50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Oak Grove

“My wife brought me here for my 70th birthday. She asked, "where would you like to go?" "Surprise me.", I told her. Oh my! My grandmother from Puebla, Mexico would have loved this place. The tortillas were fresh, Handmade! I ordered the Pozole. Oh so rich and fragrant and bustling with pork, hominy and a very wonderful broth. Did I mention the tortillas?? Oh Lord!! I plan to bring my three adult children here for my son's birthday. I plan to eat my way through the menu, over the course of the next year or so. I can see that there are many others who love this place. The entire time we were having dinner, there was a steady stream of people coming in for takeout. Yep, this is a gem of a restaurant. Come enjoy.“

“They have the best Mexican Food on McGlouphlin blvd. Their Taquitos are excellent alond with their homemade Salsa.“

“the la María burrito is amazing the salsas are good the coffee is strong and flavourful even though my order came through between morning and afternoon meat prep they had it ready really quickly“

“Move back to Cali and every time I come to through Portland I make a stop food is fire 🔥“

“Awesome tortas! They use great quality ingredients, the way they prepare their chicken is delicious.“

“deben tener en físico la presentación del menú“

“Phenomenal food. Great ambience. Incredible team. Inspiring story starting with chef Juan that expands into locally-sourced food, seasonality, and supporting women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ producers. As a solo traveler, the warmth and family-like atmosphere made this experience memorable.

It's also not as common to find a tasting menu inspired by Mexican roots, but this was one of the best meals I've enjoyed on the west coast. If you think lobster and mole won't work, you're missing out. Highly recommend!“

“Super nice humans! Hands down best mexican creative food- easy menu with lots of options for food allergies and types of veg/protein. Great price. Kinda the best meal we've eaten in weeks!“

“Let's put another five star review on the boards! If you ever suffer the Injustice of visiting Swan Island you can totally compensate for that by eating these taquitos. If you are a foodie who likes taquitos it's worth up to a 4-mile drive. The taquitos only come in orders of four and you must choose all one Style. All the taquitos have potato inside and the meat options are served as a giant pile on top. Their well made, crunchy, clean tasting, and have just the right toppings on them.

Update, excellent beer battered fish tacos too!“

“I posted these pics after my first visit 11 months ago. I drive Limousines for JMI located in Beaverton. I make it a point to eat at local places while im in that town. I only go to places with more than 4.5 stars. TLM didnt disappoint! I am hoping my original post and pictures viewed more than 60,000 times brought more business“

“this food was delicious! Beautiful ambience. Great place to hang out and eat dinner. Food came out quick. The salsa and guacamole was flavorful. Everything about it was an absolutely great experience five stars.“

“Oswaldo is a true staple in the Portland culinary community. always providing us with amazing food and creative combinations. thank you“

“Very cute inside Friendly staff Good drinks And yummy food“

“Incredible culinary experience! Each dish is delicious and you will also have a wonderful explanation of the ingredients.“

“Food was delicious, we'll prepared with a lovely presentation. I got the El Sinaloense brunch plate and wow, the flavors of the pork were incredible and the eggs cooked perfectly. I'm a bean fanatic and this is one of the best refritos flavor in Portland. My jamaica iced tea was perfect, just the right amount of tart and sweet. The staff were incredibly nice and went out of their way to suggest items and make sure we were comfortable. We live in SE and rarely cross the river to eat. I will cross the river for this restaurant any day. I look forward to returning soon!“

“To die for food, my family’s new spot for Mexican food!!“

“Great food, atmosphere and awesome service. 😋💕“

“My tendency would be to come here for the pupusas because pupusas this good are not that prevalent in Portland. These are excellent and or formed fresh from scratch. The price per pupusa is slightly higher than average but these are bigger than average. I'm a big eater and made a full lunch out of two pupusas plus small chips and salsa.

Edit upon further visits, the Chile Relleno is one of the biggest and best in PDX. SEE PHOTO“

“We love the vibe on 23rd avenue and stopped in for lunch. All but myself ordered appetizers to share. The bacon wrapped jalapenos were awesome as were the other ones I tried, but my enchiladas were a big disappointment. The flavor was unlike any other I have eaten, and disagreeable to me. The Mexican rice was crispy and crunchy also with an odd flavor, and the black beans were mediocre. All in all, my choice was a bust. The service was good, and liked the decor, so I would probably give it another chance, but I won't be ordering the enchiladas!“

“they were bomb a.f! no lie! 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“I love this place! They have the very best tamales!! I've been a customer since 2021 for my winter Solstice gathering.Their tamales are a tradition.“

“Great People and Great Food!“

“The greatest place on earth..!!!! Nuff said...“

“totally delicious. chicken tinga is amazing, portion sizes are huge and affordable. the salsas are indeed locas- try the creamy jalapeño. i would buy bottles of that stuff! very friendly staff as well, they made us some special eggs to accommodate an allergy and it was awesome.“

“Just tried Neza for the first time today and got the Neza's Alambre with chicken in a tortilla, burrito style and holy wow was it delicious! One of the best burritos I’ve had not only in Portland but in life in general. I will be recommending this place to everyone and can’t wait to come back! Very friendly service as well and great hot sauces too! Don’t think; just go try it for yourself!“

“Woah. Damn good burrito.

Was worried about going here after reading some reviews but decided to go for it and am happy I did.

Went to San Fran and San Diego a few weeks ago and had the famous burrito shops there. All a bit overhyped but still delicious.

This can compete with em for sure. Maybe the bad reviews were due to a severe off day or something. For me and my wife we’re going back 100%.“

“Wow! Honestly, best tacos we’ve had in PDX. Great service and fresh ingredients. We had the taco plate, with asada - the asada was crispy and flavorful. The tortillas were handmade! Rice and beans were good as well. We also tried the tacos dorados with potato. They were nice and warm, crunchy, everything was just great!!!“

“Beat tacos this side of the Mississippi!!!! No joke this taco place has the very best flavors and it’s meat are perfectly cooked! I totally recommend piñata takos!!!“

“We love Nutri taco. They offer great Mexican food and because we are a mixed diet household, one of us can get vegan while the other one eats omni. The rosemary garlic fries are amazing. I highly recommend it to anyone.“

“Muy buena comida .. por excelencia y el servicio muy rápido ..“

“they are always great and nice and have amazing food 😄“

“Están riquísimos los tacos !!!“

“FINALLY FOUND THE BEST STREET TACOS OF PORTLAND!!!!
Definitely going back and as this was my 1st trip, I'm going to encourage all my taco-fiends to go too! If you're thinking about it, STOP THINKING and just GO!!!! you'll not regret it.
The only con was the Horchata was a little bit too sweet and I had to split mine into 3 servings and add my own milk.“

“Visited this great new addition to our neighborhood in SW Portland. Have tried the Taco Supreme, Quesadilla, and Cochinita Tacos and look forward to working my way through the other items on the menu. The Cochinita dishes showcase wonderful delicious shredded pork as the protein. The Horchata was also extremely well made and one of the best I've had in Portland. Mama Chio Rocks!“

“The Texicano bowl was fantastic. Everything tasted fresh and was obviously made with love. On top of that, the service was delightful and the wait was low (even though they were freshly preparing the steak with my meal) If you find yourself in the Hawthorne Asylum food carts, absolutely give them a try!“

“Awesome food and great customer service“

“Muy ricos los guajolotes de 10 muy recomendables“

“Will be going back. So delicious!“

“By far the best Torta I’ve had in the area ! Check them out ! 10/10 recommended!!“
