I am currently eating my El Diablo torta and it is so delicious that I had to put it down and make this review immediately. Yumm!

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! read more

Great great great Birria Burrito. Just a storefront with no inside seating, just a few benches outside so it's kinda just a step up from a taco truck. But if taco trucks are your thing (and they ARE my thing) it's even better than a truck. And the burrito was DELICIOUS and the salsa was perfection - I just wish Id asked for more than one container of it because it was so good. This is a really nice block in Georgetown with great Vietnamese coffee around the corner at Voi CA Phe and the the awesome Fantagraphics bookstore and a groovy vintage shop plus another one that offers soft serve. So with the burrito you have everything you need for a chill afternoon in Georgetown. read more

This is an awesome spot for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Breakfast burritos are so good! The ultimate vegetarian burrito is to die for. The salmon burrito is perfect. Love this local stop and the staff are always so sweet! No notes! read more

It's been a minute since I went here but I think it's even better than I remembered! The Mac salad this time was more flavorful. Not sure what they did to it but typically I almost begrudgingly eat that stuff when it comes with meals (like when I get Hawaiian food) but I couldn't stop eating this one! I also tried the strawberry flan today. The flan on top was suuuper rich. Highly recommend, especially for the price. Lastly, the El Diablo sandwich was spicier (but not too spicy) than last time which I actually appreciate because that was my only complaint last time that it's called El Diablo but it wasn't spicy. It's not a very big sandwich, but they really stuffed it with chorizo and shrimp. Service was very nice and didn't have to wait too long. You order at a walk up window and there's an outdoor bench if you want to eat there read more

Expensive like everywhere else of course. No place to sit down to eat and with summer just around the corner to you the owner you have to put out some sort of shade (umbrella or something) our backs almost burned in the hot son yesterday. In case you don't know your bench that we sat at the foot rest is broken change it. We had to get in our truck to eat our very tiny portions of food, but most importantly folks you have to pay for parking on top of everything else. Don't go here unless you are ready to drop some money left and right. Sorry not sorry but to the owner cater to your customers a little more as in show you actually care just a tad more than you do. Food was ok I guess? But for me I don't think I'll go back. I enjoy sitting inside and enjoying the ambiance of a place I just dropped a large amount of money at. But if you like this go check it out. Maybe I just went at a bad time. ‍ read more

friday late afternoon driving through georgetown on my way back to west seattle and i made an impromptu stop at el pirata so i didn't have to think too much about what to eat for dinner. ordered the el diablo torta, minus the chorizo and got a side of the macaroni salad. both were tasty! order came out quickly and there's definitely a lot to choose from on the menu. if you're walking around georgetown and have a hankering for take out mexican this is a solid take out option to know about. nice person at the window and good food at the end of a long work week, so no complaints! read more

Friend took me to El Pirata Tortas Y Burritos and told me it was the best Cuban sandwich he had ever had. So I ordered the El Cubano. And he was right, I thought it was the best Cuban sandwich ever! It was beyond delicious! Nice thick piece of pork that was very tender and full of flavor. I got the mild salsa which was delicious and just the right amount of, "pica". Will definitely go back. Lots of other choices that look tempting. read more

This place is part of the Valhalla sandwich shop chain. I thought it was an independent shop until I recognized the branding. It's a to-go window with a couple benches in front. Personally, I wish that the sandwich was larger for the price and the macaroni salad had more flavor. I preferred Valhalla. The person working the window was very kind and service was quick. I'd recommend if you just need lunch to quickly take with you. read more

Wow. The El Diablo Torta with shrimp and cheese (blue cheese?) is an incredible mix of flavors. I haven't had chorizo balanced with shrimp often (or ever?) and the combination of "surf and turf" is brilliant, and somehow contrasts incredibly well with the chipotle aioli. It's a huge burst of flavor. The bread was soft, the portion large and filling for the price, and service super friendly. Oh - the chocoflan is amazing. Probably one of the best I've had in the city. Flan part is super custardy and not too sweet and very milky. The cake part, which I often find dry and lacking in flavor in similar combinations, was rich and had a tender crumb. Definitely get this for dessert! read more

Came in for a quick meal and was greeted with amazing service! The person who took our order gave us great suggestions. We were going to get our food to-go but he offered to give us unlimited sauces if we dined in. Food was 10/10 :) Would come back! read more

