“We went to El Cabrito on Friday night, totally on a whim. This little gem in Burien has delicious tacos (carnitas and asada)! The person who took our order and served us was so friendly and welcoming. The food was so good that we ended up ordering a second order of tacos (carnitas and chicken mole). I highly recommend you check out this great place. My only regret is that we didn't discover this place sooner so we could have had more than one meal before heading back to Canada!“
“The food is amazing, that should be enough. But the people are super kind as well!! Great spot, their birria is THE BESTDietary restrictions: I don’t do dairy and they’re always kind enough to make sure there’s no cheese / cream on my stuff.“
“Was a wonderful time. Had dinner here with my love and we just had such an amazing time. The service was wonderful and the Owner and workers were so accommodating and friendly we felt like we just went to a family members house for dinner!!! The atmosphere was so nice and romantic at the same time! Definitely will be coming back.“
“The food was delish. Had the sausage and bacon omelet. Very large portion. Wait staff very very attentive, this explains why the establishment was busy. Only complaint instead of the watermelon slice, I wanted the whole watermelon. Did not disappoint.“
“I Door Dashed this, so I can't comment directly on the service or atmosphere; however, I can't imagine a place with bad service or atmospheres putting out such delicious food as I enjoyed. I grew up in Arizona, I've been invited over for the real deal, and this ladies and gentlemen (and non ladies and gentlemen) is the real deal! This will be a repeat offender on my list :D“
“I had a fantastic experience at a Mexican restaurant recently. The vibrant decor set the perfect atmosphere, complemented by an extensive menu of authentic dishes. From flavorful tacos to savory enchiladas, each bite was a fiesta for the taste buds. The service was prompt and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience (there were mariachis who serenade each table and you can also dance). I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving delicious Mexican cuisine in a lively and welcoming setting.“
“Our meal was so good an there was so much I had to make my self stop eating. Great company an our server remembered us even though we are not frequent flyers but because we spent a bit in conversation. We promised we would come back an try a different item on the menu.“
“Grab your friends, grab your wife, grab yo kids, and don’t forget grandma and bring them to the most notoriously great spot in all of Burien. Jesus didn’t die on the cross just for you to miss the opportunity to eat the greatest tacos on this green earth.Everything is freshly made, even the drinks. Sides were spectacular. Deserts were killer too. The owner, Chris, is beyond friendly. He noticed I was having a hard time ordering so he assisted me and being the absolute G he is, he gave me complementary drinks as a welcome. He also has another top tier location in SeaTac called Birrieria La Santa. Bless the lord for spots like these. Do yourself a favor and stop by.“

“It was my first time going here based off a recommendation - and to make a larger order - and we were not disappointed. We ordered lunch for our staff team of 25. From the beginning, the gentleman helping me on the phone was very nice and tried every avenue to communicate to ensure my questions were being answered - and I had a lot.I ended up going inside to talk with them in person and see what their catering options were for our group. The same gentleman from the phone/texts walked me through the options, and even made calls to someone else to see if they could provide other options for us. They were very kind, patient, and accommodating. We order nearly 75 birria tacos, rice, and consome. Everything was fresh, incredibly delicious, and very hearty. (We were all surprised how big and full the tacos were.)Very happy with the customer service and overall food. We will be back for future large orders, and I will personally be back for more of those birria tacos! Incredible.“
“Every time we stop in…we make a point to sit in the lounge, knowing Teresa will be our server. She is amazing and has such a beautiful smile (even when wearing her mask, you can see it). We all know Azteca is the benchmark for consistently great Mexican food in the PNW for many years. Whether we are North, South, or East of Seattle we always have a place to get consistently great food and even better service. Muchos Gracias to Senor Ramos and his family and friends for decades of taking care of our family and friends.“
“The best Mexican food in King County, it's really hard to find authentic food but Casa Mixteca has a homey flavor. The Tlayudas are very delicious, the noodle soup, the mole, everything is very tasty and the price is fair.Vegetarian options: Nopales instead of meat.“
“Omg! Best antojitos I’ve had. I drive all the way from Tacoma for them as no other compare. My favorite is the tostiesquite. The price is super affordable for the quantity, I mean three people Could eat out of one. Good job guys, you got the recipes down.:)“
“The food is very delicious. The staff is very friendly good customer service and bilingual. It is inside a store and has seating area. I have tried the beef stew/ caldo de Res. Flautas de papa and the pollo. The tortillas are freshly made and love the green salsa.“
“This restaurant is such a gem. I think that hands down they have the best posole in town. But the reason we come back time and time again is because they make my two kiddos under 5 Feel loved and welcome. Everybody from the staff to the customers has a smile on their face whenever we come no matter what day or time and it feels as pleasant as a family restaurant should. Like I said the posole is the best in town, the kids menu is fantastic, and their rice and beans is ready in 5 minutes If I need a swing by because I didn't plan out dinner correctly! Theire enchiladas were fantastic- basically everything we've tried has been a major hit. Love this place. Will keep coming back until I'm a regular ?“

The place was not that full but they played tropical music. A very chilango work atmosphere. It was delicious and the barbecue was served with hand-made tortillas. It was very delicious. Everything else also has tickets. for sale for Hispanic artist visit dence a well-deserved gift“

“I met up with a couple of girlfriends for some lunch on a Saturday afternoon. At 1:00pm there was a short wait, but you can walk around neighborhood while you wait and they will text you when table is ready. They said there was a 20 minute wait, turned out to be only 10 minutes. Our Server was legit! She knew about every item on the menu in detail, and even explained why certain items went better in some dishes than others. For example shredded chicken vs chunks of chicken. Anyhow I had a hibiscus iced tea. Dang, it was so delicious, lightly sweetened with a small amount of agave syrup. My friend had the bowl, wow it looked so good!! She said it was amazing! I had a fish Taco that was so good. On a scale of 1-10 I give it a 10. They serve in-house made fresh corn tortillas!! The fish can be breaded with Panko or just grilled. I choose the Panko at my server’s suggestion. You can order 1-3 tacos for a set price and I guess add more if you want. She offered a small side of lime cilantro rice with black beans to accompany my Taco! I am happy that I did because it was the perfect amount of food.I absolutely loved every bite of everything I ordered and some of my friends food too! I can’t wait to go back and try more stuff that sounded so good. On that note my only complaint would be trying to decide what to eat, when every item on the menu sounded so good. It was truly difficult picking just one dish!! Did I mention our server was an absolute treat! I wish that I could recall her name. Every step of the way she was there when we needed her and super knowledgeable on everything on menu, super helpful, cheerful and our service was impeccable!!Did I mention that I cant wait to go back ASAP and eat my way through the menu?? Dang, just writing about it is making me hungry ?I better go eat something. Hope this review helps! I am very sincere in all that I wrote and I swear I am not being paid to write about this little gem of a Restaurant, with amazing food!“
