Time Out says

What is it? Oregon Live’s 2023 Restaurant of the Year, Ki’ikibáa is a delicious, low-key Yucatecan restaurant in Northeast Portland.

Why we love it: Ki’ikibáa balances fresh, bright flavors with mouthwatering comfort food—we love to order á la carte and try as many little bites as possible. Don’t miss the salbutes (deep-fried tortillas topped with your choice of chicken, beef or pork, plus avocado, lettuce and pickled onions), panuchos (tortillas stuffed with refried beans, served with similar toppings) and tamales.

Time Out tip: The section of NE 82nd Avenue around Ki’ikibáa isn’t the best walking street—it’s a multi-lane, fast-paced commuter street—but there are tons of other great restaurants and bars within a short drive, like Cameo Cafe (a classic diner-meets-Korean food haven) and Pho Oregon. Another fun spot in the area is the Sandy Jug, a strip club turned bar.

Address: 3244 NE 82nd Ave, Portland, Oregon 97220

Hours: Tue–Sat 11am–8pm, Sat 11am–8pm, Sun 11am–5pm

Expect to pay: Salbutes, panuchos and tamales are $4 each, so count on spending at least $10 and up to $20.
