The tortillas are really really good, also the food quality was top notch as well as presented wonderfully. The menu is well printed and not overwhelming. Will definitely be going back.

Quaint little hole in the wall with great flavors from Oaxaca. Very much a local fav vibe by the amount of traffic coming in and out. Ordered the Pozole and it was loaded with intense flavor and the pork was super tender. I’m a mezcal fan so they offered some good mezcals to sample. Ordered the Rey Campero flight and it didn’t disappoint. The tostadas with avocado salsa were a great appetizer. Light but could be a meal in itself. Our server was great but it was a bit clunky getting seated and our host didn’t say much. Still worth a visit.

Food is notable for how bad it is. Very very bland. The more you eat it the worse it gets. Very small portions. If I had made what I got there at home, I would have said to myself wow I messed this up. I am not exaggerating. Service was very slow and they messed up our order. Other than that it was great.

It was very quiet so the service staff were incredibly attentive! The food was delicious

I thought I was going to have to run and eat, so excuse the box.

I picked up some quesadillas and had em swap the red salsa to green. It was superb. I'm also kind of glad I stopped and took time to eat there as it was just a relaxing ambiance of people making tiny tortillas near me and the cool stuff on display.

Worth it to sit down and get your food served on a plate if you're not busy.

Really great Mexican food, drinks were really good and not too bad of pricing for a Mexican spot in Seattle. Spent about $50 a person for entree, two alcoholic drinks, and one shot. The music was nostalgic vibe of Mexican music I grew up listening to. Will be going again!

I loved this place! Food was sooooo delish, the mole dish is freaking beyond, and the cocktail with their house spicy tequila…omg!!! 😍😍😍The music caught my attention from the outside! The vibe inside is really authentic, music is perfectly loud for the atmosphere but also doesn’t destroy the ears and allow for a nice conversation 💫💫💫

El Mezcalito has been my go to spot ever since I moved here 9 years ago.
Tacos Oahaqueñas are divine! The food is consistently great, they don’t skimp on the drinks, and the staff is not only friendly but very considerate of my dietary differences. I live with celiac disease and El Mezcalito has never been an issue for me.
Ten out of ten to Raul and all the staff there.

Dietary restrictions: Lots of delicious gluten-free options, well indicated on the menu. Most anything can be made dairy free upon request.

This place has the most rude and inconsiderate staff I've ever seen. This combined with the sub par food, and ridiculous prices means I'll never be coming back here again. Take your business to some place that values your support.

Super fun small restaurant. We went on a Tuesday and dinner time and there was no wait. The service was great, they were very attentive and friendly. The food was excellent, their chips and salsa from the salsa bar were great. Got the carne asada tacos and they were delicious.

Overall a nice place. We tried the fish tacos with halibut which was pretty good and I would definitely recommend it. We also got the carne asada which was nice and I also tried molotes which would have been a nice appetizer but I ended my meal with it. Nevertheless I liked the food and the service was good.

3 really good tacos plus dipping juice for $19.50 ( includes tip)... I remember when food trucks were the less expensive, eat-out option!
