Luis’s Taqueria

Best alpastor taco this white boy has ever tasted. Skip the beans and rice, just order more tacos.

Luis’s lived up to the hype! Decided to try something different and the Chavindeca delivered. Their Al Pastor is THE best I’ve had, this coming from someone who lived in L.A. and frequented Tijuana. The tacos are big, but the Carne Asada was good, not great. The tortillas were delicious. Menudo and Horchata were also satisfying.
A decent line of mainly Mexicans confirmed the authenticity here. Service is pleasant and somewhat efficient.

Best place in the world! Best chimichanga sauce is the world! Even if I eat a burrito I get the sauce! This place is the best place to go to and a place I have to go atkesst once a month or even more!
Good service and nice people and great food

Worth the visit. Lots of veggies, great house made salsas and drinks, good all the way around.

Homemade tortillas, delicious meats and sauces. Wish they had one in Tigard. Totally authentic and addictive!

Best tacos and chile relleno I’ve had in a long time. There is a serious lack of great Mexican food in Portland. Luckily we decided to try this place out when we came out to Woodburn for some outlet shopping.
My mom and I were both very impressed with the cleanliness of the restaurant, the soft, hand-​made tortillas, the tender meats, and the incredibly flavorful sauces.
The tacos here alone are worth the trip to Woodburn from Portland.

Loved the tacos! Salsa was spot on. Service was quick and the value was exceptional. I recommend the carnitas, pollo, and al pastor tacos. Al pastor was my favorite!

Classic, traditional Mexican door in the heart of «Little Mexico» itself. You cannot go wrong ordering any items from this menu as they are all fresh, full of flavor and represent a culture which is known for it’s great cuisine.

Had the 2 taco plate, carne Asada with rice and beans. It was delicious and there salsa verde and green and red salsa were delicious as well adding the perfect accent to the food. Later I came back and ordered a carne Asada burrito, it was not as good as the taco plate. I also got some Cherros that were so amazing, they were warm and creamy on the inside.
Anyways this place is pretty damn good.

este lugar tiene muy buena comida, las 5 veces que he ido siempre he comido cosas muy deliciosas…

aaa y muy buen servicio x supuesto…

We are visiting from Cali and we were craving some authentic Mexican food. We really liked the food and their friendly customer service! Their tacos are made fresh with hand-​made tortillas, that was a really nice treat.
On a side note, they close at 8:30, a couple got here exactly at 8:30 and they had just locked the door. The lady knocked and tried to open the door, when they came to open she angrily showed them the phone saying it should still be open and barged in. I thought they handled it really well. They were not rude at all and just let them come in and served them. I really hope the lady at least thanked them…

Man I really loved my enchiladas. When my friends said that Woodburn had a lot of good Mexican food, I was like… yeah I guess that makes sense since there are a lot of migrant workers there. I had NO idea how downtown Woodburn was essentially dominated with Mexican people. It brought me back to when I lived in Texas.
Luis’ was pretty damn good. I haven’t had Mexican food so tasty in a long time. I don’t particularly even love re-​fried beans, just not a fan of that sandy mushy texture in my food not real reason other than that. Their re-​fried beans however were pretty damn awesome, I gobbled my 3 enchiladas, rice and all of my beans. If I had some bread I probably would have wiped my plate clean. I’ll for sure go back again.

Cheap, affordable, and good food. I’ve had the tacos and tortas here and they were bomb with carnitas as my protein. Their salsa wasn’t too liquidy and had lots of flavor and their hot sauces were good as well! The ladies that worked there were also very nice and friendly too. Oh yeah and Obama are here!

Good prices, good serving sizes and decent prices. Pretty clean and the food is sooooo good. We came with a group of 14 and the food was quick, hot and delicious. If I’m ever in Oregon again in this area, I will definitely be back here for seconds

Excellent food! Ceilings are decorated with piñatas. Casual atmosphere. I’d go for the daily special.

For all who are wanting a true authentic mexican Resturant this is the one .
My husband and I had torta especial and I had
Ceviche tostadas.
The Ceviche was the best I had in a long time, great flavor and very generous with the large pieces of shrimp.
The beans were creamy and the rice was super moist and fluffy like bread.
The salsa was like no other I’ve ever had, it had a lime flavor .
The bathrooms were clean and even smelled clean.
A little side note, if Barack Obama ate here in which he did no wonder, it’s amazing food .
Wish I could take this resturant back with me to Cali.

