Clean, bright dining area. Food was not flavorful. Not bad, just boring. Not the flavors that I remember from NM. I wanted to like this place but it needs a little spark. Lots of unrealized potential.

Food was fresh but not flavorful. I didn’t enjoy my meal at all though it looked delicious. I had the taco salad, wasn’t what I expected at all.

As a native New Mexican, I can’t over-praise Adobe Rose! Finally a «New Mexican» restaurant with actual New Mexican cuisine! The prices are great, the ingredients are fresh, and all the food is made-to-order. For me it was an added bonus that the chile(both red and green) and beans are vegan. That being said, there’s certainly something for everyone looking for some authentic New Mexico! They also serve beer and cocktails. I had the Taco Salad without the cheese and my cohort had Green Chile Enchiladas with an added egg. You can choose mild, medium, or hot green chile. He went medium, which was great, but will definitely go hot next time! After trying several«New Mexican» places around town we are so stoked about Adobe Rose! We’ll definitely be back! After reading other reviews I think some are unduly harsh. Do I feel like I’m sitting in A New Mexican restaurant eating the cuisine? No. Of course not. You need to go to NM for that. Do I think this is the closest thing to home that I’ve found thus far in the Pacific NW? Yes! And I’m super happy to have found it.

Was excited to get my NM food fix since moving away from home. I was highly disappointed. The red chile was grainy and undercooked. The green chile was straight out of a can. The tacos looked and tasted like elementary school tacos. The meat was not seasoned at all. The carne adovada was, well, not carne adovada. It was unseasoned pork. We were also the youngest people in there. I would hate for someone to think the food at Adobe Rose accurately portrays New Mexican food. It does not. I did not get my NM food fix. The search continues!

I’m shocked — SHOCKED — that anyone would rate this place 5 stars. The chips and salsa were horrible. My burrito was flavorless and wrapped in a doughy tortilla. My date’s taco plate looked like it came from an elementary school cafeteria. The chicken inside the tacos smelled and tasted funny. If you’re in the neighborhood and want Mexican — go to Cha Cha Cha across the street. It’s a million times better.

My wife and I love this place and eat there almost weekly. The food is always made from the freshest ingredients and has a marvelous Southwest flavor. I have never had a bad meal there: never. All the dishes — tacos, burritos, tostadas, enchiladas — are prepared pretty simply and with as much or as little spiciness as desired. They make an especially wonderful posole, though its seasonal, and the corn chowder is also delightful. Further, the owners — Terry and Larry — could not be nicer. Eating there is like eating with family. The prices are also ridiculously reasonable. Try it!

Best NM style food in Portland period! From there chicken flautas to their La Casa Burrito topped with Hatch Green Chile, I have to say it’s my favorite spot to eat. A cool pint glass of Corona, perhaps a shot or two, and I’m feeling pretty happy. Can’t beat it with price neither. Lots of food for very little money.

Great New Mexican food coming from a real New Mexican. Had the Green Chile Stew and I was whisked back to NM. Fantastic place

Seemed like everything was store bought. I had a chicken burrito and it was unseasoned chicken beast wrapped on a flour tortilla with canned green chillies and a little cheese on top. Very bland… And I ordered it spicy!

The gentlemen who run this café are quite enjoyable. They are polite, efficient, warm, and have the common sense not to interrupt a conversation. The food is quite good, on the healthy side so not piping hot and drenched in cheese. For my son and I, the most amazing thing about this place is how quickly they can get you in and back out. On piano lesson night, it’s GREAT to go to a sure bet where you know you won’t be late.

Bland food, bleak atmosphere, slow service, high prices, made me mildly ill. Nope.

Not a great representation of «New Mexican» food, but I think it is as close as you are going to get in Portland Oregon. I transplanted here from Albuquerque, New Mexico and sorely miss the regional cuisine. I come here primarily for the Sopapillas, which are not your typical crispy cinnamon doused one(which I don’t care for). These also are not that great, unfortunately, especially when you compare them with those in the southwest, but sometimes you just have to settle for something.

