I'm done with consulting Yelp for Mexican food in Portland.
FUCK YES!
I always like it when the portions are massive and this place delivered! The plate is bigger than my head. I get the mole all the time and it puts me into such a blissful coma that I can never say no to it. The salsa is pretty good as well. The chips are okay. I can't speak professionally on behalf of the margaritas, but I think they are alright. I'm not going to get wasted off of it, but they are still refreshing nonetheless.
Oh! And they give you mints with your bill.

Note: I would really give this place 2 stars, but since it's so close to my apartment it gets bumped a star.
I thought this place was pretty good. The portions were filling, the palak paneer was good, and the free tea is always cool. The naan was whatever. I ordered garlic naan and it tasted like regular naan with yellow spots on it. It was affordable as well. Lunch specials are rad. I will definitely go back and try vindaloo or something. Im not expecting some gourmet Indian food, I mean, it's a food cart.
I doubt if I ever give this place an update that the star rating will go up. Reason: NO MEAT.

I went to Cha Cha Cha THREE times now because I felt like I was missing something. I tired the mole... BLEH. I tried enchiladas... BLEH. I tried the burrito... BLEH.
Do you see a pattern? Granted, the burrito was of decent size, but I felt weird after I ate it. I don't like that the plates come with just rice. I NEED REFRIED BEANS. If Cha Cha Cha and I were friends on Myspace, Facebook, or Twitter, I would delete them.
Save your money and go to the carts downtown.

Alright, I get it. It's a hippie place. Peace, love and all that fun stuff. You love animals and vegetables. Your parents probably gave you a middle name like Moon Hawk or Flower Beam.
Everything here had guacamole. I hate guacamole. In fact, I can say I hate avocados all together. Maybe it stems from growing up with an avocado tree and having the said tree drop shit on me all the time. But that is a digression.
Don't get me wrong, the food was alright. I had some hummus pocket sandwich thing.Best part is the Hava Chips. Other than that, I thought it was too expensive for a bunch of grass and roots in between pita.

First, I'm one for supporting your local mom and pop bike store rather than an on-line supplier. It's a dying business, and with places like this it's no wonder.
They are almost always out of stock on items that you would assume to be common in a bike store. Tires for one, are essential for a bike and if you are looking for a SINGLE tire, Two-Wheeler Dealer can probably help you. Sets of tires were non existent. I ordered a set from them over three weeks ago and I have yet to hear from them.
Second issue, I went to replace a headset and was told I would have to leave my bike there for the almost four days. It takes 15 minutes to change a headset! If I had the tools I'd do it myself...
Finally, and this is more of a personal jab at Two-Wheeler Dealer, they have caved to the droves of fixed-gear popularity. They have a steady stock of track pedals, HUGE messenger bags (as we all know how important bike messengers are to Orange County business and infrastructure), and other shit carbon components. Not a single set of platform pedals? Really?

i like this place. eating here makes me feel like a big man. the fried chicken rules pretty hard. don't get the fried chicken sandwich unless your ass just got dumped. it has TWO pieces of fried chicken, bacon, ranch dressing, cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce on a french roll... god damn it.
i will confess that this place used to be better (i.e. biscuits, apple butter, and macaroni and cheese), but who gives a shit. the lemonade rips and comes in a manly-ass jar. to top it off, you can swipe as many tootsie pops as you want on your way out.

i don't even know where to begin. the most disheartening issue was the lack of real bacon; only the fake stuff, which tastes like shit. why offer chicken and turkey, but no bacon? WHY?! the food was bleh. i would think of a more clever description, but it doesn't deserve one.
the second issue is more of a personal distaste for the arts district of santa ana. i don't give a shit about your funky, over-priced bars and gentrified lofts. ride a metaphorical fixed-gear to hell.
on the plus side the coffee was pretty good.

stone rips! all the tour guides seemed to be having a great time. it made me want to drop out and move to escondido so i could drink beers and give brewery tours. after the tour, which was super fun and insightful, we were able to taste four of stone's staple beers: arrogant bastard, stone india pale ale, smoked porter, and stone pale ale.
my girlfriend and i hung around after the tour and talked with our tour guide and he gave us more free beer. i was really excited that they made a russian imperial stout. they also had special and vintage beers that are not released and available only at the brewery for tasting. i love stone.

My girlfriend took me here for my birthday. I was surprised that they still had a buffet going on around 6pm, so we went for the buffet. As stated before the chicken and lamb tikka masala were both pretty good. Not the best, but still tasty. The chicken curry was alright. The garlic naan was delicious. i tried this "super beer" called Old Monk 10,000, which turns out to be indian malt liquor. the sink in the bathroom seemed super fucking big too.
