Took almost 30 minutes for my two breakfast burritos to be ready and they were super weak. There's at least 3 other food carts in this pod that have significantly better breakfast burritos, so don't bother with this place. Waste

First time visiting Cartlandia and Mis Abuelos was recommended to us. We ordered the PDX Burrito, 2 carnitas tacos, 1 asada taco and a carnitas quesadilla. We waited about 20 minutes for the food to come out even though it was pretty slow. Got home with the food and got started. The pros - the seasoning on everything was exceptional! The green and red sauces were also amazing and I used every last drop. The portions were good sized with plenty of meat. The cons - the asada meat was tough and I had to pull the unchewable pieces out - not a classy look. The asada taco was a slab of meat on the tortilla- again not as tender as hoped. While there were some great aspects about this food, I probably would not return.

Had the pastor burrito & it was the best Burrito I’ve had in Portland so far. Looking forward to coming back!

Let me start by saying I'm usually pretty generous with the way I rate Restaurants. I really how important Yelp is to there success. In this case I'm giving Mis Abuelos a one rating. My wife and me orders a beef burrito and three curritos tacos. They were out of tacos Al pastor. The currito tacos were filled with under rendered pork skin fat some cilantro and raw onions. No taste at all and questionable as to whether I should eat it or not. My wife had the beef burrito and literally took one bite and said she couldn't eat anymore. I ate a few bites and the meet tasted like game meet. Very strange taste for beef. Needless to say it was unappetizing and the burrito ended up in the trash. We love Mexican food and have spent a fair amount of time working and eating food in OAXACA Mexico. Thai food truck missed the mark big time. We won't be eating any Mis Abuelos any more.

This place is the real deal. Barbacoa is just like what you get in Hidalgo. They are on the next level up of Mexican food. I don't know anywhere else you can eat like this in all of Portland.

The only thing I ever get is the PDX burrito, and it’s my current #1 burrito anywhere. It’s good sized, though not too big that it sacrifices quality. The asada is considerably better than most other food trucks, and there’s some kind of sauce or salsa that gives it a tiny bit of heat. My only complaint would be that they don’t have and avocado sauce, though I usually just go buy some from a neighboring truck.

The Barbacoa here is the best and everything I guess it is too, I love the hand made tortillas.

Delicious food! We tried their shrimp tacos, carne asada tacos and flan. The shrimp taco came with avocado! Cooked fresh to order and everything like avocado, shrimp and lime looked high quality. We will be regulars from now on! The flan is not a small serving :) They are friendly and currently have buzzer gadgets to tell you when your order is ready.
