I'm surprised I haven't gotten to review this place; the first time I came here to eat was 3 or so…read moreyears ago; this place is too good to pass up! For this visit I only did takeout, though I did get a chance to go inside with my friends as we were waiting for our orders. It's bright and extremely casual inside with ample seating, though nearly everyone that came in did takeout like we did. And there were people constantly coming in and out for the food here! Staff was quick in prepping everything and asking if we wanted extra sauce on the side. I got their carnitas plate, and as a takeout portions are huge here! Meat was flavorful, tender and savory; the jalapeños added a nice spice to the dish; and the extra sauces on the side added even more spice onto it that I enjoyed. The dish was wrapped well in a disposable aluminum plate and covered as well. This went for all of our orders, which included the burrito plate and taco salad. This place is easily one I'd come back to for Mexican food at a great price and quality!

The only disappointment was no salsa with the chips we ordered...it came with beans. Not sure if that was a mistake. Can't wait to go back to try other food items

AMAZING FIRST EXPERIENCE!!…read more Came here on a Saturday at 3:15 pm and it was EMPTY! Walked right on in and sat immediately. I'm sure the place is more lively with more etíope, but it was still pleasant to sit and eat with some background music playing. Food was absolutely delicious! It's a bit on the pricey side but you will definitely leave full and satisfied. I ordered the Pollito Pibil and my boyfriend ordered the Lechon Congri. We CLEARED our plates. We also ordered the Street Corn appetizer which was very tasty. Service was quick as well with be dry attentive staff. We were in and out in less than an hour. Definitely recommend trying this place out!

Came here with a friend during the week after our first dining choice was closed. It was a whim we…read morefollowed through on and initially my friend was uncertain when we entered because there was only one person sitting there, no one else in sight, and the space was dimly lit. But just as I was convincing her to give it a moment the staff came out from the back with orders, saw us, and we were quickly seated by the window. The space has been converted and feels that way, like the fingerprints of the previous tenant has not been erased. The menu is extensive with all the typical dishes we see in Mexican restaurants with very reasonable costs. They offer a few alcoholic drinks including margaritas, which I found to be splendid and perfectly balanced. The food also was tasty. I ate the enchiladas especial which seemed like fairly typical enchiladas and I mean that in the best of ways. The service also was great. Our waitress checked in on us often, was super polite and friendly, and was prompt with our bill. All in all a wonderful lunch!

First time here and came in on Sunday. The place was full due to the weekend buffet…read more The wife ordered cafe de olla that was watered down, no flavor. I ordered a mimosa that was mostly OJ. I didn't take a picture. I had machaca, the flavor was ok but the food wasn't hot. Wife had huevos rancheros which she said they were ok. The service was bad. I had to get up to get my tortillas from the buffet isle. Waitress never came back to check on us after bringing our food. I had to get up to ask for my tab and pay at the counter. Their focus on the weekend was obvious, they focus on their buffet. I'll be trying other places near by. This is definitely not the place for me.

One of…read moretheir biggest challenges to be honest is the left turn if you were coming down the hill from Fred Meyer towards the hospital. My advice would be to turn at the red light right by Fred Meyer and then exit the parking lot and come in here via the side entrance. They did a nice job refurbishing the interior and exterior. Interior was spotless and well-maintained. Post mix beverage dispensary is available in the lobby and they have a nice salsa bar with many different options. I ordered the California combination with beef burrito and taco. Perfect size portions accompanied by beans and rice. Good overall experience and value for the money

I accidentally turned to early, but decided to park and walk there. Plenty of parking at the location and definitely tons of seating inside. Clean and bright, makes it welcoming when you're having lunch. I had the carne asada burrito and my boyfriend had the California burrito. Their salsa bar was stocked with options of mild-hot salsa and I love it! I wished they had cilantro, but the picked carrots and jalapenos were good enough. I truly enjoyed the carne asada burrito. The flavor was great and it was full of meat! Wish it was a bit hotter. On the other hand, my boyfriend's burrito was extremely hot! I think it was the cheese? He enjoyed it. Would totally come back!

Cheese tacos -- 9/10. Super flavorful with lots of meat and cheese! I wish there was a little more onions and cilantro, but it was good either way.

We came here one evening since the original taco place we were going to go to wasn't open. We…read moreordered at the food counter inside and they didn't have 2-3 of the meats we had wanted so we picked a few different ones last minute. The tacos were made to order and they had sauces and containers we could fill on our own on the side. We also appreciated that we would ask for the onions to be put on the side. The tacos were pretty good, the only down side was that the chicken was a little dry and lacking flavor. Otherwise, the other meats were tasty.

Shortly after, a very kind gentleman brought us waters along with chips and salsa, which was appreciated. The chips were pretty standard Mexican restaurant chips--not my favorite. They tasted slightly greasy, even though they didn't appear to be. The salsa had good flavor but was quite thin. Our waitress greeted us within a reasonable amount of time, took our drink order, and returned with our drinks to take our food order. Since it was our first visit, we tried a few different items. I ordered the steak fajitas, which were flavorful and came with a generous amount of onions and peppers, many with a nice char (which I loved). The steak was tender and well seasoned. I do wish they offered the option to mix multiple proteins. I also ordered a ground beef hard-shell taco on the side, and it was great--the shell didn't taste stale like you often find at many Mexican restaurants. My dining partner enjoyed his meal as well. The only downside was the manager or owner standing near the computer station by the entrance for much of our visit, frequently watching the dining room. Since we were one of the first few tables, it felt a bit uncomfortable at times, even though I'm sure it wasn't intentional. Overall, this has quickly earned a top-two spot for Mexican restaurants in Renton for us. We'll definitely be back.
