50 Best Taco Restaurants in Portland

“This is my favorite place for a burrito and it’s not even close. The people who run it are friendly, the burrito is huge, and they don’t skimp on the meat. The ingredients are fresh and delicious and the salsas are hot and wonderful. If it were closer to my house I would be there all the time. But it’s good enough that I don’t mind driving 30 minutes from time to time. Brought my wife and kid here today and they both loved it. We also tried a Cabeza taco and it was the best I’ve ever had.

Just saw a one star review someone left a week ago and that person is out of their mind. They have no taste. Ignore them. This place is wonderful.“

“Really good food. My litmus test any time I try a new Mexican place is a carne asada taco and theirs was exceptionally good. The meat was quality - no gristle - and perfectly marinated. They must cook on a smoker or something because there is a smokey note that adds to the already strong basics on flavor.

The salsas are also delicious.

It is expensive at $5+ for a taco, but they're on the larger size and everything is fresh and high quality. It's worth it if it fits your budget.“

“Adela and her brother run a tight ship here, serving up generous and tasty tacos. My husband loves the asada tacos and I crave the burrito bowl without meat regularly. With some salsa and a coke, it's by far our favorite meal of the week.“

“Absolutely amazing food, and multiple vegan options! They’re so kind while you’re ordering, and the wait was only about 5 minutes.

The burritos and Panchos are so good! Its filling but not super heavy ❤️. The outside seating is so nice in the spring and summer!“

“I recommend this restaurant, I'm coming from Seattle WA with my family and we went to eat there, very good food, good customer service, everything clean. I invite you to visit them, you will love it.“

“Absolutely loved Fabos Tacos! I got the Birria plate and horchata. And man it was fire, If you love a flavorful horchata to go along side your amazing tacos and consomé, or just amazing food in general. This place will have you.“

“Just moved into the area, was stoked to see Harder Days coffee open up; and imagine my surprise when I saw these taco truck and smoothie truck next door.

Enjoying a draft beer or cortado or kombucha while listening to the dulcet tones of Sandy Blvd while you eat your tacos is certainly a bonus, but this review is about the main course.

I ordered a pastor taco and an asada taco. Total came out to $2.50 which is solid these days.

The pastor meat was a tad on the chewy side but not bad at all. Great flavor. Carne asada had a nice chew and char. The tortillas were cooked perfectly and gave a nice texture to the whole thing. Salsa roja was my favorite kind, maybe some type of chile de arbol or something else roasted to give it a nice opaque dark red.

I’ll definitely be coming back here!“

“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!“

“Deliciosa agua de pepino y de Jamaica y los deliciosos SOPES DE BIRRIA DE RES y QUESOTACOS, y… los STREETACOS, ATENCIÓN ESMERADA Y SERVICIAL.👍“

“On Wednesday, we made a detour to Tito’s Taquitos Swan Island in N Portland.
This was a clean, quick and friendly lunch spot located in the Swan Island industrial area. They have indoor and outdoor seating, with lots of parking.
My husband ordered one rib eye taco on blue corn tortilla, one garlic butter shrimp taco and 4 crispy hand-rolled potato filled taquitos topped with braised beef.
They also offered green, red, or habanero sauces.
Each bite has their flavor, texture, components and the balance to satisfy our taste, we love it.“

“Excellent tacos and margaritas.“

“Came here for lunch and made me a forever fan of the brisket tacos. In my over 50 years of life I have never tasted anything that comes close to these tacos! AMAZINGLY PERFECT!! They nailed it!!“

“We went for lunch it was right next to our hotel. A very small place inside with only countertop seating and picnic tables outside. Good prices only 2.00 per taco, the tacos had so much meat in them! The birria was so tender and spicy they were delicious. The asada and carnitas were good too. I would definitely come back!“

“The breakfast burrito is amazing. We had to split it, it was so stuffed. We got it with steak and were definitely satisfied! :)“