My carnitas tacos were sumptuous- tender, flavorful and plentiful. My missus chicken taco was not that great - no seasoning on the chicken and it tasted like roast chicken sprinkled in a taco. Hence the average of 4 stars. read more

El Pirata Tortas Y Burritos - Carnitas - yummy!!! - Latin American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I have been here a few times now and really love it! Price is reasonable, the owners are super kind, and the food is delicious! It is more of walk up window style of restaurant and perfect for a quick lunch or breakfast! I love to go on a walk to a local coffee shop and stop here for a breakfast burrito or cubano afterwards. I also really like the carne asada burrito! So happy to see this new addition to Georgetown! read more

Amazing service and amazing food! Very clean location. Love this place! Come here for lunch all the time

The birria burrito was excellent, flavorful and balanced, soft tortilla, juicy birria, crunchy bright pickled onions and creamy pinto beans and rice. Just right. Didn't like the Cubano, lacked flavor and texture - was honestly not great, bland and mushy/unremarkable bread and a boiled slab of pork. One hit, one miss. Potatoes had good flavor but were cooked in almost unappetizing way - not quite boiled nor pan fried - a little strange. read more

The Fortas are delicious as well as the fish burrito. The service at the window was friendly and prompt , exceeds most service standards in the Seattle area! read more

Hidden gem of a place in Georgetown! This used to be Lorena's Kitchen but then became a Walk up window that does mexican Tortas and burritos! The Cubano is my usual go to torta and has a nice piece of pork belly and sliced ham with cheese and pickles. It's not a classic pressed cuban sandwich but this version is still delicious! When I am feeling more breakfasty they do have a decent breakfast torta with scrambled eggs and two kinds of sausage. Tortas are not gargantuan but are the perfect size for a nice quick lunch. Walk up window only so you will have to take your grub to your car, curb or on a nice stroll around Gtown to enjoy. read more

El Pirata Tortas Y Burritos - Breakfast torta - Latin American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Had the breakfast torta this past Wednesday morning and WOW! This thing has all of the breakfast stuff I want and then some, love the picked onions in it, the guac and the bread was super yummy. Wasn't the typical bolillo bread at most places, this was more of a ciabatta style bread but still great!!! Food was made fresh to order and didn't take too long and the guy who took my order was super friendly. Walk up window kind of spot. Usually I was gargantuan portions but the torta was actually quality and perfectly sized and the side of Mac salad that came with it was yummy. Will absolutely come back here! read more

Taste is very good, but it's kind of expensive for its smaller than normal portions. The burrito is also filled with fillers instead of meat. 3.5% credit card fee or pay cash and they don't give back your change. I did not ask for change back because she will then "fix" my food. She also did not give us our drinks until we noticed and asked for them. Bottom line, greedy. read more

The reviews have to be edited or by people who have never had real authentic good Mexican food. If i can describe this place in 3 words it would be Small, expensive and gross! Let's start off with the portion size. These were like bite size tortas. Mind you it's okay if it's good food but it wasn't!! The cheese had to 100% been old! We took 1 bite and it taste like throw up! I was disgusted!! I am not one to waste food but we ended up throwing the whole order away! There is no way this place has such a high rating without them removing the 1 stars!! read more

Definitely Seattle sized portions, but the flavor of the food was great, it was ready on time, and service was friendly. Skip the fries and get the mac salad, which is not like your traditional regular mac salad from other restaurants but still good. We got El Dorado and the Supreme Chicken Burrito, and would recommend the burrito over the torta as the torta got a bit soggy while taking it to go. Will probably be back! read more

Still loving El Pirata. Easy quick stop in Georgetown for tortas, their bierra burrito, or tacos. The taco selection isn't as extensive as some places, but that's ok. $12 and I walked away full on their brisket tacos with rice and beans on the side. Service: friendly and efficient! read more

The Tortas are on the smaller side. We got the El Diablo and La Bamba and though the ingredients were good on their own, I can't say I enjoyed the flavors working together. We ordered online for a quick pick up (within 15 minutes) so definitely a good place to grab lunch if you're in the area. We were able to easily grab our food from the window. The mac salad was a tad bland and I would skip out on the fries all together. read more

