The Original Taco House No Longer Exists Anywhere in Portland - Eater Portland
"The final two locations of The Original Taco House in Portland closed unexpectedly over the New Year’s weekend. Established in 1960 by Gene Waddle and later managed by his grandsons, the restaurant was known for its melted cheese dishes and sombrero decor. Although not regarded as a great Mexican restaurant, it held an iconic status in Portland’s dining scene. The Vancouver location had closed in 2017 due to lack of business, and the final shutdown was attributed to the family's lack of will to continue operations." - Tim Forster
