El Goloso PDX — Restaurant in Portland

I walk up to the counter and ask "what all comes on the carne asada burrito?" There response was "carne asada, onions, cilantro, pico, sour cream, rice, beans, cheese." I said ok let me NOT get pico, and let me add avocado slices, they agreed. about 10 minutes later I get my burrito and bring it back to class, this burrito was the most disgusting greasy not at all delicious burrito I have ever had, the burrito did not have Cilantro, Sour Cream, or Avocado Slices which I paid extra for, the burrito came only with the nasty grisly and chewy fatty 'carne asada' with rice, beans and oily cheese, 0 sour cream to speak of, 0 cilantro, 0 onions, and you guessed it 0 avocado slices, which I paid extra for. At the time I ordered this burrito there was 0 other customers ordering so to get this order this wrong shows how incompetent this businesses employees are, and how little they care about food quality. I will be refunding my money through my bank.

TLDR: Please Don't eat here unless you enjoy terrible food with missing ingredients...

We hired El Goloso PDX to cater our wedding, and it was absolutely amazing! EVERYONE could not stop talking about the food seriously, as we made our rounds to each table, every guest had something to say about how delicious it was. And they’re still talking about it even after the wedding which makes this bride very, very happy!

Their setup was beautiful, their team was professional and easy to work with, and the pricing was incredibly fair for the amount and quality of food you get. We’re originally from California and have pretty high expectations when it comes to flavor — El Goloso PDX exceeded them. We sampled several catering options, and this was the only one that truly wowed us.

We worked with Miguel throughout the process and he was fantastic — responsive, informative, and always happy to answer our many questions.

100% recommend them for any event — they helped make our big day unforgettable. Thank you so much, Miguel and the whole El...

This food cart is in the Piedmont FC pod. I got this recommendation from a chef. He said it was good. He’s right. Actually he said it’s the best Mexican food he’s had in Portland. As a person who is GF I really love Mexican food- there’s a lot of choices usually and that’s certainly true here. Only 2 menu items aren’t GF (tortas and burritos) everything else has corn tortillas. The guy working the register is really friendly. The hurache was delicious and there was plenty of food for $13. The people who were eating at the FC pod were super friendly. They had 4 football games going. Lots of spaces to eat - some are covered for the rain. Parking is a little challenging since it’s on Killingsworth and only 2 blocks off of MLK. Definitely worth the trip for the food....
