Gonzalez Taqueria

Definitely one of the better low-key trad mexican food places in Portland. Simple but tasty food, fantastic prices, and I am always greeted with a kind smile. Wish this place the best - am so glad I'm in the neighborhood to enjoy their food often.

This is probably one of the best taco trucks in Portland. You will notice the family feel and outstanding service instantly. They have chorizo breakfast burritos, burritos, quesadillas, tortas, and tacos. They have lengua, asada, pollo, and more. Highly recommend!!

Meat is soft, succulent and juicy. Full flavor with cooked onions and cilantro in the burrito. Amazing quality. Went for lunch 1pm on Friday and there was no wait. Will be back again and again.

A taco cart at the corner of Interstate and Killingsworth? Shoot, all you gotta do is hop off the Yellow line and into a gas station parking lot and you've got some pretty decent Mexican going on. Nothing is ever wrong with that.I will admit, this place was hit and miss on some items. I also noticed that for a taco cart, people were coming up that had ordered ahead. Unusual for a cart, but it sped some folks along. Tacos, burritos, tortas, the good stuff. I wanted to try some different things so I went with three tacos with asada, pastor and lengua with sides of refried beans and rice. The asada and pastor were really good and had plenty of flavor, the rice and beans were standard and also pretty good. I liked the two hot sauces. The green was actually the hotter of the two and had a bit of a lime taste to it. Really nice. The red was milder but also had a good flavor profile. The only low point was the lengua. Not a lot of places in town do lengua and I'm not sure why I like lengua tacos but this meat was cut up into large chunks and just didn't have a great taste to them. In fact there really wasn't much taste to them, they were fairly bland. So I was a bit bummed at that. Not to say that I won't try this place again when I'm up in the area, I just probably won't be trying that again soon.Even though I got to the place after the normal lunch rush, there was still a wait for the food, so maybe that call ahead option is a good idea. For the most part I was happy with my meal, I'll try to get back soon to try a torta or burrito.Enjoy.

I can't say that it lived up to the hype I keep hearing, but I did enjoy a tasty pork torta! My wife had the carnitas burrito, no onion. We wished there was cheese on it, it felt a bit bland without the onion. It was definitely busy when we went, including a pair of humans who decided not to wear masks and tried to talk to everyone which made me very uncomfortable, but has nothing to do with Gonzalez. We waited 20-25 minutes for our food. Torta was filling, flavorful, just didnt have anything special to it as several other tortas I love in town: little conejo, guero to name a few. It was great, but I'm not raving about it.

Best taqueria in town, in my opinion. Excellent good, very fair cost, and exceptionally nice people.

Best place to get Mexican food in PDX!! Incredibly friendly family run business. I've been coming here for years and refuse to go anywhere else. Service is exceptional and the food never disappoints.

Simply the best Mexican food truck in Portland, period. I've been coming here for years and get it at least once a week. Abby was always so nice, and now Moises has taken over the register. Carlos is amazing on the flat top, and CJ expedites every order. The meats are seasoned very well, and the beans and rice are subtle yet nuanced. They pair with the meat very well, and everything is priced incredibly affordable. From tacos to tortas, burritos to plates, this is the place.

I must preface this review with my disappointment in yelp for not allowing me to swear. It's quite possible the only way I can get across the point of HOW DAMN GOOD this taqueria in a truck truly is. Every time I go here, and I'm handed that bag of food from the extremely kind souls who operate this establishment, my faith in humanity is slightly restored. I can taste the love in every bite that I wash down my mighty gullet with a crisp ice cold Twisted Tea, and I smile, almost as big as the one I'm greeted with at their front window, smears across my face from ear to ear. If everyone in this god forsaken city could sit down and talk their problems out over a fiesta of these magical tacos and other accoutrements, there is a real world possibility that we could end all the hate and disagreements that plague this grey hole we call home. So to that, I raise my tall can to you, Gonzales Taqueria, for doing the lords work with these carnitas that you bless our neighborhood with. I am forever in debt to you!P.S. Scott; no white man with a mullet will ever be considered to have a valid opinion on Mexican food. Stick to Oscar meyer bologna.Marc S, the fact that you openly admit to judging Mexican restaurants based off of their bean and cheese burritos speaks to how ignorant you are, and your frequent poor reviews. I know you think mayonnaise is spicy, but live a little

Wouldn't eat here, found a used band aid in my food and a hair on the straw of my drink. Let me tell the story, I was driving and one of my 5 kids were hungry so I pulled over to the nearest food truck I seen, and it happened to be this old white rusty food truck with skid marks on it. Looks aren't everything to me so I decided to just try it. I ordered the burrito and the man who gave it to me slopped it onto my hands harshly and left me bruise marks for days. When I bit into the burrito the chicken inside it was really soft, as if it hadn't been cooked for very long. I was suspicious and opened up the burrito and found red meat, very uncooked. when i parked my car, a homeless man broke a window and left me with 4 kids. I ended up finding the homeless man but when I came back to confront the white rusty van owner, he ignored me and called the cops! NEVER COMING BAck
