“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!“

“Came here on a whim to pick up a burrito bowl that would (hopefully) last 2-3 meals, and i asked for double carne asada. Not only did the lovely employee give me a very reasonable serving the FIRST time, but she was quick and polite as well. i was so impressed by the quality of food for the money i paid. i’ll definitely come back soon!“

“This is a GREAT taco truck place to stop for lunch. Seriously the best carne asada tacos I've ever had! I want to try the others as well, but the carne asada is so good I haven't gotten around to it yet. The grilled peppers are pretty spicy and the red and green sauces are good. If you are in the area you do not want to miss these.“

“Husband and I were looking for authentic Mexican food. It always come down to how Pozole or Menudo is made. Cava Azul didn’t disappoint. The Pozole was on point!“

“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!“

“We ordered a full taco bar with chips and salsa for a 100+ person FIFA World Cup watch party on the Microsoft campus for the Mexico vs. South Africa game, and it was a massive hit! Despite the large portions, the food completely vanished—everyone absolutely loved it. I also really appreciated the level of service provided by the owner, Cesar. He worked seamlessly with us to accommodate our shifting headcount and approved budget, making this a flawless and successful takeout catering experience. Highly recommend!“

“Okay, not only is the the food amazing, but these folks are honestly some of the best human beings here on earth. Sadly, #Facebook doesn’t have an option for “best human beings”. I left my jacket here on Cinco De Mayo with over $600 cash in the pocket. Guess what? Every single dollar accounted for, jacket returned me too. We’ve been coming here for many, many years….we love these folks. And they are amazing human beings.“

“My family and I have been coming to La Fuente to enjoy meals together for many years. The food and service has always been exceptional and as I've grown older I can enjoy the sangria finally! The restaurant is very welcoming and comfortable with traditional Mexican decor. There are very comfortable booths to sit with family as well as a cantina area.“

“Friendly service and a delicious meal.
I enjoyed the pastor tacos, which have a crispy pork filling and great combination of sweet and savory flavor and pescado, one of the best fish taco. My partner got the chorizo burrito - big portion! Definitely going to a regular spot for us.“

“I love their self-service fresh salsa and condiment counter. Get just the amount you need to go with your tortilla chips and burrito. Amazingly everyone keeps it clean. The dirty dish return is just to the left, and it’s also organized and clean.
The burritos family and i have had here have also come fresh and good, the minted rice and beans, flavorful without tasting salty.“

“First our waitress was to much in a hurry taking our order. Then brings us wrong food. When food arrives we sit and have no utensils. Had to ask a whole different waiter for service. Forgot several items and had to wait longer. The food was not good , I took one taste and ended up going to the bathroom to throw up. Either they had a major change or just was a bad day. Cuz I remember having a good meal a few years back when they opened.“

“This is a family run business with amazing food. Very fresh ingredients and flavorful meats. The prices are fantastic, plenty of parking, and quick service. The homemade Champardo is the best! It also has an “Excellent” rating from the King County Health Department!
You can only rate with stars, but I’d give it 5 flaming hot chilis if I could!“

“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.“
“OMG---what a find! Accidentally stumbled upon this place while getting coffee at Gourmet Latte Drive Thru while visiting the Troll in Issaquah. I've never had better sopes and I've tried a lot (sorry, Suegra/Mother in Law). I highly recommend.“

“Excellent Mexican food in an Issaquah strip mall. Ample portions of consistently satisfying food. Nobody I've eaten with has ever had a bad meal. Fast service and there's always soccer on the televisions.
Still the best on the East Side!! Great food served by nice people. Go here.“

“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!“

“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!!🥰“

“One of the best places you can go. The hours change because of it is not getting enough business on 8th they can't afford to have the second truck there.
If you have never stopped by, I can assure you that the quality of the food, the customer service, it's truly the best around. And you get to support a local family operated business. My favorite is the the burrito. They are packed completely full and are so delicious. I live way up north now, but still come down an hour to eat here. It's my favorite. They are so friendly and fast and good at what they do.“

“Had the carnitas and al pastor tacos, perfectly seasoned & packed with meat, while the Chicken Quesadilla is crispy, cheesy and delicious. Their salsas are the perfect finishing touch—especially the green sauce, which has a great kick.
Friendly service and generous portions. Great food truck!“

“I have been coming here since 2019, and the spicy pork tacos have always been one of my favorites. I’ve brought so many friends here over the years because I genuinely love this place.
I stopped by again yesterday and noticed the taco portions seemed quite a bit smaller than I remember. I completely understand that costs change over time, and I’d happily pay a little more if it meant keeping the portions consistent.

“I am very upset because I work for the owner of the restaurant, Mr. Jose, doing all the branding (menu, banners, social media, photography, website) and he owes me for a year and he no longer wants to pay me. I talk to him and he hangs up the phone. It's not fair that I see that the restaurant always has people and they can't pay me. _____ Estoy muy molesta porque le trabaje al dueño del restaurante al señor jose haciendo todo lo de branding (menu, banners, social media, fotografia, pagina web) y hace un año que me debe y ya no me quiere pagar. le hablo y me cuelga el telefono. no es justo que veo que el restaurante siempre tiene gente y a mi no me pueda pagar.“

“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 �“

“The taco salad is amazing... it comes with (sour cream & cheese) but I removed the sour cream & cheese and got ranch instead. It was really good, the chicken in the taco salad is never over cooked but obviously you can choose your own meat.“
