    My husband wanted me to try this place, because he thinks the tacos are great, despite their steep prices. Indeed, prices are VERY bougie for the actual place/location, however the quality of the meats, taste and size/portions can be excused. My only con, like I said, is the actual building itself. It has limited, wobbly-floored seating, so it makes sitting down, being handicapped etc tricky. Service was quick, so no issue there. Overall, I do recommend, just know it's spendy and seating can be tricky.

    Three tacos:  carne asada, pollo asado, and al pastor w/ a slice of pineapple.  Garnish, tortilla chips, etc

    Friendly staff and quick service The food was delicious; they make their own tortillas for tacos & chips While we waited for our orders, we served ourselves with fixings (they provided containers for them): pico de gallo, freshly julienned cabbage, pickled red onions, sauces (mild, medium & HOT), guacamole, sliced lime, and home-made tortilla chips We'll be back for tacos; no burritos on the menu! The restaurant on Auburn Way North is fairly new and clean. If you like tacos, you gotta try this place; but slow down - you might miss the driveway!

    This place has bomb carne asada tacos yo! Pay at the counter, grab your toppings at the salsa bar. Take a seat and they will come thru with the goods!! It's a quick lunch spot so nothing fancy here. But they have bombaz Dubai chocolate strawberry!

    Ohmygoodness10's across the board, I'd come back 1000x, my husband and I loved everything we tried! What we ordered: -Bone Marrow & Asada Tacos: buttery, rich, well seasoned, and their flour tortillas are made in house! -Cali Burrito: sooooo filling! perfect combination of meat, rice, beans and avocado, i mean what's not to love? -Carne Asada Plate: simple yet well seasoned, with huge portions -Stawberry Horchata: bomb. that's it. -Coconut Horchata: if you love coconut (like me), double bomb. -Dubai Strawberries: perfect sweet treat for the end of a heavy, filling meal, real light on the tummy On top of the food being amazing, the customer service was unbeatable! The young lady taking our order was very sweet and welcoming. She even asked if she could get our reaction to trying the food on video, she came to us super respectfully, and we were happy to give our honest review Thank you so much and we look forward to coming back soon!

    The food here was great. My wife pork taco. I had a steak taco they both had what seemed to be 5 to 6 ounces of meat on them. What was a little strange is high.Normally will have two sometimes three tacos for dinner. This time i only needed the one steak taco to fill up.

    The price is crazy for what I got. I paid for four tacos and they were extremely flavorless. The…read moremeat needed salt, the onion, and the cilantro were very much lacking in flavor. I was asked if I wanted my grilled onion and grilled jalapeño I said yes. When I got the small bag with the small plate, I instantly knew I made a mistake. Each taco was greedily filled. I had two radish shavings cut in half. There were two dry pieces of carrot and that onion and jalapeño that I mentioned.. yeah, I got half of a jalapeño sautéed with maybe about eight pieces of onion all over the tacos.. I don't know who called this place authentic but I am highly disappointed.. The only thing that presented any equality was the paper bag and the sturdy paper plate that the tacos came on. Lastly, I wanna end my review with another note : the slices of lime that I received were so thin that was actually the most diabolical part of the order. These were the thinness slices of lime I have ever received in my entire life . It was almost insulting .

    I honestly hate writing negative reviews and always try to give places a second try. Maybe my…read moreexperience was just bad overall as I ordered via DoorDash instead of in person so there should not be any room for error. Pastor Tacos - I was really looking forward to some amazing tacos. I'll admit that the presentation is 10/10 for sure and they look amazing but do not taste as great as they look. The pastor tacos I ordered had onion, tomato, and no pineapple in them nor do I think the meat was pastor (maybe it was the wrong tacos entirely) they were way too sweet and I don't think I'll be ordering those again. Rice & Beans - this should be called rice and chili because the beans were not your typical refried beans that you usually get. Instead they were a very sweet tasting chili with cheddar cheese all over the top. Maybe they ran out of refried beans? My roommate ate the tortas and flour tacos that did not come with the free soda as described so I cannot speak to those dishes. Overall I have had way better experiences at other food truck locations that sell the same items and am a little upset that the presentation of the items don't live up to their flavor unfortunately for me.

    This was our first visit back to La Rioja since the ownership changed, and we had a fabulous meal!…read moreLa Rioja has been one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, and they still create some of the tastiest dishes we've had in the region! The atmosphere of the restaurant has changed just a little, but the cooks are the same and the food is delicious. La Rioja is a little different from most local Mexican Family restaurants in that the dishes are a bit more up-scale and refined, with an emphasis on finer cuts of grilled steak and delicious sauces. You will not see ground beef used here - the tacos come with grilled strip cuts, and they offer a range of steaks which are delicious, served with an excellent chimichurri, on a sizzling stone, with ample sides. Portions are large! My chili rellenos were well prepared, sauced, and twice what I could eat. There were left-overs for everyone in our group! The horchatas were delicious. The food was well seasoned. The dishes came with cilantro and onion, pico de gallo, salsa, or habanero sauce if you wanted it. I did, and it was potent but perfect. The desert custard was talked about all the way home! Service was excellent. Francisco was delightful, attentive and made sure we were getting anything we wanted. If there was a hiccup after the change of ownership, it looks like it has been fixed things nicely. We loved all of our meals and can't wait to go back. The menu is a considerable step up from the typical "taco, enchilada, fajita" fare, but still robust and delicious. With the emphasis on steak cuts and great meat dishes it may be more expensive than many typical Mexican Restaurants but it is well worth it. We will be back!

    3.5 stars, but not quite 4…read more Pros - decorations are nice, the staff were nice and came across as warm, casual. They had a taco guy set up outside so we got tacos de carnitas, which were very good, and a mix of cabeza meats. The queso tasted good, and the steak marinade was different but good. Husband is hard to please with salsas, but he liked these ones. Horchata was great, but again, the price was exorbitant. Cons - a $6 coke and my husband's tacos being served on a random paper plate...prices are crazy for the area this restaurant is located at. I got the feeling that the restaurant was a fancy cover for a casual taco place, meaning fancy looking but the staff kept calling out to each other, kind of yelling, obviously not caring about the plating, etc. The queso fundido came with a random piece of tripa, which kind of grossed me out, but I understand cross contamination is bound to happen with an outside cooking station. The steak marinade reminded me of a rice/Asian marinade, so while it was good, it didn't quite fit with the Mexican cuisine for me. Also, I kept burping it up 2 days after, so clearly it didn't sit right with me. Husband felt they skimmed on the chorizo sausage, as his plate came with a piece of sausage, not a full one.

This was only $9.99 for the moment, not sure how long this special will last. But of course, we had to get extra rice, side of guacamole and sour cream! The chickens were seasoned well and all the sides just made it taste better!

We ordered the carne asada (no beans, extra rice), which was about $30. The portion was decent, but overall the flavor was just okay. I wouldn't necessarily call it authentic, but it works if you're looking for a quick and easy meal. They did ask how we wanted the meat cooked we requested medium but since the steak was cut thin, it ended up being cooked well done. The kids' meals were simple and come with a drink, which is convenient. However, the orange juice tasted off and was really sour like it was expired, so we asked to switch it to apple juice. Garcia's is a decent option for a casual meal in a spacious setting, but for the price especially the $30 carne asada.
