La Pinata Takos makes some great street tacos! I had their shrimp taco, and it really hit the spot. The shrimp was delicious --- not too shrimpy and balanced well with the chipotle sauce they put on it. There were the perfect amounts of cilantro, onion, guacamole, lettuce, and cheese. I also really enjoyed the sauce they gave me on the side! (Please excuse my already squeezed lime. )My husband ordered their American taco and said he quite enjoyed it as well! He especially liked how they charred their meat all the way through.The woman running the window was friendly and seemed to enjoy working there. Our food was out quickly, but in enough time that you could tell love/preparation went into it. Definitely one of our top favorite taco carts in the area so far!

Hands down the BEST taco place in Portland area that I've tried. My go-to spot to satisfy my Mexican food cravings!!!FOODAfter trying almost all of taco restaurants in Portland, this place has to be the best! My go-to is the asada and lengua tacos. Let me tell you, they seasoned it to perfection. Meats are very tender and the street taco style is on point. It's sooooo good it reminded me of tacos el gordo in San Diego. SERVICESince it's a food truck, the service is as good as it gets. It seems like the truck is owned by an older couple and they're the NICEST people we've met. They offered us water while we waited AND chatted us up when we told them it was the best tacos we've had.ALL IN ALL, best taco truck in town with phenomenal owners. Definitely can't wait to come back soon!

Best Chile Rellenos Burrito I have EVER Had! SO Delicious! Their Horchata is SO yummy, creamy and very cinnamon-y So good Highly recommend coming to this food truck!

Nice friendly worker with good cooking; good variety of food and beverages. Affordable price, worth every penny:)

This has been a staple for many years! Started going when they were across from the Ash for a 2 AM taco run after going to shows. And have never stopped! Try to go at least twice a month even though I am nowhere near downtown anymore. The food is just that good and the people who run this place are the sweetest people you could ever wanna meet. Best chili relleno burrito I've had and that's including California, Texas, New Mexico & Arizona. Fish tacos can't be beat. Veggie burrito is nice. Enchiladas are great in the city for the food trucks. This place is a stand out.

My favourite place to go after work. A Burrito w/ Machaca & Pastor is my go to. Its never not made to perfection. Prices are cheap and portions are great. I recently tried their Nachos and got the same meat on top that I do for my Burritos (Machaca: Shredded Beef/Pastor:Marinated Pork) and Oh My God was it heaven. One of my favourite spots in Portland and you need to try it, and you better fucking tip when you are there, the two running it are as polite as it gets.

Bomb street tacos with prices that are a steal! If you're in downtown Portland and are looking for a quick bite that doesn't break your wallet and also fills your stomach, then this is your place! (Haha such a wordy sentence). But forreal the shrimp tacos were phenomenal! Could eat those everyday. 5/5 for me. However, the chicken tacos were pretty good, a 3.5/5. Thus the 4-star rating. But really you guys, go check them out if you're in downtown and hungry!

We were wandering around downtown and on the way to do some shopping, I spotted La Piñata Takos. They're bunched together with a group of street cart vendors.We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon (around 2:30pm). It's run by a husband and wife combo. Everything is freshly made to order so it'll take a few minutes to get your food. Worth it! They asked if we wanted sauce (mild and spicy options); we picked the spicy one, which was solid.The menu is big: burritos, tacos, quesadillas, combos, fajita plate, tortas, tamales and sopes. Tacos are only $1.50 US each! Talk about a good deal. Horchata ($2.00 US) is also reasonable.- Fish taco ($1.50 US) - cilantro, onion, guacamole, tomatoes, sour cream, lettuce, cheese and chipotle sauce. Fish was flaky and tender. - Shrimp taco ($1.50 US) - same toppings. Shrimp were fresh and a good portion.Solid tacos! I'd come back to try their enchiladas. Everything sounded great with super reasonable prices too.

One of the few places I can get nachos with liquid cheese. Plus the kind owners are helping me learn Spanish! I now know how to order "the usual" -- which, in my case, are nachos with pastor. So tasty!
