Pepper Box Cafe

What makes this place so great is they don't try to pretend to be something they're not. This restaurant is far from the Portland norm. Don't come here expecting super healthy food, or a great place to eat salads. This food is deliciously greasy, spicy, flavor packed, and will leave your stomach full on a low budget. I ordered delivery from Postmates, so i can only comment on the food itself, not the vibe or service. Their breakfast tacos remind me of some places back in Austin, with the combination of Southwest flavors. I also ordered their green Chile burger. It was packed with flavor, and the meat was cooked perfectly with a nice pink center. Their tortilla sandwiches were also amazing, they use a special kind of tortilla, not your typical run of the mill restaurant style flour tortilla. I even tried their pancakes, surprisingly some of the best I've had since my own mothers homemade pancakes. This place is a winner, I will be coming back.

Absolutely delicious comfort food made from scratch. The Migas and sauces are amazingly delicious. Staff is very friendly.Food: 5/5

Glad to see pepperbox survived the pandemic and is still putting out absolutely incredible food. Do yourself a favor and give this place a visit. Im a Texan and have had my share of amazing Mexican food. Pepperbox cheese enchiladas with the red chilli are the best enchiladas I've ever had.Food: 5/5

Very potato heavy menu, and the chorizo options definitely carry more flavor than bacon of the same. All delicious! Amazing service and although it seemed busy we got a table almost immediately. Only paid about 25 bucks for a full breakfast for 2, excellent deal chef's kiss.

I went to Pepper Box Cafe for the first time today. We ordered takeout as we have to right now. I had The Standard. Two eggs, and potatoes with a side tortilla. I added the homemade chorizo. It was good. Plenty of food. It was a nice find.

I ordered 2 Farmer's Tacos and they were HUGE! AND so delicious! I couldn't finish and I have a big appetite. So yummy and affordable and very friendly service! Features: Masks, hand sanitizer

Great spot for a quick and cheap breakfast. I got the original taco with red sauce and the farmers breakfast taco. The red sauce has a good amount of heat to it, it was plenty filling without any meat but I think I would get bacon or carne next time for better textural contrast. The farmers breakfast was great too, lots of fresh veggies and cheese. For an average appetite 2 tacos were too much, I only finished about 2/3 of my food. You order at a counter and someone brings your food, it came out within about 5 minutes. We got there right after opening but I could imagine the limited tables filling up quickly on a busy weekend morning so plan accordingly. But you could easily spend less than $5 for a very filling and flavorful breakfast here so I would recommend it to anyone.

Crazy good flavor, the sauces are drinkable! The house chorizo is a must and suggest getting both sauces, "Christmas". Thanks to the staff during Covid, super helpful and kind!

This place is literally the greatest place ever. Tastes like home, homemade tortillas, The burritos are NM size NOT Portland portions and for a reasonable price $. Go get a breakfast taco from here everyday!! The pastrami and bacon Christmas is the way to go! Tacos $3.50, burritos $6.50, and stuffed sopapillas

Friendly service, and huge portions! I had the papas with both salsas, and added bacon and Carne. It was a challenge for me to finish it, and I am not a small man! I enjoyed this meal on their quaint outdoor seating. Felt like I was served a meal from a Tia. Highly recommend!Dine in: NoOutdoor seating: YesTakeout: Yes
