He was hilarious, welcoming, and just genuinely fantastic at what he does. He kept joking that I must be Latina because I could say a few words, which turned into such a fun conversation.

On top of the amazing service, the food was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Luís really elevated the whole experience, but the combination of his personality and the incredible food made this a place we'll definitely be coming back to. Highly recommend!

Ever since I regularly started to visit Portland a few years back, multiple friends who had also…read morevisited the city had recommended Taco Escobarr. I had never taken them up on their recommendation in the past, though, as I don't find Mexican food in the Northeast to be anything special - and I'm not really in the mood for it when in Maine. However, I was looking to try some new (to me) spots this past trip, and was in the mood for Mexican, so I decided to check it out for dinner. Escobarr is located on Congress Street - I had always been told this is a super popular spot however when I arrived on a Wednesday evening it was only half full so I easily snatched a seat at the bar. The interior is fun - the vibes are relaxed and the decor is just enough to let you know you're in a Mexican restaurant without being too over the top. The aesthetic highlights for me was the large string of pepper lights hanging from the ceiling, and the bangin' millennial playlist they were playing. I decided to start with a margarita, because Mexican restaurant. They have a variety of flavors but I went simple with their signature one. It was pretty good, nothing too noteworthy but a solid marg nonetheless. As suggested by the name, the star of the menu is tacos - they have a good variety of fillings, and can be purchased a la carte or in combination with sides. They also have a few non-taco offerings, though less than a standard Mexican restaurant - this is mainly a taco joint. I decided on three tacos - chicken, chorizo, and al pastor, and ordered a side of beans. Food came out super fast, and overall my meal was fine. These weren't the best tacos I've had, but they did hit the spot and the filling was generous. The side of beans was fine as well - they were beans. Note that chips and salsa are not obligatory here, kinda odd but maybe that's just their thing. After another round and some nice conversation with some other patrons and the staff, I made my way. Service was great - the staff were super fun and engaging with each other and the customers. That, along with the fun vibes are the reasons I feel one would come to Taco Escobarr. The food is just fine, but the overall experience was good. Would I return for the vibes alone? Perhaps, but I'm not running back.

They have approximately seating for 30 or so, but are very popular for take-out. This is a go-to place for my Dad and I tend to tag along. The staff is very friendly and the ambiance is the typical Mexican style with complimenting decor. Food is made fairly fast and the quality of the food is decent. The plain burritos are made with ground meet, somewhat seasoned, the refried beans were as expected and the rice was a bit on the dry side like it had been sitting around. You get plenty of food which is why they are a popular spot. If you are looking to satisfy those Mexican cravings, this is a good spot to hit. I won't criticize it for not being fully authentic, because they don't claim to be. They advertise americanized style Mexican and that is what you get.
