13 Best Mexican Restaurants in Issaquah

“El Sabor Del Tio is a hidden Gem. Everytime I want Mexican food, I go to them first. Their food is noticeably authentic and fresh. My dad and I have been going to them for the last 2 or 3 years now, and still can’t find a better place when in other cities. They have the absolute best breakfast chorizo burrito I’ve ever had so I recommend that if you’re feeling breakfast, but anything you order will be amazing. They are the sweetest family, and very hard working people.“

“Great food and drinks.attentive waitstaff. Amazing 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.“

“Walked in and was skeptical about the authenticity because of the menu display, but the food is as authentic as you can get. Great food and variety of meats including tripa and lengua. Must try if you’re in the area looking for great Mexican restaurant.“

“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!“

“Eddy is amazing! Every time i’ve been there he’s always so polite and fast with service. You can’t go wrong with anything you order, my personal favorite is the chipotle burrito. On top of that everything is affordable and reasonably priced. I would recommend here to anyone!“

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

“El 42 Cantina absolutely delivered!

Mike went above and beyond with his service. I asked about hot tea, and he took the extra step to source it from what seemed like a neighboring or connected restaurant space. That level of effort does not go unnoticed.

He also recommended the wet burrito after I explained my hunger level and what I was in the mood for. He nailed it. It was filling without being overwhelming — I might have been one or two bites past full, but that is on me. It hit the spot perfectly.

Great recommendation. Attentive service. Excellent experience. I will be back!!!“

“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 �“

“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!!🥰“

“Been coming here for over fifteen years and decided to leave a review. Service is consistently efficient and friendly, and the flavors are always fresh. Wayyyy more options than Chipotle and the protein options have more flavor than Chipotle. Honestly the best tortilla soup I’ve had, even when including “proper” mexican restaurants. Highly recommend the Cholula chicken for whatever entree you’re getting. Such amazing flavor.“

“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.“
