“It's tucked behind Cascade Cigar Co. And after having their quesabirria tacos, keto quesabirria, regular taco, the single pizzabirria, and birria ramen, I can confirm this is the best place for any birria craving!! Will definitely be back and recommend to others!!“
“These quesa tacos were surprisingly small , I've ate at many birria spots and this has been the smallest . I originally got two because I usually get full with 2 but these are mini quesa birrias . So my suggestion is to double up on your usual order because this order was small . They are also 3$ each for these mini tacos .! Mine didn't even have lemon but my partners did so he gave me his . He was also surprised by how small they were . The agua frescas were delicious . Overall the food was good . The consomé lacked a bit of Flavor . But I added my red salsa to the consomé and lemon. Also you have to actually ask and pay for the consomé as it does not come included with your tacos . Which is odd. Would I come here again ? Definitely not . There are better places to eat . This place was just conveniently close.“
“no doubt some of the freshest, best mexican food in the city. better than any sit down and half the price. you can grab a drink at the bar while they make your food and it is always served out quickly. great seating if you want to stay and eat outside. can't recommend it enough.“
“I’m in a rut! When I visit HV Food carts, I make a beeline to Fuego All Day (FAD). It’s the Birria Tacos with a side of House Queso and chips. The birria tacos always hit! The queso (with or without the chorizo) makes the meal complete. I’ve been to HV Food carts when FAD was closed for a catering event. Don’t get me wrong - the food’s good, but it was not the Birria tacos from FAD! The only thing missing tonight was the roasted hot pepper! Thanks for the consistently good food!“
“My husband and I were visiting Portland for a basketball game and we decided to stop here the morning after. We arrived early right before the lunch rush. The food was amazing and the owners/ workers showed great hospitality. Food also came quick! Will definitely be back!“
“Chilango PDX is the best vegan food cart. Vanessa is so sweet and accommodating. If something is too spicy or not spicy enough, she’ll make you another one. The food is totally five stars and I’m not even a vegan. I’m now bringing all my friends there! Yum!!“
“A food truck with mighty flavors in their tacos! This was featured in netflix so it was a must stop to check out during our portland trip. It's located in Hinterland Bar& food Carts. The truck is at the end of the row, near their version of indoor/outdoor seating..The covered outdoor seating has heat lamps. The dining areaWas nice and cozy during the day. The seating area have a fair amount of seating, self-serve water, and a modest shelter from the wind and rain..I ordered the chopped brisket tacos which consist of brisket and guacamole. The brisket was the epitome of juicy. The tortilla were soft and warm. The brisket flavors together was savory delicious. It's safe to say my tastebuds were seredipity! The size of the tacos are surprisingly deceiving as they leave you feeling a healthy full..I also got the smoked turkey taco with guacamole and it was pleasing to the presentation. The turkey taco had good chunks of white turkey meat. The taco was refreshing too. I wouldn't have thought about smoked turkey tacos as my second choice but it was great to experience something different. It's great being adventurous sStreet parking since it's near a residential area. The server whohanded me my food was nice. The ordering process was a breeze as you order on atablet located at the front of the truck and they text you when your order is ready. Matt'sBBQ Tacos is a revisit when I am craving a snack at the food trucks and l'm looking forward to trying out other creations. Hope this review is helpful and thanks for reading. Have a yelptastic day.“
“I have to say that this cart was absolutely amazing. Me and my wife got the Birria Burritos one with no beans and one with beans, they were a perfect balance, the taste was great, the sauce was spicy but tasteful as well. Hands down a very good spot for some Birria!?!?! Thank you Jr and Guillermo Sr!“
“The entire place was GORGEOUS. The cocktails were delicious, not too sweet but with many flavor notes. Our server was an absolute peach and kept our drinks secret as we tried to surprise each other with cocktails. The music was rad and we’d def recommend the goat cheese beet plate (oh and they’ll top off your order of deviled eggs to an even number to spare a fight over the last odd egg left) We hope to come back soon!“
“This is a great neighborhood taqueria. The prices are really good for the quality of the food and the spices on the Al Pastor are some of the best I've had. Burrito bowls are my jam and this burrito bowl is seriously legit. Salsas are also great.“
“I was in Portland from out of state for a conference and Tacos Frita catered one of the meals. I loved their vegan and gluten free tacos and the pinto beans were the best I've had. I had to have their food again so I went to the food truck. Very nice people, great customer service!“

