About Taco Bell
Taco Bell is a haven for Mexican delicacies such as tacos, quesadillas, burritos, nachos, and other specialty items. Owned by Yum! Brands, Inc. Taco Bell is one of the fastest growing American chains of fast food restaurants. The restaurant operates from 7,072 different locations which are mostly run by independent franchisees and licensees.
The background story of Taco Bell is interesting and inspiring for budding entrepreneurs. The fast-food brand is the brainchild of Glen Bell, who started his first food venture as a hot dog seller in San Bernardino, California. The year was 1948. After witnessing long queues outside a Mexican restaurant called Mitla Café across the street, Bell saw the opportunity and demand for hard-shelled Tacos. He reverse-engineered the recipe and later started selling Tacos and called the venture Taco-Tia.
Later, the name changed from Taco-Tia to El Taco. Eventually, Glen Bell sold the company to his partner and opened the first Taco Bell in Downey in 1962. By 1964, the restaurant also got its first franchise in Torrance. The 100th Taco Bell restaurant was opened by 1965. PepsiCo acquired Taco Bell from Glen Bell in 1978 and the restaurant brand is currently a subsidiary of Yum! Brands which looks after the restaurant business of PepsiCo.

Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

This place is pretty dang good. Reminds me of places by where I grew up. Small, handwritten menu, soccer on tv and a jukebox. I ordered a bean rice and cheese burrito and a chicken taco, the burrito was huge and was real good for something so simple. The taco though, that's why I'll come back if I'm ever near here. Handmade tortillas. Really well flavored meat, the salsas taste fresh and there's a good selection, and this place is CHEAP. Everything I got cost me 7 bucks without tip. Not bad.
(4)Dan F.
Agree with all positive reviews, delicious, authentic, ultra fresh and lots of flavor. Small authentic cozy taco joint feel. Will definitely be back!
(5)Jim H.
I had tacos al pastor and they were fabulous. I will be returning to sample other menu items in the near future. I'm writing this with hesitation - tempted to keep the place a secret...
(5)Robert B.
Tacos pastor had best flavor of any place around and the home made tortillas made it a great meal. I would have taken a picture but it smelled so good it was gone before I got my phone out. Not much parking but plenty of room inside and right by the 'Max' stop.
(5)Alyssa R.
This place is amazing! Seriously the best Mexican food I've had north of southern Arizona. Their Rice and Beans are to die for. I'm wishing I lived closer cause I'm pretty sure I'd come every day for lunch if I could. Took my parents and they are now planning to bring the rest of the family. The menu is in Spanish but it's really easy to figure out what you want. Plus it was really cheap. We fed 4 people to the brim with drinks and it was only 25$. We were just there yesterday and I'm pretty sure were going back today.
(5)Mike K.
This place is awesome, can't get enough of the taco al carbon's, the best taco I've ever had, no joke.
(5)Karen P.
I'm of the belief that little to no good Mexican food exists north of Santa Barbara. This is the exception. Not a huge fan of the chicken, but I do like the carne asada tacos and they'll even make me vegetarian tacos when I don't feel like eating meat. Their horchata isn't overly sweet--just cinnamony enough. Their ceviche is mmmmmmmm! I love the family that owns it...so friendly and kind.
(4)Brian H.
Best tacos in the Portland Metro area. Hands down. Just like eating at a cart in Juarez. The only place I can go to in the area to remind me of home.
(5)Daniel T.
I just wanted to sit down, looking cool while trying new dish at this new place. Ended up eating like a pig cuz the food was sooooo freak'n good!!!!! Be warned, you might replace one of your favorite restaurants for this one!
(5)Nik N.
I'm always going around town looking for the best tacos and I found this one hiding by the 7/11 and this goes on my list of best tacos in town. It's rare to find tender asada tacos and they might be the only ones in town that have fluffy corn tortillas. I recommend this place if you are in the area
(5)Seth D.
Great food. Ordered some tacos and rojas menudo, much better than anything I've ever had in Oregon. You have to be able to handle the sketchy neighborhood (tweakers everywhere and one came in to shoot up in the bathroom while we were there) but if you can the food is definitely worth it.
(5)Laylah S.
I am so glad I discovered this gem! The food is delicious. The torta is, hands down, the best I have had. The outside of Taco Salsa can be deceiving....but the food will blow you away.
(5)Bogdan N.
A bit off the beaten path, but then again - if you aren't willing to make an effort, everything tends to seem not easily accessible and off the beaten path. If you, however, do make it all the way here, you'd find pretty darn awesome tacos and burritos (can't vouch for anything else on the menu due to my lack of experience, but judging by those two choices, the rest should be of an equally thumbs-up kind too). The place is clean despite seemingly underpromising exterior, self-serve taco toppings bar is one of the better ones I've seen and if that is not encouraging enough, most (more like 100%) of the clientele apart from you on any given day here would be of Mexican descent and that is usually a pretty good indicator of quality in my [salsa-stained] book. Working class neighborhoods and good food are rarely mutually exclusive and this place exemplifies such mixture like very few others.
(5)Michelle H.
I love this place! It's a small family restaurant - wonderful people and delicious "homemade" food! I know so many people who cry about the Portland area not having any "real" Mexican food - well hello, it's in Rockwood - and this is the place to get it! You can order to-go as well, and there is a separate "toppings bar" so you can put whatever you want on your tacos (they are prepared just as the meat on the tortilla). If you want that delicious pickled carrot & onion topping, you can find it here! (...and HORCHATA!) Yum!
(5)fon z.
can't believe i worked 10 blocks away from this cute little tucked away shack for years and never noticed it! it looked promising before i even ordered. all the tables were packed with Mexican workers and families on lunch break. the fixin' bar was loaded with fresh veggies, pickles, and sauces. they had chivo on the menu on a weekday! i got the chivo, cabeza, and lengua tocos. tortilla was fluffy w/ a slight crisp on the outside, fresh off the pan. veggies crunched, salsa gave a kick, and juice oozed out of succulent chunks of meat when i bit into it. and all this at $1.50-1.75 per taco!
(5)Chris H.
The least assuming Mexican restaurant, no banners or specials, but walk right in and find that you are the only non-hispanic there. The menu is in Spanish and includes goat, shrimp, and tilapia. In all the Mexican restaurants I have eaten, this is the very best. Family run with the best homemade tortillas, rice and beans I have ever had. Then the entrees were the best too. The daughter who runs the counter will translate the menu so it is no problem to adventure here. Folks you have not had authentic Mexican until you go here. Worth the 10 mile drive from Portland. Closed Wednesdays.
(5)mb h.
This unassuming spot makes outstanding, super fresh, lovingly prepared Mexican food. Soft yummy homemade tortillas, spicy garlic & green chile sauces- wow! Camarones de diablo was crazy good, tender, perfectly cooked shrimp & flavorfull sauce. Our hostess was really kind & welcoming even though we were the only gringos in the place. look for it by that bizarre spiky orange & pink sculpture by the Max stop in Gresham!
(5)Carl R.
Truly one of the best Mexican joints in the Portland area - tacos are perfectly seasoned and well-marinated. Al pastor, carne asada, and pollo were all awesome. Tried the sopes and tostadas, both excellent. All prices are reasonable, will be back for the burritos and other things. Salsas were awesome and had the right amount of heat. Kind of a small, dingy place, but don't let that deter you!
(5)Javier L.
Best Tacos north of Los Angeles! Haven't had tacos this good since I moved from LA back in September of 2014. Seattle needs to hurry up with tacos like this ! Homemade tortillas are just right !!
