    Soyrizo taco
    Keely N.

    First time trying tight tacos. I ordered a singular soyrizo taco. The tortilla was good. The seasoning was tasty. Salsa verde was tasty.

    Street Tacos - Carne Asada

    DoorDashed an order of street tacos and Mexican street corn. Both tasted great, the tacos were huge. They didn't hold back on the carne asada.I will definitely go in to eat in person.

    Quesatacos and esquites

    First time having quesatacos! Everything was so delicious and fresh! I loved the esquites too. I got chicken in my tacos and i loved how crunchy and delicious they were. Can't wait to come back!

    Best. Tacos. Ever. Quesatacos are a revelation and I'm thinking of relocating to Portland to be near these. The staff were super friendly and helpful, the location was cheerful, clean and whimsical. I will be back!

    typical taco place $5 quesataco with braised beef, good flavoring and not as crunchy as expected $7 cup of horchata, largest size, good drink!

    It's a great spot for a snack. They have a variety of items to choose from. We had some tacos, quesataco, and nachos. The tacos had a healthy portion of protein, and the nachos were amazing! They make their chips fresh, and all the ingredients on the nachos are great, especially the cheese sauce.

    The Quesataco was amazing! I got one with braised beef and the consome side and it was so good. I also got a regular pollo taco and it was mediocre, seemed like the tortilla was not cooked very well and a little too thick. The chicken was pretty dry too. Overall I would go back for the quesataco as it was amazing!

    Taco with Pollo & Quesataco with Asada!

    Tight Tacos was just across the street from our Air bnb. It's was in walking distance and the perfect location for lunch or dinner! The food was fresh and was so delicious! I had a taco with pollo and the highly recommended quesataco with asada. The cheese fried and melted inside was just dreamy!! The guacamole (not shown) was so good, it was refreshing and had just the right amount of onions and lime juice! The staff were so helpful and their recommendations were a hit! The restaurant is so clean and the atmosphere is fun and inviting.

    Tried this place out for the first time. I ordered there nachos with double the toppings and a quesabirria taco. Both were delicious but the nachos were my thing. I ordered two drinks a margarita and an horchata. But they forgot to bring me my horchata and I got so consumed in conversation with my friends I forgot to asked them about it. You can either sit at the table and scan a QR code to order your food or you can order it at the front.

    Yummmyyyy tacos!!! I got the soyrizo and just yes! The flavor was there and the portion was pretty great. It's a cute concept place too hahah, and the tacos come with a few tortilla chips - a nice touch I must say. I especially loved the condiment bar and the servers were helpful and lovely. The ambiance was casual! I would definitely return to get more tacos!

Enchiladas (carnitas) it was only ok it was a tad bit salty and, a few hard parts (I'll definitely would get the chicken next time). Chicken Fajitas were good but, it's a different taste from other places I've had it (my love enjoyed it he said it had a very authentic flavor). Rice (fluffy) and Beans (well seasoned) both were really delicious. Service~Pearlina was super sweet, knew the menu very well and, had exceptional service. She made sure we had everything we needed and, continue to check on us throughout our meal. Ambiance~It's has a very calming vibe and atmosphere. I love the fact they have a privacy strip on the windows (so no one walking by watches you eat). It's a family owned restaurant and, I would recommend giving them a try. I feel what we ordered was worth it but, everything (except water) has a charge. Only street parking and, lots of indoor/outdoor seating.

Both the fish and the prawns were cooked in a red sauce that was delicious! I meant to ask for blue corn tortillas but was so excited to find shrimp & fish tacos that weren't deep-fried that I forgot to ask for them. The regular corn tortillas were excellent, though, so it was not a bad mistake to make. I also had jamaica to drink and let me tell you... it was not made from a mix! It was dark, thirst-quenching, and perfectly made. Most jamaica is super sweet - this was not! I love the flavor of real hibiscus and this did not disappoint. My friends had chile relleno bowls and birria tacos, all of which was excellent. Their watermelon margaritas were tasty and refreshing! Our orders were taken by a helpful person at the cash register and the food was served quickly by a friendly server. The inside and outside areas were clean and tidy, with plenty of seating available at the outside tables. The outdoor seating area is under cover making it a good choice for both summer & winter dining. Definitely going on my "have to go back and try something else" list!

