This restaurant was a perfect stop on the way in from Canada before hitting the hotel. The service was spectacular. The food was delicious, quesabirria for the win, delicious and only $8.50 for 2. And the prices overall... omg, fed a family of four with fountain drinks for under $50 including tip. read more

We arrived just before lunch rush and the place was full. We put in our order but had to wait for a table to open up. Good sign! The menudo was quite excellent. Very flavorful broth with tons of tripe. However this was the second place that it was served without hominy. I wonder if that's a "thing" now. I prefer having it with hominy but it was still very good. They offered both a green and red salsa which were both quite good too. I would definitely come back again. I too would give this dish an 8. Thus far this is the best menudo I've had in Washington state. read more

$25 for 3 orders of tacos. Amazing. Plenty of interior seating, and staff are super quick & efficient. We only had to wait a few minutes before getting our tacos (@9pm). Quality of tacos are also great. We love stopping here while in Burlington. They are also friendly with kids. My favorite are the quesabirria, which come with the au jus on the side. read more

So glad the hotel desk clerk told us about this place! It was so good we came back 2 nights later. Service is quick; you order at the counter and they bring it to you. Prices are so reasonable $2.25 a taco and they have about 12 meat choices. Excellent choice for a quick meal. read more

If I could rate a zero I would the customer service was OK until there was an error on their part not only did they serve the mail wrong but when we try to correct it, there was a whole interrogation on it instead of just fixing it with multiple coworkers with the same attitude said don't touch me as if I wanted to maybe she should have her ears and be more attentive to her customers, and I wouldn't have to accidentally tap her read more

Still awesome. 4 tacos, rice and beans still under $20 with tax and tip. I don't even bother with anything besides the Chicharron tacos anymore. I didn't really need 4, 3 would have been perfect for dinner. The crispy, chewy pork with the salsas are just perfect bites. read more

Delicious tacos and other Mexican favorites. My favorite meat is the chorizo, which comes in big chunks and has a crisp to it that you won't find at most other places. Homemade hot sauces are great. Service is a walk-up counter, take a number and they deliver to your table. Ambiance is good - albeit a bit loud when it's busy. Plenty of seating on the heated, semi-enclosed outdoor patio. Parking can be a challenge due to this location's popularity. NOTE: This location is NOT a food truck, although Tacos Tecalitlan does operate several food trucks in the area. This is sit-down dining or grab-and-go. read more

Fast service, wonderful workers. The ambiance was lively and authentic in a way that really just sells the experience. The food, though. Wow. I got it to go but was really hungry so I sat down and inhaled the tacos... for 2$ they are genuinely unbeatable. Ive never had such yummy tacos. I got a pork chalupa and ate that in the car soon after I left and it was 4$, fried, and delicious. You absolutely have to try this place if you want real Mexican food. I should have gone sooner. read more

What a surprise!!!!! If you're looking for a good cheap meal while cruising i5, this is the spot for you. I had the mullitas plate with Adobada and carnitas. The adobada incredibly seasoned and juicy, and the Carnitas was perfectly cooked and soft, but still tender. $11 for the plate of two with rice and beans. read more

We got here just before the lunch rush and it was so good! Staff were very friendly and let us take our time to order. Food took about 20 minutes to get to us but it was worth it! Very decently priced. Recommend getting there before lunch & dinner rushes so you can grab a seat inside or out on their heated patio. Will definitely be back read more

Service, great. Ambiance, cute. Food, wow! I wanted to try it all but I had to be realistic . I was told about this place from my co-worker. We live in Seattle and I've tried different places in Renton, Kent and Burien and I have to say the selection/flavors of the meat isn't easy to find all at one spot. They had quite a bit to offer. My friend did the quesabirria tacos that had 2 plus the consome and I chose 3 tacos (chicharron, cabeza and lengua). I couldn't pick a favorite because they all were amazing. They need to open one of these closer to Seattle like Lynnwood or Shoreline. This place will always be a rest stop for me anytime I'm driving up north! read more

I stopped by here when I was passing by with my husband. We were a little hungry and wanted to eat lightly. The parking lot is located on the premises of the store, so there are many people coming and going. I ordered two each of the recommended pork taco and beef taco in the store. Quick service and easy menu here. You can get water in self-service area. The interior of the store is casual and lively. And the Tacos we ordered was delicious, especially the pork and so reasonable prices here. Highly recommend here. read more

