Phenomenal. Flavorful. Fast. Great location connected to a neat bar. This still is the best bbq tacos I've had In Portland.
Holy moly. What a spot. Friends gassed it up, well the other location within a brewery, but they lost power. So, we landed at the truck location. Order on the POS, then you'll get a text when it's ready. While you're waiting, grab a beer on the inside, I got the bull run cider. For food - Chips and queso (bomb) - Chopped brisket taco - Beef taco supremo It's so good. Literally so good. Slapped sitting out in the heat and with a cider. Perfection. Matt's the man.
Highly recommend the Migas taco if you're looking for a taco that's absolutely loaded with toppings and flavor. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and the tortilla itself is so delicious and soft. I didn't get to try the other tacos in the picture, but everyone loved them. They're located in a food truck park that has plenty of shaded seating. You order up at the front on an iPad and receive a number that is called when the food is ready. Our food was prepared quickly. They had a variety of salsas - none were really that spicy but still quite tasty! Looking forward to coming back.
Love that they have a few vegetarian/vegan options, so I went for the beyond beef vegan taco. It looks simple but very filling. They seasoned the protein well and the corn tortilla was very authentic. Even their basic breakfast taco was top notch as well. They serve those all day Their bean dip was also very delicious. In addition, I got an order of chips and salsa. The tortilla chips were the crunchiest and some of the best I've had and their pico salsa went well. At almost $7 per taco and for the chips/salsa it is on the pricey side, but still worth a visit
Love the tacos here, especially the chopped brisket! At this point I feel like the only competition Matt's BBQ has is with their other locations!
Matt's BBQ tacos are simply the best of two worlds....BBQ and Tacos!!! Perfectly smoked brisket, pork belly are my two favorites but the hand made tortillas pickled onions take it over the top!! Highly recommended but don't think street tacos, more elevated Tex Mex tacos but absolutely delicious!!
This food cart pod is called the Hinterland Cart Pod, or more formally named the Hinterland Bar & Food Carts. It had a nice big seating area, all open and pretty clean. Matt's BBQ Tacos is located toward the back of the food cart pod, very Texan looking, as they serve Texas-style BBQ. You order from the touch screen by the serving window, or you can order from their website. The wait time is shown above it, and as it is a popular spot, the wait time can go up significantly in a matter of minutes. You get a text when your order is ready, which is convenient. We got three different kinds of tacos to start. Chopped Beef Taco Supreme, Chopped Brisket Breakfast Taco, and Brisket Taco. The tacos were all very tasty, with tender, juicy meat. It was packed with flavor, with a nice note of smokey flavor. The tacos are not big, and after sharing the three tacos between the two of us, we decided to get two more tacos since my hubby was still a bit hungry for more. We went with more breakfast tacos, Sausage Patty and Hashbrown Taco, and Pulled Pork Breakfast Taco. We enjoyed all the breakfast ones. I especially loved the hashbrown one, it was so good! Everything we had from Matt's BBQ Tacos were pretty good, although our second order of two tacos took forever as the wait time was nearly one hour. That tells you they are super popular!
The hype around this place is extensive. I was left no choice but to stuff 3 of these tacos in my mouth and judge myself. First off the concept is pretty novel. Really pushing our concept of what tacos are to the limits. Why not do a bbq and taco fusion? Why not do it at every bbq place? I haven't looked up any information on Matt but my guess is he's from Texas. Why should breakfast tacos be most popular in the southern states? This is a non political take on Tacos. All in all these tacos were really high level. There was a lot of talk of this being a top 5 food cart in the city. It didn't seem that way to me. But it's a pretty substantial and must be regarded at a high level. (4.6 Stars)
I can't believe I hadn't ever had BBQ meats in a taco before now--genius!! Matt's does it well with their homemade tortillas and well-seasoned sauces / guac / toppings. The G.O.A.T. was, in fact, the GOAT--so good. I also really liked the pork belly taco and felt it was pretty unique. The cheeseburger taco was also fun and well-crafted but I think benefited from adding their BBQ sauce. They allow for online ordering or there is a kiosk screen at the food cart and you get a text when your tacos are ready. There's a good amount of seating and even indoor, air conditioned seating options as well. This place is definitely worthy of it's reputation and worth a try! I will be back for the breakfast tacos!