Such a small detail that makes a big difference. The Citrus Salad was super fresh, crisp, and delicious, which balanced everything out perfectly. I also tried the NA classic margarita and it was so refreshing. I loved the subtle touch of orange juice. Overall, such a lovely spot with amazing food, great vibes, and thoughtful details. I will definitely be back!

For the amount of food and the overall experience, I thought it was a great way to experience the restaurant. Ángel took care of us and made the meal even more memorable by telling us the story and inspiration behind each dish as it came out. It made the tasting feel like much more than just trying a bunch of different dishes. I'm definitely a carnivore and usually feel like a meal needs some kind of meat, but surprisingly, my favorite dish was the mole with eggplant and rice. The mole was delicious, and I genuinely didn't miss having meat on the plate. I would happily order that dish again exactly as it was. The tomates en salsa arabe were another standout. I really enjoyed how fresh the dish tasted, especially with the seasonal tomatoes they were using. I also had the carnitas tacos, which had great flavor and texture. For dessert, we had what was essentially a fried concha, and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet. It had just the right amount of sweetness for me and was a great way to finish the meal. Overall, I highly recommend doing the full tasting menu at República. For around $40 per person, you get to experience the entire menu, and if you're lucky enough to have Ángel there to walk you through the stories and concepts behind the dishes, it makes the experience that much better.

Today my wife and I enjoyed scrumptious Tacotes, one chicken and one Bok Choy with house made salsa. Also, the Tetela de Requeson, maiz, beans and sprouting broccoli with a house made requeson - kind of like ricotta cheese - very beautifully plated and so delicious. Extra side of yummy and creamy black bean frijoles with sour cream, butter, tortillas. Instead of desert, the Mezcal, chile and lime was refreshing. Right now open for lunch Thursday through Sunday 10-3pm. No fixed menu, changes with what's fresh - the way chef Angel loves to cook respecting what is in season. Service and ambiance is friendly and knowledgeable about the food and its origin - another reason I love dining here so I learn about what I'm eating and how it was inspired. Yes, the food plated looks so good, I am inspired to dig in. There's a reason it was recognized early in its start by Eater, Portland Monthly and the Oregonian as one of the best restaurants in the city because foodies seek out and love to go where the food experience is special - especially the chef tasting menus in the past. Now I'm watchful and ready to go back and see what the chef Angel is serving up. What else is so special is Republica was a James Beard award nominee too!

The person at the counter taking our order was helpful, efficient, and their enthusiasm carried over into the dining portion of the visit. My rule of thumb is that if a place has Cochinita Pibil on the menu, then they can be counted on to do things right. My CP taco had just the right amount of spice to leave me with a pleasant, warm feeling inside, about a half hour after we left. The horchata was cool and soothing, even though it had a wonderful, over-the-top cinnamon flavor. Having tables with permanently assigned numbers, and having your table assigned at the time you place your order makes for a spectacularly efficient way of getting you settled, and getting your food to the table in short order.

Staff was welcoming, friendly, helpful and attentive. I read reviews about their complimentary chips, salsa and bean dip. We asked for the bean dip, but we found out when we received our bill that it's not complimentary anymore. Bummer. It was good, but not worth the extra $5. They were extremely generous with their chips and salsa, so in the end we were okay paying the extra $5. We ordered the chicken quesadilla and charbroiled burger. Both were great! Fresh ingredients. The quesadilla wasn't greasy at all. Neither were the chips! Our server recommended the pollo asada for my quesadilla and it was much appreciated.
