Taco Machine - Veggie taco with mushroom and a shrimp taco (that batter is next level delicious) - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I work off Killingsworth and have been to Taco Machine quite a few times. I've tried a lot of items off their menu and would definitely recommend. What surprised me was the service when dining in... they have a covered dining area and bring you a plate of food with a variety of sauces. It's outdoor seating only, so not sure I can speak to the ambiance... it might be a bit cold during the winter months for dining in, but their food is authentic and they have some creative burrito and taco options. read more

Good food. Fast service. There is always the same chef each time I go and she does a really nice job making sure everything is right. Tacos were good and sometimes we grab the nachos with a vegetarian option which is a good way to get the kids to have some veggies as a picnic in nearby Alberta park. read more

The wonderful lady who runs this cart is great. The food is consistently good and I recommend the Sinaloa burrito and tacos especially. Her chili relleno is also good but can sell out! read more

This is one of my favorite taquerias in Portland. I usually order Al Pastor tacos, and they are consistently high quality, affordable, made quickly, and of course super friendly. read more

Taco Machine - Al Pastor tacos. $2.50 and so good - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Great tacos, I like the pastor a lot. It's not the juiciest I've had but it's never too fatty or gristly and we'll seasoned. They've been making a lot of upgrades, improving their truck and seating area for customers which means their prices have had to go up (3.50 per taco, which seems almost standard now at many places). They do Taco Tuesday tho where you can still get them for 2.50! They've also expanded their menu a lot with things like tortas, quesadillas, and Sinaloan tacos (w/ melted cheese and pepper). Great vegetarian options too, you can mix n match to create your own veggie tacos from their list of ingredients. They've got a bunch of tasty house sauces and the ladies are always nice. read more

Some of the best tacos in Portland, with a great selection of salsa. They have a solid menu with plenty of options, generous portions, and great carne asada fries. This isn't San Diego or East LA, so let's not compare it to places with access to way more high-quality and fresh ingredients. Taco Machine does a great job, provides great service, and fills a taco-shaped hole in our community. read more

Great tacos!! The asada meat was really tasty and juicy. The salsas were really good as well. I got two tacos (one of them Sinaloa style) and it was very authentic to Mexican food that I grew up with pleasantly surprised! read more

So good! I love this place. The meats are delicious, the staff is friendly and they have nacho cheese! Say what you will, cheese sauce on a great nacho just makes it more amazing. I love that liquid gold! I've had nachos here, the carne asada fries, quesadillas and tonight tried the mulita. It's the size of a medium pizza and can feed like a medium pizza would ( def 2-3 people). It had carnitas, cheese, onions, cilantro... amazing. It didn't taste heavy either! Not sure if it was the cilantro, but it just didn't taste like a greasy, gut bomb like you might expect. It's hard to explain. I also had a breakfast burrito but haven't gotten to it yet because I was full off 2 slices of the mulita and cheese fries. Yeah! Nacho cheesy fries! Another thing that really tickles me is that they actually put some effort into packing your food. For example: the nachos. It's not just stuff thrown over chips. It's layered and well topped. You won't eat all the topping and be left with chips at the bottom. No. No sir-y. That bitch will be meaty and cheesy from start to finish! And the giant quesadilla slices are strategically placed in the box. Ahh... it's just the small things that make a difference for me. But most importantly to me - the meats are all good. No grisly asada, bland chicken or soggy carnitas. When you've got a solid base, everything else just falls into place. Support small and local folks. We need places like this to stick around! read more

Taco Machine - Carnitas Mulita $17(?) - like a giant quesadilla and comes with a giant handful of fries. Enough to feed 2-3 hungry people! - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

They have a Chilaquiles burrito! That should be enough to get you to check it out by itself, in my opinion! I picked up my Chilaquiles burrito drove to the 7-11 and bought a drink, then drove another 20 minutes back to work. Got to my desk and unwrapped the delicious burrito, took a bite and miraculously the yolk from the eggs was still runny! I can't even get over easy eggs that good from most breakfast diners! I ate the entire thing (which was just as big as you would expect from a good place) in one sitting, which probably wasn't the best idea but it was delicious and I couldn't stop. They have a bunch of different sauces available and many other options to eat. I want to come back and try their tacos, but its going to be really difficult to not get the Chilaquiles burrito again. read more

