We went for the 1st time tonight with friends from out of state. Lots of friends had recommended going. Well it was Amazing!We all shared the large plate. The BBQ meats were so good and the sides did not disappoint. The corn bread was out of this world. This place is a must!We will be returning to try all of their delicious foods!

Wow! Had dinner here last night, delicoius! We had to wait for about 45 minutes for a walk-in so would reccomend a reservation in advance. We were sat at the bar and had great service from the bartenders with fun drinks. But WOW, the best fish taco (Baja Fish Taco on menu) I have had in ME. After living in southern California for many years, these tacos were comaprable to any taco there. My daughter had the brisket tacos which were delicious as well. overall a great expirence with yummy food!!

Parking: On street parking is the only option. Depending on the time of day, it may be difficult to find parking right next to the restaurant, but there are plenty of side streets and you should be able to find parking within a 10 minute walk.Wheelchair accessibility: You will be limited on the rear deck, but the entrance and main dining room are at street level. There are bar height tables up front, but the main dining will have standard height seating.

If you want a 'good ole smoker feed', go to a roadside pit, if you want a new look on BBQ, this is the place! Food was excellent (not as spicy as I would like) with beautiful presentation and great wait staff. Finding a parking spot was horrible and not accessible to any slight mobility issue.Parking: We parked up a side street, pay park was $14 an hour

Beautiful food and awesome atmosphere.The prices are up there compared to some other options in Portland (some that are even across the street or down the street from Terlingua. But, don't fret... this place has all the specialty feel that was left by the predecessor (Silly's Restaurant) and maybe a bit more. Sitting outside can accommodate a four-legged friend and provides you with some of the most unique dining in Portland. The food packs a punch and certainly is something to write home about.

Terrible experience. Waited for a table for over 30min while others got seated with no reservation. Getting ignored as if we weren’t even there.

My husband and I celebrated his birthday last night here with 6 of our other friends and it just wasn't a great experience. It was way too cold to be sitting outside even with the heaters and our food was luke warm. My mixed drink was way too strong and had to be re made.

Nothing better than sitting at the bar on a Saturday night for queso and brisket tacos.

What a fun place to eat. We sat on the deck under heaters. I'd say bring a coat for this. The seats are heated and there are heaters and wind blocking but there was still a chill in some seats at our table of four.We tried out the drinks, dinner and dessert. I had chili. It was thick with beef and really filling. Oddly my daughter pointed out that the chili didn't have beans. Hmm.We did a little shopping on the way out and got some coco for home.Overall I enjoyed the experience and my dinner and bites from others. We had really good service also. They really hit all the marks for me.

Yummiest food in town! Meat focused, but there’s always a vegetarian option or two—and they’re good.

First and best smoked bbq experience definitely recommend stopping in for lunch or dinner and getting a bbq board and a drink.
