Highly recommend this place!

Dec 2022 • couples

The beans were very good! Chips were very fresh and the salsa was definitely house made and fresh (yum)! House burrito was good as well as the taco plate (chicken, carnitas and asada). Definitely recommend! The playlist was amazing too.

I Can't Stop Thinking About It

Nov 2019 • none

Ordinarily, I wouldn't go to a place like Robo Taco--you have to order your food at a desk, carry a number on a stick to your seat, and then a server will find you. I prefer to sit down and be served. Anyhow, I ordered the huevos rancheros, but they didn't have huevos rancheros sauce. Jeesh! So I ordered the giant soft taco. It was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten! I can't stop thinking about it, and I can't wait to go back there and get another one. The place is small but nice and friendly.

Every time I leave happy

Dec 2018 • family

Portland has a LOT of taco joints, but Robotaco is the most consistently pleasing. I would pick their sauces over anyone’s — right balance of spice, salt and flavor — the mushroom tacos are outstanding, the nacho chips are yummy fried flour tortilla chips, the portions are huge, the beans are seriously the best. Plus Bob Ross on the TV (or today: Terror on Dinosaur Island!?! So fun)! I love this place.

Great food

Apr 2018 • business

Small, hole in the wall place to go in this neighborhood for a big plate of rice, beans, and a choice of tacos. Four of us ate and drank for 40.00. Good food at a very good price. Parking can be a challenge if you aren’t willing to pay but street parking is available. We will be back.

Great Little Taqueria

Dec 2017 • family

Robo Taco is everything you want in a hole-in-the-wall taco shop. The meats and sides are excellent and the value is solid. I ordered 3 tacos with chorizo, asada, and carnitas. The chorizo and carnitas were great, although the asada was a little chewy. The rice, beans, and salsa were also really impressive. This is an excellent little lunch spot!

Great Tacos

Mar 2017 • friends

Funky little with great tacos and open very late. Robo Taco serves up all the standard Tex Mex favourites made fresh with natural meats and tortillas that are handmade daily. A must do !

My Favorite Street Tacos in the City

Dec 2016 • family

Love this place. If you haven't tried it, its worth a trip. Simple street tacos (meat, onion & cilantro) and has a couple veggie options. Funky interior with TVs that often play classic movies or old Bob Ross episodes. I'v tried most of the taco places in Portland (an obsession of mine) and this is the place I return to often.

Amazing tacos

Dec 2016 • friends

First time I had tacos in Portland while visiting, worth every second. I was told the best tacos around are Robo Taco and they weren't lying. Pretty reasonable prices on tacos, burritos, and beers. Try el pastor, carnitas, and the pollo tacos, you won't be disappointed.

The best taco you will ever have

Sep 2016 • family

Upon landing at Portland airport we stopped for coffee.We asked what restaurants would he recommend.Without hesitation this local said Robo Taco.A funny name but as we discovered great food.The restaurant is a short walk across the sw Morrison bridge and a up and coming industrial hipster area.We ordered the tacos and a beer.Prices were moderate and well worth the price of the food. It is a little out of the way but well worth the detour from downtown and the traditional restaurants.You will love this place.

Great tacos

Jul 2016 • couples

Loved the asada and caritas tacos! Sauces are great as is the whole pinto's beans and rice. Order at the counter and food is brought. Fresh and tasty, fast and cheap! they offer beer and a few tables outside. Great for a quick bite when you don't want to spend a lot, it really hit the spot.

I can't believe I'm giving this four stars!

Jul 2016 • none

As a non-native, I felt like I might not be in a very safe area of town, and the restaurant was dark, crowded, and seemed dirty. Our order was not quite right and the food took forever. But---it was DELICIOUS. Best nachos I have ever had. Worth all the drawbacks to have such great food.

Just love this place!

May 2015 • family

Quite unremarkable from the outside but super-friendly inside and food to die for at super great value. Robo Taco serves up all the standard Tex Mex favourites made fresh with natural meats and tortillas that are handmade daily. A quirky range of self-service sodas and a vegan & vegetarian menu, which you'd expect in PDX. You can also have a bevvie in the form of a margarita or Mexican beer. We ate here three times in a four night stay. No-nonsense great grub!
