    First really yummy mexican food I've had since moving to the gorge; originally from the Bay Area. I had a chicken burrito, partner had asada. Their hot sauces are killer too. Service was excellent and fast. I can't wait to try everything else!

    So good highly recommend. Great salsas !!

    I often get a burrito here for lunch. The burritos are large, tasty, and the little bag of chips that they give you is a nice touch!

    I nearly skipped this place thinking "I'm not much of a taco fan." However, my husband loves tacos…read moreand wanted to try it, fortunately for me. We ended up coming back the next day without hesitation for 2 days of tacos in a row and I'd return in a heartbeat if ever back in Hood River. These tacos are addictive! With their mix-and-match fusion menu, your taco of choice can really taste any way you like. The Hawaiian taco with grilled shrimp was my favorite, but I also enjoyed their Thai taco with chicken. I wish I could have tried all of them as everything featured good, fresh ingredients. Don't skip the drinks here either. I usually avoid cocktails but they offered to make their frozen margarita spicy for me and I couldn't resist -- fantastic! The service was over-the-top amazing. This is a casual restaurant where you order at the counter, seat yourself with a number, and wait for your food to be delivered. Service at such establishments is usually pretty perfunctory, but not at Love & Hominy. The servers are all super friendly and seem genuinely enthusiastic to be working in their restaurant. That in itself says a lot. As mentioned, this place is casual but still fun and eclectic. While eating your tacos in-house, check out the wall on the entrance side. It's pretty entertaining to look at.

    We were with family who are fully vegan, so finding a place with good vegan options can sometimes…read morebe a challenge. This spot made it easy, with an interesting menu and plenty of options to choose from. We ordered a few different things, including tex mex tacos, a salad with rice, and a few different taco varieties. My hubby and I shared the Thai, Vietnamese, and Korean tacos, and we also got the watermelon juice and chips with avocado salsa. Everything was flavorful, and the tacos were definitely not skimping on the fillings. Each taco is around $6, which initially felt a little steep, but they were packed to the brim, so you're definitely getting a substantial portion. Service was a little mediocre. I got the sense that our server was new and there were a couple of mix-ups, but nothing major. Overall, an enjoyable lunch, especially for a group with different dietary preferences. The patio was a great bonus, and we'd happily come back.
