Los Portales
“The highlights are the al pastor taco with pineapple, and the saudero torta.”
“They have great tortas and wraps and other specialties like chilaquiles (my fave).”
“The suadero with avocado, rehydrated peppers and Mexican cheese between a seeded bun makes for a satisfactory sandwich.”

Craving for taco & soup & start yelping to find tacos around astoria since I'm in the neighborhood & foubd this place. Its a small store with lots of tables & chairs inside.
I got the crispy chorizo taco with guacamole & spicy beef stew soup. My boyfriend got his pork cemita. We got this huge drink called horchata. Food is delicious! I love the beef stew soup. It is a huge bowl of soup. I didn't even finish mine. I just take it to go.
This place is good when you wanna eat after a party on a weekend. They close late! For sure we'll be back to try more!
We ordered delivery including the regular nachos, the tuscan salad and the broccoli and chicken quesadilla. The nachos were very tasty and I would highly recommend them. The quesadilla was a bit lackluster with an overcooked shell and sloppily thrown together ingredients. The green and red dipping sauces are pretty good.
With impressive tacos, late hours and friendly service, Los Portales may inspire repeat visits to check out the lengthy menu. I had arabes and al pastor tacos. It falls short of the fifth star because of the cemita, which has good bread and avocado, but doesn't offer the flavor explosion that you might find in Jackson Heights.
Passed by on the Q104 and Portales seemed to have closed! :'( Or changed owners/name? Anyone have details?
Delicious tacos only $1.50! The steak, chorizo and Al pastor tacos are so rich in flavour. Wonderful! The burrito is nice too and taste healthy. The nachos are good but the one I've ordered has some stringy mozzarella which I could do without. Great portions, awesome deals here!
They deliver a mean taco.
I mean, physically deliver. And late.
And they taste pretty good, too. I recommend their steak tacos. And lengua[1]. And pork sausage[2].
If you're willing to go to their restaurant, they're generally open until 2am for your late night Mexican cravings.
[1] You know, beef tongue.
[2] I like sentence fragments.
My boyfriend and I have ordered from here on 2 occasions through Seamless, but haven't had the opportunity to actually check Los Portales out in person. Their menu offers some sort of authentic Mexican/Tex Mex food options along with more Americanized food items as well like salads, sandwiches and wraps. WRAPS. Not Mexican food, but still yummy if you want something burrito like sans rice.
Things that we have tried include their chicken enchiladas, their pollo adobado burrito, steak and carnitas tacos, their Spanish rice with brown beans and their chips with salsa.
Their tacos are generally on the smaller side, but they're super cheap at $1.50 (except for their spicy pork which is still very reasonable at $2.00) so you're getting what you pay for. They are yummy and I like that they're double wrapped with soft tortillas (I think they're flour based and not corn). These aren't Jackson Heights, Queens quality – but they'll hit the spot if you've got a hankering for cheap, good quality tacos.
Their pollo burrito is a nice size and also a steal at $6.50. This bad boy is stuffed with yummy and well seasoned chicken, white rice, beans (I opted for black beans!), lettuce, tomato, grated cheese, sour cream, onions, and cilantro. I asked for no lettuce, tomato or onions because I'm awesome like that. They followed my Seamless instructions to a tee and the delivery guys were friendly and most importantly – quick!
In all, I'm a fan of Los Portales for cheapo Mexican food whose flavors can still pack a punch, but not burn a hole in your wallet. 4 stars.
Oh. My. Goodness! My boyfriend ordered chicken and steak tacos to go, holy crap. Thee' best tacos I think I've ever had in my life. They were so good, we went back for more. Best part, only $1.50 each. We not only went back again for the second time, we went AGAIN for the third time! before heading back to Long Island. So so delicious and so fresh! They taste homemade. The green sauce, amaze balls! Super spicy but so delicious! I'm going to dream about these tacos tonight. Yes, yes I will. I'm sad it's so far from home. I had to come to help to review.
Best freakin tacos!
