    Tacos: a love story…read more So on thanksgiving I was desperate to find tacos. Not being a big turkey girl, and having moved here ten years ago from San Francisco where authentic Mexican food flows like water, I was craving a taste of home. Just as I was about to give up and head home I discovered what I believe to be the most authentic Mexican food I have had in Oregon, ever. It's tucked next to a smoke shop in a strip mall in mikwaukie, the sign has no light and you have to go through a store to get to the restaurant - it's not an easy spot to find. Without a bit of luck I never would have found it as Google doesn't even know it's there. But it is. And friends of OCCC I tell you, if you're craving that sweet carnitas with crispy edges in a homemade corn tortilla topped with fresh cilantro? This is your place Or tender Barbacoa wrapped in a giant (and I mean f*cking GIANT) flour tortilla stuffed to the brim with beans and rice and crema, this is still your place. Menudo? They gotchoo, boo. Spice hound like me? They make a habanero salsa - a rarity in mikwaukie. The family who owns it are kind, generous and will help you choose if you're faced with too many delicious decisions. And they're open every day for pickup, which makes me a happy, happy girl. Let me know what you think, or if you are already a regular, let me know your secret/favorite dishes to try! Los Amigos: 17419 SE Mcloughlin Mikwaukie, Oregon 97267 (Tucked into a strip mall!)

    Their masa para tamales is always smooth and tasty. I've been going there over 5 years. It's ready…read more for you to make it your own!

    My friend said, "Let's go eat at this bomb Mexican place". I was expecting a nice sit-down…read morerestaurant. I was surprised when we pulled into this fast-food place. I was skeptical and a little disappointed. I took some time to look over the extensive menu. I was torn between a few things. My friend thought she was ordering the mini chicken burritos, and I ordered the cheese enchilada and chile relleno combo plate. The inside is small with limited seating. I asked if I could get a wet towel to wipe down a table. An employee came to clean the table for us. As we waited for our number to be called, I commented that I wished they had chips and salsa. My friend said they do, you just have to pay for it. I guess I should have looked at the menu a little closer. Finally got our food, and it looked appetizing. I was not disappointed with the flavors or temperature of the food. The relleno was authentic, and the cheese in the enchilada had just the right amount of pull. The rice was good too. My friend commented that she was going to save half of her enormous burrito for later. Well, that didn't happen. She finished it all. I had too much food and took it back to the hotel to have for dinner the next day. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely come back.

    Adelina's Mexican Food…read more I absolutely adore this food cart through and through - and I can never get enough! Every single time I order from Adelina's, the food is fresh, incredibly flavorful, and made with so much care. There's a perfect balance of zest and spice in everything I've tried -- bold without ever being overpowering. The owners and staff deserve a shoutout on their own. They are genuinely kind, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do, and you can feel and taste that love and passion for their craft in every bite! The location is also a huge bonus. Being tucked into Corner 14 Food Carts in downtown Oregon City makes it the perfect stop -- grab food, go axe throwing, enjoy a beer at the bar, and explore the other carts... though honestly, Adelina's is always my top choice. Now let's talk food -- because WOW. The esquites are an absolute flavor bomb: creamy mayo, cotija cheese, tajín, and a slice of lime on top that you can squeeze fresh for that bright pop of citrus. It's indulgent, balanced, and so satisfying. Now: the underdog that everyone needs to try from Adelina's is their famous Tamales! I swear they are a major standout -- ONE OF THE BEST MADE AROUND PORTLAND! I mean the corn wrapping is perfect: not too thick, not too thin. Topped with crema and cotija, it's rich without feeling heavy. Don't even get me started about the flavor of the meat inside because the red sauce they make can use for their chicken inside the tamale... Unreal. I've also tried their beans and rice, plus the house guacamole (DO NOT SKIP ON THE GUAC; it reminds me of the table-side service guacamole we had in Puerto Vallarta) which is full of fresh vibrant flavor salted to perfection; it's finished with cilantro and lime for a fresh, clean bite. It's the perfect addition to literally anything on the menu. Anytime I'm feeling a little down or just need something filling that doesn't feel heavy or unhealthy, this is where I go. Adelina's always resets my day in the best way. If you haven't stopped by yet, please do -- or order pickup/delivery through DoorDash and taste for yourself and add another local staple to your family's favorite spots! There's something incredibly healing about food made with love, and this small local business truly knows what they're creating.

    Food was very delicious and authentic. The customer service was great. 10/10 recommend!read more

It's street parking which can be tricky in that area. Their menu had lots of great options. It was my first time here and was a little bummed that chips and salsa had to be ordered and was not complimentary. Also we had some kids in our group and they didn't have a mild salsa so the kids didn't really eat any of the salsa. Personally I liked their house salsa and also appreciated that they had 3 sauces you could use for your food at a counter to the side which included mild (verde salsa), medium and spicy. The kids didn't like the verde salsa either. Highlights- My daughter loved her steak taco and I really liked my 2 tacos- camarones and barbacoa. All 3 tacos had lots of protein on them which was awesome. We really liked our waitress Kimberlee. She took great care of us! Our friend really liked her margarita and fun bowl. Another friend loved her calabacitas taco. Things to note- There is not a kid's menu, but they do have a little quesadilla on their menu. I personally would skip the side of beans and rice and order another taco. We got a couple of orders of beans and rice and that was the only thing no one (adults and kids) didn't really liked. We ordered guacamole to start and it didn't have much flavor it was okay, but not great. There is a 5% 'happy kitchen' fee added to the bill. Overall I would recommend checking out this place! I hope to go back in the future to try their mole negro enmoladas.
