Got the asada fries that were not as filling, but at a reasonable price point. Staff took us in even though they were getting ready to clean up, but they made clear which table booths to sit at while they carried out with that cleaning duty. Love the mariachi music in the background and the bright lights that really woke you up. We needed that as we were about to drive back home almost an hour more. I like that the bathroom is big, too. Very spacious restaurant and would go here again if I need a place that opens late for decompression from a high-energy event

The people working the counter always help you decide what you'd like to eat, offer upgrades, and make sure you're ordering your food to your liking.

This time we tried the salad with extra shrimp and it was very delicious!! Head next door to Mercado Latino for some drinks and or snacks and fruits. They have an excellent selection as well.

Despite the small line, there was barely any wait. There's a small table with a few stools if you'd like to eat outside, but I'd say this is mainly a takeout place.

I had written a review on the original location. I heard they sold the place. We stopped by here…read moreafter many years of being away... and wishing, missing this food badly. This is the best burrito in all of Tacoma/Lakewood!!! I tell everyone to try them. People don't know what they are missing, because they are just getting pupusas. Who would think they would have great burritos. So, these are not like any other burritos, because they are not Mexican. They use their delicious black beans, their white rice with a few little veg, sour cream, onions, cilantro, you can get really good chile sauce if you want it spicy. The sauce is so good. No cheese... can you believe it? Cheese is not even needed. You can get chicken or carne asada, or like we got, no meat and they will add avocado slices. I really wanted no meat, and platano frito added. This is what we used to get, and it's great. They should add a no meat option to the menu, and also the platano option. Everyone that loves unique delicious burritos, come check this place out. The guy that took my order was friendly, and even made our burrito half no cilantro. Thanks! They get busy.

I ordered to-go, and I am genuinely surprised that they do not have more condiments available, especially with the salsa as I got 4 pupusas. No wet wipe, which may be asking for a lot, but at least make it up with the paper napkins. I love that it is near base, but u might as well order to eat-in the restaurant. That way u get all that u need. Better inspection on my end could have been done, but just :o at the...stinginess. That sounds like a harsh word, I know, but how else do I describe it...?

1/2 I really wanted…read moreto like this place, but unfortunately my experience was pretty disappointing. I ordered the pozole, which was listed on the menu at around $18. When I was rung up, the price was significantly higher than what I expected. With a 15% tip, my total for the one bowl came out to around $30. The price difference between the menu and what I was actually charged was definitely something that stood out to me. Unfortunately, the food itself didn't make up for the price. The pozole was extremely bland and needed salt and seasoning. The broth had very little flavor, and there wasn't much hominy in the bowl either. It was mostly broth with a few pieces of meat. I ended up having to season it myself just to make it enjoyable. The service was also pretty underwhelming. Our server wasn't very attentive, and overall it just didn't feel like the level of service I'd expect. The atmosphere was pretty typical for a Mexican restaurant, but nothing particularly stood out. Overall, I'd give my experience about 2 1/2 stars. The biggest issues for me were the unexpected price difference, bland food, small amount of ingredients, and lack of attentive service. Maybe other menu items are better, but based on my experience with the pozole, I will not be returning.

Doing an update after not being in Moctezuma's for a long time…read more Someone gave me the impression that the food wasn't as good as it used to be and one of the last times I was here the wait to get seated was quite long. It's good that they are doing so well however. The parking lot always looks full. My last visit here was after a planned meal stop somewhere else fell through. I still wanted supper and I was in the vicinity and decided if I could get into Moctezuma's. I got in with ease (there was just me) and seated right away. I haven't had a taco salad in I don't know how long so I ordered one of those. I also got a small sized Spicy Cucumber Margarita. The taco salad was good, very satisfying as well as the chips and salsa that came along with it. The Margarita was great, very refreshing with the cucumber and spiciness blending together nicely. Service was prompt and friendly. I still have a good impression with what I had for this place from meals of several years ago and if you do precise timing (like early supper arrival time (4:30-5 p.m.) or lunch you are more than likely to find seating easier.

Our server was attentive and kind, and the food was timely and hot! Overall the flavors were not the best thing I've ever had. Overall, it was bland and under-seasoned by quite a bit. The sauces do much of the work here, making the food ok, but not something I'd crave enough to go out of my way for it. We really wanted to love this place, and we will likely come back and try again, because every restaurant has off days and it may have just been the dish I ordered. Looking forward to trying it again soon, but until then, 3 stars for ambiance and service... hope to add more stars the next time we visit!
