The tacos are stuffed, warm, tasty and filling.Mexican food is expensive here in Port Townsend. 3 tacos for $15 is average price. This place is truly generous. Homemade salsa and salsa bar outside you can take with you in Togo ramekins with lids. Also tapitio too!Thank you for sharing home cooking with this community.

Glad I found this place. I had Chile Verde burrito and gf had two soft cod tacos. We both thoroughly enjoyed them. It was like $22. While waiting We grabbed beers at port townsend brewery and looked at boats. Going to hit this place to buy fish sometime too.

Definitely has potential, as the fish is excellent, and there's a wide array of salsa choices, including several that are actually spicy and hot. However, they need to know that CORN TORTILLAS MUST BE COOKED! Without heating, they are wet slimy pieces of crumbly cardboard. When heated on both sides -- hot -- and pressed down with the skillet, magic happens, they become structurally sound and taste good. After two bites, I took my taco home, disassembled it, cooked the tortilla, rebuilt it, and enjoyed a good taco.

This place is confused. Bloated, over-seasoned, underwhelming taco, prepared like a cafeteria lunch, with a bewildering amount of unnecessary ingredients (Cisco pico and Kraft-like shredded cheese blend?)... and no real inspiration... It went right in the trash. So much meat and slop, so little flavor. Rice and beans are entirely regrettable. Our marina workers deserve better.

Their chili verde tacos are amazing.We also just discovered that the fish market next door (Key City Fish) sells a $25 annual membership that gives you a 10% discount there and at the taco stand. We eat here enough that we went ahead and purchased one.Note: These negative reviews mostly seem to be about how long the wait is, but we call ahead and never have to wait more than 10-12 minutes. Besides, don’t you want them to wait until you order to make your order? This isn’t McDonald’s, but there’s one just down the street if that’s what you prefer.

I am a long time customer. The food is delicious, especially the tacos. Make sure you have plenty of napkins, you'll need them . Call ahead or be prepared to wait. There is usually only one person working the stand manning the register, taking orders, and preparing the food(it was this way before Covid too). Today it's an hour wait just to order and get food. Until today the longest time I had to wait was 45 minutes and that was a few years before Covid, I witnessed that employee that day cry while making the food after another employee inside Key City Fish came over to yell at her in front of us customers. I'm hoping today's employee gets a raise and praise for doing the work of at least 2-3 people at once. I've only ever seen more than one person working the stand twice. As I am finishing this review it's now been over an hour. Hoping this employee is able to get a break soon, she deserves it!

40 minutes in line, 2 people ahead of me. Ridiculously slow.No matter how good the food might be, not waiting to watch the slowest most methodical taco cook in the world!

I went there on a Saturday afternoon, it was busy. There was one girl taking orders and preparing the food. It was supposed to take 20 minutes, but was more like 40. I ended up running two errands while I waited. I ordered a regular soft flour shredded beef taco. What I got was either chicken or fish, I'm not sure, probably fish.It was flavorless!. I tried to take it back but the poor girl who was busier than a one armed paper hanger finally got a chance to step away for a minute so I threw what I didn't eat in the trash and left. Bottom line, poor service, took too way long, the food was not worth the wait.

The food was ok. The service was good. They wait was a little long. The food tasted pre cooked and processed.

Ordered the "seafood" burrito. Wait was long and the burrito's "seafood" consisted of 2 tiny pieces of fish.
