" This place is truly the embodiment of great Mexican food in Portland. The tacos were incredible, with fresh ingredients and are clearly made with care. The only downside was the short wait for seating, as it is quite a popular spot, but I understand why, great overall experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great experience, but there were some minor issues. Our food was delicious, especially the carne asada, but I felt the portions were slightly smaller than expected. The staff was friendly and attentive, but we had to wait a little for our drinks. Overall, a solid choice for Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)
