Located in the downtown Forest Grove area, close to Pacific University. Seems like a local hangout, and now issues finding parking, as we've always found street parking in front of the place. As we entered, it wasn't very busy, and no one greeted us at the entrance. But no big deal really, as the waitress (possibility manager) sat us at a table close to the kitchen. Service was pleasant and courteous, and on-point with the water refills. The dining area was pretty large and clean. I can only imagine, pre-pandemic, how popular this place would have been. Second time here, unfortunately no a/c to cool the place down. The guy serving us busted his arse to keep the place open for business. We had small samples bites and wanted to leave. $11 Korean BBQ Boneless Wings were glazed up good and not too hot in my opinion. However, the menu offers a lot to choose from, and the pricing is reasonable. Thus far I have not been upset with any of the dishes I've ordered. Would I come back? Yes, it's still a decent spot to hang out at, so long as there's good air flow and nice weather outside.

Spicy ramen and kalbi bowl! Both yummy.

RAMEN!!!

Every single person I've interacted with has been so incredibly kind, so don't be afraid to ask for recommendations. They have a full coffee menu, make their own syrups, and often have an employee special that's fun to try! Don't skip a drink! They also offer an array of pastries and bread. I love their almond croissant, even though it's not usually my first choice. There are so many layers and it's so flavorful. I'm also a big fan of their breakfast sandwich, mostly because it comes on a croissant. Honestly, you can't go wrong here. Do yourself a favor and give this place a try next time you are in the area, you won't regret it. And heads up that they also have a spot at the Orenco Farmers market so you can grab pastries there as well!

I just wanted to buy some drinks for my team and cheer up myself…read more I wasn't greeted by the woman at the window, and when I greeted her, I received silence. To make matters worse, they don't have blended chai drinks, or the food I'm used to having with my coffee. This is a 100% decline from my experiences here in the past. I used to be a regular drink customer and grabbed food here as well and just felt like returning to say hi. I've spent over $500 at this cart in the past, you'd think I'd earn the kind of value that others receive, but after my harrowing experience today, I drove away from a coffee cart without buying a single item, and that says it all because I have a coffee addiction!!! Only go here if you want a dash of PMS with your morning brew.

Ah, end-of-semester in Forest Grove: The temperatures rise, the sun emerges from hiding, and a…read morecertain class of local customer vents its spleen about reasonable levels of service that they've taken as personal slights and affronts to their character. Corona, unfortunately, is a magnet for this type of individual. A counter-service taqueria that prides itself on a robust menu (including a college-town eating contest involving a burrito roughly the size of an anaconda), party cocktails (snake-green margarita with energy drink, anyone?), and a festive atmosphere of live music, theme parties, comedy, and karaoke. It's a place that's typically a beloved college-town staple, but has its rating knocked down a few pegs around this time of year by disgruntled customers looking to settle scores. Armed with petty resentments stemming from an occasion when the restaurant confiscated their fake ID, cut off alcohol service to them and their pre-gamed and over served friends, or booted them out of the place for being their worst selves, these folks will navigate a platform's rules to insist that--suddenly and swiftly--the quality of its food/drinks/service has gone into the toilet. Well, despite what the end-of-semester tide of vitriol indicates, Corona is every bit what it once was... even if that fairly low bar was near-campus party restaurant. The food is neither the best nor worst in this corner of Washington County (amid strong competition), the drinks tend toward goofy hummingbird feed but are still as inexpensive and potent as campus adjacency would suggest, and the service holds up remarkably well for a staff that's regularly dealing with clientele that's still approaching the world in its service-industry training wheels. A rural college town can be a difficult setting for any restaurant. You're asked to cater to more cosmopolitan diets that the surrounding area typically addresses and, at the same time, are asked to please a clientele that chooses its entrees based on photographs of food included with the menu. If there's a middle ground, it seldom shows up in reviews. But Corona has weathered far worse than seasonal agitation--it was nearly destroyed by an arsonist in 2023--and continues to provide a more consistent menu and community space than the end-of-semester screeds suggest. It's difficult to please everyone in this kind of college town, but Tacqueria Corona has become exactly the resilient staple Forest Grove and Pacific students (and faculty) deserve.

If you bought a Groupon, they won't use the paper copy you print but then they "don't know" the wifi password so using it on the app or website proves almost impossible. Service is so bad in there that you need the wifi....I went out in the pouring rain to the corner of the street to try and get service to load the Groupon. Even though the Groupon says you can use it on "food and drink" the restaurant told me we couldn't use it on alcohol. No where does it say that on their Groupon. Finally, the prices of their food was high especially considering you don't really get any service to your table, had to find napkins, and you have to pay for chips and salsa. I went to order a virgin strawberry daiquiri and it was $12. The reason this place isn't getting 1 star from me is that the food was fine and not bad at all.
