Reviews for Market Cocina in Portland, OR
Can be on the spendy side depending on what you get, but absolutely delicious, everything fresh, made quickly, and you get to... pick the exact ingredients. What does it say about Portland that Whole Foods makes better burritos than most if not all of therestaurants here? EDIT 1/3/20: I'm afraid the food here has gone badly downhill after my initial positive review. Just ...awful. It's as if some new and completely incompetent chef had been put in charge. Where as the whole beans (black or pinto)used to be plump and savory, now you get a kind of tasteless sludge which might as well have come straight out of a can. It'slike a night and day difference with everything. That fresh quality I had raved about is just completely absent. And it isn'tjust the ingredients: the first two times I got a burrito here the same guy made it, and you could tell he cared about what hewas doing: If the beans were a little watery, he would take the time to drain some of the liquid off. And he knew the rightamount, the right balance, when it came to adding ingredients like cilantro or cabbage. The last time I got a burrito here--andI do mean the last time--the woman making it might as well have been the janitor, just piling everything on with seemingindifference to the end result. It's not like it would have mattered if she'd been more motivated, given how bad the food itselfhas become--but it didn't exactly help, either. It could have been great--it WAS great--but sad to say, I wouldn't recommendthis place to anyone now. Read more
This place doesn't exist anymore. It's whole foods now.