10/10 stars! My goodness, talk about authentic Mexican food. This hit so many of my spots I came back here a total of three times in under 24 hours while I was in the area. I tried their chicken torta, adobada sope, chicken and adobada tacos, and agua de Jamaica. ALL OF IT was heaven. And the prices are the cheapest I've seen anywhere. They are extremely fast, and they have perfect salsa verde you can add to your food. 10/10 this is amazing! read more

A must try! This place did not disappoint at all. Food was awesome, generous amount of food for the price you pay. Had a very good selection of meat to choose from, various ways to eat the meat -- from tacos, burritos, with rice and beans, sandwiches to name a few. The service was great. The lady was friendly and attentive. There was a time lots of people entered and they immediately opened another counter to service them The restaurant is very neatly arranged, very clean and had lots of chairs and tables for customers. read more

I always have to stop here on my way to Anacortes because I love their tacos! The best street taco I've had in Washington. I always get their asada tacos and they never let me down. The tacos are consistently amazing and packed with flavor. I love both of the sauces they provide too. They can get busy so if you're in a rush, I recommend to place an order ahead. You can order at a window or go inside the restaurant. They have some candy and snacks sold inside the restaurant as well. They have a decent amount of indoor seating as well as a covered area. If you're passing through Burlington, stop here! read more

Crazy good meat options for your tacos. Hubby said the stand outs were the birria de res because it is super flavorful and moist. He liked the shrimp too. The only recommendation he made is to have the tortilla a little more browned. I loved my adobada (marinated pork) because it was grilled more and gave it a nice crispiness and char but it does mean it becomes chewier and drier. I used the lime and green sauce to make up for it and was very pleased. I enjoyed the carnitas and chicken too. Normally I drown my tacos with sauce but with these tacos you don't need to. Simple but good service. We were met at the register by a friendly smile and greeting. Followed by quick food delivery by a friendly male server. Even the patrons were nice, friendly and courteous. Another patron got up to leave and it was quite cute, he helped his girlfriend/wife? Put her coat on. Next he gave a head nod to another male guest. As he walked out he spoke loudly thanking the staff for the good food. Another family walked in and I got a smile from the female mom sitting down at her table. Her husband asked if he could borrow the sauces from a different table. All in all, a nice environment to be eating in. read more

This is my favorite taco place. Ever. Food is always a ten out of ten. Prices are so good. The service is always great. Everything is always so clean. There's always a good amount of people. Over the summer the patio is always filled with people and good energy! read more

It has been two years since I was here last, but it's much busier than it was then especially when school is open. The tacos were great. The torta I had was one of the better ones I've had. The pricing is very reasonable. Ambiance can be noisy when the HS students are having lunch. So come after 1:30. Will be back read more

Excellent food! Great service, and their seating is super cozy and western. We always get their carne asada tacos ‍

Sadly, must leave a well deserved 1 star review. Food is fine normally and I have been a customer for years. However, I ordered online (as I always do) for the food truck in Anacortes. My order was accepted, my credit card was charged. It said order ready in 20 minutes. I drove to the truck and to my surprise, it WAS NOT THERE! Called and they said "oh ya, they left early". No apologies. No explanation. Could not refund until the next day when I was ASSURED I would be contacted. Surprise! No contact the next day. When I called, they were rude and unhelpful. This is criminal behavior and obviously horrible business practice. I assure you I am not done dealing with this. So disappointed. read more

Solid 4.5 taco spot! I came based off a recommendation from a friend who travels from SEA and VAN. All items were super flavorful and we even got stuff to go for the next day. This taco spot was even better than some Seattle places and were comparable to LA shops. Will definitely be back - may even consider making the drive up from Seattle just for good tacos. read more

A great Mexican food pitstop while driving on I-5. We discovered this place while hungry and tired heading back from a Canada trip, and it is a gem. The tacos were generously topped with meats and greens (we wished there were more onions though) and their asada fries were made so well. The asada fries tasted oddly fresh and light with the juicy tomato topping and minimally oily fries. I believe there was also a bit of cotija cheese sprinkled on top. We loved the way they prepared it. Inside there's lots of seating and even an enclosed patio area. Definitely a must stop whenever we're heading in that direction. read more

Tacos are smaller but delicious none the less. Recommend to get a couple more than your usual order to fill up. Eating the food there is the way to go. We've ordered to go a couple times and every time, there was either something wrong or missing with our order. However having eaten at the restaurant countless time, we have never had any problems. It does get busy at times where both indoor and outdoor spaces fill up quickly. Luckily, food comes out relatively quick so people flow in and out at a good pace. Def recommend their chicharon, Al pastor, and fish tacos above the other meats. read more

