The Best Taco Place in North Portland!

By David Columbus, September 11, 2020

Controversial title I know…. But believe me – I have been going to this place since the very beginning!

Finding a good go to taco place in Portland is almost like finding a needle in a haystack. There are many criteria that come to my mind when finding that spot….Is it it affordable to get pretty often?

Is it open late at night for those late night cravings? 

Is the meat always dry or is it moist most of the time? 

How far do I have to drive to satisfy my cravings? 

Is it locally owned? 

And most importantly, do they have horchata?  

Javier’s Tacos has it all. With over 1,000 reviews on Google, Javier’s Tacos definitely does not disappoint. The portions are huge so I’m always leaving happy but in a food coma…. Their meat is tender and moist, and I never have to wait too long for my food even though it is a pretty popular place. The best part is that they have the nicest and sweetest staff! I typically get the combination plates because you can get a bang for your buck for a variety of food and a horchata of course for that extra refreshing touch! The next time you’re in North Portland, stop on by at this place and it’ll quickly become your new go to spot for all your friends and family!

He/Him

Ok, here’s my snapshot. I moved to Portland in October of 1998, moved for love. I’ve been a licensed real estate broker in Oregon since 2000 and would describe myself as a general practitioner helping people navigate residential, investment, and owner-user commercial markets as well as doing some residential tenant representation. My work experience has ranged from swinging a hammer to brokering Eurodollar Futures. Me and my husband and two cats live in the Overlook/Arbor Lodge neighborhood, together we have built a 20-door rental portfolio and even run a small Airbnb business. I am originally from Traverse City, MI (NW lower MI), and graduated from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, MI. My quarter-life crisis was spent crewing/hitchhiking on sailing yachts around the Caribbean, British Isles, and Mediterranean Sea for three years. My mid-life crisis was spent with my partner sailing from Portland, OR down to Mexico and hanging out for a year. I'm good with crises. I work with buyers, sellers, and tenants who are all looking to thread the housing needle.
