Solid taco shops are hard to find outside of Southern California. Great breakfast burrito.
Things change inflation sucks ,the salsa bar is up and running again so now i'm back!! Carne asada fajita burrito no rice was muy bien!!
This is one of the oldest taco places in town, and, despite my long tenure in Portland, my first visit. I appreciated the bits of fat in the pastor taco, i like a little fat with my pork. The meat here and in the carne asada taco were freshly grilled, and the tortillas themselves had little grill grease on them. 4 sauces to choose from and some vegetables. Efficient service. Not much in terms of ambiance, but that's how these places roll. Roll on little mermaid.
Love the soft tostada! Service is always great. We've been coming here since 2009. We love supporting a local family-owned business.
