Nutella French toast w/ bacon
Tracie E.

Heard good things about this place and it's always busy so I finally had a chance to stop in on a Saturday afternoon for brunch with my family. We waited about 30mins which wasn't bad and the staff were all very friendly. From the bright atmosphere to the flavorful food we all enjoyed our meal. Service was good, enough workers to address the full house so I appreciate that we were not ignored or forgotten in the busy place. Prices and portion sizes were fair in my opinion. What we ordered: 2 hot chocolates w/ whip, kids French toast, Nutella French toast, breakfast burrito w/ bacon, Omelette Lovers w/ side of bacon, and breakfast tacos w/sausage (not pictured because my brother was being a jerk LoL) If I had to point out some negatives I would say parking lot was very small, there is more parking around back. And our food didn't all come out at the same time so for us to wait for everyone to get their plate and say grace our potatoes were cold. I think it goes without saying that the food is either going to be sweet (Nutella, tres leches, etc) or heavy (see images of wet burrito and nachos) so if you aren't in the mood for either of those maybe this won't be the best place for you. Overall still had a good experience and would def return.

Been wanting to eat here for a while so expectations were HIGH! Every time we would pass by, it's always busy, so I figured it must be good. We came in on a Sunday morning, parking lot is small and packed. There was thankfully no wait, and we were able to get seated quickly even though it was busy. The waiter was very nice and attentive. The vibe inside was very warm, there was a lot of talking and laughing! We ordered the tres leches pancakes, breakfast tacos, and a side of rice and beans. Each bite was packed with flavor! We enjoyed everything we ordered from the food to the fresh orange juice and horchata.

Such a vibrant restaurant, this is the first time here and will definitely be back. The pictures speak for themselves. Had breakfast there. I had the steak breakfast which had a nice flavor. Food came out hot. Portions size is good 8/10. Price is a not bad 8/10. Flavor of the food 8/10. I would highly recommend this place it's cute and great service. All the servers were very attentive and quick to respond. Only downside the parking lot is small . And it was cold in the restaurant. Great job guys a big big plus for me was that they did military discount. Ty so much guys

Chilaquiles de Mole
Elizabeth E.

We have a monthly team lunch for work where we celebrate anniversaries and birthdays. November is my month so I chose Kikey's for our lunch. Our wait time was about 15 mins for a table large enough to accommodate our group. We all sat and scanned the QR code for the menu (well I already knew what I wanted from scoping the cafe for months ahead). The bright colors from the plates to decor were welcoming as was the friendly and helpful staff. We all said it was hard to decide because all of the options looked great on the website. I chose the chilaquiles de mole, there was a torta order, two French toast orders and tacos (no pic unfortunately). My chilaquiles de mole was robust with spice and deep flavors. Absolutely loved it! As soon as we got our plates we all dove in and then the rounds of mmmm's and yums started. Everything met or exceeded the expectations and everyone agreed that Kikey's would become a rotation for their brunches in the future. As a matter of fact we are coming back as a group in December!

We put off going to Kikey's because we were waiting for the hype to go down. It's been a few years and it's still crazy busy. We came for Saturday breakfast and it blew our minds. The food was delicious. It's the best breakfast food I've had in the Seattle area. Everything was perfectly cooked, the flavors were amazing and the portion sizes were massive. Restaurant is small and busy so expect a wait. It's worth it. We are already looking forward to coming back. The service was top notch. I can only say good things about Kikey's!

Wow this place is amazing! I've been searching for a spot that rivals some of the Mexican cafes back home in Southern California and this is it! The food is unbelievable, so flavorful and authentic. Their breakfast is what we came for, but we will be back for dinner soon. The churro pancakes came with a dulce de leche sauce, ice cream, bananas and whipped cream. They were the perfect sweet treat to share. The breakfast parilla was super filling, cheesy, and hit the spot. My partner loved the chilaquiles burrito. The service was super friendly, we went around 9:30 and got seated immediately. The restaurant has a super fun vibe with great ambience. You can tell this is a neighborhood gem. We can't wait to come back!!

Eggs Benedict Mexico 2 English muffin 2025 - $17.99
Kelly C.