I have been coming to The Adobe Rose since I was a wee little toddler. Larry and Terry are Amazing! This restaurant is always packed with regulars, and the guys make everyone feel right at home and like family. The food is New Mexican, not to be confused with Mexican. Very light, flavorful & fresh. They use whole pinto beans, lean meat cuts, fresh produce, and their chile sauces are to die for. When I was a tyke I loved the Zuni pie, and house made sopapillas(Mexican pastry), as an adult I’m in love with the Tesuque Burrito, and wash it down with fabulous margarita, or two. I love the guys, and love the restaurant!

There is nothing more delicious, in all of Portland and maybe the world, than fries covered in green chilies and cheese! Holy moly! It’s so nice to have southwestern food in Oregon… I grew up eating the delicious food in Arizona and this is so similar. Plus, take-out ready in only 5 minutes? Can’t beat that!

I happen to be from New Mexico… trust me, this is authentic! Before today I had yet to find a «Mexican» restaurant that even comes close to the taste of «home». Today is the day! The salsa could be spicier but was tasty. The chips were chips and to me it’s all about the dip anyway. The chili con queso was yummy and made with real cheese, not cheese sauce or whiz. I had the chicken sour cream enchiladas with hot green sauce, AMAZING! My fiancé had the carne adovada enchiladas. The pork just fell apart! Oh, and to find a place here that serves sopapillas… well Adobe Rose does and they are the soft pillows of deliciousness they are meant to be, whether you fill with honey or use them to sop up the extra yummy chili on your plate. I cannot forget to mention the dessert of the southwest, Natillas. All I can say is order it and you will understand! We will be going back again… and again… and again!

We tried it because the line next door at Pizzicato was ridiculous that evening. Polite waiter, very casual environment, super clean place. The décor looks like they shopped at Goodwill and cleaned everything up; not a bad thing just think homey versus stylish… oh, and lots of coral… the color not the plant. This place has been here quite awhile so I thought it would be better than it was. The chips and salsa were decent but not homemade(hello, Costco). We had taco salads and they weren’t awful but I can make much better at home(and with a larger portion). We didn’t have drinks or even soda so can’t speak to that. The entire experience was just bland and disappointing.

This place is decent. Tried the salmon and halibut tacos. The chimi’s are not bad. Guac is okay. Salsa is average. Healthy and not generic. Beans and rice are usually fresh. Drinks are not bad.

We were there around 7pm for dinner. The place is small and very low on atmosphere. I will say the colors were good and matched the theme of the restaurant. So, cool colors and very clean. There are maybe about 10 tables, 1 server. The chips tasted like Fritos. The tesuque chicken burrito was good but it was too light on the sauce. The huevos rancheros was excellent and came with beans, green sauce and cheese. The red sauce on burrito was too salty. Too much salt in general, I think. Well, it was quick, cheap, and good. Check it out and have fun.

I lived down the street from Adobe Rose for 6 years, and never went there. I love Southwest/Mexican food, so I have no excuses for never entering other than one… I was totally stupid. Years after moving to another part of Portland, my husband and I were in Sellwood/Moreland looking for dinner, and I mentioned I’d never been there. He said«well then, let’s go». After that night, we were regulars. In fact, I moved away from Portland a year ago and just came back for a short visit… and Adobe Rose was on my list of «places I have to go». Here’s my order: Blue Margarita(awesome…but if you order more than two, call a cab), Tesuque Burrito(not at all a ‘traditional’ burrito, but if you want your average crappy red sauce and generic cheese-smothered burrito, go somewhere else). Every order comes with sopapilla and honey… mmmmm… Whether you’ve lived down the street for years, or have to make this a destination from another part of Portland(or, in my case, South Carolina), don’t be stupid like I was. Go here. Enjoy. And when you have a blue margarita(or two), think of me… sadly, now 3,000 miles away… Oh, and you’re welcome, jimbo a.( Unilocal elite ’09)…as I was the one who introduced him to this place ;)