Listen, do not be fooled by these other reviews. I've tried this place on atleast three separate occasions and have held off on making this review.... I hoped desperately for the food to be good but it is not. Their tacos and burritos are not good, it's that simple. All of their meat choices lack serious flavor that you can only salvage by drowning it in salsa and mayo. This is not a great restaurant but will not make you sick atleast so there's that! read more

This would be 3.5 stars if Yelp left half stars. We've been trying all the Mexican spots on Killingsworth, and around nearby, to figure out the best. This one is very good if large portions are what you're into. My wife got soles, I got a burrito, and my mother in law got a chicken quesadilla. My wife seemed satisfied with the sopes. I wasn't unhappy with the carne asada burrito - though the cheese wasn't quite melted, which does tend to be the glue of the whole burrito experience. Our foods temperature was all pretty lukewarm, but not dissatisfyingly so, not a deal breaker... my mother in law felt the the quesadilla was enormous! I had some reheated a bit later and it was pretty tasty. The chicken was still very tender. Wife and I ate there - there's some limited seating options that I found to be endearing. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again, but I'm also not rushing to go back. There's not really any bike parking, but it's a food truck, so like. Idk that it's necessary? Just hold your bike? read more

The food is so good I would give them my first born child if they asked. We stumbled upon it and I can only imagine it as fate. Thank you Taco Machine. Thank you. read more

There is a feeling of guilt that comes from leaving a bad review for what seems to be a small family run business. That said on the other hand I read all these great reviews and expected something excellent which is clearly not fair to me. Anyhow zero flavor but big portions, try at your own risk. read more

A breakfast burrito is in the upper echelon of my favorite food. And there's such a variety of experience from place to place. Here, it was good - as in I'd probably order again - but not in a I must stop because there's a parking spot out front kind of way. It's not one thing that defines an awesome BB, but crisp hash browns usually captures my taste buds. Here they weren't cubed, not mashed, but somewhere in between. Eggs had brown spots which means they were over cooked to my liking (though many seem to prefer them that way.). The tortilla was warm, but no crisp edges. Size was a touch smaller than at other food carts, but price was $5 which is on the very low end of the scale. I was excited to see Orange, and not Red, salsa. Unfortunately, it was very underwhelming (as was the green sauce.) Service was friendly and quicker than expected. Parking blows enchiladas. 3.5 stars rounded up based on one visit. read more

They are open again. Fix your shiz yelp! They are delicious and sweet to deal with every time read more

Good authentic tacos. I ordered the taco plate with a side of French fries. If you're ever in the neighborhood, pay them a visit.

I'm a taco-eating machine, so it stands to reason that I'd like a place called Taco Machine. And like a machine, Taco Machine does its job and does it without much flash or fanfare. A solid Mexican food cart. I've had both tacos and burritos from this NE Killingsworth cart, and both were quite good. The tacos are straightforward, with your choice of protein and accompanied by white onion and cilantro. Throw on some salsa and you've got about the most traditional street taco you can find. The burritos are a bit beefed up, with rice, beans, sour cream, cheese, lettuce, tomato and guacamole. Nice to find guac automatic. That is, unless you don't like guac. But what kind of monster doesn't like guac? Prices are definitely on point, too. Tacos are $1.75 each, and my (huge) burrito was $8. This neighborhood is so rapidly changing and offering bougie food at bougie prices, so it's nice to get a no-nonsense, delicious, traditional meal. read more

The tortillas came from a bag. Fresh Mexican = homemade tortillas. Makes me wonder where else they're taking shortcuts. Tacos were average. A step above Taco Bell. read more

Absolutely delicious. I wish I lived closer. The fish tacos were KILLER. The flavors were perfect. read more

The best tacos in all of Oregon. My son and I wanted to try it for the longest so when we traveled to Portland, we had to try!!!! They were so accommodating and the food was awesome! We will def be back. Oh and the habanero sauce is amazing! read more

