The Best Restaurants on Belmont Street in Portland, Oregon | Eater Portland
"Taquería los Puñales made a splash when it landed in the Belmont pool in 2020. On warm days, hoards of patrons fill the colorful outdoor patio to indulge in guisado-style tacos: smaller, doughier house-made tortillas topped with stewed meats like chicken tinga and lengua (tongue) in salsa verde. The tacos can either be ordered individually, as a “one-of-everything”-style sample platter in-house, or as a bowl topped with a choice of meat, plus add-ons like fried plantains, yucca, and pickled vegetables. The menu also boasts an array of fruity margaritas and Mexican lagers to match the street’s tendency to become a weekend bar-hopping paradise. Dine inside to enjoy its decked out dining room, featuring campy pop culture references and paintings by queer Mexican artists." - Katrina Yentch
