This has been mine and my husbands favorite taco spot for over 6 years. Before the pandemic, this was our go-to spot for date night. The food and drinks are INSANELY good. We have tried so many other places in Portland and no where can compare. My personal favorite is the queso and chips and Al Pastor taco… I can’t even describe how yummy they are ahhhhh.
We moved away in 2018 and came back in 2020. We were so sad (my heart was CRUSHED) to see La Taq was permanently closed but I drove by one time maybe 6 months ago and saw LA TAQ WAS OPEN!! I literally about cried I was so excited. We finally made it over here tonight and it’s just like how we remembered it. So so so good. And we will be back. Thank you for opening again 🥹🙏🏻
My daughter took me here for dinner, and I'm so glad she did! The staff were friendly and helpful. The margaritas were delicious. I highly recommend the tacos and the chips and salsa--darn tasty. My new go to for Mexican food.
This is a quaint place that is super casual and relaxed. When you walk in you seat your self and will find water and menus already waiting for you on your table. Grab a table and check out the La Taq menu. We wanted to order a cheese dip but couldn’t choose between the green Chile queso or the fundido. Our server told us the difference (queso like Tostitos salsa con queso/velveta cheese) we went for the fundido, it was really spicy and I like spicy stuff. It basically was melted gooey cheese and peppers. Not too much flavor and I was sweating lol. The tortillas that it came with were really good but we ran out of them fast. I wouldn’t get it again. Probably go for the cheaper option of the green chile queso. We did get chips and salsa, the salsa was really good. I preferred the red salsa but the green was good too. Lots of flavor and heat! I ordered the tacos: rojas poblanos (veggie) and shrimp taco. The veggie taco was alright, really Tex mex and true to the flavors but the shrimp taco was AMAZING. If you like shrimp but are hesitant about it being fried, it’s surprisingly really good. Great flavors. Friend ordered enchiladas and somehow got the combination plate... the combination plate has a lot going on and was HUGE. my friend barely ate it. Anyways great place for tacos and finger food! And the service was great!
