Here in Oregon, there’s a lot of competition when it comes to tacos. We take our #TacoTuesday very seriously here! So when we say we’ve found a place serving up the best tacos in Oregon, we mean it. In West Salem, Latinx-owned Xicha Brewing has made a name for itself as one of the Pacific Northwest’s premiere breweries. They also just so happen to make the best tacos in Oregon.
Hidden in a retail strip in West Salem, Oregon, you’ll find Xicha, a Latinx brewery and restaurant.

Known as the premier Latinx brewery in the PNW, Xicha’s brews are light and refreshing. You’ll find varieties such as a German-inspired Playa Pils, mango-infused Pale Especial, and the Catarina Guava Sour, a collaboration with Oregon favorite Deschutes Brewery.

Xicha takes tacos to the next level. Case in point: these tempura fried lobster tacos topped with fresh jicama, cabbage slaw, and queso fresco.

There are no sad fish tacos here; these tacos feature breaded shrimp, quinoa, pineapple guacamole, radish, and cilantro.

And just when you thought your meal couldn’t get any better, there’s dessert. There are just two options on the dessert menu: flan and churros. But they don’t need anything else, because both are absolutely spectacular! The churros are served with a Mexican chocolate dipping sauce, and it’s the stuff dreams are made of.
