" If you're in Portland and craving authentic Mexican food, look no further than El Goloso. The moment I stepped up to the food cart, I was greeted with warmth by the staff. I ordered the chicken tinga burrito and it was enormous! The flavors were spot on, and the avocado crema was the perfect touch. I never thought I could find such rich and delightful Mexican flavors in a food cart, but this place exceeded my expectations. Every bite reminded me of my grandmother's cooking back in Mexico. I'll definitely be coming back to explore more of their menu. " (*Curated Review*)
