Margaritas & Tacos! The puffy tacos were not what we get in Texas but were still good. Chips, salsa and queso were on point.

Food: the food here is RAD, if I could only tip the 'back of house'... Service: I'd hate to inconvenience the staff by being a patron here and attempt to order something.... BTW: empty drink for MOST of my visit...Jeez Leuise... staff is not very attentive; into everything but customer experience. It's like the customer OWES something up front. How has customer service/attention fallen this far off the rails?? Tell me

Fantastic place for Tex Mex. Their Al Pastor tacos are phenomenal! They're a little on the greasy side so be prepared but that's what adds the awesome flavor in my opinion! The joint is cozy, there's outdoor seating, and their drinks menus had plenty of options. Service is friendly and fast. The fried taco shells are a specialty with the greens and guacamole so give that a visit try as well!

Found myself in NE this afternoon and wanted to try some place new, fun, and amazing. La Taq has been on my list for a long time so I figured "Why the hell not" and walked a few blocks over here from Barista. Omg I'm so glad I decided to take that walk! La Taq is a perfect example of everything I love about the Portland food scene: small, cozy, unpretentious, and totally awesome food!I had the Cadillac Margarita, chips and salsa, and chicken bowl. All were amazing! Salsa was one of my all time favorites, rich and a little smoky. Burrito bowl was also awesome with quality ingredients, rich flavors and textures, and just a little smoky. Get the tortillas with that :). Service was also great. La Taq is now on my list of PDX favorites. I'm looking forward to returning!(Note: minors are not allowed)

Wanted a margarita and some tacos and this place hit the spot. Laid back restaurant/bar, not packed for a Saturday night which is hard to find in Portland. Food and drinks were very reasonably priced and the tacos were amazingg. Perfect for a date or something low key with good food and drinks. Ambience was super nice with rustic vibes and dim lighting. We will definitely be back!! Also bartender was chill.

Man I love this place. I actually drove down to Portland from Seattle primarily to eat here. This is the only actual Tex-Mex joint I've found in the PNW. The menu changed markedly from the last time I was here. (BC - Before Covid) So I was really hoping for the brisket enchiladas of yore. Even though those were no longer available, the tacos, queso, and margaritas we brilliant. Our waiter was super nice. I had the brisket puffy taco, standard brisket taco, and an al pastor in addition to my chips and queso with brisket. Everything was delicious. Well worth the trip. I stopped next door and got some takeout at the BBQ joint to have later on my way out. Good times.

I live in the neighbor and have been a raving fan of La Taq for quite a while. The tacos are undoubtably amazing, but after last night's visit and the horrendously obnoxious and rude behavior of the server, I will not, in good conscience, ever return. From the moment I ask the simple question: Is there table service outside (because some evenings there isn't) and the server's obnoxious reply - "That's why there are tables there..." to then be left waiting for 20 mins and the blatantly up-charging us for drinks we didn't order - I now don't even trust that they didn't cheat us on our bill - the server made it that unpleasant of a dining experience. Fortunately, this is Portland, and there are an abundance of great food choices and taco places close by, and with servers who don't make patronizing their restaurant an unpleasant experience.

As a Texan I can confirm that this is top notch Tex Mex - the queso is great, the guac is great, the salsa is great (spicy!), and the gringo taco is great!Service was delightful, vibes were chill!

Great happy hour place, tasty snacks and drinks. The day we visited, loud music made conversation difficult.
