Editorial Review for Aqui Mexican Cafe – by Lily Fu

In Short
Wooden tables and chairs with sarape-style fabrics fill the spacious room with a red floor. An outdoor patio hosts casual diners for a cheap bite or cold beers on a warm day. The menu features salads, soft tacos and burritos, as well as a list of specialty items, including jalapeno mac and cheese and a chicken enchilada casserole--chicken and corn tortilla baked with corn, green chilies and cheese.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

My boyfriend and I are usually less than impressed with the slow and unaccomodating attitudes of the average Portland server...however the service at Aqui is better than good, it's outstanding. From the very first time we decided to try out their (FANTASTIC) margarita's we could tell that this wasn't your average Portland restaurant and we were thrilled!!! The vibe is warm and friendly...the kind of place I want to take my best girlfirends and sit in the back room with pitchers of Cadillac Margies or slip in on a quiet Friday night date with my boyfriend. The nachos are huge there isn't a bad thing on the menu!!! Lots of variety and non-meat options!

Pros: service, drinks, price

WE just got back from Aqui and really enjoyed ourselves. The guacamole was very good and only cost $5. The dinner was very good, the service was good as well. We sat in the little enclosed patio and it was very nice. Cost for two, with margaritas and appetizer and entrees was $37. Not bad. Go enjoy yourself at Aqui.
