" From the minute I walked into La Real, I was greeted with the tantalizing smells of authentic Mexican cuisine. I've tried quite a few items from the menu, and each time I leave more impressed than the last. The service is friendly, but on weekends I find it can be a bit slow during rush hours. Regardless, I highly recommend the shrimp tacos with their special crema sauce. The prices are reasonable for such high-quality food, making it a true gem in the neighborhood! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at La Real! The vibrant decor combined with the positive vibes made this a perfect choice for my dinner with friends. Their carne asada was mouthwatering, and the salsa bar was a highlight with various fresh salsas to choose from. The service was prompt and friendly. My suggestion would be to try their breakfast offerings, as I've heard fantastic things! I will certainly be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Hands down, La Real is a must-visit spot! I had a mix of tacos and was thoroughly impressed. The flavors were bold and authentically Mexican; I've tasted the difference, and this place nails it! Their late-night hours are perfect for a causal meal after a night out as well. The staff behind the counter are always cheerful, even at odd hours! Yes, it gets busy, but the service remains commendable. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having experienced several Mexican restaurants in Portland, La Real really stands out. The dishes are made with fresh ingredients and each bite is flavorful. I love their options for customizing my meal at the salsa bar, which is always well-stocked. The staff here are friendly but can sometimes be overwhelmed during rush hours. I appreciate their efforts and can’t wait to come back for more tasty tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Exploring new restaurants, I stumbled upon La Real and decided to give it a shot. I was thrilled with the quality of the tacos and how fresh all the ingredients tasted. The setup is casual and relaxed, perfect for a laid-back dinner. I noticed, however, that they didn’t offer much in terms of desserts, which is something I usually look for after a savory meal. Nevertheless, I left content, and I'd recommend this place to anyone craving authentic cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to La Real with high hopes because of all the positive things I’ve heard. Sadly, my experience was not what I envisioned. The al pastor burrito I had lacked flavor and I felt it was overpriced for what I received. Service was okay, but my order got mixed up, leading to a minor inconvenience. The environment itself was pleasant, but there was definitely room for improvement in the actual food. I might try it again, but I’ll be cautious. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my second visit to La Real, and I have to say I love their breakfast offerings! The breakfast burrito I ordered packed in loads of flavor and the homemade salsa was the cherry on top. The staff was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is welcoming and lively with great music playing. My only complaint is that it was quite packed when I visited; it gets busy, but it’s worth it for the food! " (*Curated Review*)
