a food truck
Raymond M.

Small taco truck with very limited seating. $4 each for their "big" tacos. Carne asada was dry. Al pastor lacked in flavor. Carnitas are the best, flavorful and fatty!

Straightforward, no frills, yummy Mexican! Food truck is located along 15th in North Seattle, and there are park benches you can sit in to eat. One order taker with a warm smile, and just good food. Cash only, please. Generous servings! See you again soon!

Great food and service. Generous portion. Cash only. You can also call in your order for pickup.

Fish tacos
Mackenzie C.

Best fish tacos I have had in a while! We went on a Saturday night and ordered there, and food was ready in about 10 minutes for three of us. Everything tasted really good and fresh. Beans and rice were good. Good prices too - $13 for fish tacos with beans and rice! Note that they are cash only and there are no ATMs in their parking lot.

Al pastor tacos with a side of cilantro and onion

Street tacos are the way to go. Best deal is 6 tacos for $7.99 and comes with a free drink but horchata is extra. The al pastor comes with pineapple and juicy and fatty pork in a corn tortilla. You gotta have it with the red sauce for the kick. The green salsa isn't spicy at all. Pork carnitas was so moist and slow cooked. So good! Got some water which is standard. They do have one dish that is only available on the weekend...dish number 19. Will have to be back!

I'm so glad my mom decided to go a lonchera style place for lunch instead of a walk in-sit down restaurant. She stated these have more "sabor". We were visiting in Seattle for the day and stumbled upon Loxicha and were not disappointed one bit. We ordered the asada quesadillas and mulitas plate. Price was reasonable as it came with a beverage. Service was friendly and speedy. My mom complimented the Mexican rice (we are strong critics when it comes to the rice) and as well as the salsas. I will for sure return when I'm the city.

Chorizo, asada, carnitas, pastor. Beautiful.

I've been perpetually homesick for some LA/SD tacos since I've come to Seattle. This place is actually better than a lot of taco trucks I've been to in LA. I got the 4 street tacos for $6. This is a great deal on par with a lot of great taco Tuesdays I've been to. I got the asada, chorizo, pastor, chicken, and carnitas. All delicious. I was surprised at how flavorful the chicken is. One thing though, I did like the street tacos better than their regular tacos. It didn't have enough meat for the size of the tortilla. Still delicious, but I think ill stick to the street tacos. Their side of rice is also delicious and flavorful. I will report back when I try the burrito and the tlayuda. Apparently that ones only available on Saturdays. Both the red and green salsas are delicious. (The red's got a kick though, so be careful if you're sensitive to spicy).

The taco truck itself.

The marinated chicken is delicious! I had it in the street tacos. The Al Pastor also is tasty. Their rice is good, the refried beans (done with black beans) SUPER good. I usually pass on the beans but after tasting these I wanted more. I had a side of guacamole and it ALSO was fresh and perfect.

Look for the sign!
Tam T.

WOW! I've had a lot of tacos and have been incredibly disappointed by many Northwest tacos. Coming from LA I thought that I just lost the magic of tacos, but the tacos at Loxicha are just as good! 1. The pastor was my favorite. They slice very small pieces of pineapple into the taco in the taco and it goes great with the taco! 2. The asada and chorizo tacos were also excellent! 3. Beware of the red salsa! It is HOT! I love spicy food but I underestimated that red salsa. It left me panting and made me think that I was on Hot Ones with Sean Evans.

Great Mexican restaurant located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood in Seattle…read more Freshly made chips that come with a salsa roja that has a kick to it. Not bland like in other places. The ceviche was fresh and loved that they added shredded carrots for extra crunchiness. Tacos de carne were delicious, with the meat properly seasoned. Will definitely come back for more the next time we are in Seattle. Service was prompt and courteous.

I shared the mole enchiladas and lengua en salsa verde from this Mexican place…read more Of these, the lengua en salsa verde was my favorite. The beef tongue was cooked pretty well. Although it's naturally very fatty, the flavor and juiciness was retained after cooking - so they didn't screw it up. The salsa verde was a very nice accompaniment, as it tasted light, fresh, and a good complement to the fat of the meat. The mole enchiladas were less good. The mole sauce used leaned way too heavily on a sweet flavor - having little to no nuttiness whatsoever. It didn't taste anywhere close to some of the best moles I've had. The enchilada underneath was fine - nothing special. Both dishes came with beans and rice. Both were slightly above average, but nothing to write home about. I would say the portions were well sized in terms of overall amount, but the enchiladas were quite small compared to the beans and rice. With these two dishes we ended up around 28 per person. Overall, it's average Mexican food. 6.5/10

(those burritos are massive omg.) the mole enchiladas were SOOO good, as were the cashew poblano enchiladas. their sauces are so yummy and the presentation was on-point for both enchiladas. i also had a bite of my friend's carne en morita which is a slow cooked pork dish, and i was obsessed. the only thing i'd say to pass on would be the tacos. drinks were also great and had amazing presentation. i was very satisfied with my carajillo and my friend's passion fruit mojito was also very tasty (you could NOT taste the alc in it i swear) overall, koko's is a great spot if you're looking to dress up for a cute night out but also craving some tasty mexican food.