“The consume is so good you wanna dunck everything in it!!! Some of the most meat filled taco you'll ever have. went on a hot day and they had some mister's with just the right amount of water coming out. Best place for a hot relaxing day!!! “

“Absolutely amazing ! Service and quality of food is incredible! Everytime ive come here its consistently delicious. One of the best taquerias in gresham/portland area! Also the pumpkin flower quesadillas are too good, if you can give em a try before the season is over❤️“

“Ok, this is what I've been looking for around here! They are legit. I got the maniac torta and all the salsas to try. The asada was seasoned excellent. The veggies and cheese were fresh, and the telera was perfect. The habanero salsa was insane! I'll be going back for sure.“

“Excelente comida muy deliciosa delicioso todo buen servicio el dueño muy amable muy atento servicio rápido“

“First time visiting this amazing place on Thursday October 17, 2024. I had been following them on instagram and couldn’t wait to try them out. Let me tell you there Fish tacos, Shrimp tacos and Gobernador (Shrimp) are absolutely amazing. Every bite I took it was like I was back in Ensenada, Baja California. I was telling them I am from San Diego and miss the fish tacos from there. If you are in the area you really have to try this place out, super friendly and love the area. I know I will be coming back soon!“

“First time visit last night with six of us and they are very nicely opened up the toast restaurant and let us sit in there and we had such a nice evening and the waiter was so friendly and wonderful and really helped us out to get acquainted with the offerings we tried the vegetarian potstickers and also the various vegetarian tacos which were really good. Later we each had a vegetarian Ramen and every single one was delicious and I especially liked the one with the tofu and the hard-boiled egg and the spinach. They brought a small container of warm sake for me which I really liked with a tiny cup I got to choose. OverallI gave it a big 10+ and I would definitely eat there again and probably will go back pretty soon. The main thing is to try to find a time when the parking is not completely full in the area be prepared to park a ways away and walk which is good for us so it really wasn’t a problem.“

“After the big winter storm of 2024, my apartment complex had El Sazon, come out. I liked watching them prepare our food in front of us, even if it did take some time. I don’t eat out much.I ordered 4 street tacos for $12.00. They were delicious.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food“

“Good eats. Spider Tacos are my fav. Decided to swing by this morn after working a nite shift cause Google & Yelp business hours listed 8am. I'm tired, hungry but waited an additional 20 min to order in addition to having to wait for my order. Other than that no real complaints.“

“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!!“

“Good people, nice family. Stop and chat while your food is prepared. The food is great, the usual taco truck offerings, done well. This is my go-to spot, walkable for me. I only go to Victorico's or Javier's when the lines are long or this truck is closed (or if I really want chile relleno).

Vegetarian options: No real veggie options.“

“The food was delicious. The service was impeccable. The atmosphere is lovely.“

“The food was amazing! We went for the tacos and quesadillas, the meat was packed with flavor, and the salsas offered a perfect range of spice to satisfy every taste. The ambience was relaxed, especially since we went in the midafternoon. The service was impressively quick, even with a few other tables around. It was a great experience all around! FYI - They do prefer cash.“

“The food was very tasty and we enjoyed sitting out on the patio.“

“Do yourself a favor and eat here, often. Everything I have gotten from them is absolutely delicious. More than once have I walked up with my order in mind, only to change it last minute to get one of their daily specials, and I have never regretted it. My god the Tamales are excellent... and this Birria Burrito I just got was absolutely perfect.“

I highly recommended this place to anyone who is in search of a new place to eat. You won't be disappointed.“

“The food at this TacoTime is Fing phenomenal! I don't know how they do it, but it has a gourmet taste that you wouldn't expect from fast food. Also, they roll perfect burritos, they're nice and tight, where you can bite into the. Without making a mess. I was so impressed I wanted to share my experience. I hope they remain in business forever 😃“

“Come here several times a week and the food is amazing. It's always a little bit of a wait but worth it. I like that they have vegetarian options. Wish they were open on the weekends and not clear what their hours actually are but always happy when I catch them open.“
