    Went for Friday night dinner and have done takeouts before. The place is in a very good location and near climate pledge arena. The interior gives a lot of Mexican vibes and they were decorating for cinco de mayo. I ordered enchiladas rancheros with Al pastor meat. That was not on the menu but they added it and charged extra for the selection(2$). The food was average and not much flavorful. They also offer chips. The service was fine we did not have to wait a lot to get seated.

    Food: 4 stars Service: 4 stars Customer Service: 4 stars Ambiance: 5 stars Parking: you have to pay, there is a small lot in side of the restaurant. 0-2 hours $4.50. However, we came on a Friday. Inside made me feel like I am in an authentic Mexican restaurant. I loved it. We came here yesterday, our first time. Another recommendation from a local. It fit as we love Mexican food. They have a lunch menu which ends at 3:00 pm and ee arrive at 2:45 pm perfect. It was not busy, so we were in and out quickly.. Our server was attentive to our needs. Our order: I ordered the two crispy chicken tacos with refried beans. My partner ordered a crispy beef taco with a enchilada and whole beans. The food came out fast. You get complimentary chips which were warm and good. I really liked the salsa. My Tacos were filled with chicken and they were good. However, when ordering crispy Tacos, I wish they would put them on a separate plate because my Tacos were soggy and feel apart, but they were still good. My partner said his food was good, but they also put the crispy taco on his plate and it was soggy. He ordered whole beans and they brought refried and made the correction quickly. I would come back whenever I am in town. It's nice to know a lunch menu and price is still honored with prices on everything are on a rise.

    Carne Asada
    Nikita S.

    My review is based solely on pick-up. I ordered the Carne Asada, which cost around $30 and included complimentary chips and tortillas. The portion size was generous and quite filling. I really enjoyed the beans and the seasoning on the carne, but I wasn't a fan of the rice or how chewy the meat was. It's possible the texture was affected by it being a pick-up order, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. Overall, it was a decent experience, and if I find myself craving Carne Asada again, I might consider ordering it.

    Very good family owned Mexican restaurant that is close to downtown Seattle. The nachos are particulary yummy and the tacos are great.

    The order that never got made :,(

    It really sucks that I have to write this review because I love their food so much. I place an order @ 4:45pm and set it for pick up at 5:50. I get there and it's busy, there is nobody present, and I had to wait for a waiter to spot me in order to tell them I have a pickup order. I tell them the name for the order and they told me they don't have it and that it must've been picked up for delivery. This doesn't make any sense because I placed an order for pickup, not delivery. I show them three different kinds of proof of purchase with my name, date, and the order with the restaurants address and everything. They told me they don't have it. I ask if they can make it cause I already paid and they told me I would have to wait as they have a long list of people that need to be sat for dinner. Look, I've worked in so many restaurants. I know what it's like to forget someone's order or to screw up like this especially when it's busy butThis is not the type of situation to be saying "you have to wait another hour for your food that you placed almost two hours ago." You send in that order on the fly and you make it for the customer who has been waiting much longer than any of the folks that arrived after to be sat for dinner. Yeah they made me wait for almost an hour. Folks around me were gossiping about the lack of organization this restaurant has and it made perfect sense. Once again I hate to be writing this but y'all lost a regular customer. Absolutely horrendous customer service. Delicious food but PLEASE do something about this. Thank god I got my money back At least.

    Ahhhh!

    We had a great visit - fajitas, tacos, burritos were all delicious. The drink selection is extensive, although we opted for margaritas and beer. The service was friendly and quick, although we were there on a night without a game nearby. There are lots of tables and a nice bar area, so I'd imagine even if it were busy, you could get in relatively quickly.

    Came here as we were in the area for an event at Climate Pledge Arena. No happy hour on Sundays. Tried some ceviche, some nachos, some flautas, taco salad, chile relleno,and some drinks. We liked everything that we had. The service was good. The ambiance was relaxed. Bar area can get a little cramped. All in all, it was a decent place--not the best, but was convenient at the time.

    Fajitas
    Diana C.

