Crema's Take
“Papi's Pockets is a taco truck with a 2.9-star rating where experiences swing wildly—some people genuinely enjoy well-seasoned asada and friendly service, but just as many report cold, oily food, missing condiments, glacial 45-minute waits, and staff with a poor attitude. The location near Corral Club on Portland Road has appeal for a group picnic setup, but the inconsistency and recurring complaints about food quality and care suggest better taco options exist a short walk away. Go only if you're already in that specific lot with low expectations, not as a destination.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Light food on the menu. Drive-thru.

Snagged some dinner here while they were parked next to the corral club on portland road. The set up there is awesome with the food truck options and picnic tables set up. They were busy but came up with my order in a decent timeframe. I ordered an asada oregon burrito and asada…
