Really tasty, fresh ingredients. I had the Mexican chop salad... yum. I also had their puerco de la eva, and it was so tender and delicious, with a great portion size and amazing homemade tortillas. Im a sucker for tortillas; if youre making them by hand, Im pretty much sold. The point is, this place puts in all the effort and it shows. And theyve got a great layout, whether you want to be the life of the party, or hide from the hustle and bustle for a bit. Their staff might not quite be on point... a lot of young people, which isnt necessarily a bad thing, but comes with its risks. The service isnt regrettable though, just not stellar. Hit em up, you wont regret it.

The location is great, they have good chips (slightly sweet lime taste) and salsa and most of the food is good. Tried something new today that needs to come off the menu - Ahi Nachos. I will be sticking to seafood places for this from now on. Ahi appeared to have been freshly seared, maybe purchased in its necessary for. The wonton chips were way over fried so I used the tortilla chips instead. It is nice they added jicama to the mango and avocado but the ancho chili was unnecessary and actually too away from the taste. For $15 this smallish dish (big plate, lots of spacing on it) should have been much better

Food is completely inauthentic. Not the right meat for asada. Enchiladas were good but rice had a weird taste aswell as the beans(in my opinion) customer service was bad. Never got some drinks at the table. Never got asked for refills. At the end the server took forever to get checks right. ( incorrect meals on different checks) ( had things on my check we never even ordered) And still had to pay the 20% gratuity. I am currently still here waiting for my check. It has now been 20 min and they cannot figure out whos is what. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

The good: Seated immediately. Chips and salsa served quickly as well. Convenient location. Atmosphere was nice - the lights and fire pit were really cool in particular. The bad: Server disappeared for half an hour so glasses werent refilled/additional orders couldnt be taken. Reacted rudely when I asked if I could get some water. Time for food to arrive in general was extremely long as well. Quality of food was mediocre.

Visited for a weekend from Coloado, the main reason my mom and I enjoyed this restaurant so much was because of our waiter, Trevor. He was so friendly and personable. He always had a smile on his face and put off such a good, happy vibe. The drinks were great, chips and salsa were delicious, and our quesadillas were awesome. Thanks Trevor for treating us so well!

Unfortunately the food here isnt so great. The restaurant is at the top floor of the mall, and the patio is a nice touch for the sunny days. The service was also good, but due to the poorer food quality I have to give it a 2 stars, probably 2.5 if I could. Some of the other traditional dishes like enchilada and burritos were ok, but dont get the fajitas.

Great place for a sit down meal in downtown. This is a nice place to grab a meal either for pleasure or business, alone as a couple or for a family. Good food, atmosphere location and service. If you think it is expensive they you are from out of town and dont know restaurant prices in the city.

I love their taquitos. It is about ten pieces sitting on a bed of lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, and other yummy veggies. I love it also because its only about $6. Discovered this place with a friend before going to First Thursday at the Seattle Art Museum last last spring. DELICIOUS! Must go!

Experience has been excellent everytime i have come here. I forgot to tell the waiter something about my food and the food came speedy and not as expect as per my fault- I asked if they could re do it and they said yes no problem. Adrian was my server. Awesome place. would recommend

Just awful. Slow, unfriendly service that crosses into rude. The drinks are real hit or miss. The chips were burnt and the salsa was bland. We had to leave without eating due to the rudeness of Guillermo, our waiter. His attitude was like his hair: ugly. Dont come here!!

Their guacamole is amazing and the tortillas chips were fresh! The fajitas were pretty good too, using poblano peppers instead of the more standard but less delicious bell pepper is a great choice. Only complaint was that they have no actually hot salsa. At all.

Used to be one of my favorite places. But your not welcome if your political views dont match the bartenders. In short its not worth it. There are too many other good places to eat downtown for this city to have to put up being treated poorly.

Ordered chorizo nachos and got baked cheese on tortilla chips with dry chorizo and oily chips. Also got a pork quesadilla (forgive my spelling) was ok except the bland pork paste on my pallete. Pretty good Mui tai though hard to mess that up.

Sat at the bar, had to ask for chips and salsa. Disappointed the tortilla soup bowl was so small, no tortilla strips...had to use chips I asked for and the salt content was high... pick something besides the tortilla soup.

Fantastic food. I had the Vegetarian Burrito with Poblano and Tomatillo sauce and it was probably the tastiest burrito Ive had in Seattle. I cant eat salsa but the chips were really good as well.

It may not be super authentic, and it might be a bit expensive, but I never go home hungry or unhappy. Delicious food, great environment, lime juice on the chips...what more can you ask?

After trying this restaurant a few times, in group settings as well as individually for lunch, I have nothing positive to say. Poor service and inauthentic food... borderline inedible.

Just dont go. Buritto made only from saggy meat in a thick sauce from can. Quesadillas taste the same boring style. No fresh ingredients found in there. Avoid!

Just go try the cheek and tongue Mexico Canting y Corina. This is true food and cuisine for 1.25$. Awesome family looking business. Elite, just try those.

This was a great location for us and our server Trevor was an excellent conversationalist. We just went in for nachos and drinks. Highly recommended.

Went on vacation from New Mexico, was the first and last place we ate during our four day stay. If your a tequila drinker must try the Mexican mule.

This food does not taste like it should. The atmosphere is good and with friendly people as well, but plain and simple, the food sucks.

For Mexican food, everything was way too sweet. The prices are a bit too high for the food and the wait staff paid us no attention.

Took our drink and food order in the bar after 45mins of waiting, no drinks and no food. Went to Johnny Rockets instead.

A MUST stop for us when in Seattle. Great food, great people and an amazing 5th floor outdoor patio in downtown Seattle

Flat pop, bland food. There are a ton of great places to eat in Seattle but this isnt one of them.
