I had the Poc Chuc and it was full of flavor and the soft corn tortillas are wonderful! I want a whole stack of them to snack on. 2 others in my party and all were happy with their dishes. We ate on site at the picnic tables. Staff was nice and helpful. Outdoor covered seating area was nice as well. It was clean and well maintained.

Veggie burrito

Delicious burrito, very nice people there, will be back to try more menu items! Service was fast too

spinach sope with carne asada
Danielle G.

although the most popular thing here is the panucho, which is a corn tortilla stuffed with black beans with protein / veg, i thought the spinach sope was the best thing here. the carne asada (steak) was rly juicy and had a great flavor. for the panuchos, i got the pork and chicken ones but the pork one was much more juicy. chicken was a bit dry but still tasted pretty good.. i like the pickled onions on them, it added a nice kick. getting three items was super filling, it was pretty much my only meal of the day. you could probably just get one thing here and be satisfied tbh. this place is a gem, authentic tasting. would surely recommend this to my friends!

4 for 4 on taste.

The real deal. Do know they specialize in Yucatán region specialities, so you might see offerings not usually found at a traditional Mexican venue. The panuchos and salbutes were excellent and ample. Maybe because they are purists, but you are limited to chicken or Cochinita Pibil, while other places allow to top with carnitas, asada, etc. A menu surprise: fried Spinach Sopes, yum. The tacos were par for the course. The breakfast burrito is decent, but not in the upper echelon of Portland choices. Pico de gallo doesn't generally work. And crispy potatoes is what takes one to the next level, here they're boiled-like. Lastly, I didn't care for the crowd popular vegetarian burrito. What's missing from the menu are Banana leaf tamales that most Yucatán places offer. Friendly and relatively fast service. I think the large parking lot is all for the cart, but getting out onto Prescott heading West can be a little cumbersome.

Food truck
Sarah C.

This food truck is on the corner of 42nd and Prescott is easy to pass by, but worth stopping for if you're hungry and heading through Cully. This Latinx-owned biz serves Mexican and Yucatecan food. I got an ~$8 veg quesadilla which had cheese, bell peppers, and onions inside. Lettuce, tomato, and sour cream on the side. (No guac.) Also got a ~$9 veggie burrito which was a good size. Only thing I would do differently next time is ask for salsas! I could've used more spice in the burrito in particular. I think I might have been offered some as I was departing but I misheard / thought they were asking if I needed silverware. There are some picnic tables under a tent to eat here, but the busy streets aren't the most atmospheric. I suggest taking it to go.

New dining patio :D

Okay. So I went vegan... and of course kept going to LML because the food and people are the best. I was ordering custom vegan burritos on the regular, then I come to find out they added a vegan burrito to the menu *and named it after me* I'm so honored! So next time you're there, try the Vegan Karl Burrito and enjoy the generous helpings of goodies that await inside. They've got other vegan options, too, btw. They've also massively upgraded their seating area since my last review - now it's covered and has more tables and nice lighting.

Carnitas meat burrito - yummy!

Amazing burrito. I went here on a Monday afternoon and it was perfect. The service was fast, the food was delicious and they let me have one of every hot sauce. Fun tented room with picnic benches to sit at.

Pretty good chicken burrito but could be more competitively priced--this place has very little overhead as a husband and wife team and are charging 12 bucks for a burrito--La Bonita had a larger one for the same quality at an actual restaurant for $9

The young woman taking orders was so helpful and friendly, as was the rest of the staff. My wife loved her carne asada torta, which was delicious and the telera bun was so crazy soft! I had a fantastic chile relleno burrito and we also got a couple quekas, which I'd never had before but were also delicious. It was one of those places where I had intended to take some pictures to use in a review but everything looked so good we ate it all before I remembered I wanted pictures! Highly recommend, give them a try!

Ordering was quick, but the restaurant was fairly busy on a Saturday afternoon. We both ordered the carne asada taco plate. All the flavors were extremely mild. I could have used more seasoning on the meat for sure. The meat had a bit more chew to it. It was a bit tough. There was salsa brought out to top the tacos, but it didn't do anything to disguise the under-seasoned beef. The rice and beans were also under-seasoned. Overall, that seemed to be the theme. I would give my meal a 6.2/10. It's definitely an option if you are craving Mexican food and you happen to be in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way. Maybe we would have had better luck with another protein option!

My…read moregirlfriend and I were running errands yesterday evening, and decided to order some burritos for pick up when we were done. And to be honest, we were debating whether to get papi chulo's or not since it was a weeknight and we never eat out on weeknights. Safe to say, it was a mistake. They told her on the phone that our pick up order would be ready in 10 min. I walked in there 15 min later to get it, and it was not ready. The gentleman helping me out when I walked in looked like he had zero idea what I was talking about when I mentioned the pick up order name. He then immediately walked away from me and went to the register, and proceeded to ask me what I ordered and at this point, I knew he didn't know what it was and he said, "oh, it will be ready in 7 minutes." I ordered only 3 Breakfast burritos with no meat or anything in them - so, I thought 7 min wasn't too bad. Boy, was I wrong. It actually took 20 min (yes, 20 min) with me standing there by the table until the order was ready with no number or anything. I'll remind you all that there were legit 2 other customers in there and ONE CUSTOMER received their order before our 3 breakfast burritos were ready! That isn't right. I get sometimes food takes awhile, but both of them didn't apologize or anything while I was waiting. I've been to Muchas Gracious waiting for my order before, and they offered me a free drink because they felt bad they were having me wait 5 min! I don't accept it because I felt bad, but the point is, the lack of accountability and customer service during this experience was dreadful. And to be honest, the times I've been here, they haven't ever been too nice to me. After the order was finally ready, the lady working by the grill stuffed in at least 10 plastic containers of hot sauce into my bag. When we got home, most of them opened up and it left the biggest mess in the bag! Come on guys. This was just bad. Plus, my burritos were greasy anyways and tasted off. (See picture of the mess). I won't lie, there's plenty of other Mexican restaurants and establishments I can go to other than Papi Chulo's. Pretty disappointing experience overall and I can guarantee you I won't be going back anytime soon. I'd give the experience a 1/10 and the food a 2/10.