On our way to our campsite at Deception Pass State Park, we stopped by this delightful taco place recommended by one of my coworkers. Tacos Tecalitlan has both indoor and outdoor seating areas with plenty of parking. Very open and well ventilated outdoor area and the indoor area was nicely air conditioned. Staff were friendly and smiles were freely given. Love it. I am not hugely into Mexican food in general and I certainly cannot claim to know a lot about it, either. All I know is that when I go to California, my friends there take me to amazing Mexican food places and their tacos are absolutely amazing. When I had tacos here, I almost have that feeling of being California. Their taco selections vary in lots of variety of protein choices and they were wonderfully savory. We now have our permanent stop on our way to Deception Pass! read more

Really nice place to grab a bite on the way to/from Bellingham as we do from time to time Pretty good tacos, reasonable prices in a world where almost every place is charging so much now. I'd pass on the birirra tacos and get normal ones. Also the kids quesadilla has toooooo much cheese, almost makes it inedible. nice to have outdoor seating available but ruined by a parade of crappy diesel f250s driving by read more

Great flavor, clean space, and friendly staff. My family and I were in the area for a soccer tournament and discovered this place and we're very happy we did. We ordered one platter each and was not disappointed with anything. The portions are good and everything we got was really good. Food came out relatively quickly as well. We also noticed there was a walk up window which we didn't use but I assume getting food to go would still be good. The space seemed new and there are both indoor and outdoor seating. Will definitely be coming back here. read more

I got the chicharonnes burrito here and it was for the most part good. I enjoyed the generous portions for what you get for $7, which is a very satisfying meal. What I wasn't a fan of was they add everything to the burrito, including pickled jalapeños, which did not mesh too well with the rest of the burrito. For a no thrills, quick eat, this is still pretty solid. read more

Stopped into Tacos Tecalitlan for lunch on a busy Saturday. This is their brick and mortar headquarters, but they also run two food trucks. We tried a bunch of tacos ($1.95 each) along with a quesi-birria ($7.50). Everything was delicious. Favourite of the tacos was the asada. The consome was fantastic and perfectly complimented the birria tacos. Wish we had $2 tacos back home. read more

Tacos Tecalitlan - Tacos ($1.95 each) and quesi-birria ($7.50) - Food Trucks Near Me - Burlington, Washington

Was super excited to check out Tacos Tecalitlan for their $1.95 USD tacos. They have two other locations (Bellingham and Anacortes), both of which are food trucks. We dropped in on a packed Saturday for lunch (12:15pm). There's a takeout window right out front, otherwise order and pay first then grab a table. Menu consists of taco, torta, burrito, quesi-birria, quesadilla, sopes, gorditas, tostadas, mulitas, tamales, flautas and soups. Two salsas are provided on the table (a mild salsa verde and fiery, smoky salsa roja). - Agua de jamaica ($4.00 USD large) - refreshing with a touch of lime and cinnamon notes. - Quesi-birria ($7.50 USD) - consome was delicious on its own, as was the birria meat. Cheese was mild. Would get this baby again. - 7x Tacos ($1.95 USD) - asada (beef), adobada (marinated pork), lengua (tongue), cabeza (cheek), carnitas (steamed pork), chorizo (pork sausage) and birria de res (beef stew). Lengua was a little pricier (~$2.95 USD). Best were the beef, marinated pork and pork sausage. The beef tongue was tender (but bland), steamed pork slightly salty and beef stew a touch dry. Can't beat the $1.95 USD price for tacos! Will be back for more TT eats soon. 4.5 stars. read more

Food was amazing, service great as well!! Nice cozy little spot to grab a bite. Highly recommend if you're anywhere close!!!

Makes sense the burritos are $7. Not good. Asada was salty as hell and badly flavored, fish burrito had sad little chunks/pieces of fish and that has to be the worst red salsa I've ever had. As someone from Los Angeles, this place doesn't come close. Makes sense it's in Burlington WA and these customers seem to care more about the cheap price. Dont fully blame them. read more

One of the best Mexican restaurants I have been to! Also the best birria tacos I've ever had.

Loooong line when we got here. But moved efficiently. Took time to get our food but it was worth the wait. Barria tacos were on point. Chips and pico were nice and fresh. Chicken burrito and chicken quesadillas were good too. The only common was on the pozole. Hubs did not love the bones in the soup meat. Otherwise all good. Both indoor and outdoor seating and super casual and chill. read more
