My last night in Portland, I wanted to check out an arcade. I knew the arcade had food, but I wasn't in the mood for vegan food. But, I saw that there was a taquería next door.I'm so glad I stopped in.You order at the counter and food is brought to you. I asked for cheese enchiladas. I was asked if I wanted meat with those, but I grew up with just cheese enchiladas, so I didn't ask for meat. I did order a carne asada taco. No fountain drinks. I hate drinking canned/bottled sodas. There are many mixed drinks, but I'm not a drinker. To the right of the register, there is a big dispenser for water. The carne asada taco was not worth the money I paid for it. Delicious, but it was 2 bites. I could have eaten it in one bite, however. Avocado salsa was nice and creamy. The salsa picante was spicy and had great flavor. Black beans are not my favorite, but in the absence of pinto beans, I will eat them. The rice was super fluffy. I added some of the salsas to the rice. Those enchiladas were exceptional; perfect in every way. Next time I head to the arcade, I'd happily return to this taco shop for some enchiladas.

This little shop is so authentic! I love their birria tacos, but the rest of their tacos are also delicious. In addition, I had the pollo, asada, and pastor tacos. Add a little bit of the habenero sauce on top and these are fire. The guacamole was perfectly balanced with lime and cilantro. Will definitely come back another time!

I wanted chips and salsa the salsa was free but they charge me five dollars for this small plate of chips. Ordered three tacos. They were OK. Tortillas were really greasy and small.

My friends & I wanted to try a New Mexican food joint out & we stumbled upon Fabos Tacos on our search & decided to give it a shot. It's located in China Town. Parking is street parking only, since it's downtown. The restaurant has a cool vibe, more modern with touches of traditional taqueria decor. The food was good! I unfortunately did not get to try the al pastor since we went later in the evening & they didn't have anymore, but they are known for their al pastor. No complaints about the food, everything tasted good. The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star review is the price, I do feel it is a little expensive especially for the amount of food we got. $4 each for the small sides of beans & rice was a lot in my opinion. As well as $4 for the small cup of horchata I got. The hot sauces were flavorful but lacked heat. Which can be a good or bad thing depending on your preference. Ordering was easy, they had menus at the register. The cashier was nice & friendly & brought our food to our table. Overall, the food was good but I don't know if I'll be coming here often due to the price & it just being far from where I live. But if you are in the downtown/China Town area, definitely give them a try!

Soyrizo tacos are so delicious! 3 soyrizo tacos for $12, which is a steal! Make sure to support local businesses because they're staff are so lovely and kind. Love the lighting inside. It's super fun with neon lights and Latin pop!

I cannot stop talking about how incredible this place is. For all you vegetarians out there, get the soyrizo sope plate. So flavorful especially adding their green chile sauce. Perfect amount of serving for one and the crema and quesofresco complimented the soyrizo. One thing I wish they had was offering sour cream on the size for my arroz. Looking to eat like a hot mess and munch on some meaty soft goodness, order the quesobirria! Your mouth will not be disappointed with the juicy flavorful goodness. Oh and don't forget to drizzle the green chile sauce in there. Two birrias is literally enough for one person. Hitting three birrias might make you want to unbutton your pants.Also don't miss on the margaritas! I ordered one as a special request which was mezcal and guava. Panty dropper right there. This is going to be my go to spot and I recommend taking your out of towner friends to this spot. Lastly, service is incredible. The staff is so welcoming, they really do make you feel at home.

Finally, a taco restaurant Angelino like me approves! Their birria and consume were oily, dripping fantastic. Highly recommend their fiery red sauce that will blow a roof through your mouth. Al pastor only on Friday and Saturday and will definitely be back for that
