Here's the good: the food was amazing my fajita was enough for like three people. My wife had a veggie burrito and she loved it. The service was exceptional.

The food is amazing and the prices are fantastic. If you are local and have not made Fuego a regular eatery yet, you are missing out on a quality meal!! They do an excellent and very thorough job with take out as well. Drinks are also quite excellent. Great atmosphere, casual and clean. The ceaser side salad was super fresh and I can't say enough about the roasted veggies. They are almost a meal by themselves. We ordered take out this past Sunday and I ordered the taco salad and a side of the veggies. I added them to the salad and it was spectacular!! They are perfectly cooked and garlicky. They went so good right on my salad...which was huge and packaged in a very nice resealable plastic bowl. Crispy and fresh! The food was packaged very well and it was still hot when we got home 20 min away. There are not very many resteraunts available these days that are like this but still completely affordable for local folks.

On top of the amazing service, the food was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.

Ever since I regularly started to visit Portland a few years back, multiple friends who had also…read morevisited the city had recommended Taco Escobarr. I had never taken them up on their recommendation in the past, though, as I don't find Mexican food in the Northeast to be anything special - and I'm not really in the mood for it when in Maine. However, I was looking to try some new (to me) spots this past trip, and was in the mood for Mexican, so I decided to check it out for dinner. Escobarr is located on Congress Street - I had always been told this is a super popular spot however when I arrived on a Wednesday evening it was only half full so I easily snatched a seat at the bar. The interior is fun - the vibes are relaxed and the decor is just enough to let you know you're in a Mexican restaurant without being too over the top. The aesthetic highlights for me was the large string of pepper lights hanging from the ceiling, and the bangin' millennial playlist they were playing. I decided to start with a margarita, because Mexican restaurant. They have a variety of flavors but I went simple with their signature one. It was pretty good, nothing too noteworthy but a solid marg nonetheless. As suggested by the name, the star of the menu is tacos - they have a good variety of fillings, and can be purchased a la carte or in combination with sides. They also have a few non-taco offerings, though less than a standard Mexican restaurant - this is mainly a taco joint. I decided on three tacos - chicken, chorizo, and al pastor, and ordered a side of beans. Food came out super fast, and overall my meal was fine. These weren't the best tacos I've had, but they did hit the spot and the filling was generous. The side of beans was fine as well - they were beans. Note that chips and salsa are not obligatory here, kinda odd but maybe that's just their thing. After another round and some nice conversation with some other patrons and the staff, I made my way. Service was great - the staff were super fun and engaging with each other and the customers. That, along with the fun vibes are the reasons I feel one would come to Taco Escobarr. The food is just fine, but the overall experience was good. Would I return for the vibes alone? Perhaps, but I'm not running back.

Our waiter was fantastic, offering great recommendations that did not disappoint. As if I needed another reason to love this place, they're on DoorDash, which means I can get my favorite tacos delivered to work. That's a win in my book. Great food, great drinks, great service. I'll definitely be back... again and again.

So, here goes: Abbie, the waitress , was sweet, all smiles, welcoming, anxious to please. The place is on a main street with easy parking, is clean, sparkling, inviting. But I was the only patron... One has a choice of salsas- I had the corn- mild, a mix of flavors, very good. I had a small wings- Buffalo sauce- with blue cheese dip- I have honestly never tasted better. Astounding. The enchiladas were beef with chili con queso- Too rich. Couldn't finish them. In sum- a pleasant surprise considering the preceding negative reviews- I will stop again next time through.

We decided to check it out for weekend brunch. We were the only ones there, which surprised us, because the space itself is adorable and beautifully done. I ordered the breakfast tacos, and my husband had the breakfast burrito--both were incredibly fresh and absolutely delicious. We left thinking... okay, maybe that was just a fluke. Fast forward a few days later, and we went back for lunch--still puzzled by all the terrible reviews after such a great brunch experience. We started with the nachos, and once again--amazing. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. We had planned on ordering more, but the nachos were more than enough for two (honestly, probably three). We're already excited to go back and keep trying more items on the menu. Our server, Katie, was exceptional. She was warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful when explaining the menu and drink options. Her service really elevated the experience. All in all, we're genuinely confused by the negative reviews. Maybe things were different early on and they had to work out the kinks, or maybe expectations of Mexican food vary (you know what I'm talking about, those "chain" restaurants where everything tastes like it just came out of a can from Sysco) more than we realize. What we can say is that every visit we've had has been excellent, and we'll definitely continue supporting this spot.

We were there on a Tuesday around 11:45 and stayed until around 1:30/2pm - There was a steady stream of people getting take out and the dinning aread was 3/4 full the entire time. It seems to be a very popular place. The menu is pretty easy to read on the wall to your right as you walk in. it's pretty easy - you can choose a option from the wall and you can customize your burrito, quesadilla, nachos etc further when you get to the counter. I have never been to a chipotle, so I can't compare it. I love the fact that it's locally owned. For those that do not like cilantro - it's only in two things..one of the rice options and the pico...other than that you are safe. For those that love cilantro, you can ask for extra. I had the supreme nachos with pork and nacho cheese, jalapenos, black beans and lettuce....SOOOOOO GOOOD!!!! and very very filling. I liked the food so much that I ordered a to-go dish for my husband. He loved his food. he said the seasoning was light, but he enjoyed it.

Of all the times coming here and eating their food both breakfast and lunch/dinner have had no complaints. Service has always been friendly and quick! They have some space indoors to dine but us like many others order then take it home to eat. They follow a similar model as places like Chipotle and Subway where you order and watch your food be made and can choose the toppings/fill ins. You can enjoy so many great options of burritos, tacos, bowls/salads, fries, quesadillas plus some other things. I have always enjoyed their burritos, maybe I need to expand to other things next time. My wife enjoys their bacon breakfast burrito and I enjoy their chorizo breakfast burrito. Lunch wise my wife enjoys their Burrito Americano while I think their Steak Bomb Burrito is great! They offer a good variety in fillings, spice levels, and flavors. Food always tastes fresh and high quality to us. Give their menu a look and check this spot out! Definitely worth your time!

Every taco was perfect - crispy and filled with so much flavor and texture. The blue corn chorizo Verde taco was a revelation - I normally don't tend to mix my meats in a taco, but I've gotta change that in the future because this was just so good. The mushroom Dorado tacos were also great. And the chicken gringa was just what my wife wanted.. the fish tacos are just right - they need some spice and slaw in addition to perfect fish - - - too many places just throw some fish and don't really get the rest of it right, but they do here in Lenora.
