Taqueria El GYM Reviews
The 5 taco special was PERFECT for an early dinner. The tacos came with grilled onions and half a jalapeño and it was delicious with the chicken. I will be back!
Amazing tacos
This place located next to the Arcade, not in the Arcade
Taqueria El GYM is a cozy and lively Mexican restaurant located in the heart of old Renton downtown. The establishment offers a variety of classic Mexican dishes, including breakfast burritos, tacos, and more. Customers praise the well-portioned and flavorful meals, with the chorizo breakfast burrito and shrimp in garlic sauce being particularly popular. Tacos are highly recommended, especially the 5 taco special which comes with grilled onions and half a jalapeño, and the tortillas are fresh, enhancing the overall taste. The restaurant's small size creates an inviting atmosphere, though the noise level can sometimes be distracting. While vegetarian options are limited, the menu allows for vegetarian tacos and burritos, accommodating different dietary preferences. The staff is friendly, and churros are served warm with just the right sweetness. Overall, Taqueria El GYM provides a satisfying Mexican dining experience for those seeking a casual, no-frills place to enjoy flavorful food at reasonable prices, even if some dishes like beef in green sauce can be a bit spicy. The food offers a good idea of Mexican flavors, though some might find it lacks a touch of authenticity or the heart typical of traditional Mexican cuisine.