A friend recommended this food truck to my husband and I and we were blown away by these tacos! I was expecting much smaller, street style tacos but that was not the case. The tacos came out quickly, were hot and filled to the brim with ingredients, making them messy but OH SO FUN. The menu has a lot of unique options such as the hash brown taco (a fan favorite of our table for sure), chopped brisket taco, and lots of breakfast style taco selections. I subbed out for corn tortillas and they were excellent and definitely seemed handmade. This food truck is connected to a bar/seating space called Hinterland, which you can order drinks from. It was nice to have an indoor heated space to enjoy our tacos and order a drink on such a chilly day. We will be coming back next time we visit Portland for sure!
This place was recommended to us by our tour guide, so we decided to give it a try. It was located in an area with several other food trucks, which made it a fun spot to stop for a bite. Both tacos were very flavorful! I do wish I had asked for corn tortillas instead. The service was quick, and our food was ready in a reasonable amount of time. And the queso dip was **so yummy!** Definitely worth trying. read more
On business in Portland, OR and it's time to put my Yelp bookmarks that I've accumulated in this area to good use! Lol. So it's #TacoTuesday and I absolutely had to hit up Matt's BBQ Tacos since I freaking saw them on Netflix's Street Food! Let's see how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: So Matt's is located in a food truck park on 50th Street between SE Lincoln Street and SE Division Street. There is no private parking so you'll have to find a place on the street to put your fly ride. But I really liked this place! There are several food "pods" all neatly lined up in a row. Seating is both "inside" and outside, meaning it's all outside, but some of the space is covered. The bar for the whole venue (Hinterland) is up front when you first walk in. But it was just real chill and I liked it. Service: Since it's a food truck, you just talk to them. Lol. But the folks running the truck were friendly, personable and real chill. Food: First up I tried their chips and queso! The chips were extra thick, giving that good quality crunch. They were hearty, a bit wheat-y, grainy, but most importantly, strong! To hold all the toppings! The queso wasn't as viscous as I thought (or would want) it would be, but perhaps because it was very hot when it first came out. But the flavors were light and not as deep or rich as I had anticipated. Really good queso though! Our first taco was the Pork Belly Breakfast Taco which comes with refried beans, queso, scrambled eggs and a fresh flour tortilla. The tortillas were absolutely hand-made and had little air pockets in certain places that just gave it a more unique touch. The taco was indeed messy, but was FANTASTIC. I expected an abundance of salt, but nope, it was so well-balanced. It was easily one of my favorite tacos I had ever had! There were also 3 sauces you can get to go along with the tacos. One was recommended for each. The sweet BBQ was amazing. It had hints of raspberry, blackberry and other fruits. It was a little thinner of a sauce, but I LOVED it with this taco specifically. I wish I could've bought a bottle to take home! The Pulled Pork Taco comes with pulled pork, guacamole, pickled onion and pickled jalapeno. The pork was so powerful and let you know it was in the taco. Good porky, fatty saltiness from it. The pickled vegetables added a great texture-breaker amongst the tender pork. I then added a tomatillo sauce that was much thicker than the rest. Lots of strong cilantro with a little bit of lime flavoring came through along with solid salt and acidity. Last, but not least we have the Chopped Brisket Taco. This was the one that mostly featured on the show so I saved it for last. It's hot brisket tossed in "hot dip" then served with the same vegetables as the last one. So... I don't want to say I was let down, but the brisket was much thicker and denser than the pulled pork was. I preferred the other one better. But the taco was good, I just wasn't blown away like I was with the other 2. The sauce for this one was the chipotle sauce that was nice and thick. The sauce certainly added some moisture to the taco, but the sauce was a little too much for me. It was gritty, briny, dense, heavy and a bit Earthy. Value: In my personal opinion, the tacos are worth what I paid. Back when I came, the Pork Belly Breakfast taco was $6.50. Online it's now $1.00 more. The Pulled Pork was $6.00, but an added $0.50 each for the queso and jalapeno. The same taco has only gone up $0.25. The Chopped Brisket taco was $6.25 and now it's $7.25. In my opinion, it's still worth it. In conclusion, I'd revisit this place in a heartbeat! I loved it here! Now they have smoked chicken tacos and stuff! So I'd want to try out some new stuff! I hope you guys come and check it out while continuing to support local businesses! read more
