Wouldn't say that they were the best I've ever had but being freshly made and warm alone they're pretty good. Could use more filling in general and the baked dough was a bit tough. The best one was probably the Cheese, which was fried. Super gooey filling.

I ended up getting some jalapeño stuffed olives. These are some of the best I've ever had. The queso blanco was fantastic too! The cheese blend was great. Watch out for the hot salsas, they are HOT (in the best way). I got a hot cider from the coffee bar. It had just the right flavor. We got some donuts too. They were a little bland, but that may have just been that batch. We wandered around outside for a bit, the grounds have a great view, just watch out for the flies! The service here was fantastic too, very helpful! Great service, great food!

We were visiting a wedding venue viewing on Sunday & was looking for a place for breakfast while we…read morewait for the viewing to occur & chose this place. I am saddened to say I don't remember coming here several years back - per my husband- but I can say I won't forget again. This place is an absolute gem! Luckily we got there early (opens at 0600 - got there around 0800) because after we sat down, it had a constant flow of traffic. Our party of 5 was sat quickly & order taken just as fast. In Oregon, they can't serve alcohol until after 0700 and when I saw their mimosa options I was get happy. I went with the standard mimosa while my husband went for the dole whip option. They were both excellent & priced well. We split the special eggs Benedict which had great flavor& presentation but the egg was over done which was slightly disheartening. I got a side of bacon to go (for my puppies) and cinnamon roll to go as well. I was full but couldn't go without it ! It didn't disappoint and sure would have been better if eaten there directly. Overall the menu is expansive and I will be back to try more options! If in the area, I would highly recommend stopping & giving it a shot

Their tacos are good,…read moretraditional street style with two small corn tortillas topped with protein of choice, chopped onion and cilantro. Wish there was more meat! I'd be willing to pay more. Their breakfast burritos are fabulous, really loaded with eggs, potatoes and chorizo. Easily two meals for me! My friend had the tamales and said they were legit. Service is friendly and as fast as it can be based on making food fresh when you order. They are open everyday (except Sunday) from 10-4pm. They have a shaded tented spot if you want to eat there. Next to Ayala is an empanada food cart so pick up some sweet or savory empanadas while you are here.

Surprised that I found those fleeing feelings of gratitude again. Thank you, Lord, for these beautiful surprises.

This combination is a match made in culinary heaven--great craft beer paired with incredible, scratch-made Mexican food. The quality here is top-tier. It tasted like they use handmade tortillas.

The service is fast, friendly, and efficient, which means you spend less time waiting and more time enjoying your food and your pint. El Viejon delivers authentic, bold flavors that you won't find just anywhere. Go grab a brew and your crew and head over to El Viejon at Fortside!

All the meats and bones typical to a Mexican dinner table at good prices. The bakery (panaderias) here has all the classics like concha, empanadas, piggies, bolillos, etc. The hot food section has a variety of tasty looking meats stewing away, such as barbacoa, carnitas, chicken, nopales. They also serve hot tamales, sopes, enchiladas, burritos, Chile relleni, taquitos, soups, shrimp cebicbe, salsas, champurrado and more! Their plate and family meals are a crazy good deal. Admittedly, the hit food left something to be desired but for the price and service, can't really complain. (The tamale I got was a bit dry and needed a but more flavor, but it was toward evening and each tamale was hefty for $2 a piece. Rice and beans hit the spot.) The lady serving our food was very nice too. Sad that this place selling legit pumpkin empanadas is so far away from home but I'd happily go back here for more empanadas and grocery shopping again.
