If you want a decent Mexican-American fix that’s reliable, this place delivers on consistency and decent portions. Got the burrito chipotle which was flavorful - good filling-to-tortilla ratio and the meat was on point, though nothing to write home about but satisfied the craving sufficiently.

Undisputedly the best taqueria in the PNW

​Don't even think about claiming you know the best Mexican restaurant until you've been here. This place feels more authentic than Mexico itself.
​The moment you walk in, the vibrant atmosphere and incredible smells transport you south of the border. But the real star is the food. Just look at these tacos—perfectly griddled tortillas holding a generous pile of savory, slow-cooked meat, topped with a fresh mix of cilantro and onion. The roasted jalapeno and onion on the side add a perfect smoky kick.
​And the salsa bar? It's a work of art. From mild to fire-hot, there’s a salsa for every palate, each one bursting with fresh, complex flavors. The deep red and green sauces are standouts. They don’t just serve a sauce; they serve a full spectrum of flavor.
​Every bite is a testament to genuine, heartfelt cooking. This isn't just a meal; it's an experience. If you’re serious about authentic Mexican food, you owe it to yourself to come here.

This is my second review of this legendary restaurant. The first one was two years ago. This is an amazing chain, and this is perhaps my favorite location. The new manager, Luis, is great and proactively caring for customers. It's really nice to see. Today I had the carnitas, and I think they were even better than ever, which is saying a lot because they are so consistent. You can compare to my previous review to see how nice the current plating and appearance has improved over an already stellar meal. Thank you!

This was a place we visited because we went to the professional soccer game. For every goal that the Sounders made we got one free taco. They were small street tacos but sooooo good! It is a nice fast food Mexican restaurant with a huge variety with nice booths. Very clean, considering the mob of people that showed up. The 4 of us received 16 free tacos (total), they cap each person to 4 tacos although the Sounders scored 5 goals. The other dishes looked very tasty! Restrooms were very clean too.

First time stopping in during a lunch rush so it was pretty packed, but service was never compromised. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall cleanliness of the inside and tables were well kept. Pricing was very fair for the quality of the food, which was amazing! Overall great experience, please check this place out if you’re in the area!

Good food 👍👍👍👍 for the price point too. I’d expect to pay 25$ but the chicken special was yummy for only 12$

This place is a hit or miss. There are days when their Carne Asada burritos and tacos are amazing and then other times you get stuck with all the fat chewy stuff that is not edible.
We keep going back because when it’s a hit, you can’t find anything better than this place for Carne Asada.
The food ordering and pick up process is incredibly inefficient. They need to get self ordering screens set up and have all the staff work on cooking and packing up food.
