I was pleasantly surprised by this little Boardman restaurant. The super attentive staff brought chips and two types of salsa, along with water and my beverage. I had the tamale lunch special which was really great. I enjoyed my time here very much! read more

What a great find. We were a little skeptical when we pulled up - but the service and food were fantastic! Freshly made tortillas and great, authentic food. Both our 10 year olds loved it as well. read more

Macarios Mexican Restaurant - Starting off lunch with chips and salsa - Mexican Near Me - Boardman, Oregon

Stopped here passing through from out of town. I had a burrito and although it was greasy/wet style, it was delicious and I devoured it. Chips and salsa on the side were good too. Bathroom, although a little banged up, was very clean. Highly recommend if you're passing by and need a bite to eat. Business hours are 11-8 Mon-Sat, closed Sundays. read more

Surprisingly good Sonora food for a little Oregon town. Lots of workers from the industrial area it's located in. Service was OK. Chili Colorado west very good. read more

Great service, nice waitstaff, good food, and decent prices! The places looks a little sketchy from the outside and isn't anything fancy, but worth the stop! Their salsa is different and has cabbage in it, but it's so good and a nice change from other Mexican restaurants that are all the same. read more

I was pretty disappointed in this. The outside is definitely not what I was expecting, and the inside matched the outside in my opinion. The service was friendly, and the food was meh. I had a Fajita burrito and it was honestly meh at best. The chips and salsa were ok. The chips fantastic, the salsa much lacking. Overall I wasn't happy with it, but obviously others enjoy it! I won't be back, not from service or anything, just simply didnt truly enjoy the food. Hope you all give it your own chance! read more

This little gem was quite a surprise, just off I-84 at the Port of Morrow. The decor was typical small Mexican restaurant. My husband ordered Camarones a la diabla and I had Pollo a la crema. The beans were creamy and flavorful and the rice was the best I have ever eaten in a restaurant. The sauce on the camarones was spicy, but not too hot. The crema was rich and filled with chicken and veggies. Service was prompt and friendly. We look forward to stopping again when we are passing through. read more

We stopped by MacArios on our way to Idaho from Washington, saw the reviews on Yelp and decided to give it a try. The food and service were good, waiter was very friendly. We definitely recommend MacArios if you are passing through this area. BTW we were on a month long road trip towing our 5th wheel, plenty of space to park and easy to get to. read more

Stoped here today after a long day of traveling and doing photography nearby. We found this little gem on yelp. It's kind of hidden away in a semi-industrial area. My carne asada was excellent and my two friends loved their meals as well. Service was top shelf. I'll be back if I'm anywhere near here in the future. 5/5 stars!!! read more

Broke down in boardman. This place made the thousands of dollars and missed days with family worth it all. Service was quick, the cabbage salsa was phenomenal, but most of all, the fajitas rancheros was the best thing I have tasted in my life. Perfectly sauteed onions, crisp green peppers, a healthy amount of cheese above well seasoned chicken and bacon-wrapped (!!!) shrimp. Hands down, the only place in Boardman to love. read more

Excellent food! We won't be able to go through Boardman again without stopping to eat here. The fajita had awesome flavor and the house-made corn tortillas were superb. Flavorful and delicious salsa and pico. read more

All you need to know is that they wrap their fajita shrimp in bacon; God bless 'em. A real nice find in Boardman, take the time to look for it, very much worth the effort. Real hearty Mexican food a cut above the average place. read more

Quick service , great price, and very authentic. It's kind off the beaten trail to make it a regular stop. I do notice they sell a lot of to go orders. read more

Doesn't look great from the outside, but the food is outstanding! Attentive wait staff. read more

Good food & quality service. Their cabbage salsa is amazing. We had the veggie fajita, enchiladas & tostado salad. Everything was fresh & tasting good. The rice & beans in the above dishes were prepared really well. read more

Not sure where all of these good reviews are coming from? The food was extremely bland and too salty. Salsa was not good. Drinks weren't good and it was run down and dirty inside. The staff was at least friendly and polite so I'll give two stars. ‍ read more

You wouldn't expect much in Boardman, but this place is surprising and has a good menu. I've eaten here a number of times and the food is good. read more

EXCELLENT food and service. The margaritas are perfection and the food is always fresh and delicious! The wait staff and the owners are always on the ball and super friendly. I love supporting this local restaurant! read more

Great service local family owned and operated by. I'm in here at least once a week. Great food.

