Ended up here because it looked like a nice place to sit down. Little oasis on 82nd. Food was incredible.

Absolutely incredible food. Homemade, and ingredients sourced from their raised garden beds outside, this place has to be one of the best food carts in Portland. Wonderful ladies working there as well, and you can tell they are passionate about the food they make.

This is the best Honduran restaurant I’ve found in Portland. This food takes me back to the comfort food my mom would make us. Their clientele is loyal and I always recommend it to friends looking for a good meal or want to try Honduran food!

A hidden gem, Tucked away off 82nd. It's easy to miss if you blink while driving by. Amazing food with a beautiful patio to eat on.

Quality food. Covered seating is in a garden where much of the vegetables for the meals come from

Get the baleadas made with handmade flour tortillas. We got the “simple” ones which contain the best refried beans I have ever had and creamy cheese and sauce. Will come back just for the $5 baleadas!
