The food is pretty good, not too expensive. Sometimes the wait is long, but we eat here once every week or two anyway. I enjoy the al pastor. read more

I usually have a good experience here and the food is good for what it's priced at but today I went to Don Ladis for the $5 dollar al pastor plate. As I was eating my rice I found a tiny piece of rock? Kind of confused how a rock ended up in my rice.. read more

Don Ladis Taco Shop - A tiny rock - Mexican Near Me - Gresham, Oregon

This place is a great place to go if you want cheap Mexican food late at night. I got an al pastor burrito for $5! Rice and beans are $1 extra if you want them. They have the sauce station with 6 different sauces, radish and limes. Loved this and grabbed a variety to go. The burrito isn't amazing or special but I mean it's a $5 burrito what can you really expect? It was good and kept me full. Would go back for a late night bite. Especially considering how cheap it is. read more

I'm still shocked at how good this place was. Ever since I left Southern California it's been hard to find really good Mexican food and this place definitely reminded me of home! read more

Legit Mexican food at legit prices. A clean establishment with an extensive menu. Carne asada fries, kids burrito plate and a taquito plate all for $15. Salsa bar and plenty of choices of beverages. Definitely worth going to if you are in the area. read more

Absolutely terrible, Ceviche had I think ketchup or cocktail sauce on it and tartar sauce or mayo. The guacamole tasted like a sauce made with avocado and not really guacamole. The pastor tacos were extremely bland and not flavorful. One of the worst Mexican restaurants I've had the displeasure of trying. read more

Good food, friendly and clean environment. They were amazing with my toddler son and didn't mind that he kept trying to play hide and seek with them. Super sweet staff. read more

We love Don Ladis Taco Shop! I base my reviews on what they claim to be. Not what I want them to be. This is a local favorite and extremely affordable. It's a "hole in the wall" or "dive" taco shop. Get past the neon yellow paint and the gray painted floor, needs a fresh coat. This is a great place for a quick, filling and budget meal. Plenty of tables to sit at! I love the #1 Special which is a shredded chicken and rice burrito. Rice and beans on side and a drink to boot for the great price of $5.50! Seriously it's a huge and tasty meal. I like the Horchata drink too! Refills? Yes. Included. I wish I could tell you about other items but this is my go-to. Be sure to check out the salsa bar-it's saucy! 5 star for classic Mexican fare and a price that cannot be beat! PS I assume a 1 Star first time reviewer (like the one below) is from a disgruntled employee. I do not put too much weight on those reviews. Don Ladis is a hopping place and I have never received bad service, attitudes or food in 4 years of frequenting here. read more

I am a native southern Californian and have lived in the Pacific Northwest for five years. I have searched for really good American Mexican tacos like I used to get and have finally found them. I have also tried their rolled tacos as well as, obviously, rice and beans. I will say, I think the beans and pico de Gallo could use a bit more salt, the rice and tortillas are also really yummy. Thank you, Don Ladis! read more

First time here and it didn't impress. Food was just ok. Service was mediocre and the place just wasn't very clean.

came across this place via yelp when i 'searched' fish burrito, ended up trying their asada fries that we replaced with tater tots which was not a good decision. really greasy/ over cooked. the ingredients over all are poor. meat quality eh oh & they have a fishy taste to them. Ps the lady at the counter was quite unpleasant read more

Amazing taco restaurant! I ordered some chips and salsa for my class, and they kindly threw in some buñuelitos for them to share! So thoughtful and kind. The tacos are also amazing! The churro a perfect dessert. Thank you! read more

Love this place so much! Moved from Tri-Cities WA like a year and a half ago & this is still probably my favorite place in Gresham! I wasnt expecting it but they started knowing my name & order without me having to say it. Cant go without having some extra money for a big tip! read more

I see why the police stop here for lunch. This place is good. The cashier, Leslie, was really nice. PBS was on the tv so I got to watch a kids show and learn about nocturnal vs. diurnal animals. Yay! They have Squirt soda! I got a lot of tasty food for an inexpensive price- my favorite! I ordered a chimichanga and sat there for an hour on my phone with no worries. It was a nice lunch. Thank you DLTS, I'll be back. read more