Locally family owned and operated. This authentic Mexican restaurant has wonderful food. Regional Recipes handed down from family and it shows in the dishes. Ambiance 4 Stars - established near the Seattle airport, it is located in small building with minimal parking space. So, you will need to find space in another lot or business. The decor is friendly, homey, but a modern vibe twist. Mi Casa Su Casa is how we felt. The are about 30 tables that could seat 2-8 people. The tables and chairs were solid and clean. Because of the popularity of their regional food , it can get loud when all the tables are full. Service 4.5 Stars - our host and server were friendly, professional and welcoming. They made you feel like family. Our server has a beautiful and relaxing smile and answered all of our questions. Though we had some confusion on the Cafe - Espresso order but we can't hold that against her. Food: 3.5 - 4.5 Stars Get ready to unbuckle or loose you pants cuz they give you a healthy portion of food. It was wonderful and surprising for the price. Coffee w Espresso- 3.5 stars - it was okay. The beans were different and tasted light on the Espresso. Breakfast Entrees: 1. Eggs Benedict with a litte touch of Mexico - 2 Toasted English muffin, poached eggs, grilled tomatoes, Garnished with Hollandaise sauce, Chorizo, salsa Verde, house potatoes and side salad. 4.25 stars The poached eggs were perfect, light and the creamy yolk blended nicely into chorizo and muffin. The diced chorizo was seasoned well and not too spicy. 2. Asada Burrito - 4.5 Stars Carne Asada, pinto refried beans, rice and cheese mexi blend. Served with Pico de Gallo on the side and house potatoes. All of their burritos are large! Excellent leftover food if you can't eat it all. The carne asada was tendered and flavorful with the perfect balance of the Mexican seasoning and not too salty. We asked for a hotter salsa and they brought three different homemade blends. The salsa verde was the top choice. Right amount of heat, cilantro, lime and tomatillo sauce. We would stayed longer but had to catch our next flight. Glad we came and will definitely be in my Seattle Favorites for the next time we are here.

Avocado Toast
Rhett B.

On our yearly trip to Seattle, my beautiful wife and I had to find something close to the airport for brunch and Kikey's was quite the find! The decor would be what you would expect to find in a Mexican restaurant with a Mexican superhero? And Day of the Dead decor. I ordered a horchata and my wife ordered a horchata coffee to start things off. My horchata was excellent which in my opinion you just have to make it taste not like water and Kikey's passed! My wife enjoyed her coffee but said it was a little too sweet for her first thing in the morning. I went with the wet burrito and it was massive! The sauces on top especially the Verde was delicious with a little bit of heat. The steak was seasoned well but had more than one piece of grizzled mixed in. My wife enjoyed the avocado toast as it came with some kind of avocado dip. She added bacon and Kikey's didn't hold back for $5 extra dollars. Kikey's will be a go to for us whenever we need a place to eat close to the airport. The drinks and toast were superb and even though there was some grizzled in the burrito, it doesn't outweigh the amount of food or the amount of steak I received.

Torta
Nin A.

Was a highly rated place and highly recommended to us to come check this place out! A couple of times we had to wait longer than 30 min since you have to take note that it's not a big place to really dine into especially during the weekends! Unfortunately had to pass those couple of times due to the wait. Our French toast was great but as for the torta I don't think it was up to my standards if that makes sense (I've definitely had better). The ambiance of the place though it's really cool and very much kinda like a small diner place, I do love their plates and cups that they use to present the food!

Chorizo breakfast burrito - IG @bougiefoodieboi
Kyle W.

My friend hyped this place up as the best breakfast burrito in town, and he said it several years ago before it got so busy. I tried to go here a few times - on a Sunday 8am I called and they said a 45-60 min wait, which is crazy. I then went on a Thursday at 1pm and there was still a 20-30 min wait, so I gave up and just placed a takeout order. If it's that hyped now, it must be good? Yes it's good but honestly overhyped. I got the breakfast burrito with chorizo which came with breakfast potatoes and salsa on the side. $17.99 before tax comes out to almost $20 after tax, which is quite expensive, but the portions are large such that this was the only thing I needed to eat for the rest of the day (aside from protein shake and other light stuff) The breakfast burrito is nicely grilled on both sides and stuffed with rice, beans, and eggs scrambled with chorizo. It's hard to pinpoint the chorizo specifically but it's there in good quantities. The green salsa complements the dish well. Breakfast potatoes were okay and not necessary - I'd love if they had an option to take it out for a less expensive order. It's overall very filling and flavorful, and it was pretty good. I am not sure I would wait this long or brave the dine in waitlist at any time of the day after 8am to try again, but would happily order the burrito again if it's not as big of a time sink. The takeout order was quoted 8-10 min from both the host and the counter cashier but it actually took 20 min so I almost ran late to my other appointment, so better estimates would be appreciated. They told me to wait outside but after 15 min, nothing. At the 20 min mark I had to walk back inside only for them to deliver the order... imagine how long I'd be wasting my time if I just chilled outside? I took off a star for this.

