    I had a lot of hope for this place. The menu was quite large, it took me a while to figure out what I wanted. Let me first say this place was decent but I'm not sure I would go back because there is definitely better.

    I appreciated that they had Micheladas- I ordered one with Sol. They served in a standard large glass, the mix was good, could have used more lime but other than that it was a good start. They also give you a small bowl of chips and salsa - not really an even ratio but it did the trick for me as I came very hungry.

    I ordered the Mojado burrito with grilled chicken half covered in green sauce and half covered in red sauce. The sauce was good, one was decently spicy, I still requested a side of their spicy salsa which is habanero based. I'll be honest, I was really not impressed with this burrito. It lacked in flavor. I was trying to imagine how this burrito would even hold up without the sauce on top. As per usual with wet burritos I used a knife and fork to cut, the issue with this particular burrito was the tortilla was so hard to cut at the bottom. The only thing I had was a butter knife and it really wasn't cutting the extremely hard pieces of tortilla. It turned into a mess and the tortilla was just useless so I ate everything else. Super disappointing. I would say the cheese on top was lacking and I pretty much ran out of sauce I was so hungry and used all the sauce on the plate to drench each bite.

    My boyfriend got the enchiladas and those were pretty good. Average enchiladas, not bad at all just . The green sauce they have in the bottle was amazing, I think it's the same sauce on the burrito. It tasted different and that was pretty much the best.

    I liked the atmosphere here. Lots of mirrors which I though was odd, made it feel a lot bigger than it was. The service is kind of lacking but it's not really their fault, the lady taking orders was also cleaning all the tables off.

    The prices are okay but over 3 bucks for a taco kinda sucks.

    Pozole, shrimp taco, super burrito and beer for $23!  You can't beat those prices.  

    Popped in for a quick bite.  Good smelling food and a pleasant atmosphere.  They had some college basketball on and the young people inside were enjoying it.  The service was friendly and the food came out pretty quick.  Great portions and pricing.  I would rate them a 4.5.  The dingers were that they had a full bar but no mixer like cranberry juice to go with the vodka.  Also, the Pozole was missing some flavor.  Like, I used all the add-ins and asked for cilantro, but it still was missing something taste-wise.

    I would come back, but stick with their tacos and burritos.  Much better flavors.

    Best taco salad in Portland. Not greasy, with the perfect combo of ingredients leaving you wanting nothing more. I'm almost embarrassed how much I go here. Don't even get me started on their habanero sauce. Pro tip is to try it!
