Had the carnitas burrito and loved it. The Pollo bravo was delicious too. A little skimpy on the chicken but it is what it is these days. Very good food.

Staff was so friendly and attentive. Food was delicious, I got the chile relleno and chicken enchilada combo, add a little bit of the salsa that came with the chips and yum! For dessert they also had a chip with ice cream, whipped cream and cinnamon honey which was the perfect way to top off the meal.

Super fast service for seating, chips and salsa, water, drinks, food. I enjoyed a massive taco salad with shredded chicken and it was less than 10 (without gratuity). Very good value. Highly recommended.

Every local Omak person I know told me to get dinner here. And I'm so glad they did. The atmosphere was joyful fun and welcoming. Chips and homemade salsa were served quickly. Pedro the server kept the whole room well served and entertained. Laughter was had by everyone in the room. Now the food: the mole sauce my enchilada was bathed in was amazing. And The crema sauce on my other enchilada was delicious. Pedro brought out three jalapenos to accompany my dinner and they kicked just the right amount. EAT AT EL PORTAL.

Best Mexican food in Washington State. Authentic and fresh. They don’t skimp on anything. Staff is amazing. Safe and clean and COVID ready. Must stop for lunch if your passing through. We make this a special stop after a weekend in the hills camping before we return home towards the coast.
