This place was so cute. I wanted to try a Portland staple and this was recommended.
The food we got was big and came out super fast.

I ordered the cosfilas and nopales which is short ribs with cactus and it was amazing. It taste just like my grandmas food.

My partner ordered the steak platter and it was really good too

This place was dingy, dirty, wiped the table myself, there is no service, just a guy to take your order, you will return to ask for condiments or sauce, won't be offered, food is bland and sub-par. There is a fair selection, price is good, but it's alighned with a fast food restaurant feel, slightly above quality. This place was recommended by a co-worker, and I'd never listen to him again. I see he has no class. It was hot, no AC, and appeared to be struggling in every way. I've had food carts better. I'm an honest critic. Sorry! If you like stringy over chewy beef and rubbery chicken. And Flys circling you, Enjoy.

This place is amazing. Im so happy theyve survived a drastically changing portland. Its a true to the bone, standard, family owned mexican reaturaunt. Order at the counter. The salsas hit.

the carnitas burrito is the only thing i get because it’s that good! i am never disappointed. its huge, filling, delicious and affordable. they are also very quick. the staff is friendly and the vibe is chill. the only thing i’d say is to get some more heating bc it was cold when i was in there this evening.

By far the best Mexican food we've had in a long time! Failed to take pictures because we were inhaling the deliciousness but trust me and eat here! They have a salsa bar too! The carnitas tacos are soooo good!!! Staff was welcoming and helpful too! The atmosphere was great too!

La Sirenita > La Bonita

Well, what happened was my friend and I wanted some Mexican food. We missed breakfast and worked through lunch. We were starving. We found two Mexican restaurants nearly right next to each other and began to read the reviews. It appeared that there were maybe fake negative reviews going on so we decided we would go to BOTH on the same day and compare for ourselves.

Both places you order & pay at the register. You retrieve your food once it is ready and bus your own table. This is something I have found in many places in both Portland and Seattle. Frankly, I think it it is a disservice to your customers.

The food — La Sirenita was clearly the better of the two Mexican restaurants.
Honestly I didn’t even finish my meal at the other one and would not go back again.

The staff at La Sirenita were better in all of the ways. The man working at La Sirenita knew we were not local and began to automatically sell his menu. Telling us the top sellers and what he likes.

He cared about our order.
He made a suggestion three times about our chimichanga and we took him up on adding the fajita veggies which was the best move ever — it elevated the entire meal. He was kind and nice.

They really have a closer relationship to their customers here. We sat and ate our meal as soooo many customers arrived for pick up orders. He knew almost everyone that walked in and had a little chat with them all

Thanks for the amazing food!! Will be back next time I am in the area.
