Ok the food and vibe was amazing here!

100% gluten free

The staff was very friendly and helpful the answers. And food was tasty.

The only reason I am giving one star off is because it was hot and we were upstairs and there was a small AC unit but it was not enough for the space and it was uncomfortably hot whole we were there.

We had the guacamole as an appetizer and I can say this was some of the best, most authentic guac I’ve had from a restaurant. The chips were light and crispy and salsa had the right amount of bite. My surf mac and cheese was far beyond regular mac and cheese with the only similarity being pasta with a cheesy sauce. The flavor was smooth and similar to a red enchilada sauce. Salmon and shrimp were moist and flavorful with excellent sauces. We also had ceviche, which was on point for freshness and authenticity. I can’t imagine better.

One of the best Mexican food joints in Portland. All fresh and delicately constructed food. Amazing for business lunches or dinner

Ordered the carne asada to go. The flavors were great, but for $25 the portion size was quite sad. 3 small pieces of steak, and no chimichurri. Finished feeling hungry and a bit disappointed

Delicious! The unique fresh flavors are mouth watering I want to eat here everyday and will go back often. I had the mole dish and my husband had green enchiladas. I recommend both meals. His enchiladas were covered in what was almost a light coconut curry. The flavor was surprising and really good. Our server is brand new and has never waited tables. It will take a moment for her to figure things out. Her attitude is great and she is clearly a kind, good person. She will do well.

This was my first time here. I would say this osnone of the very few Mexican restaurants that serve good quality food and have a simple menu. Fajitas should be served with at least twice as many tortillas as they are very small and not enough for the size of the filling they accompany. The atmosphere is cozy and warm. The service could be a bit faster as we waited for over half an hour for the food to arrive. All in all, I would recommend this place for good Mexican food.

Sometimes I crave a spot that’s sweet and uplifting. Verde Cocina saved the day this Sunday. Their happy hour portions are generous and packed with flavor. Check out the cheese cake! I couldn’t resist taking a pic.
Thanks, Lupe, you rock!

So cute! Bigger than I thought. We sat upstairs but we saw a bar below and outside seating!!!

The drinks were great, our waiter was nice, fast, and let us eat in peace!

The atmosphere was nice, clean, and relaxing. The music was good but not too loud.

The food was so good! Vegan choices and normal! $74 total for 3 people 1 meal and 1 drink each.

Delicious and healthy, very reasonably priced! The wife and I tried this place out last night on a whim. We needed a date night. Verde Cocina definitely delivered.

The building is cute, and the small upstairs dining area has unique.. slightly eclectic lighting, but does a nice job of making an intimate space for a date night. Weirdly, there was no music of any kind to help complete the ambience, but that was ok.

The wait staff was courteous, full of smiles and attentive, but not OVERLY so (just the right amount to allow relaxed conversations , which is what we wanted).

We started off with some margaritas (they have a large selection of tequilas and a few mezcals to choose from). Those were pretty small, but tasty.

The food was delicious and full of fresh ingredients to give that depth of flavor. I had the gringas con mole (with pork) and the wife had the fajitas with carne asada. If there was one weak spot, I’d say the mole was a bit mild in intensity for my taste, but still rich and smooth. My wife’s carne asada, though, was SUPER intense in flavor. Definitely a strong contrast there.

For dessert, we spilt a coffee flan, which was DI-VINE.

Definitely a place we’ll be back to.
