Tehuana Oaxacan Cuisine — Restaurant in Portland

Very delicious tacos. My husband loves the al pastor and carne asada (about $12 for 4 tacos), I love the shrimp and veggie (about $7 for both), and my 5 year old loves the carne, as well. He would probably love the shrimp tacos, too, but they are spicy. The salsas are also very good - Rojo and Verde.

One of our friends got a huge Mexican pizza (not sure what it was called, but it came in something like a pizza box) there, once, which he enjoyed immensely, and it looked fantastic. Everything ordered by friends we have brought there was enjoyed by them.

This food cart is part of the Arborlook pod, behind the Bottles and Cans bottle shop, which has a huge selection of beers and wines. I believe they also carry non-alcoholic beers. They make the atmosphere wonderful. There is a fire pit table, where kids can roast smores (buy the kits for about $5 at the bottle shop window), for example. They think of all kinds of ways to make it comfortable for adults, kids, and dogs. Most of it is covered, and there is a sink to wash your hands in, which is a huge plus for me. And there has always been seating available when we have come here.

They also play movies, on certain evenings, in the nicer weather months.

Great food, service, and...

Really solid Mexican food! I tried the Tehuana bowl with chicken (omitted mushrooms) and it was tasty, loaded, and really fresh. I love that they actually add kale/greens AND additional veggies—getting solid veggies at a taco cart can be tough so I was pumped to see this.

The chicken was good—tender and not dry at all. I will definitely try some of the other proteins as well as the options were plentiful. Beans and rice were great too. I liked both the salsas; added some good heat but didn’t overpower the...
