  I had to stop by the Eagle Eye this evening and wanted to grab something quick for dinner before heading home.  I've walked past this place when they were open a couple of times because they're between the bar and where I park, so I thought I'd give them a try.
  
  As much as I enjoy all the fancy restaurants around Portland with complex flavor profiles and creatively-inclined chefs, this is the sort of place that really makes a city's personality.  It feels more like visiting someone's house in terms of atmosphere, with an old TV translating the shows into Spanish and the sounds of sizzling food from the kitchen just behind the counter.  I think the most expensive thing on the menu was around $15, although I've had comparable food that cost twice that amount.  It seems like they've accrued enough regulars that most people would probably just order at the counter rather than sitting down with a menu and, when people develop that level of rapport with their customers, you know they serve good comfort food.
  
  And good comfort food it was.  It actually reminds me of the Mexican place back home I've been eating at since I was a kid.  The burrito had a lovely blend of asada and melted cheese that creates a sort of filling warmth in the belly.  I think it was probably much better than any of the ideas I had floating around in my head of where to go for dinner before I saw it.  I'm thankful to have stumbled across it.

  First time in and got some street tacos to go.  The tortillas were amazing and the meat was perfectly cooked. The lady behind the counter was extremely nice and helpful. The bag of chips that came with our food was a bonus!  I'd leave a photo of my food, but devoured it too quickly.

  Great tacos on a budget.  And rad artwork.   Free chips and salsa.  Entrees can be subpar. Tacos is where it's at.

  Pretty good overall but nothing stand-out.
  
  The carne asada tacos and the salsa were good but it's not a fantastic taco place. Since it's close by, I'll still stop by occasionally but I would not necessarily go out of my way to eat here if it wasn't so close.
