Wow, these are the best homemade tortilla chips I've ever had! I'm addicted and will be back. The tacos were great too. The salsa, guacamole, all of it. Like so good! I live over an hour away and would drive out here to eat again and again. Atmosphere was great. Employees are friendly. They have some outside seating too. Parking was kind of a pain, but well worth it.

Walking in, the place was humming with conversation. Places to sit everywhere, although from outside, it looked small. All the eatery spots in the area, and we are so glad we picked here! Customer service was on point. An array of different individuals with smiles ready to help you choose from a great and cost effective menu. We had the carne asada tacos and chicken tacos and kids mixed rice and bean bowl. Everything was awesome and I would highly recommend stopping in!

Empanada for dumpling week. Spicy, crispy, super tasty. Definitely one of our top 3 favorites for everywhere we went. On the pricey side but it's PDX so it's about average. They definitely would've sold us another serving at a lower price. 10/10 of course. 9.5 for Whitney. Also, the tacos here are amazing. We love this place.

Such a great vibe, kind of feels like you're in a small town in Mexico stopping by for tacos. Our food was delicious, service was nice and prompt. The ceviche is a must order! Tacos were great and my bf loved his flautas. Definitely recommend, we came for an early dinner so it wasn't too busy. Definitely recommend and we'll be back.