I've always wanted to check out D'la Santa. I always heard that Fri and Sats are always busy and…read morethey do not take reservations but walk-ins only. However, I just found out you can put your self on the waitlist on their website if it's busy. Sundays are the best days to go as it's not as busy and they were able to accommodate a big party. The restaurant also has a parking lot for people to park at as well, so that is a plus! The drink menu is very limited, they don't have a full bar. I ordered the skinny margarita and it was good. The food is authentic and if you are looking for authentic Mexican food, D'La Santa is the spot. We ordered the queso and the rajitas. Both appetizers are really good, came out super hot. Highly recommend. I got the carne asada plate and added an extra mini quesadilla. The carne is very seasoned so you have to eat it with the tortilla to balance out the saltiness. The service was fast and our waiter was very attentive.

We went on a Sunday and I was really hoping to try the tiramisu and bone marrow, but they weren't available at the date and time we went (shed a tear). Still, what we ordered completely made up for it. We had the torta ahogada, costillita en salsa roja, and moyetes dulces and I was honestly blown away. They absolutely nailed the tortas ahogadas. They were so good we ordered three more to go. I would gladly drive that hour and a half again just to eat here. I'll definitely be taking pictures next time! Also great service, they're super nice and attentive.

This place WOW-ed me. My fiance and I didn't make reservations the day before Valentine's Day and…read morethought we would just try our luck. So many of our regular spots had lines out the door, which was no surprise, but we ended up getting a table here. Figured Mexican food is hard to mess up. Started with drinks- THE BEST MARGARITA I HAVE EVER HAD. It was perfectly balanced, fresh, just perfect to me. My fiance got a horchata and loved it too. They have an option where you can try ALL of their dips for $20, which I couldn't resist. It was so fun, they had like 9 different ones! I got the shrimp tacos and they were so flavorful that I almost gasped. The creamy sauce, crunchy veggie toppers, smooth avocado, and perfectly cooked shrimp...just wow. I will be dreaming about this dish for years to come. I am a pescatarian and gluten free and there were TONS of options for me. They mostly use corn for everything, not flour. The staff was gracious and kind. They seemed a little understaffed but truly made the most of it and made every table feel attended to and special, which was so lovely. Really cool vibe- lots of art and special touches. A really cool place that I can't wait to recommend to friends.

Went back to Maiz Molino recently on a Sunday night for dinner w/ friends. I was disappointed to…read moresee that the menu has changed a lot (and not just seasonally, but just a completely different menu) since the last time I visited (maybe a year ago or so). Before it seemed like Maiz Molino was focusing on elevated, unique Mexican dishes (shown in the pics in my prior review such as short rib, and other sort of "fusion" dishes, and more seafood focused, etc.) Now, the menu seems way more generic and casual like enchiladas, tacos, quesadillas, tamales, etc. just offered w/ different proteins. They are still focusing on maiz but just a bit more generic in the preparation and offerings. Also, they had 2 separate menus which was a bit confusing. One is a generic all day menu and then another menu had brunch and dinner on it. It was around 5:30 p.m. but they were out of a particular steak dish that we were interested in. Service was friendly. We had enchiladas, a dip sampler (for appetizer) and Tlacoyos. Everything was fine but nothing really stood out, sadly. It wasn't very busy while we were there, so hoping that they are doing ok as a business. I would love to come back if they brought back the old menu w/ things that you cannot really find elsewhere, including the great cocktail menu and desserts that were offered previously.

This has been bookmarked for a while and the only regret I have is that I didn't get here sooner…read more This food is terrific, the vibe is hilarious, the servers are downright fantastic. Andrew (our server) introduced us to his sidekick, who was in training. Love that personal, hands on approach for a mew team member, and Sidekick did a great job in monitoring our table and replenishing water. Have to stop here and express my appreciation for Andrew and how he took the time to explain the philosophy and genuine team vibe of the restaurant. Oftentimes when a restaurant adds a flat 20% gratuity, you get the feeling this is not passed on to the servers. Not so here. He explained that it's shared among the servers, bar, and other staff, with only a bit retained by management, but even that finds its way into their wages. Terrific work environment and happy to see it. It definitely shows in the level of service. But we're here to eat. Didn't take a picture, but one of my dining companions ordered the burrito with red chili sauce and it was very good. Just the right amount of heat in the sauce. The Cantina celebrates Taco Tuesday, so I took advantage of this. You get the opportunity to try 5 different street tacos for the low price of $15. For another $4 you order it fully loaded which is a steal (guac, pickled onions, lettuce, giardano, crema, and another lovely sauce). Each of the tacos were really delicious and packed full of flavor. I especially enjoyed the cauliflower and the beef. Was surprised how much I liked the popcorn chicken - still juicy and not greasy in the least. Andrew treated us to a round of the hatch green chili. I was delighted because it was a dish I wanted to try. He described it perfectly: a little kick, but you can't stop eating it. He was right. A bowl of this in the winter with their cornbread (which I'm confident will be delicious) will preempt a winter cold. The sauces on the table are not to be ignored either. The green chili sauce was fruity with a little heat, the scorpion chili brings the heat, but their homemade chili oil is phenomenal. I could put this on everything. In short, the Cantina delivers. Excellent food, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and fun staff, and a cool vibe. I'll bet the cocktails will also be good. Definitely adding to the regular rotation!
