“Their shrimp tacos are out of this world. They are using medium to large shrimps and plenty of them on each taco... all the other ingredients make a mouth watering tasty treat!! I get them to go and scoot down to the boat launch to enjoy the lake view while enjoying my food!“

“Agave Mexican Restaurant in Issaquah truly stands out for its exceptional dining experience. The customer service is prompt and attentive, making you feel welcomed from the moment you enter. The authenticity of the Mexican cuisine is impressive; each dish bursts with flavor and is clearly made with fresh ingredients. From traditional tacos to flavorful enchiladas, every bite reflects the rich culinary heritage of Mexico. The drinks are equally noteworthy, featuring a diverse selection of tequila and vibrant cocktails that perfectly complement the food. All of this comes at reasonable prices, making it an excellent value for such high-quality dining. Overall, I would highly recommend Agave for anyone craving authentic Mexican food in a friendly atmosphere. It's a gem in Issaquah that you won’t want to miss!“

“Friendly folks and great nachos!!!“

“I am a local in Fall City, well just outside. And this is our go to has been for years. The people are awesome, the food is fantastic, I always go for the Macho Burrito Chicken and it has hit the spot everything. As a family we have gotten all sorts of dishes from here over the years and never been dissapointed. I always judge a restaurant first off by its Salsa and they have a good one there.

For value, its very good value for money, and they have managed to make and keep it affordable through all circumstances we face face beyond our control.

The people who run the restaurant day in day out are truly fantastic.

Keep up the great work, you deserve the recognition“

“Seriously the BEST chicken quesadillas I've ever had! Everything else has been delicious, as well, and we've ordered just about everything on the menu.“

“Love the new menu items and the great service every time.“

“The food is exceptional. It is notably different than the Mexican fare typically found in restaurants here. I especially recommend that mole and guajillo sauces. We will be back!“

“Las Margaritas staff are attentive, helpful, and fun. The portions are plentiful and the food is excellent. The cocktails are high quality and made well. Their original Margarita on the rocks is my favorite. This was the Mexican restaurant that taught me, many years ago, that I do love real Mexican food, Americano tacos no longer have a place in my life.“

“Amazing food, wonderful service and a lovely atmosphere! Nice place for romantic dinner or bring a group. I'll be back!“

“Taco time is so much better than the other guys in my opinion!

I’m a picky vegetarian with GI issues and several sensitivities which limit my options for fast food (let alone just trying to find quality fast food). I almost never eat out — partly because I’m a picky eater, and partly because most places leave me feeling weighed down or give me stomach aches. But Taco Time has been such a pleasant surprise! The quality of the food is consistently fresh and flavorful, and I actually feel good after eating here.

Even without a mock meat option yet (which I hope they’ll add in the future along with other veggie options), there are still plenty of vegetarian-friendly choices like crisp bean burritos, veggie tacos, bowls, and salads with fresh salsa and guacamole, etc. The portions are decent for the quality and price, and you really taste the difference in the ingredients compared to typical fast food.

The staff here are always friendly and efficient — my order is ready quickly, and they get it right every time. For a quick-service healthy spot, Taco Time really stands out in terms of quality, freshness, and customer care. It’s one of the only fast food places I actually trust.

Thanks for giving me a nice option when I don't have the time or energy to cook!“

“Husband and I went in for the first time last week. Incredible customer service! She was so patient with us and offered great suggestions. The food was delicious- Best Mexican food in Issaquah and Sammamish. Will definitely be back. Thank you!“

“I have only been here two times as I moved to the area right before the government stole the freedom of Americans to move about freely... that being said, this visit - IN PERSON - was excellent! Matt, the bartender answered several questions and made a couple suggestions. I went with one of them (Carnitas and Scratch Margarita) and was pleasantly impressed with both! The crowd was fun, the staff was doing an excellent job (having been in the industry for 24 years myself) taking care of the business and caring for the clients. Thank you and I WILL be back again!“

““The Jamaica drink here was super refreshing and tasted homemade, not watered down like some places. It had the perfect balance of sweet and tart with a deep hibiscus flavor, especially ice cold on a hot day. The color looked amazing and it paired really well with the tacos. The service was amazing too — everyone was really friendly and fast. Definitely one of the best aguas frescas I’ve had from a food truck around Snoqualmie. I’d 100% get it again.”“

“I love this place! Reminds me of my home town, Champaign IL. Great Food & Great People!!!“

“Husband and I went in for the first time last week. Incredible customer service! She was so patient with us and offered great suggestions. The food was delicious- Best Mexican food in Issaquah and Sammamish. Will definitely be back. Thank you!“

“One of my favorite Taco Times in the area. I go here to eat and relax...and maybe hide from the people at home some times. I can neither confirm nor deny that last one. It's comfy, the food is always delicious and all the staff is always super nice...and I suspect I'm not the only one hiding out in there, as I see others reading and surfing on their phones �“

“I had lunch here with a friend a few months ago. Unfortunately they were short staffed, but the bartender hustled and gave us great service. The tacos were amazing. The chips and guacamole were well worth it as well!!! 4 out of 5 stars highly recommend!!!“

“Great food and a friendly crew. I eat here regularly, much better than fast food or chain restaurants.“

“While in the PNW from the East Coast, i needed my Taco Time fix in Silverdale. I forgot my wallet with cash & credit cards in it on the counter and I didn't catch her name, but one of the employees turned it in with everything in it. I am so grateful and so happy to know there are still good honest people out there!! May God bless her and the other employees there!!🥰“

“Great food, friendly employees, reasonable prices“

“It’s a great place to eat, but on my very first visit, I was served by a really sarcastic and arrogant lady. After submitting a complaint, they apologized and my next visit went smooth— I did not run into that individual on the second visit. So I guess it’s hit and miss as far as service goes, however the food has always been good, and I’ve eaten at Qdobas in different states, the food is consistently good quality 👍🏻“

“I’ve always loved Taco Bell. The food is consistently delicious, and the combo meals are a great deal. It’s one of my favorite go-to spots for a quick bite. That said, I do wish there was more awareness around how items are fried. Frying things like chicken nuggets and fries in the same oil can be a concern for people with allergies or dietary restrictions. It would be amazing if there were clearer information or separate fryers to help avoid cross-contamination. Still a big fan, just hoping for a bit more care in this area.“
