Tldr: nice vibes and decent food but expensive

My partner and I wanted to share a burrito and so they cut the burrito in half for us and plated each half so nicely. They also have a really nice back patio and it's nice in the summer.
The food is good as well. They charged us for extra salsa without telling us though. I wish we got the heads us chips and salsa was already $7 and lots of Mexican restaurants give that for free.

Overall experience was mid — good enough to not feel bad about the cost but not worth returning. The food lacked depth of flavor, the salmon greens tasted unbalanced and too sour, and the margaritas were not flavorful.

The bartender’s margarita was amazing, and so were the tacos. The chicken mole street tacos on their happy hour menu were especially delicious! Super nice staff, lots of families and just a great spot to relax on a hot Sunday afternoon!

Delicious entrees and drinks! Be careful of being overcharged- our server, Ashley, added over $50 to our bill with items we did not order. She disappeared quickly when we attempted to get the bill fixed, however, the manager did assist and was very apologetic. I would absolutely eat here again- just scrutinize your bill!

I won’t lie, I’m skeptical of Mexican restaurants in Seattle, especially in Fremont. This place pleasantly surprised me and exceeded my expectations.

I’ve been a few times now, and each time I’ve had amazing service. The decorations and layout create a beautiful atmosphere. You can’t go wrong sitting anywhere, but I especially loved the covered patio.

El Camino has it going on! I got the nachos with a few mods (I’m picky) and it was delicious. Don’t knock the crispyness, I loved the flavor!

Good food. Get tacos! Anything with Chipotle sauce. Their plantain chips with guac and salsa is fantastic.

During a recent trip for a wedding with my wife and friends, we decided to try a Mexican brunch spot that had caught our eye, and it did not disappoint! The huevos rancheros were phenomenal — perfectly cooked eggs over warm, crispy tortillas, with a rich and tangy ranchero sauce that had just the right amount of spice. Each bite was a burst of fresh, authentic flavor, balanced beautifully with refried beans and a sprinkling of fresh cheese.

Of course, brunch wouldn’t be complete without a margarita (or two!), and these were some of the best we’ve ever had. Served perfectly chilled with a salted rim, the margaritas were refreshing and strong, made with quality tequila and fresh lime juice. They paired wonderfully with the rich, savory dishes, making the meal an absolute treat.

The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy yet lively, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy great food with friends. The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall experience. If you’re in town and craving a true taste of Mexican brunch, I highly recommend this place — it’s a must-visit!

We were exploring Fremont and stumbled across this gem. Authentic atmosphere with a cozy feel. The service was prompt and incredibly friendly. The food was top-notch from the appetizers through to the desserts. and prices are reasonable. We will definitely be back when we're in the neighborhood.

We went to this place during Seattle Restaurant week and it was an average experience we had. The food tastes okay, the ambiance was good and the staffs were very humble. They have limited options for vegetarian/vegan food.

We enjoyed both the carnitas tacos and carnitas burrito. The carne asada was a little dry and tough to chew. The mango ceviche is OK - some fish pieces were fishy.
Very cool atmosphere. Would come back for happy hour - every day from 4 to 6

Great spot! Mole sauce was perfection and the margaritas were so good we had 5 each. Restaurant and surrounding area has a chill, artsy vibe and Abby was an amazing server. If I lived nearby I’d be here twice a week no doubt.

I paid $18 + tip for the tiniest shrimp quesadilla I have seen in my life. It was so sad. It was a 6" tortilla cut into quarters with a lump of guac in the middle.
