    We stopped here based on the Yelp rating but will definitely be back for the warm friendly service, the great, fresh food with a wonderful toppings bar, the best horchata north of Mexico and the scrumptious margarita served in a mug with a rim of lime, salt and chili pepper. I had the taco salad and it comes with a fresh made flour tortilla shell with the meat on the side. You build the rest at the topping bar. It was excellent. My husband got a beef burrito that was huge and he swore he couldn't eat it all, then, because it was so good, polished it off in one sitting. The margarita can be ordered either shaken or blended and comes in 4 sizes: small (single), mine was medium (double), large (definitely have a designated driver) and a pitcher. Guess Loden Miller State Forest will be on our hiking list to give us an excuse to drive 65 miles for lunch. We will be back!

    Unbelievable Mexican food found here. Had the :"make your own taco" with their extensive toppings bar. Excellent chips and salsa! The service here is top-notch as well. Very cozy place located in Conover Square in Oregon. After a great meal, take a stroll through the mall. Lots to see. Will definitely be back to Hector's- but, not soon enough!

    The chicken in the tacos is really good meat. The service is fast. The dining area is decorated with Mexican flare. Everyone is very nice.

    I have eaten in a lot of Mexican Restaurants and Hector's is right up there. The only thing I would like to see is a "Hotter" sauce.

    I don't mean to be dramatic, but how come no one told me about Hectors Cocina located in Conover Square in Oregon?

    Came to this unassuming Mexican restaurant in Byron. Dos Amigos is one of the few places to get…read moresuch cuisine around here. It has pretty limited choices around here for any kind of ethnic food obviously. Find something pretty typical like burritos, tacos, and more. This certainly isn't the most authentic but it has pretty good flavors and stuff. Best thing of course is the drinks. It's of course got lots. These are better than much of the food, but the food isn't bad though. A value when thinking about it. It's about $6 for a margarita. Add a buck to put in a flavor. The food menu has the expected stuff. It's about $12 for the Vegetarian Fajitas. Our options were kind of limited with all the meaty items. These come with bell peppers, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, and zucchini. Also comes with plenty of side items. These included beans, guacamole, lettuce, pico de gallo, rice, and sour cream which I left off. Also a few tortillas to put these in. There's always never enough of these. Good place to get Americanized Mexican food. It's actually a little more authentic than many local Mexican restaurants. There's meaty items along with some things for vegetarians.

    We went there 3 times in 2 days, we were at a wrestling tournament. The Margaritas were…read more Perfect. The salsa was just right not too spicy. The roof was delicious , there was 5 of us, the 2 dinners we had were different and could not of been better. Years ago we stayed in Old Mexico in San Diego , my husband has always said it was the best food. Now he says this restaurant was the BEST. Waiters and Waitress were so kind and nice. It's an hour from our house, we will be going back!!!!

Next time you are in Polo make sure you stop here, you won't be disappointed!

The building is not very handicap accessible but there is a rail to hold onto while navigating the 2 steps at the entrance. The building is a beautiful old building which we appreciated. It is a very small place but welcoming, and the smell as you walked in was magnificent. We were welcomed in and directed to the service window. There were menus there to choose from. The choices are pretty standard, but the smells in there made it difficult to narrow it down to one dish. We ordered a chicken quesadilla, a steak chimichanga with rice and beans, we picked our beverages from a cooler near the ordering window and went to sit at one of the few tables to choose from. They brought out a basket of very tasty homemade chips and pico, I asked for hot sauce and was brought 2 bottles red was hot, and green was mild both were delicious. Shortly after, our food was delivered. It looked as wonderful as it tasted. Everything we ordered was very fresh and flavorful. The serving sizes were perfect. The one thing you should know is they are a cash only establishment. We will definitely be back to try something else, the people at the table near us recommended the steak tacos.