    I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately the review is predominantly based on the food. The service was fine and the inside was comfortable and colorful with plenty of TVs if you want to watch the game. But the food was really underwhelming. The nachos tasted more like store-bought ingredients and I didn't finish them. My partner wasn't a fan of his fajitas either and felt they lacked flavor. The mango marg he had was fine but the jalapeño marg I had was too sweet and flavorless and wasn't spicy enough. We wouldn't go back probably but the food does come out fast if you're looking for that.

    Mojitos and complimentary Chips And Salsa
    Kim-Nhi N.

    My wife and I came for dinner and were quickly seated. We snacked on the complimentary chips and salsa while we waited to order. Service was quick and the food was filling and delicious! I ordered the carne asada and my wife got the beef fajitas. We enjoyed minty fresh mojitos with our meal. The beef fajitas had a little bit of kick, which we really liked but might not be for spice-and-seasoning-sensitive folks. The restaurant was very spacious and was not too loud or quiet. Good value for your buck! Ended up leaving with leftovers!

    Not really a place to eat inasmuch as a place to just hang out, have drinks and - most importantly…read more- sing your heart out in karaoke no matter your skill level! My friends and I came here on a Wednesday night around 8pm and basically spent all of our time out in the front where the bar is since that's where open karaoke is. To queue songs to sing, you need to use a website called Healsonic to search for the song titles or artist names (you get to it using a QR code). You write down your initials, the song number of the song you want to sing and the song title, then pass it to someone behind the counter to the immediate left of the entrance. Song choices are not limited to just songs in English; you can choose songs from a variety of languages, and I got a chance to sing one of my favorite Cantonese oldies at one point. From past experiences singing karaoke here, there's always at least one mic out of the two passed around the crowd that isn't working properly and I end up singing louder than needed on that one mic. Regardless, my friends and I have always had a great time laughing, testing our vocals and just enjoying ourselves as if we were clubbing! I haven't yet been to any of their karaoke rooms, though I do hear prices for them are relatively high from others who've used them. One of my friends and I got their My Melody drink, which consists of coconut cream, pineapple and a pink sugar rim. Drink tasted kinda cheesy... literally. Must have been the cream but I downed the drink fast; it was refreshing for the environment (though a little heavy on the vocal cords) and not too sweet. It is on the pricier end, about $8 before tax. This is a well-run place regardless of the number of people that fill up open karaoke and the karaoke rooms themselves. Staff are friendly and acommodating especially with refilling water, following up on karaoke queuing mistakes and serving drinks. I see myself and my friends coming back here more often!

Only down side is prepare to spend a pretty penny.

    Would I return? Probably not…read more I went for a friend's birthday celebration, and compared to other karaoke spots I've been to, there were some noticeable drawbacks. First, the song selection system wasn't the easiest to use. The device, tucked into the corner of the room, had a lot going on--options to order food, search by language, browse top songs, etc.--which is great in theory, but I didn't find it very user-friendly. I searched for Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga, and Rosé, but none of them showed up. I must've done something wrong, but I couldn't figure it out, so I resorted to scrolling through artists alphabetically. Another issue was the lyrics on the screen-- the highlighted words didn't match up with the song, making it hard to sing along if you didn't already know the lyrics by heart. On top of that, there was no way to skip intros or interludes, so you had to sit through the full music video unless you skipped the song entirely. Also, no tambourine in the room? Is that not a thing anymore? I wanted to play along while my friends sang, but apparently, that wasn't an option. Lastly, the way our session ended felt abrupt. I'm used to getting a time check before our booking is up, but instead, we were just told to leave when our time was over. It wasn't a huge deal, but it did feel a little rushed. Overall, we had fun, but the experience could've been better.

They checked in throughout the evening and were so kind. The karaoke setup itself worked fine, but several of the songs didn't have the correct lyrics which made for a humorous mix up. The lyric videos were also very odd - playing on top of videos that sometimes had nothing to do with the song or artist. If you're like me a practiced your karaoke song down to a T, you'll find it funny when the words on screen aren't correct lol. That's my only suggestion for improvement! They have a small bar with bottled water and canned drinks (including pop).