“This is the greatest burrito in all of Oregon. I was lost and now I am found. As soon as I took my first bite a single tear formed in my eye, tastiness like I had never known surged through my body. I tried to take a photo but we ate the burritos with such speed that it was simply impossible. The food, the salsa, the atmosphere and the service was the best of anything I've tried in all of Oregon. Please do yourself a favor and go to Taqueria El Paisano.“
“The tacos are really tasty (though I have only had the al pastor and chicken), I imagine the others are good as well. The Keto tacos are unique being a fired cheese shell, and are really good. The guacumole is chucky and plentiful both on the side or with their tasty nachos. The Mexican fried rice is a combination Spanish rice and Asian fried rice, very different and good. The burrito takes 2 hands to hold, it is big, also flavorful. I highly recommend eating here, I do at least once a week. The owners are also really nice people!“
“Well dang it! Just when I thought I had my ramen hierarchy figured out! Now I have to completely rejigger the results of several years worth of research. Kayo's is amazing!!! I'm not normally a tofu fan, but the tofu in the cold noodle dish, Chili Garlic Noodles blew me away! And my dish of Snow Ramen just outta this world.“
“AMAZING MEXICAN FOOD! (Yep, I meant to yell that.) This is by far the best Mexican food we've had in Portland. Carnitas and Carne Asada both perfectly seasoned. Order the grilled onions and jalapeños. Just do it. We don't drink alcohol, so can't speak to the execution of the several mixed drinks on the menu except to say they are big and look tasty. Ordered take out twice in one week. Tried to order the flan the first time we ordered, but they were sold out. Granted, it was within a hour of closing on a Sunday. Next time - score! Simply yum!! Staff? They were friendly and got our orders out on time. Next time we'll dine in. Churros need to be eaten right out of the kitchen, right? Do yourself a favor and check them out.Parking: Several parking spots next to the building and some street parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Street level entrance. No stairs.“
“This place is bomb bomb. It’s a small, family owned food truck with outside covered sitting options. The food is so delicious reliable each time & the folks making the food are so dear & warm. We come at least 1x a month if not more.“
“The tacos are amazing. I ordered asada, pollo , lengua and tripe tacos. The lengua were my favorite but all of them were amazing. i had some green and red sauce on the side and normally I don't like the red sauce much and prefer the green but the red sauce has the perfect heat and it's slightly smoky with good flavor. As long as they keep this quality I won't go anywhere else for a taco again.“
“Amazing tacos! Filled to the brim with Carne Asada…wonderful salas. Very nice people…great customer service. She wrapped my tacos beautifully so I could tuck them under my cycling jacket and transport them safely home where I devoured them.“
“I purchased lunch for my team at work and every one of us couldn’t get enough. To quote one person “it’s like a flavor party in my mouth!” Is an understatement. All of the flavors were perfectly paired, and not overpowering with one or the other. I can’t wait to get more!“
“Pleasant unassuming coffee shop and Mexican cuisine place. I love that I can get 2 street tacos with a 12oz black drip coffee for under $10!Parking: If you’re lucky you can park right in front, I saw a delivery guy do it, he was in and out.“
“This is a great place for some real Mexican street food. The last time we grabbed food to go, we got the birria (beef and goat), which are both delicious, and the pozole is also amazing. In addition to the soups, the menu offers a wide variety of tacos, burritos, nachos, and plates (the mole is wonderful). Sahuayo Taqueria is located in the J&Ts Market, so it is more of a "to-go" option than a sit-down type of experience. In the summer, there is outdoor seating.“
“Best Mexican food in the area, fresh food, made quickly with care. Can't tell you how much we love Saul and his cart, they never disappoint, always tasty and generous portions at a very reasonable price. Hope they never leave, we're there at least once a week. We wish them the best with the upgraded new truck, and eating area, more great food!!“
“The breakfast tacos are incredible every time. The pork belly, brisket, pulled pork and house made sausage are all tied for my favorite. The flour tortillas are light and fluffy. Thrilled they’re at this new location closer to my house. Have already ordered twice in two weeks ?“
“Though this food cart's menu is heavy on meat, I always get a veggie burrito which is packed with cheese, beans, avocado as well as other veggies. The tasty burrito is huge and is more than I can eat in one sitting. Service is fast and friendly.“
“So happy I finally went to this local food cart! Taco Machine is a little food cart with seating space + a heater provided (huge win for a solo food cart pod)! Alongside this, there is a large selection of tacos and burritos to choose from.I had the breakfast burrito on my visit and it was delicious, I will definitely be back to get some tacos. I highly recommend Taco Machine, it is going to become a normal visit for me!“