Breakfast tacos were amazing. Tortillas are handmade. The hot mess taco was one of the best things I've ever eaten - spicy, saucy, and textured. Migas also pretty good. One is enough for breakfast but you'll eat two anyway. Service is ordering through a screen and then very prompt after that. The food cart pod has lots of indoor and outdoor space and and a great bar - it's a fun place. read more

This food truck situation really gets creative w tacos- which I'm a big fan of. Top notch bbq meats and a slew of other options depending on what you're in to. I'm a huge fan of brisket so they had me at hello. Wifey and I were brought here while visiting friends and had a great overall time. Service was quick, easy and staff was helpful and fun to talk to. Plenty of seats inside or out. Highly recommend. read more

This review is for the NE Alberta location inside Great Notions. Matt's BBQ Tacos are the best in the city. My go to tacos are the breakfast and lunch pork belly tacos. Watch for the time and lines. But absolutely worth it. Street parking. read more

I was traveling from Seattle and stopped by for some tacos. Everything was delicious but my husband and I especially loved all the breakfast tacos! Would highly recommend :) read more
An unsuspecting food truck with mighty flavors! It's located in a place called Hinterland Bar & Carts. The truck is at the end of the row, near their version of indoor/outdoor seating. During the winter it's basically covered outdoor seating with heat lamps. The dining area can be pretty chilly depending on when you go (especially at night) but it's nice that they have a fair amount of seating, self-serve water, and a modest shelter from the wind and rain. I ordered the chopped brisket breakfast tacos which consist of brisket, potato, cheddar, and eggs. The brisket was the epitome of juicy. The tortilla and eggs were soft and warm. The cheese on top brought all the breakfast flavors together. It's safe to say my tastebuds were happy! The size of the tacos are surprisingly deceiving as they leave you feeling very full (in a good way). There is a good amount of street parking since it's near a residential area. The server who handed me my food was kind. The ordering process was easy peasy as you order via a tablet located at the front of the truck and they text you when your order is ready. Matt's BBQ Tacos set my expectations high for food trucks and I'm looking forward to trying out other combinations. read more

Their tacos are worth the wait. I usually get the GOAT taco when available and it is truly an amazing combo in a taco: pulled pork and brisket with flour and corn tortilla. Genius. Their migas taco is truly so good and you will automatically regret not ordering two of them after the first bite. Love bringing friends in town to show off this place. read more
So fast and so good. The GOAT taco is by far the best, even though all the tacos are great. The meat is always so tender and flavorful. They also serve breakfast tacos all day now which is fantastic even though I prefer their non-breakfast taco options. The self serve kiosks are easy to use and make ordering a breeze. read more
I didn't think this place was going to live up to the hype... but it certainly did! Something about their combination of fresh ingredients, flavors, and textures in each bite makes these BBQ tacos insanely addictive. You order from a food truck outside and eat in an indoor/outdoor space with space heaters. I came here in the dead of winter and it was a little cold in some of the seating areas, but I forgot all about that as soon as I started eating. I usually snap a few pictures of the food but these guys were gone in just a few minutes. They're also very filling since they're very meat-forward tacos, as the name implies. I would say 2-3 tacos should be more than enough. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience here and will definitely be back for more. read more
I had wondered about this place for a while and was excited to try it. I got the migas and smoked turkey tacos (both sans cheese). The migas taco was really sumptuous and had solid flavors. The smoked turkey although good just threw my tastebuds off since it gave me lots of Big Mac vibes with the burger toppings and mustard/mayo sauce. I would say both needed salsas which I think is actually a good thing since they were seasoned appropriately for salsafying. They were kind of pricey but also quite large. I felt the breakfast tacos would probably be a better deal in the future. read more
Matt's BBQ is our go to weekend brunch! They serve delicious breakfast tacos all day long as well as typical taco fare. The tacos are served with an array of sauces for your liking. I love the green sauce! I would recommend adding their house made queso to any taco! My husband especially enjoys the GOAT taco, which does not include goat meat! It really is the greatest of all time. We will be back! read more
