" I came here with high expectations after hearing rave reviews, and I was not disappointed! The wet burrito is packed with flavor, and I have never had anything like their salsas before. The environment is super laid-back, making it a perfect spot for lunch. The only downside was the wait during peak hours, but it was absolutely worth it. I felt at home here and will definitely support this local business often. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been trying to find good Mexican food since moving to Portland and El Chisme Sabroso might just be it! The carne asada tacos are incredible, full of flavor and served with a side of fresh salsa. I also loved the friendly atmosphere created by the owners. You can tell they really care about their customers. I plan on returning to try their famous birria burrito next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love this place! They've nailed the homemade feel in every dish. Their tamales are a must-try; I think they might be the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is casual yet inviting, perfect for a quick bite. Each time I visit, the service is consistently wonderful; they really treat you like part of the family. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really enjoyed my experience at El Chisme Sabroso. Everything I ordered was fresh and tasty. The homemade salsas truly elevate the dishes. The staff were very kind and attentive, making me feel like a valued customer. I had the chance to grab my food and enjoy it in a nearby park, which made my afternoon even better. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Mexican fare in a relaxed setting. " (*Curated Review*)

" I happened to find El Chisme Sabroso while wandering around the neighborhood, and I am so glad I did! The moment I took my first bite of the carne asada burrito, I was transported to a different world. The flavors were vibrant, and the tortilla was fresh and soft. The staff were incredibly friendly, offering me samples of their homemade salsas, which were just out of this world. This is now my go-to spot for authentic Mexican food in Portland. I highly recommend it!. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I am in love with this place! The food is incredible every time I go, and the staff treats you like family. I have sampled many different dishes, but their mole pork tamale blew me away; it had the perfect amount of spice and was beautifully crafted with fresh ingredients. I have introduced several friends to this gem, and they all share my enthusiasm. I could eat here every day! My only wish is that they had more seating as it can get packed during lunch hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a big fan of this food truck! They have the best variety of tacos and burritos around. Plus, everyone who works there is always so nice and welcoming. The only con is the wait during busy hours; it can be a bit frustrating at times. That said, the food is definitely worth it! I ordered the filled burrito and left completely satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)
