverton. Freshly made, delicious and authentic Mexican food, as well as a bakery and some other items such as sauces, real Mexican paletas, etc. This is an unfussy, small restaurant where you can sit in or take out. Friendly service, good prices and just a really good authentic feel. I get the impression people are coming from far and wide to eat here, and with good reason. We dropped in here on a Friday for lunch, and liked it so much we came back the next day! This is sure to be a stop on our next jaunt to Silverton. We tried the tacos, next time we will do full platas. read more

Today we had the huaraches... So very very good. Outside of Mexico this was the best! If you are in silverton definitely stop by - you won't be disappointed. read more

We love Mexican food and have been to so many places in the US and Mexico. This is definitely one of the better places in the Pacific Northwest. The flavors, attention to detail in preparation, and friendly service are superb. I liked it enough to write this review, my first one on Yelp. read more

Tried the chicken and pastor chavindecas. Both good but the edge goes to the pastor as it had a bit of an Asian fusion flavor. Great little mom and pop Mexican shop that is worth a visit if you are passing through Silverton. read more

Best authentic Mexican food in Silverton. Their carnitas are especially yummy.

Yummy! Homemade tortillas, tasty spicy pork, and super affordable. What a nice surprise!

Normally I do not take the time to write a review. In fact this is the first time. My husband & decided to try this place a couple days ago. We both ordered the chicken enchilada with rice & beans. Nothing was really very good. Not horrible as it was edible just not very good. Chicken enchiladas were blah & dry. We are used to getting them with a nice red sauce on them & some melted cheese. These were extremely dry. Just a hint of dried on sauce on the enchilada with some shredded cabbage? and a little finely grated powdered looking cheese sprinkled on top. Rice & beans were also blah. No chips & salsa available either. Very disappointed in the food. Staff was friendly. read more

Very disappointed. I got a torta and the bun soaked in butter and the chicken tasted like it was from can. Not very good

Great food and fast serve. We love getting food to go. The burritos are wonderful.

Good, home-cooked Mexican at very reasonable prices. A great place for lunch or dinner.

Hole in the wall authentic type of a place. Food was just OK. No chips and Salsa. Not the cleanest.

While it's a little run down as far as location, this is some of the best Mexican food in the area.

Grrrrate for Lunch!!! Iove this place and go here often. I would sugest the Veggie borritos, spicy pork chavendeca, and chiken tamalys. Almost everything here is good and their bakery is wonderfull! read more

Best Mexican food around Salem or Portland. They even have sexy woman working the counter;)