Came on a hungover Saturday and this hit the spot. There are some reviews stating portions are a bit small, but for the quality it hits just the mark. Quick fast service in a little window that feels like ordering out of Mexico. We came on a sunny day so it was nice to wait on a bench and enjoy the weather while we waited and then ate in a neighboring park. Great addition to the community. read more

True 5***** Story: On my way home, I see this cute little Tortas Spot on the corner of, 12th and Bailey S. (Georgetown) and I almost got whiplash trying to read the colorful menu....so I go to busts U'e (u-turn)...I stopped in BofA parking lot with no where to park just stopped....I looked for this place on Yelp finally I found it but online ordering was for the next day....For safety reasons I parked (ok I doubled parked) and when I couldn't order online (I was only trying to see the menu from the comfort of my car) I decided to get out my car. It was a little past 7p but I could see the OPEN sign and a line. I walk up in awe of the cute lil New spot. I ordered the veggie torta w/ no cheese extra v. tahini sauce. Mr. & Mrs. Andreque run this gem. It's been here for about 9 months, and I've passed it numerous times and didn't see it. Today I decided to slow down and stop to "smell the flowers" and pay attention to my surrounds...and they caught my eye and stopped me in my tracks. A risk non the less because no one can drive up in this B. After flipping the U'e and parking where I wanted to (it was safe) I walk up. Immediately I loved it...Andreque didn't look a bit bothered he was welcoming smiling and ready for my order. Although technically they were closed he told me what was available to order. I ordered my veggie torta w/ v extra sauce (don't get extra too good to smother the yummie'ness). OH MY GOODNESS THE VEGGIE TORTA CHANGED MY LIFE it was so delicious and my side (surprised there was a side) I chose macaroni salad....if u like macaroni salad it was light and delicious. Sometimes when you stop to "smell the flowers" it turns out to be DELICIOUS!! read more

Their tortas are fire! I had their breakfast burrito, and then came back for the torta! Highly recommended if you're visiting Seattle. I travel a lot for work and can't wait to go back for more. The service is amazing, super nice. The ambiance is small but great. Love this place read more

OMG that Cuban sandwich I'm drooling for more right now. Best I've ever had. Coming back like tomorrow. Peaceowt and party on, my fine Yelpian friends read more

Everything we got here was an 11/10 and the staff was so nice. The pork belly cubano is insane

Mexcellente! It's all great. Fast, delicious, and lots of great options. Strictly a to-go operation but otherwise can't be beat for the area. read more

I stopped by this place after driving past a few times seeing there was a long line. It's a takeout window only and the staff is nice. This was my first time trying a torta and honestly was kinda disappointed. It's rather small for $13 and it was pretty bland. I tried the asada torta and it didn't have the signature flavorful asada taste. Also, they had these pickled jalapeños on the sandwhich and they had a horrible taste and ruined the sandwich. I will say the ingredients seemed fresh. I may try a different sandwich and omit the jalapeños if I'm in the area and want something quick. read more

I am a music teacher, what do I know about tortas? Nothing, I confess. However, I know what tastes good and know when something is freshly cooked. I have tried most all of their tortas, and each one was excellent and full of flavor. They also include a side, the best of which is the macaroni salad. Highly recommended! read more

I drove by this place last week and saw a line wrapping around the corner and made note to check it out. They've been open 2 months but now have flags in the ground that definitely make it more visible. I stopped by today and got the chicken habanero as a burrito. This thing was an amazing size and SO DELICIOUS. I had beans and rice added as well per the recommendation of the counter clerk. The flavors were so good. The avocado and chicken were so fresh. The sauce used was tasty and the rice and beans as well good!! This has now become one of my favorites and I'll definitely be stopping by for lunch whenever in the area. read more

Delicious and great service! Ordered quite a few items for my employees and order was ready within 15 min and already waiting for pick up when I got there. Everything tasted so fresh and the tortillas... YUM read more

Delicious tortas and burritos at a super affordable price! The people who run the restaurant are super nice and friendly as well, really happy to have them in Georgetown! read more

These Tortas are fire! I wish they were bigger but there bomb I recommend this place.

So I was introduced to the EL Diablo by a friend and I must say what a perfect savoring mouth explosion. I have these delivered 25 mins away and they still arrive warm and delectable. Perfect Shrimp and Chorizo combination. I could eat one everyday. read more

Great food, fast and friendly service, easy to find and plenty of parking. Definite recommend.

As Californians, we approve!! Ridiculously good and super nice staff.