I still give it 5 stars because the quality of food is very tasty, however after going to many many food trucks around the Oregon area, I would say it's little on the pricey side of things for what they serve. If you don't mind spending a little more for your money then yes 5 stars read more

My tacos and husband's burrito had no flavor. Even the guacamole and green salsa had zero flavor. I wanted to love it but won't be returning. It is exceptionally clean though! read more

Great people making great food. Taco Machine is a solid cart with reasonably priced tasty burritos. I stop by weekly and they always deliver. read more

Moved from Cali to oregon so flavor is a huge thing for me when it comes to tacos,burritos,and tortas. With that being said. I am a bit bias but food in california will always be better but Taco machine did come close! Portion size are big, food had flavor, the salsa's were delicious, friendly service, and a very clean and well maintained food truck. I will be coming back! Thank you taco machine!! read more

Eh, not impressed. Coming for the Bay Area, have had a lot of tacos, burritos, and trucks. This does not really stand up to those. Carne Asada is what I compare most taco places to, and here it did not have the char that it needed and the burst of flavor needed to counterbalance avocados and tomatoes. I will probably not come back but try the myriad of other trucks around. read more

100% THE BEST NACHO IN PORTLAND IF NOT THE WORLD! Always consistent. I literally crave these and treat myself every now and then. There's something about how they layer the chips with the goods! OMG. So good. And it's cheese sauce not melted shredded cheese-even better because who wants that cold glob of congealed cheese after nachos cool off? Not me. I'm no vegan or vegetarian, but I didn't want meat and they had 4 substitutions for meat! I tried the "soyrizo" and it was delicious. Hands down, my favorite nacho spot!! read more

Absolutely delicious breakfast burritos! Reasonbly priced. The flavor in the breakfast burritos is savory making for a perfect breakfast option. read more

Perfect street tacos and the best green sauce on the planet. Definitely check this place out

The friendly little taco truck. This place is such a nice treat in the middle of Killingsworth. I've been here many times and really love the California burrito (al pastor) and the carne asada fries. The owner and her family are super sweet too! read more

Best burritos and tortas in Portland! The couple who owns it is SO friendly, the food comes fast, is affordable, and none of the crazy "scene" that has taken over across the street. Solid, great salsas, and amazing chilaquiles! This place is an institution! read more

Taco Machine has made it's way onto the block in an amazing way! They have brought a new twist on how you do street tacos. Staff is wonderful and even better that the food is DELICIOUS. read more

With mixed feelings, I am updating my review and subtracting stars. I love their zucchini tostadas, so much. Yet, my most recent visit is the reason for the change. I ordered my zucchini tostadas and a carnitas taco right before a group of three ordered. I sat down as usual to wait for my order. The lady brings out and order to the table of three waiting for their to-go orders, no biggie. Then another one of their orders. Kind of weird but ok. Then the last person's order for the group of three. In that time, the first person has placed their order in their vehicle while waiting for their friends to get their order. Then, the lady asks me if i had ordered a shrimp burrito, which was actually the first person's order. I tell her as much, she takes my order from the other customer and in front of me puts it in a new paper bag and hands it to me. No offer to remake my order, since it had obviously been given to someone else. I didnt know what to do or say. I took my order home. I dont feel comfortable causing a scene or demanding things. Word the the wise, make sure you get what you ordered. read more

I loved it! the fish taco sauce they make is a must. They have vegetarian and vegan options and even though the menu has those options for the tostadas I asked for vegetarian sopes, seems that you can make vegetarian or vegan any dish they have. I want to go back and try everything! read more

I really like this place. The pork sopes are so fantastic and everything is served with this creamy garlicky red spicy sauce that is to die for. And the woman working is incredibly friendly and a delight every time I go. read more

Excellent tacos and nachos. Prices very reasonable. Their homemade sauces are money.

So good and fast! Just had the burrito and it was just the right size -- not one of those giant ones the size of a small child but still really filling. Came with chips and sauce which was definitely an added surprise. Only word of feedback would be to switch to paper bags for to-go orders and chips! Your staff was super nice, so high5 the lady working the register tonight! read more
