"The Hernandez family opened this Mexico City inspired restaurant several years ago after running a food truck in Portland. Here they serve favorites from their home town like huaraches, tlacoyo, and the Alambre, a platter of grilled Mexican sausage, carne asada, bell peppers, onions, and ham topped with melted cheese and served with warm corn tortillas. The family imported a special tortilla maker to churn out their machetes — a 10 inch long quesadilla filled with things like mushrooms, cheese, huitlacoche, squash blossoms, and grilled or stewed meats. Following the trends of Mexico City, they recently added birria tacos and birria ramen to their menu." - Rachel Pinsky
