“I went to their Seattle location for Cinco de Mayo. I had their mango margarita and their breakfast burrito with carnitas. Both were delicious! They have artwork available for purchase and I saw a couple I’d like to buy for myself. I will have to go back and do that.“

“Exceptional. Such great flavors, and the important part-- the meat-- is not too salty. The sides are not afterthoughts but fresh and delicious: the onions and sliced radishes are so good! It's a food truck but delivers like a restaurant.“

“I stopped by here while I was in Georgetown w my hubby. After all, I was at a loss for what to order after looking at the menu😖💧 So I asked the store staff for recommendations. And we ordered Super Burrito chicken and one is spicy one. There are various menus, so if it's your first time like us, it would be helpful to check online or the menus I posted. And the parking lot is only street.
Basically, takeout, quick service here like a food truck.
Freshly made burritos are warm, heavy, and large in size. We could only eat half of it. The taste was good and we were full and happy.
We'll be back and try again!“

“Centro is the best restaurant in Burien delivering a creative seasonal menu and every review is delicious! The owners are extremely involved in the Burien Community and the staff is amazing! Right now my favorites are the fish taco, salmon cevice and paloma. But doraditos, cauliflower nachos, brusselsprouts, habanero enchiladas and avocado salsa are forever my favorites! oh and Churros! & hibiscus tea 🌺Try everything!💖🥰 & Emily is my favorite server (pictured)!“

“Just tried the breakfast restaurant. Same location. Highly recommend! The chilaquiles is delicious. The salsa verde is perfectly seasoned and coffee is hot and tasty. You also get a complementary basket of cinnamon sugar chips to dip in honey while you wait for your food. Will definitely go back!“

“First time here and I ordered the chile relleno. Superb! This is not always prepared carefully and since El Puerco Lloron in Pike Place Market closed, I have not found a good relleno in Seattle. If you order this, please sit down and eat it while it is still hot. Delicious! Will be returning to try other things, too.“

“El Chapulin Oaxaqueno is hands down the best and my favorite tacos in the greater Seattle area. Anytime someone asks for a good taco recommendation they are always at the top of my list!
They have never failed with their service or quality and I’ve loved supporting them throughout their journey.
My go-to tacos are always Chorizo, Asada, and Al Pastor, how we you cannot go wrong with Carnitas either.“

“I tried the taco combo and got birria, asada, and chicken to try. The birria was good, the taco didnt come with cheese or consume but the meat was super great. The asada was pretty good too and a little crispy. I didn’t like the chicken, but i don’t like the chicken anywhere so i might just not like chicken. The guacamole salsa was kind of bland but the hot and extra hot were delicious“

“I have gone past this place 4 years but nvr stopped. Finally on my birthday we went nd I am so glad I did. This has 2 be one of the best Mexican restaurants I have eaten at in a long time nd coming from a Mexi...that says a lot. Our meals were, Mission Burrito with Carne Asada, Shrimp Enchiladas, Chicken Verde Enchiladas, nd TexMex Street Tacos with Carne Asada. The Carne Asada was not chewy or fatty, the shrimp fresh nd the chicken was full of flavor. It was around $87(b4 tip) nd for a family of 4 that's really good. Our server was amazing. She was helpful nd really attentive. I will definitely be back again. Thank you guys 4 adding 2 a great bday!!!“

“My family was doing a get together and the main dish was birria so my cousin asked us to bring some rice and beans. We didn't have time or the necessary stuff to make it ourselves so we decided to go buy some from a local business. We were recommended to come here after checking out a butcher shop nearby and when we arrived, we could tell from the smell that this was going to be an amazing spot. The inside was very cute and cozy with plenty of seating for solo or group diners. They had a small fridge with a lot of different bottled beverages inside. The decor is lovely with the colors of Mexican adorned over the walls. The long fabric on each table added more to the cozy ambiance as well.
I love that they had containers that labelled for rice and beans and the prices on them as it wasn't on their menu. We ended up getting a large and it was definitely enough for five hungry people as we were able to get two to four refills each. The prices were great too as I believe it was $20 for a good amount of great quality food. The kind female employee welcomed us in and let us know that the container prices were only for rice and bean orders. She also asked if we needed any utensils but we told that we were okay without them and I appreciate her asking rather than assuming.
Now for the food, the refried beans were fantastic with chilis in there which I have never seen but now I don't think I can enjoy refried beans anywhere else as it just added an extra layer of flavor but it was indeed spicy so eat with caution if you can't handle spicy chilis. The rice was also very flavorful and you can just tell a lot of love and care go into their food. We definitely want to come back to try their food.“

Parking: Parking lot around the corner that is labeled for McLendons but no one ever uses it“

“Taqueria Casa Mixteca in Burien is the kind of place that reminds you why food is more than just a meal it’s a cultural experience. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warmth and genuine friendliness that makes you feel less like a customer and more like a guest in someone’s home. The staff carry themselves with pride and kindness, and that energy sets the tone for everything that follows.
The atmosphere feels like a small portal into Oaxaca colorful, expressive, and alive with detail. The decorations and artwork aren’t just aesthetic choices; they tell a story. Every wall, every piece of décor, every menu offering feels intentional and rooted in tradition. You can feel the cultural heartbeat of the place while you dine.
And the food delivers on that promise beautifully rich flavors, comforting textures, and dishes that taste like they come from generations of craft rather than a recipe sheet. Each plate feels abundant and thoughtfully prepared, the kind of meal you slow down for and savor.
If you’re looking for more than just good food if you want an experience that feels authentic, welcoming, and memorable this spot is a gem. Five stars without hesitation.“

“Amazing tacos here, the meat was very flavorful and I had to use the second corn soft taco to eat all the meat. Very accomindating. The creamy green salsa is the spicy one, a must have for spice lovers. Get the gaucamole on the side, you won't regret it.“
