Despite previous reviews and maintaining the old name, I don't think this is a Mexican-style restaurant anymore. I saw a performance here a few days ago (11/2023) and the only food options were ice-cold sandwiches. The bar was also not nearly as large or as stocked at the photos show. The sandwich was okay, but absolutely nothing special. Definitely recommend eating somewhere before coming to a show here.As a music venue it was alright, I guess. Space is small, and stage is low. No matter where you stand, you will be close to the action.

I came to a concert here and it was a great environment. Fun, relaxed, welcoming and rockin! I got a sandwich which was tasty. Their potato salad and chips are similar to great tasting northwest staples like Reesers and Tims. Felt safe and enjoyed the night.Dietary restrictions: Chef is attentive to your needs.Parking: Large parking lot with many spots. Van accessible disability spot is right in front of the door.Wheelchair accessibility: Everything is single level, no inclines or large bumps. Spacious bathroom stall. Counter height is good. Vibe check passed.

Music is the focus here. We suggest ordering food before the very loud music starts! Mexican menu with variety of meats and portions. Pork carnitas was too dry that evening, but overall good alternatives. To-go is a good option, unless you enjoy the local hard rock scene.

Amazing food, it's a bit pricey but very worth it. Street tacos are always a go.Plenty of drink selection, with reasonable pricing.Always great people coming through, staff is super chill and great to work with, there's always some great live music playing at the events.The stage is wonderful, great sound equipment, the lights and fog create great visuals for the artist performing, plenty of seating for those who aren't rocking up in front of the stage.Clean bathrooms ✅The owner Jeff and staff are always super helpful with events and all the specifics that go into throwing them. Mano Oculta is always a great vibe, and has a great future ahead of them. Stay tuned, Jeff is doing big things!Vegetarian options: Some great Vegetarian TacosParking: Decent amount of parking for the venue size, another parking lot nearby when the main one is full, as well as some good street parking nearby.

I don't drink, and a lot of time bars usually give me the ick, but the atmosphere was cool and welcoming. Came here for a show (shout out to Hematite) and the place was packed, but not in a "claustrophobic way." Everyone I met here was so friendly.The food was shockingly delicious. I was not expecting food that high quality and a menu that expansive from a smaller bar/pub. I had soy curl taquitos and chips + guac. Those taquitos were damn good. I'll definitely come back for more events.Vegetarian options: Pretty much everything on the menu could be made vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: They have options for meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans.

Fun for shows, but eat before you come. Foods good, but damn spendy. Great vibe.

This place has the best tacos! We had come here for the Unprocessed show and it was absolutely amazing. The food was good, the bartender was on top of it, the crowd was pumped. The concert was awesome. Definitely will be back for the next show or to just grab some tacos. Highly recommend.

My boyfriend and I dropped by here to catch a record release show for a friend's band. Easy to get to Uber and bus, good food, lots of seating and good sound.

Located in one of the most awkward spots in SE, Mano Oculta hosts a comfortable small to midsize bar atmosphere. Offerings of espresso, a full bar, a few taps and an impressive menu of options for herb and carnivore alike.I came in on Wasted Wednesday for $2 Tecate and sweet early 2000's pop punk and metal jams courtesy of Wasted Yuth. While signage outside was limited I was able to spot the place pretty easily once I knew where I was headed, and the music was a dead giveaway.I ordered a beer and a couple vegetarian tacos and drank in the vibe. Quickly I received two loaded soy curl and zucchini tacos; each of which sported their own delicious marinades while being simple in their own right. Simply delicious and affordable at just $8 for the pair.This spot has a wealth of potential and I hope it finds the success that it deserves. It will need to survive the challenge of the location but with a little luck and a summer along the bike path this spot should blossom into a wonderful modern vegan-friendly gem of SE portland.Vegetarian options: Huge vegan and vegetarian selection!Parking: They have a lot shared with the post office.Dietary restrictions: Mostly vegetarian but there's some meaty and vegan options on this menu as well.