French toast with the plumpest blueberries
Cristiana M.

Exceptional service, delicious food, large portions, traditional decor, clean restaurant and restrooms! Just the perfect combination of factors to attract us back. Totally recommended!

Pancake (1)
Desiree M.

What a GEM! Everything was AMAZING!!!! The crispy bacon get a side you won't regret it, it's so flavorful and thick. I had two of the tacos and they were to die for! Taco Campechano! A whole new level of taco for me. I would come here just for the tacos. That cheese crust makes it so different and unique! Taco de Pallo! Equally as good but the first one was different and yummy. The pancake OMG come here if your craving pancakes just do it! They are the size of the plate, one is enough!

Chile Asado
Hannah J.

I've been here a few times because I am always down for breakfast all-day. Their drinks are super delicious and fun! I always get their tres leches plate, it comes with so much food, and it's always cooked the same way, which is just right for me. The vibes inside are hip and a bit of street art, will be back at Kikey's!

I was born and raised in Georgia so maybe that's why the taste is so bland. The meatloaf just tasted burnt and like they dumped half the container of pepper in it. The Mac N cheese was decent. They do give generous portion sizes. My son's shrimp Po boy was decent. The lettuse was not limp or wilted. My daughter's bidcuits and gravy looked flavorful but I've had jar gravy that had more flavor. The biscuits were moist. The hash brown were not crispy at all just soggy. I sent the meatloaf back requesting that it be removed from my bill. I took one small fork full to taste it. My daughters captain platter has a burnt flavor as well according to her. I did not try hers. If you want food that is bursting with flavor like true southern food, go somewhere else. But if all you care about is polite service and generous portions then this is the place for you.

I mean check my pics. My only gripe and the only reason i did not give 5 stars .... the food was not seasoned. Not a spec of salt or spice. No pepper, no garlic powder, no onion powder, no cayenne. We were very confused lol I'm hoping it was a fluke because everything about this place is great . Especially the people who run it. So we will be back and hopefully the food will be seasoned because thats literally the only negative i have to say.

She was helpful and giving us recommendations. The place itself is nicely decorated and clean. It was not busy when we got there, but when we left, the seating area was filling up. A nice detail is that they have coat hanger/purse hanger at each table. The food! I'm a chilaquiles fan and these were delicious! Chips were not soggy but crunchy and not shy on the sauce- I am a sauce girl so this made my tummy happy. The bottled juices were different, but actually liked it! The horchata drink was not too sweet and nice that i was able to take it with me when I couldn't finish. My friend thought the burrito was good.

I'll never understand why food is so overpriced here in WA. Perhaps because they know people will still pay for it. SMH. The staff were nice and I appreciated the complementary bunuelos while we waited for our food. They also checked in on us mid meal, that was nice. However the food did not stand out at all. We wanted to like this place, we really did. We were hoping to finally finding a piece of home, sadly we were disappointed. The chilaquiles divorciados everyone raved about were mushy and drenched in chile. The red chile tasted like a canned chile and the green was overbearing and too spicy. The cafe de olla had a strange taste to it, definitely not like the cafes back home. I assume it was either Anise or Cloves. Either way the taste was strong and it instantly lost us then. Lastly their "bottled" Horchata (this bothered me so much. Any true athletic Mexican restaurant should not be bothered with gentrification and "bottling" their drinks. Terrible and a slap in the face!) the cinnamon was again overbearing. Let's just say even my children didn't like it. It's hard to mess up Horchata, in this case the store bought stuff would have tasted better. At $6+ a bottle, HUGE miss for us. I'd have to say the best part was probably their chorizo burritos. The chorizo was interesting looking, I've never seen anything like it. The consistency of the meat resembled carbs asada and threw us for a loop when we saw it. Nevertheless that and their green salsa on the side, were the best part of the experience. We may give this place another try, but it would be for their burritos and salsa only!

Only downside - I think their space is somewhat awkward for seating and overall flow. However they are doing what they can with what they have so it's not a knock on them per se, just putting it out there that the flow is a little off especially when busy.

The biscuit was good but I wish they gave you the option to warm it up. The rice krispie s'mores was not too sweet and the density was just right.

I wish the service was more consistent. The first cashier seemed upset and wasn't very friendly. The second when I ordered coffee was much more pleasant.
