Taco Express Fresh

I don’t review places, but it’s worth flagging that around the Reed college area this is a gem for tacos and burritos. I’m from Texas and have spent a lot of time in the Southwest and Cali. The food is good, a little greasy but really good. Great service and college kid prices. If you like Gigantic Brewery just across the street, all the more reason to head to Taco Express.

Gigante burrito with Asada every time. Dependably delicious. My favorite burrito in Portland! The tacos and breakfast burritos are great too.

It’s about time I left a review here. I’ve been going here for a few years now religiously, for lack of a better word. It’s the absolute best taco spot we have here in the Portland area, in my humble opinion. Not only do they cater to quality and authenticity, they are also very affordable. I have an inside joke with my family about it. We call this “old school prices”. Reminds me much of the tacos I eat when I visit SoCal. Also, the ladies who run this place are some of the kindest and you can really feel how passionate they are about feeding us delicious food. Please eat here!

I've only ever had the Burrito Supreme. At a great price of $7 (cash!), how can I say no!? The ladies are always friendly, never a long wait, and the taste reminds me of home (San Antonio). For a quick dinner idea, this has been our go-to a number times for my daughter and I.