“I eat here regularly. Really good asada. Believe it or not, best burger around. It's called the bypass burger. It's big on a cheddar bun with thick bacon lettuce tomatoes onions and cheddar cheese. It's absolutely delicious. I'll post pics next time I order. They have bomb breakfast also“
“I just have to say this is one of the only places in general… food cart or restaurant where I eat every last drop on my plate. You guys are kind, never have an attitude or expect a thing more than cooking up good food. Found my new favorite place for tacos… you won’t regret eating here, don’t let the location fool you it’s ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“I've been here twice now and the food has been consistently good. First time I got the Cali burrito which was tasty, but I do wish the fries were just a little crispier. They seemed just a little undercooked. Second time I got the super nachos with chicken and they were good. A ton of food for a good price. Service is also consistently great and I love all their salsas. Definitely want to come back and try the ramen and queso taco next time.“
“This is my go to place for Mexican food. Everything is super delicious. The shredded chicken is the only thing I don't recommend. We are a big fan of their 1 dollar bean and cheese burritos. And also their breakfast burritos. With our breakfast burritos we sub out the potatoes for their beans. Que Bueno!“
“Amazing food. Amazing service. Staff there are very attentive and our drinks and salsa were always being refilled. They were amazing. La carreta staff sang to our friend for her birthday and they did the sombrero and it was all an amazing experience. I have been eating at la carreta since I was a kid and it's always been great.“
“Look it’s a food cart on sandy blvd, that’s why I gave it a 3 star for atmosphere, this place is a great place to eat for lunch, real fast service, I’ve eaten lots of different dishes here and all of them have been great, the staff are all real nice.“
“My friends & I wanted to try a New Mexican food joint out & we stumbled upon Fabos Tacos on our search & decided to give it a shot. It's located in China Town. Parking is street parking only, since it's downtown. The restaurant has a cool vibe, more modern with touches of traditional taqueria decor. The food was good! I unfortunately did not get to try the al pastor since we went later in the evening & they didn't have anymore, but they are known for their al pastor. No complaints about the food, everything tasted good. The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star review is the price, I do feel it is a little expensive especially for the amount of food we got. $4 each for the small sides of beans & rice was a lot in my opinion. As well as $4 for the small cup of horchata I got. The hot sauces were flavorful but lacked heat. Which can be a good or bad thing depending on your preference. Ordering was easy, they had menus at the register. The cashier was nice & friendly & brought our food to our table. Overall, the food was good but I don't know if I'll be coming here often due to the price & it just being far from where I live. But if you are in the downtown/China Town area, definitely give them a try!“
“Wow! The best Birria tacos that I’ve ever had! Tender, flavorful meat and the yummiest consommé to dip in. The guacamole and chips was delicious as well. Parking was easy on a side street and the outdoor seating on two sides of the building allow you to catch a breeze while you eat. The staff is awesome too. Try them out….you will not be disappointed.“
“I love coming here I live nearby and whenever I'm craving authentic Mexican food I come here. Many places nearby don't offer the variety that Kelly's tacos does... the Alpastor they make is delicious and my favorite meat choice. Definitely would recommend Kelly's tacos.“
“Birrieria PDX is always a go to for authentic birria tacos! This location is my favorite because of the location, amazing service, and they always play great music outside the covered area! The covered area is great for PNW weather — they also have outdoor heaters.10/10 recommend!“
“They have the best tacos here . tacos and meat are always good and juicy . You wont regret buying food from here. They have the best pineapple water ? . I always come here when it comes to buying tacos because they aren't dry or old!! They cook very fast too .“
“Had Al Pastor & Carnitas tacos and the avocado and habanero salsas... I will definitely be coming back. So many taco trucks have bland/boring proteins and this place is flavorful and excellent. If anything, I'm sorry I didn't come here sooner.“
“First time here. Chips and salsa, chicken tacos, pescado tacos. All very delicious. Ordered food to go, ordered a beverage while waiting and didn't even get halfway through before the food was ready. House margarita was really good. Friendly and efficient staff. Fun place. We'll be back.“
