What People Are Saying About La Bonita

In Short – Paintings by local artists and family portraits adorn the bright walls, and the menu is handwritten on a large chalkboard. Mid-morning options include huevos rancheros and chorizo. Tacos are choice--warm, corn tortillas overflowing with a number of tasty options, from carne asada to carnitas. Burritos are serious in size and flavor. Choose from three different sauces for the excellent enchiladas: roja (smoky and spicy), verde (with subtle tomatillo tang) or suiza (smooth and mild).

fab Mole!
by darnfinedog at Citysearch
Wow, great little spot hidden on the far end of Alberta. Fantastic mole, which is no small feat. Fast, cheap, fresh and delicious.
- Pros: tasty, fresh and cheap
- Cons: Got a "huh?" look when I asked if they had queso

Seriously....La Bonita is the best. Gather 'round.

Listen,
La Bonita makes the best burritos in Portland, OR. Their cuisine's superiority doesn't manifest in their portion size (which is large), nor does it matter with their prices (which are very affordable). La Bonita makes the best burritos in Portland because their kitchen does what any exceptional kitchen does. They prepare dishes from scratch, they cook with a home-style, and their quality shows up every single time.
If someone didn't enjoy their cuisine from La Bonita, I strongly suggest they either 1) Go back and try it again 2)Shut Up OR 3)Quit comparing magnificent affordable meals to an "Albertsons Enchilada Dinner."
Man, They're nice folks, too.
- Pros: Fast, Tasty, Cheap, Authentic
- Cons: No Draft Beer

Go for Brunch!
by nikitasafrita at Citysearch
Totally delicious and cheap brunch - huevos con chorizo is crazy delicious. Plus their Oaxaca cafe made with cinnamon and cane sugar is a delightful way to enjoy your morning coffee. And there is never a long line, unlike most other breakfast joints on Alberta. Tacos and burritos are great too.
