12 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Tukwila

“Great tacos!! Nice and clean. Great staff“

“It’s our first time today. We got lucky coz every time we’ll go there the wait is always long. We had a good experience, the receptionist is very nice and very helpful too bad we forgot to ask her name. Our server is very good and welcoming too. And the food didn’t disappoint us. So happy coz this restaurant is just a walking distance from our place. We will definitely go back and recommend this place to our friends.“

“Absolutely my new favorite! Great food, drinks and service. I will definitely be back.“

“I just moved to the neighborhood back in December and this has been my third time coming here & I love it great food, great service, drinks and the dessert was tasty I Highly recommend The Madador Restaurant“

“Taco Del Mar catered one of our events and they did a fantastic job! Food was delicious (all was devoured quickly) and their team made sure we had everything we needed in order to easily serve the food. We would have them cater our events again in a heartbeat!“

“I ordered a tomato basil tortilla burrito with fish, cabbage, black beans, salsa, white sauce and onions — so good. Super fresh, perfectly made, and the service was genuinely 5-star. I grabbed mine to go, and they had it ready quickly and exactly how I ordered.

The only reason I'm not giving the full 5 stars is the parking situation. First Avenue parking (near Pike Place Market) will test your patience and your parallel-parking confidence.

But the food and service? Absolutely worth it.“

“Great food and service!“

“So I've seen mixed reviews about Taco Del Mar. it's not a franchise like Chipotle and the first store opened in Washington. They do have a few locations in nearby states but I still consider it a WA local taco place. Sure it's not the best like stuff you'd get from Texas or SoCal but if you have a craving for Mexican and don't want to go to a franchise like Chipotle, then this is your spot.

I think the mixed reviews are due to the varying items they offer. I used to go to Taco Del Mar a lot as a kid - even before Chipotle was a thing. I think they shine with their burritos, fish taco, rice and beans, and taco salad. Anything else I really don't think it's worth trying. While the burrito and fish taco are on the expensive side, the taco salad is a great deal. I door dashed a taco salad for $13 and the portion size was great. They even make their own taco shell. It was a little on the cold side and they forgot my side of white fish sauce (my favorite) but remembered to put my sour cream and salsa on the side. I definitely prefer taco Del Mar over chipotle. Give the taco salad a try (not the burrito bowls). I feel like those aren't filling enough but for $13 total the taco salad is a great bang for your buck.

Also I hope this can be added but on door dash there's no option to add the white fish sauce.“

“Maya's catered our wedding and they were SPECTACULAR. Went above and beyond to give our 100 guests a really great dinner. We ordered a variety of tacos and fajitas, and they had the thought to include cheese enchiladas for any vegetarians. We had compliments from everyone about how good the food was! We have friends from up in Shoreline that have driven down to the Rainier Ave location to get dinner since the wedding!The setup was all very nice, and the staff set up the cutest tortilla chip basket waterfall, helped serve dinner, and even helped clean up and pack up the leftovers for us.They were easy to work with, priced fairly, and the food and service was excellent. Highly recommended!!“

“Great Customer service and love to go back there again Thanks“

“Pretty decent quesadilla. Salsa was a bit lacking but considering this is inside a convention center in the rainiest city in America I'll take it. Employees are generally a bit rude but the food is good enough to put up with it imo. I may stop in every day of the convention that I'm here for!“

“As a vegetarian, I’m always looking for good meat-free options, and this place did not disappoint! I ordered the veggie nacho burrito, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and filling. The ingredients tasted fresh, the service was friendly, and the restaurant was clean. I’ll definitely be back. If you’re looking for a great vegetarian option, I highly recommend giving the veggie nacho burrito a try!“