“I've been here twice now and the food has been consistently good. First time I got the Cali burrito which was tasty, but I do wish the fries were just a little crispier. They seemed just a little undercooked. Second time I got the super nachos with chicken and they were good. A ton of food for a good price. Service is also consistently great and I love all their salsas. Definitely want to come back and try the ramen and queso taco next time.“
“Seriously, the best tacos we’ve ever had. Legit so good. Got a shrimp taco and a quesataco. The ingredients are fresh. The birria was perfectly marinated and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. What made the tacos extra special was the crispy but not crunchy corn tortilla. It’s almost like a toasted tortilla. Thoroughly enjoyed this place.“
“This is a very cute place with excellent, friendly service. Darcy the bartender is the best! Her cocktails are truly delicious and she definitely deserves a raise! I loved the hibiscus mezcal drink and the shaken pina colada was a delicious dessert. Tasty tacos and welcoming atmosphere. Try the veggie taco, it was actually more flavorful than the meat varieties. I'll be back!“
“As a sober chick - not only am I grateful, but I am beyond appreciative, that they have nonalcoholic and Mocktail versions of all of their cocktails. I never once felt out of place and for that I have to give five stars. Thank you Brenton for the amazing service and the fantastic mocktails. An amazing birthday celebration for an amazing gal✨“
“Love love love all of the dishes!! There is so much flavor in everything! They have a different take on mexican dishes that work very well together. The burritos are HUGE!! The nachos are amazing. They have quite a few TVs throughout as well with various sports ball games on. The staff is very friendly too! Great place for amazing food!“
“If you find yourself at El Nutri Taco, at least on Woodstock, you're probably not there for the atmosphere. That said, it has some outside seating for the summer months and nice days. As for the food, I'm not going to point Mexicanos there saying that la comida es la más auténtica. The meat burritos are decent, on par for "Mexican," Tex-Mex, Chicano food in Portland. The tacos are decent too. However, what El Nutri Taco has over other taquerías in the area is the vegetarian and vegan options, and these options are pretty diverse and tasty, so if you got some vegan friends and you all want to eat at the same place, I would definitely recommend El Nutri Taco.Vegetarian options: Check out the menu, but a lot of the burritos - unless otherwise specified- are vegetarian by default and you can add a meat choice to them.“
“I've been meaning to go here for awhile because I always smell it on my 7-11 runs and it smells amazing. I got the birria burrito and it was so good I regret that I took so long to try it. I ended up eating my leftovers for lunch the next day and had to fight off my coworkers. The consomé was perfect just spooned on top of each bite (I know I'm supposed to dip it, I'm a birria newbie). The owner also recommended the melon agua fresca and it was a surprise hit - it was refreshing and the perfect amount of sweet. I can't wait to return and I look forward to being a regular.“
“Got the pdx sampler and horchata and was amazed at how amazing it was! As well there was a few people in line ahead of us and we got served in a timely manner and food was definitely worth the wait! Husband and I will definitely be coming back!“
“This is a super unique location on the edge of Damascus. It is in the middle of a bunch of nursery stock, next to some kind of shop. Food was good. Service was pretty fast. I ordered a chicken burrito and it was well made. Chicken was good and the other fillings were good as well.“
“I have never seen a Guatemalan food truck serve so many authentic Guatemalan dishes before. Basically, everything my mom makes was on this menu, it was very exciting to see. I am plant-based so unfortunately I am not able to eat most dishes but that's ok b/c that's how it's supposed to be. I was able to try the bean & cheese pupusas & wow, they were sooooo good. Huge portions, super soft & fresh masa (dough), beautiful repollo (slaw), & salsa. It really hit the spot & I will def be coming back when I'm needing something that reminds me of home. Wish I could eat the Pepian; I saw someone else who ordered it & it looked incredible. The staff was super friendly & humored me when I wanted to know if they were Guatemalan & talk about my family lol. There are tables to sit at with a cover so you stay dry.“
“I've been here twice now and the food has been consistently good. First time I got the Cali burrito which was tasty, but I do wish the fries were just a little crispier. They seemed just a little undercooked. Second time I got the super nachos with chicken and they were good. A ton of food for a good price. Service is also consistently great and I love all their salsas. Definitely want to come back and try the ramen and queso taco next time.“
“this place is awesome!! Guilhermo is an incridible owner and the food is the best food in town. There's no way to go wrong with thier carne assada guys!! whatever you buy from here you won't regret.Kid-friendliness: every time I get my kids in, we have no complaints.“