Coming from Hawaii, I am definitely not an expert at Mexican food. Almost anything taste good to me. But being in Oregon for a year, I’m realizing that some are better and some are muchhh better than others. I was skeptical about writing a review about this place since it’s always crowded and I didn’t want more people to crowd my lunch spot but I’ll do it for you.
IDk if this is racist but… I like to eat at places of different ethnicities where people of that ethnicity are eating at. This is one of those places. This place is always crowded although there are maybe 3 or 4 other Mexican restaurants on the same block. Go to this one, you’ll know you’re in the right place when you see the colorful pinatas.
If your at Woodburn outlets, it’s a short trek to eat a great food place rather than settle for something at Woodburn ouutlets.
I always order the burrito. Put whatever meat you want it in and it’s $ 4.50. Yes, $ 4.50.
It’s a solid sized burrito and again, $ 4.50. In Hawaii, we get 10 times crappier burrito for 3 times the price.
A couple times I strayed away from the burrito and got some of the other dishes, that was my mistake and I did not enjoy it as much as the burrito. I got the Chimichanga, and the Chavindeca but it didn’t compare to the burrito. I think I said burrito like 10 times in this review but burrito burrito burrito. Have a great day.

As many others have said, this place is BUSY. We waited probably 10 minutes in line and then another 30 minutes for our food. But it was very good and reasonably priced. We got ours to go because the dining room was full. Next time I would like to come and sit down and get a platter/​meal rather than just a burrito.
What I liked about the burrito was it has cabbage instead of lettuce in it. It gave it a different taste than most places and it was good. I liked it and would have never thought to use cabbage.
Service was friendly, the place was clean. Only downside was parking is a mess and the place was packed so there was a long wait.

This is the taqueria with most reviews in Woodburn, so we decided to try it, it’s good but not amazing, prices are a little to high on some things and the waiting is long, to order and to get your food. But we’ll try different things if we go again another time, this time we only had tacos, hand made tortillas, that’s a plus, aguas frescas of different flavors, enough seating area. You order at the counter but somebody takes your food to the table.
Aparently this place is where Obama went to eat on his last visit to Portland, they have the pictures on the wall and we ask the cashier what he order to eat and she said carne azada.
The place is big and it’s clean, we like the piñatas for decoration.

My friends and I stopped in here looking for some delicious authentic Mexican food after seeing all the great reviews on Unilocal.
i was surprised to see that it was a counter-​service type restaurant where you order and the front and they bring the food to your table. This was fine, but man — that line gets LONG and moves very slowly.
I had two crisp chicken tacos, rice & beans, and chips & salsa. Overall, I found the food to be average. The tacos were a bit dry (and the chicken bland), but the rice and beans were great and the salsa that came with the chips was quite good.
Prices are decent, but keep in mind you have to buy sides separately for a lot of the options on the menu (ex: I had to buy rice and beans to go with my tacos). There is lots of seating, but the ambiance leaves something to be desired. Cleanliness was okay overall.
I would eat here again, but I would not go out of my way to do so (like we did on this past visit).

To be honest, I thought I wrote my review years ago but shockingly that isn’t the case. One of my best friend’s introduced me to this place back in 2007 or 2008. There are only a couple of reasons to visit Woodburn for me and this is one of them. This and Tienda Cruz are my favorite Taqueria’s in this state hands down.
The menu looks somewhat intimidating with the huge variety of options. Tacos and burritos are always a safe bet. Their tortillas are home made and bigger than what other taquerias offer. Folding the goodness before eating is recommended for best handle care. The fillings are pretty generous with the shredded lettuce, meat of choice, onion, and lime wedge with sliced radishes on the side.
The chicken is well seasoned and marinated, no worries about dried meat here. Jalapeño’s can be added to the burrito upon request and they add a nice crunch to the meal. The red and green sauces are a great topping which are provided once the food is delivered. They provide just enough heat and added zing with each bite. Burrito’s are huge and only $ 4.25 — I still get slightly disgusted when some places charge $ 7 for a burrito these days…
Fresh horchata, coke in a bottle, and other delicious drinks are available. The soup is not too greasy and has a nice spicy finish. The carne asada plate is a great choice for those who want a little of everything. I sampled the steak a couple of days ago and there wasn’t a need for a knife. My friends asked if I enjoyed and all I could do was give an enthusiastic nod. So the next time you visit Woodburn — check this place out. I know there are other places to go eat, but my friends and I agree, this spot is always a must!
