"Stumbled in with no expectations. Best stumble ever! I am not joking, THE most delicious, authentic tacos you’ll find in Oregon!!"

"Came here right after arriving back home from an overseas vacation and craving authentic Mexican food. It was incredible. Tucked away in the less-than-ideal area of Old Town, this is a little gem. It is a small, cozy family run taqueria spot. So far, it is the only taqueria I have found in PDX that has an actual big trompo method of cooking their al pastor (pork). We ordered some al pastor tacos, chorizo tacos, and birria plate (some quesatacos with consomé) and homemade horchata. Everything was so juicy and tender. The al pastor is perfectly marinated and you can only get that charbroiled taste from the trompo. All the tacos have double tortillas, street style to keep the fillings intact. The birria consomé was so rich and flavorful. The chorizo was perfectly spiced and not dry. The homemade horchata is probably the best and creamiest horchata we've had yet. And finally, to top it off their homemade roja and verde chili salsas perfectly complimented everything. This place is now our go-to taqueria for legit authentic trompo al pastor and quesabirria consomé! Will definitely be a returning regular patron!"

"The places is awesome! Great vibe, food and drinks. We had the alpastor tacos de trompo & Sopes, they were delicious. I grew up in a Mexican household and I can definitely say the food was definitely authentic."

"Upon entering the facility you can tell it's dark and unpopulated. The server told me to grab a menu off of the counter I ordered and spent almost 20 bucks on very little food. The tacos are skimpy and the corn tortillas are soggy. The rice tastes like cheesy butter rice-a-roni. I had to add flavor from the nursing home I work in to give it flavor. Needless to say I will not be returning. Sad too because in the area I work in I haven't found too many options for good food."

"Fabos Tacos is AMAZING! I stopped in as a Yelp Elite event and was treated to 3 free tacos & a paleta shot. The asada and pastor were so delicious. They provide some great sauces as well. Additionally, I ordered a choriqueso and it was so good! The corn tortillas were delicious. The service is unmatched! I happened to walk up 1 minute before open and as much as I dislike being "that person" they couldn't have been nicer about it. My first thought walking in was how incredible it smelled. It smells so clean in a great way and mixed with the food it was such a great experience all around!"