Chicken fajita burrito was yummy! The meat and onions was well seasoned and tender. Wasn't a fan of the salsa or cabbage salsa. Wait time was a little longer than we expected based on prior reviews. The Lemoncello lotion at the front counter was amazing! read more

Great service and food. This is the kind of place you go to eat on an afternoon when you want to get away from the same thing and enjoy an afternoon drive. read more

I'm from San Diego, where amazing Mexican food can be found just about anywhere. I was very impressed and surprised to find this place in Boardman, Oregon. Great service, excellent food. Anyone giving under 5 stars is crazy. I was here for work for 4 days and we ate here every night. read more

Everything on the menu is fantastic. Service is outstanding. They have a excellent menu. I would love to see a few beers from ordinance brewing offered (they are just down the street). If you are within 30 miles of this place you must stop and eat you will NOT be disappointed! read more

We're regulars because we're one of the 29 people who live in Boardman. We're also fortunate because we have such a high quality restaurant in town. The selection is good and I've enjoyed everything I've tried on the menu. read more

Excellent authentic fare! The food is fantastic and the staff friendly. The prices are fair and the interior is comfortable. Highly recommended. read more

Driving through Boardman we looked in Yelp for a place to eat. This place had quite a few good reviews so we tried it. It doesn't look like much from the outside but has a nice Mexican feel inside. The food was delicious, plentiful and is well deserving of the 4.5 stars! I give it 5 stars for the food. Can't comment on the drinks since we didn't have a margarita as we still had a ways to go. read more

Yuck! Ordered shredded beef and it come with gross ground beef! And furthermore who puts Parmesan cheese on Mexican food?

Prices are good. Food is good. Big portions. If in a booth. The backs are pretty weak and you will feel the person to your back pushing against you. read more

We love this place! Excellent food and service, and great prices! We ride our bikes from the rv park (Boardman Marina, another of our favorites!) so we can drink tequila without worrying about driving! And their chips are perfect and they make one of the tastiest fresh salsas (with cabbage!) that I have ever tasted, and believe me...I know my salsas! I wanted to just drink it! read more

It was well after noon and we needed good food. This place featured in all vegetarian menu and we enjoyed an avocado tostada and Guadalajara burrito. Strawberry lemonade was made with real whole strawberries! Service was very good, and the food tasted delicious. read more

It can be a long hungry drive between Portland and, say, Spokane, Idaho, and other points west, but this place is perfectly situated for a wonderful lunch. Judging from all the Spanish spoken and the number of local workers eating here, it's a local favorite and it's easy to see why: wonderful burritos, satisfying and delicious rice and beans, and--my favorite--huevos rancheros with a ranchero sauce that I still savor thinking about it. The staff are warm and friendly, and the food comes fast. It's tucked into a corner of a building and easy to miss among the industrial outfits, but well worth the stop, especially considering that you can drive for miles off the highway toward Umatilla and never see a place to eat, especially if you prefer local restaurants over chains. Both Boardman and the Port of Morrow exits get you to Macorio's, but perhaps the latter is closest. read more

Food was great. You would never look twice at this restaurant driving by. In fact, you might want to drive-by. But don't! The food was great and the service was awesome! Sometimes you find Gems in the smallest towns, And this is a real gem. read more

Amazing service, great food, good prices. Carne asada is top notch. Everything on the menu is delicious.

Hard to find but definitely worth looking for. Service was quick and friendly and the food was excellent. Best chile relleno I've ever had, and it's the dish I always order to check out a new Mexican restaurant. The cabbage salsa was amazing! I wish I could figure out what the interesting tasting herb in it was. The guacamole tasted like the avocado had just come off the tree. read more

Arrived before the lunch crowd. Sat promptly and enjoyed chips and salsa. Ordered tacos. Restaurant filled up. Others ordered and were served. Folks came and went while we still waited. After no explanation for 30+ minutes we left. Won't be back. Life's too short to deal with poor service. read more

Both mine and my boyfriends food was drenched in grease. Wasn't even able to eat my plate of quesadillas...
