Mi Mero Mole was a Mexican restaurant with two locations in Portland, Oregon, United States. [1]
The restaurant served Mexican cuisine such as burritos, guisados, [2] moles, quesadillas, tacos, and tortillas. The restaurant also served breakfast on weekdays, as of 2019. [3]
The original Mi Mero Mole opened on Division Street in southeast Portland's Richmond neighborhood in 2011. [4] Owner Nick Zukin opened a second location in the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood in 2014. The Division restaurant closed in 2017, [5] and the Old Town Chinatown restaurant closed on July 3, [6] 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. [7] [8] Zukin had estimated that business was reduced by as much as 80 percent during the pandemic. [9] The restaurant was operating via pickup and delivery, as of April 2020. [10]
The restaurant offered "all you can eat" tacos; the record for most eaten was 14, as of 2016. [11] Zukin received some media attention for his controversial social media interactions. [12]
Mi Mero Mole won the best guisados category in Michael Russell's 2018 list of The Oregonian's "8 best tacos within striking distance" of downtown Portland. [13] The restaurant was a favorite of the Unipiper, as of 2020. [14]
