Taco El Sol — Restaurant in Portland

This is a great place to come to for a late night food stop. Please support him and his business.

I had fallen short on money once, and instead of embarrassing me, he was understanding and helped me. I came back right away to pay him back, of course.

When I don't go there hungry it easily stretches to two meals (reheat just like pizza - 350 at 10 minutes provides a very close approximation to fresh!). The habenero salsa is bangin' and the refried beans are super flavorful -...
