Cintli Cantina
This restaurant in North Portland takes its cues from indigenous recipes from rural Mexico as well as the "small plates and finger foods" of "old-style Mexican cantinas." Chef and owner Javier Hurtado's menu features locally sourced ingredients, scratch-made corn tortillas, handmade tamales with seasonal fillings, and dishes like huitlacoche (corn truffles) and carne asada con chimichurri, along with a selection of aguas frescas, beer, and cocktails.
