    This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Seattle! I'm from the south where there's a lot of…read moreauthentic Mexican restaurants ran by Mexican families, and this place tastes just like home. The service is always excellent (shout to Martín, he always takes care of us!), and the ambiance is cozy and fun. Large portions for a fair price, and the margaritas HITTTT. Best frozen margs and queso! If you're looking for upscale, gentrified Mexican food, this isn't the place for you. But if you're looking for cozy vibes with authentic food and strong drinks, this is the place :)

    We walked right into the bar and snagged a table. The restaurant didn't appear to be busy, but the…read morebar was empty. The bartender was quick to bring us chips, salsa and menus. After giving us a few minutes, he came back and took drink orders. Upon delivery, he asked if we were ready to order. We were. The menu is large in size, bright in colors and offers familiar items. The pricing appears to be reasonable and for the most part, is. When the food is delivered, it is also bright in colors, especially with the contrasting colors of shredded lettuce, yellow cheese, red tomatoes, guacamole and sour cream. If we stopped there, I could easily give 5 stars. But we come to eat, and that counts a lot toward the score. I got a combination that came with a Enchilada (I got cheese), Taco (I got hard shell Chile Verde), Tostada (seasoned ground beef) and Chile Relleno. I also paid $4.50 to make my meal "deluxe". That adds one small scoop each of guacamole and sour cream. The Taco was okay but the pork was on the dry side and lacking any fat. The Enchilada was also okay but nothing special. The Tostada was the best item on my plate with the crispy corn tortilla, well-seasoned ground beef and a ton of lettuce, some cheese and diced tomatoes. This is where most of my guac and sour cream got used. Some old timers might remember Taco Bell's Beefy Tostada from days long ago. This was like an upgraded version of that. The Chile Relleno was terrible. Dry, hard cheese, no egg flavor, this made me think of something I might get out of the freezer and put in the microwave. My meal also came with beans and rice. She got a Chile Verde Burrito with a Chile Relleno, no beans, no rice. Her feeling on the Chile Relleno was the same as mine. She ate 1/4 of her burrito and stopped. Inside appeared to be nothing but dry Chile Verde. On top was guac and sour cream. Our friends each got a Tostada. She got Chile Verde and managed to finish 1/2. He got Chicken and finished his meal. For drinks, one of us got a beer, two of us got Diet Pepsi and one got Ice Water. I was not offered a refill on my drink. The portions are reasonable large, but the value is not there. Flavors are not strong. Service was mostly okay but that alone can't carry the meal. My wife and I would not return.
