Authentic Oaxacan tacos, burritos, tortas, and chilaquiles
"This charming taqueria a block south of Fernhill Park features Oaxacan dishes such as mole while also offering a full selection of tacos, tortas, and burritos. The smart play here is the carnitas, which are squished to an impossibly crispy, crunchy texture with a salty pop." - Nathan Williams
"This no-nonsense, affordable Oaxacan taqueria on the corner of Killingsworth and 42nd has been preparing nuanced, intricate mole since 2006. Crisp homemade tortillas elevate the burritos and tacos and the house-special chilaquiles draw fans from all over the city. Santo Domingo is open for breakfast daily." - Nathan Williams

"A casual taqueria consistently knocking street food staples out of the park is as essential to a Portland neighborhood as a good coffee shop. Concordia is lucky to have hosted Santo Domingo on the intersection of Killingsworth and 42nd for nearly two decades, and the tacos, burritos, and chilaquiles are as good as ever. Throw in some of Portland’s best moles, breakfast burritos, generously mixed margaritas, and a spacious patio, and you have a veritable Mexican stalwart on your hands." - Nathan Williams
"If the wait at neighboring spot Taco Pedaler is too much, walk the 30 seconds to try the tacos here, which uses fried pollack and a tartar-like sauce. All of Santo Domingo Taqueria’s tacos are going for less than $3 a pop — which, let’s be honest here — isn’t something many of Portland’s taquerias can say, especially now. The spot also pours cups of house-made horchata and fruit drinks, and has a sizable covered patio with large picnic tables." - Jenni Moore
