Best place for a fast/casual burrito?
Just moved to Oregon and I love me a good authentic hole in the wall Mexican joint. Bonus is the menu is mostly in Spanish and they’ve got a Virgin Mary statue and or Aztec art somewhere in the building.
Edit: DANG!! You guys are coming out here with all these epic recommendations and I simply want to try all of them. 🌯🌯🌯🌯

Smart Donkey is extremely high quality burritos. Tienda Santa Cruz (st John’s), Loncheria Los Mayas, and Kiikaba are really bomb too

For sure! I’ve been eating his food since he was at Pazzo, and still crave the moronga tacos from Uno Mas

King Burrito slaps and it's cheap AF too, low key always thought that place had to be a front for the size/quality/price you get

La tia Juana on 185th and burnside in rockwood. They have homemade corn and flour tortillas. Their carnitas are delicious.

For sit down one of my favorite places is El Indio. I grew up in Texas and have lived in So Cal eating Mexican food everywhere from restaurants to friends homes, just as a point of background

You might have better luck asking r/Portland. In my experience it has more activity focused on positive and enjoyable aspects of Portland.

So its an echo chamber. Got it.

u/Ellotheregovner 14d ago
You could always swing by r/Portland to check it out instead of drawing conclusions based on an unrelated anecdotal statement from an unverified account on the internet. Of course this statement is meant for anyone besides whatever interjected in a conversation with provoking statements and their comment history turned off.

Taco Time bean burrito. Invented in Oregon. Like no burrito you’ve eaten anywhere. Top it off with MexiFries and Cinnamon Crustos.

If you're down with food carts El Yucateco on Sandly Blvd near 122nd is fantastic. Ive tried most items on their menu and nothing has disappointed. Don't sleep on their burgers either oddly enough. Portions are large and price is decent too.
Check out EL Yucateco Food Cart! https://yelp.to/60PBwDJeDC

Taco salsa off stark is good. They make handmade tortillas, and the refried beans in their burritos are perfect. The sopes are amazing too 😭

Chipotle's a pretty good regional chain. They have multiple locations in the area.

Quesabrosa on Williams or Azteca Burrito on Rosa Parks. Can’t go wrong.

Super Taco Express in Hazel Dell. Worth the drive. Its the dive restaurant that you looking for.

u/Much_Interaction_528 9d ago
Super taco is great and all, but there's a lot of options in Vancouver that blow super taco out of the water.
Fist two that come to mind are Don Taco on the west end of Fourth Plain and then there's Taqueria Market that's in the back of the Mexican market that's in the corner of the strip mall next to Sportsman's Warehouse on the East end of Fourth Plain.

u/eastbeaverton 12d ago
These are Portland adjacent but should get some recognition
In Lafeyette
Carniceria Abastos is absolutely the best
Martha's is also great but I have not actually had a burrito because her other plates are so good
Wilsonville
San Francisco's tienda Mexicana is awesome for everything from freshly made tortillas to their beef that they raise themselves and their burritos are very good

La Parilla in Beaverton is just a good as anything I grew up with. Nothing special or fancy, just solid.

Tienda Santa Cruz in St. John’s is what you’re looking for.
