"I?ve ordered food from this place three times. Every time, I order street chicken tacos with no onions. (Street tacos usually come seasoned, with cilantro and onions) the first time, I received plain, unseasoned chicken only, in a corn tortilla. Thecilantro was not added even though I only requested to remove onions. The second time, the order was correct. The third time,tonight, they forgot half of our order, and the chicken was unseasoned again (but with cilantro this time). I called to complainafter getting a refund from GrubHub because why on EARTH would you NOT SEASON THE CHICKEN ? I was told over the phone that themanagers tell their cooks they aren?t allowed to season the meat. Safe to say I will never order food from here again. Also, wedid take a bite of the taco just to see if it was any good, and it wasn?t."

The Al Pastor tacos are super fire! The only knock I have is the prices or I'd go more often.

I couldn't finish the carne asada, everything went too salty and badly. I threw up immediately after eating. they don't waste their money here unless they want to get sick. I want a refund

Meat was old and dri not much flavor. I think the green sauce was more flavorful. The tacos are over priced for the money. Limes where old and hard not much juice. Thought I smelled cigarette not sure tho. Would not recommend.

?Burrito that?s over cooked?. Thought it was hard to accomplish that phrase, but they found a way to do it. Meat was very dry and chewy, the rice was dry and the only flavor came from the red sauce. Save your money for a different $12 burrito. Also wasthe only person standing there for 20 minutes waiting. View menu

Tried this place out because our normal Mexican restaurant was closed today was pleasantly surprised. The campechano burrito was very good except it had too much rice and beans for my liking. I didn't quite get enough meat but the flavor of the meat was prominent enough to make it work sorta. The Al pastor taco was very good and loaded with extra onion like requested. Not sure how the pricing worked but 1 burrito and 3 tacos and 1 sope was quite a bit more than expected. Overall we will definitely come here again.

I'm sorry but $36 for two chicken burritos, two street tacos and an order of rice and beans? If they had been packed with meat and/or flavorful, maybe. But the chicken burritos had very little chicken, mostly rice with some beans, a bit of cheese, onion and cilantro. They needed a ton of salsa to get them to resemble Mexican fare. The street tacos (carne asada) were small and just ok. The pinto beans and rice were just ok. I've had many meals from Mexican trucks and this was really not that great. In addition, prices weren't posted outside so I shouldn't have even ordered. If you go, I would definitely ask for the price prior to ordering. My bad. But my recommendation is to go elsewhere- the...

"Family owned great food, great prices My husband found this place and he was craving Puerto Rican food. We used to eat at this place in Santa Rosa, so he searched and found a recommended restaurant in Beaverton, Boriken! Happy we stopped by to check this place out. They are family owned and celebrating their 10th anniversary woo! I like the interior. It's bright and decorated with a tropical island feel reflecting the culture. The walls have photos of the family and history. I like places like this. Their menu is easy to navigate and not overwhelming for a first time diner. I ordered a plate with yellow rice and chicken, beans, and plantains. I was indecisive with sweet or fried plantains, so the waiter suggested I do both. My 6yr old ordered a small side of sweet plantains and a small side of cornmeal sticks. My husband had the small mofongo. I loved what I had. It was very filling too! Sweet plantains are SO good and the fried plantains are delicious as well. I loved that they weren't oily and had a good crisp to it. My daughter ended up wanting my fried plantain even though she really enjoyed the sweet version too. She likes this place. My husband devoured the mofongo. I may get that next time too. We tried their vinegar sauce on the table and it tastes pretty good, not spicy! Service is great. We enjoyed our food and plan to come back again. Parking is right out front designated for customers. Bathroom is for customers only. because they're celebrating their 10th anniversary, some of their dishes (like mine) are $2 off."
