    Across the street, Snoqualmie River

    On a leisurely drive through eastern King County, Snoqualmie Falls on a rainy day found myself in Fall City and hungry. Decided to try this Mexican place. I found it good but not exceptional. Food was not as flavorful as places I frequent in Seattle. Service was very good and place is small but comfortable.

    Shredded Chicken Tostada
    Carin ..

    Delicious food, friendly people, and large portions. I got a shredded chicken tostada and a glass of sangria. My husband had an asada burrito (wet). Their chips & salsa are fresh and delicious. Definitely recommend El Caporal!

    We got the Tres Amigos Platter & Tacos Al Pastor during lunch time-- everything was so delicious! Food was fresh & in amazing portions. Everyone there was super welcoming and friendly, with the atmosphere being really fun to be in! Definitely will be coming again! Great hidden gem.

    I found the decorations very inviting

    We were staying at a place in Fall City for the night, and the weather moved in with a pretty snowy mess over the area. Calling around to a number of the local eateries, we found that most weren't open in that weather. Calling El Caporal, a friendly voice informed us they too would be closing a bit early, but were happy to wait for us to join them first. Naturally, we hurried on down. What a fantastic experience; the staff treated us like valued guests, and made some great recommendations from the kitchen. I decided on the Pollo Asado; my partner ordered the Fajita Burrito. Both were delicious, and were very generous portions, as well! The place was very warm & inviting, and very festively decorated. For us, there was plenty of parking on an evening like this, but even on a busy night, there is still plenty of spaces available. We'll definitely stop in on our next trip through!

    Beef taco
    Katherine G.

    Honestly a pretty mediocre experience. I came with a big group and we were seated quite quickly, which was one of the nice parts. I ordered a beef taco and side salad since I didn't want a full meal. The beef taco was fine, actually pretty good for what it was. However, I was super disappointed by the salad. It was $5 and literally just a pile of of lettuce with some tomatoes, nothing else. If I had known that was what it was, I definitely would not have gotten it. Nonetheless, the interior is quite nice and they were friendly. I just probably would not come back.

    Delicious burrito & huge burrito.

    If you're in Washington this place is a must! It's the best authentic Mexican food place in the state. Phenomenal customer service and delicious food. This is a place I'll be visiting every time I am in town.

    Chili verde
    Leah O.

    Stopped here after a long day and was so happy to find an authentic Mexican restaurant. The chips and salsa were so good, can't beat warm tortilla chips. Had a prickly pear margarita, which was extremely refreshing; not too sweet. The chili verde was delicious. I wanted to eat the whole plate but there was too much food! I definitely recommend this place.

    El Caporal Especial!!

    Restaurant smells really bad. Almost like mold and a nasty retirement home funk. Had to leave