If I could leave zero stars and throw this so called food back at them I would. Lady at counter was more rude then anyone I have meet. Their radio was so loud she could not hear me talk to her. I ordered the taco salad with ground beef they gave me shredded beef with more water in it then food. We have always liked eating here but may never eat here again!!!! So bad I downloaded this app and left my first review read more

Quality food at a great price. Most frequent place I go to in Gresham over the past 15 years. Would recommend 100%. Tip them! read more

I often get a huge order of mini tacos for the whole family. They love the chicken and the carne asada and always consider in a great treat!. This place is also really good at following instructions for takeout orders. For example I always ask for cilantro on the side and they always do it. I can't say that for every place. read more

Best Mexican food in this entire town and for the best price . I never get a bad order and I go weekly. They have the best guacamole sauce any where in Portland Metro. The staff is always upbeat and pleasant . I'm glad I live closer to Don Ladis than before. Keep doing what you are doing Don Ladis ... . read more

I'm from Texas and until this place opened I had no where I truly considered GREAT Mexican food. Well that all changed when Chuy's opened. It was life changing for us. Living in Portland was awesome and then this place opened and now it's perfect Try the carnitas burrito or the machaca. Everything they make is incredible. The chili verde is killer and their chili rellenos are outstanding. read more

Great family owned restaurant. Try the breakfast and other burritos. Their fries are also great. I have been here several times and the kids also love it. Prices are very reasonable. And they open until 12am!!! Their breakfast burrito is to die for. It is a huge burrito with all of the fixings. They have great salsa too. We eat here several times per month. read more

I had the best taco of my life here yesterday! I get al pastor tacos everywhere I can find them, and this was the most delicious, juicy, and large al pastor taco I think I have ever had. The staff is always so nice and I ordered to go through the door dash app and my food was ready in not even 5 minutes. This is my new spot for sure! read more

Yum! This is definitely that good San Diego Mexican food that I have heard all about. Friend of mine from California seconds this! Had the taco salad and the shredded beef, beans, rice, veggies, and cheese was excellent! Decor was a little sparse but the place was really busy and you could tell it was a mainstay for a lot of people in Gresham. Great prices also! Definitely a place I would go to again when I am in Gresham. read more

Moved to Oregon from So CA 6 years ago and desperately miss good Mexican food. Finally found my favorite place, my new "go to" place! Mostly/all (?) home made food, not a bunch of cans. The beans are SO good, I eat them all, and I don't like beans! If you are thrown off by the color, they are not artificially colored, get over it. Get the flan, seriously. read more

I'm extremely picky about meat. I love meat but get grossed out easily and was so impressed with their shredded chicken. I rarely order meat because of this but was glad I did. The nachos are disappointing though kinda boring. Really wish they at least had jalapeños on it. Their homemade chips and pico is delicious. read more

Restaurant was good. Beans tasted instant. But we got our food pretty instant so no complaints. The restroom was very clean. It appeared to be a family owned. Great service and great customer service. I ordered their Super Nachoes. Pretty filling and good. My boyfriend ordered Carne Asada fries. Those were pretty good too. They have a kids menu. My eldest ordered a bean and cheese burrito which came with rice and beans. My youngest ordered chicken nuggets with fries. I would stop there again. read more

Best taqueria in Portland so far. This is the closest to Cali Mex as I have found. I had given up on eating Mexican food in Gresham because they all put frozen carrots and peas in the rice in the burritos. Don Ladis has the best tortillas, and they use shredded chicken which is my favorite. I suggest you pick up your order as they never ever give you any salsa with a delivery order, even if you type numerous notes. Ruins the entire experience when you have no salsa. I just got my second order this week without a single container of salsa despite "3" notes on my order!! read more

