“This place is AWESOME!! I'm frightened for my waste line now that I've discovered this absolute deliciousness so close to home! The Birria queso tacos were pretty flavorful as well as the Al Pastor tacos. The carnitas tacos were 3rd fave in my trio of tacos. Will be back ASAP to try more things!“
“This place is so good!!! We got the chicken burrito and steak burrito. They were big enough to split between the 3 of us. The taste of them both were top notch. Seriously excellent taste. Fresh handmade tortillas??? Yo, you’re trippin if you think this place is mid. Will definitely be coming back to try the habanero sauce. Tried the red and green and was blown away with the flavor for both. Highly recommend!!!“

“El Jefe Mexican Grill (Beaverton) has some of the greatest grilled chicken I have ever tasted. I usually get the whole chicken meal, which feeds four people perfectly, Price between $24 to $25). The meal comes with sauces, rice, beans, and tortillas. If you're going to feed more than four people, I recommend getting the XL Whole Chicken meal.“
“TACONTENTO came to our neighborhood for our “social distance” Cinco de Mayo party! They arrived promptly, had amazing communication, were so incredibly friendly and personable, and cooked AMAZING food! ❤️ We can’t thank them enough!!“
“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.“
“Great spot! Came in the early morning to order (10) breakfast burritos for some customers of mine. There was 1 person working and he crushed it! The quality was amazing service was great! My favorite part was they used more of a country style potato which my opinion makes a breakfast burrito that much better. Another thing the size of the burrito was huge!!! Highly recommend the breakfast burritos. I haven’t had anything else yet but I will be back when I’m in the area!!“
“We came in hungry in a Sunday and about half of the tables were occupied. The employee was friendly and helpful with the menu. We ordered nachos with Al pastor and the birria plate, they were about $13-$14 each. The food was fresh and came out hot and fairly quickly for how busy they were. We appreciated that they brought over bottles of their 3 salsas, they were all very different with varying levels of heat but all were tasty and full of flavor. The atmosphere is definitely one of the best in town as it's very clean and bright inside with tvs playing sports. The prices are a little steeper than other similar restaurants, it would be nice if the birria plate included rice/beans instead of being just the tacos. Overall the meal here was enjoyable and we will return!“
“I had a torta which was good but different, its not your normal mexican tortas you'd expect. Its not a bad thing if you don't mind it when there a twist to traditional Mexican food then you will like the food and flavors there. Its just not what the typical flavors are when your expectations are authentic Mexican food. Its definitely worth trying.“
“I asked O.G. to cater a company picnic for 40 people. The were super easy to work with. They estimated food for the 40 plus condiments and provided paper plates, cups for consume, silverware, etc.... We did pick the food up because the picnic was in Gales Creek, but they had everything ready to go AND they allowed me to make adjustments to the order up to 24 hours before pick up. Everyone RAVED about the food and several employees are going to be trying more of their menu! THANKS O.G.“
“Good food , I got the bulgogi and rice as well as the fried chicken , both prepare well. The bulgogi seems like two-three meals, and the chicken was crispy and delicious I recommend try the sauce first to make sure it's right for you. Definitely will be back for a burger“
“Delicious food. Best torta I've had in Oregon. My husband said his breakfast burrito was phenomenal. The guy who worked the window had such positive energy that it changed my mood( I was having a rough day ) . Literal contagious joy. Truly cannot recommend them enough“
“I got Al Pastor & Carnitas street tacos. Kiddo got carnitas gordita, mom got the chicken tacos and we shared an order of the chicken flautas. We all tried everything. I'd pass on the tacos and carnita/al pastor meat in general. Carnitas were bland and fatty and Al Pastor was meh, not bad but not great. Tortillas were very good but not enough cilantro/onion and the limes had 0 juice. That doesnt have anything to do with their cooking but details are important when doing something so simple yet delicious when done right.The flautas were out of this world! 10/10 SO good. The gordita was good and big for the price but I think it would have been perfect with their chicken.I'll come back for the gorditas but filled with chicken and would honestly try other things with chicken as the protein.“
“Food and service were very nice. I usually don't drive near Allen & Hall, but tonight I did and was happy to to stop by this truck. Unless you go to a nice food truck pod, most food trucks aren't in a nice setting, so atmosphere was the only downside. Their hottest sauce left a nice lingering tingle on my lips. I might come back just for the sauce!“
“I was in a neighborhood I do not normally frequent, and got to try this place. It is in My top two taco carts in Oregon, as of now. One Asada Taco, One Pastor to keep my judgement fair.The meat was obviously marinated over night, if not longer, and grilled in the moment making it full of flavor, but what really made this taco visit, was quantity meeting quality. Loads of meat, enough to make four tacos from the two double tortilla wrapped goodies, but also all the amenities, such as, grilled onion, cilantro, a dash of raw onions, a roasted Jalapeneo pepper, green and red salsas too thick to poor efficiently, and attentive staffing.If you are in the area, two tacos cost me $8 after tip and there was more food than most taco carts provide. Worth a visit and your money.“
“The owner is always nice, never in a bad mood, will joke around and that’s makes you feel welcomed, over all the food is great, the tacos are always good especially early mornings, place will sell out sometimes, great place to eat on the “
“I've had their supreme burrito with chicken twice and it's good! Kind of on the salty side and they don't always get the ingredients mixed well so you might get halfway through with no guac but it's tasty and HUGE! They also have a nice outdoor area so I'd be inclined to go back and dine in during warm months.“
“We just chanced upon this truck while we were in the area. And it was a pleasant surprise. Plenty of parking in that square. There's a nice covered area where you can order and it had a nice detailed menu there. The guy taking our order answered our questions really nicely. There is some secluded seating nearby too. The tacos were delicious, even the veggie ones. Will definitely come here more often!“
“Small and quaint Mexican food restaurant. They have a full bar and seating inside and outside. There's soda drinks are canned, they do not have a fountain. Clean, great customer service. They are closed on wednesdays.Kid-friendliness: Kids menus are cheese quesadilla, mini burrito, burrito bowl. They are $5 for whichever you get.“