What a great little shop everything is scratch made delicious and to top it off CHEAP. When I can go in and feed myself and my 6yr old for $6 or less and walk away with some leftovers and two full belly's someone is doing something right. They have all the classics for street tacos from you al pastor to carne asada and everything you could think of in between. They run daily $5 specials and my favorite is Monday or Tuesday. I'm not telling what they are only because I want you to go and see for yourself. The burritos are big and super full of fillings. If you like salsa's and the pickled carrots and radishes and limes then you can count on that as well. Now maybe it's 4pm and u have a hankering for breakfast burrito well yep they have that as well. Or you're looking for a "healthy" option they have the classic taco salad as well. All in all I love love love this place and we go 3 times a week on average. read more

We've been shopping in the area for years and finally got a chance to stumble upon this place. I've been looking for a burrito/taco joint that can at least be compatible to what I had in Nor-Cal. Very pleased with the portion and price is reasonable. Al Pastor burrito and Carnita Tacos are my favorite/staple when I order now. The burrito can be like 2 meals for me. It's super flavorful and packed. They have everyday specials if you're in the mood to try something new. Parking is easy to find, the inside is very clean/tidy, and a lot of sunlight during the day as I've only been during the day. They have self serve soda machines and a salsa bar. I would definitely recommend this place if you're looking for something quick, cheap, good and filling. read more

Good food and a place to eat at the right price. Especially their $5 combo (if felling thrifty) with a refillable drink. You can experience on long waits, IT COULD BE -Slow cooks (2 Chefs are lagging), overwhelmed with orders, under staff on that day, your ticket was shuffled back to the last spot or it's just your unlucky day at Chuy's. Today's visit 4-15-16 We waited 25 minutes dining in. We ordered 2 combos and a carne asada burrito. Six people behind us were served, another 2 came and served to go. My wife went up to the counter to check, and there IT IS our ticket was CHOPPED LIVER!!! I've seen people in our visits experienced the same frustrations maybe not the ticket dilemma like ours but today was our unlucky day at Chuy's. read more

This place screams one word: value! They do a phenomenal job and I'm very impressed. Obviously the owner is trying to keep his prices low so he can continue to offer a great meal at a great price. I haven't had a bad meal yet! read more

Wow, Yelp reviewers can be kind of whiny. Are you going to find "the best, most authentic taco in the northwest" at Don Ladis? No! You're going to find: -large portions -slightly above average Tex-Mex food -helpful, personable staff -a great salsa bar (get the creamy green salsa) -an unbeatable price read more

First time here. Traveling from out of town. I called ahead of time to ask about their menu and were friendly. When I showed up their service was good. Order was quick and accurate. Place was clean and neat. There nothing like eating in a clean restaurant. Prices are reasonable. By the why the menudo was good. It was not over cooked and the pieces were clean. I would come back again. read more

This is our second time here and we were disappointed as the fish tacos were not very good. The Wednesday special says six dollars and they charged seven without letting us know the prices had changed. I made them aware of the $6 sign but they didn't seem to want to honor their price. read more

This was, hands down, the most disgusting Mexican "food" I've ever had. It was horribly inedible. My Supreme Quesadilla with shredded chicken resembled soup more than anything else. The guacamole was runny and a strange pastel greenish, the refried beans were grey, and there was almost no cheese. I barely stomached a few bites before deciding it was definitely against my best interests to continue. And the beef burrito had some kind of mystery meat that would never even pass for ground chuck. Rather than complain to the girl at the counter (who cared more about her personal conversations than taking orders), I counted it as a $12 loss and tossed it all. Lesson learned. Although I'm still more than a little confused on how this place currently has 4 stars... read more

Whelp, this is the second time I've paid $7.00 for a Chile relleno super burrito, and was given a burrito with rice, sour cream and guacamole...but no Chile relleno. The last time, I pulled it apart to find some diced green chiles but no cheese anywhere. This time, there's not a whisp of chiles or cheese anywhere. Because I don't want to jump back in my car and drive across Gresham to return it, both times I've sighed and stayed home to eat what I have. I like this place. I would like to continue liking it. But paying $7.00 for a tortilla, rice and sour cream is not cool. read more
