My go to Mexican food place in the North end of seattle. Always good food and you can believe the other reviews too I've never had a bad meal here. Today I try the appetizer plate with shrimpies rice guacamole and for taquitos and then I got an extra taco. They have quite a few bottled beers and drinks which are more expensive but hey, it's a restaurant and things in a restaurant cost money. Absolutely recommended. The parking lot is kind of tight so be careful. You can get to it best from Northwest 85th Street headed east turning into the driveway, OR headed west turn left onto 3rd and then immediately right into the driveway. read more

So good every time. Chips and salsa are delicious and I've loved every dish I've gotten here over the past 10 years!

I have frequented this establishment for over 10 years, and have never been disappointed. Very large menu to choose from, and this family owned business has kept the same staff for as long as I can remember. The carnitas tacos are amazing, and a large beer selection to pair them with. read more

Absolutely Disgusting . 3 baby roaches fled from the bag upon unpacking the soup itself . Once I attempted to remove the lid from the container the soup was filled to the brim of the container I couldn't even open it without being burned by scolding hot broth. No corn or tortillas were included with this 19$ soup ... Meat was grey and over cooked super chewy not tender whatsoever. Couldn't even bother throwing in a couple hot sauce packs . You can tell they could just really care less about the quality of their food . It's a Scam restaurant please go elsewhere. read more

The rice and beans here not my favorite I ordered a platter for those 2 classic sides and I was just not satisfied, maybe next time . The Tacos though delicious the flavor espectacular didn't need to add the sauce , which I also felt the green sauce was not hitting :/ again the tacos themselves saved this reviewhmm can't forget the agua Fresca here so good I had a Jamaica (hibiscus) read more

This place is one of the most authentic places I've had in Seattle so far. The flavors are amazing and it's true to the culture. I highly recommend their margaritas and trust me a small is all I got and it was amazing. They're not messing around with portions either their tacos are filled and so flavorful and same with all their drinks! The service was outstanding so nice and smiling the entire time they created a perfect dining ambience! Will be coming back! read more

Taquería Tequila Authentic Mexican Food - Three out bottle tacos, and a small margarita - Mexican Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I won't be returning here. I visited this place for the first time and asked for super beef nachos. The plate came to me with so much cheese completely covering the chips as well as the ground beef that was on the bottom of the plate that was sitting in grease, my tortilla chips were wet and soggy when trying to eat them. I asked for a basket of chips, so I can actually have some that were crunchy and she was attempting to charge me $5 more. Won't be back! read more

If you want delicious authentic Mexican food, go to Taqueria Tequila! Quaint clean restaurant. Been there numerous times and never disappointed! A friend who is not a fan of Mexican food will only eat it there as it's so good. So good!! Staff there so nice and helpful ! read more

This is the absolute worst Mexican food I have ever had in the Seattle area. The service was good. They were very polite. They slop together entrees like prison food from the movies I cannot describe how sloppy and awful the the food is, after eating her you will think Taco Bell is a Michelin star restaurant read more

This was a great place for a long time, until one of their regular workers continually had a bad attitude and now I refuse to come back here. I order lunch burritos here all the time and the same employee just always has a bad attitude. I always tip them, I always smile and this employee just hates her life, clearly. After paying full price $19 for 1 burrito (they no longer offer the lunch special) I asked for a small side of chips. She laughed and said no. I asked if I could buy them and she continued to argue with me about me not having ordered them. I ended up paying $5 for a child's side bag of chips, happily. Unfortunately, I am not as happy to say I won't be back. No matter how good the food is, I refuse to be disrespected time and time again when coming into this "establishment." read more

Taquería Tequila Authentic Mexican Food - $5 worth of chips - Mexican Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Taqueria Tequila hit the spot when I was tuned up for some enchiladas. I was so hungry I even got an additional couple of Tacos. Got one of their IPAs to sip along with it. Everything hit the spot. Molè enchiladas weren't the best I've had, but very good otherwise. The chorizo Tacos I feel could've been a bit more hearty for the price but were also good nonetheless. No free chips and salsa like some restaurants have is a tiny let down too and is always a nice touch. What I do like is the ginormous menu when you walk in, similar to a fast food restaurant where you look up at it and tell the cashier what you want. You can even just tell them the number to help with possible language barriers. There over 150 choices on it from the usual stuff to things unique to Taqueria Tequila probably as it's a combo or something Overall, a solid Mexi restaurant with much of what you'd expect. read more

Service sucks food portions too big and drink prices are way over priced and it was about 50 degrees inside would not recommend at all

Unreliable service and hours. I called ahead to confirm they'd be open and they assured me they'd be open until the evening (holday hours) and then I arrive a hour before they said they'd close and it's closed. Given the food quality and service issues, I'm not putting up with this extra BS read more

We love a good food truck! Foods made quick. Quesadilla was exactly how it should be. Habanero salsa was delicious, and Hot. Be careful. Excited to go back and try more items off the menu. Seems like a solid spot. read more

This place is underrated AF. I'm constantly ordering them from Grubhub and they are consistent every. single. time. Great prices for the quality of food (I hope this doesn't change any time soon)! Alexander Plate is my FAVE But the pollo la crema and tacos here are also bomb. The pictures I've seen posted on here of their tacos do NOT do them justice. Plus they actually answer the phone if I have questions about the menu, need to add something to my order, etc. My ONLY complaints: Their Pozole is way too oily (I know it's supposed have a lil fat from the meat, since it's puerco, but not this much- I'm literally Mexican) and lacks salt but that's easily fixed at home + limon. That and they don't give you enough salsa for the amount of chips they send when you order chips & salsa. Just give me one medium or large sized container instead of 4+ tiny little cups that will often break open in the bag. However, the fact that they provide you with ALL the sides one would need for pozole, including cabbage NOT lettuce (gag) like some of these other places, ruled out any negatives for me along with the price. Fire. Other than those minuscule things, I love this place, and the people! Wish I took more pics of all the dishes I've ordered from here, all BOMB. read more

Taquería Tequila Authentic Mexican Food - #16 - Mexican Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This place is my favorite taco place in Northern Seattle. I'm originally from San Francisco, California. If you crave California or Mission style Mexican food, look no further. Whether you're craving simpler styles like carne asada or chorizo, or more adventurous styles like lengua or tripitas, this place nails it! On top of all this, the prices are very reasonable too. Don't overlook this place if you're craving authentic, delicious, reasonably priced Mexican food. read more

If you're looking for good Mexican food, this is it! They're quick and it's authentic. When I went, there was a stack of to go orders they were waiting to be picked up and no dine in customers. Though they' decorated the restaurant in cute Christmas decorations. What I liked best was the tortilla! It was nicely toasted and held up! The tacos had a decent amount of meat. Rice beans was good side to wrap up the meal. read more

I recently discovered a love for Chili Relleno, and I had never been to this joint. I'm glad I gave them a shot. I got the #12, two Chili Rellenos with rice, beans and tortillas. The food was clearly fresh and hot. I forgot to ask if you could get picadillo in the chilis. Perhaps next time. I'll be back and you should try this spot! read more

Taquería Tequila Authentic Mexican Food - 12. Two Chile Rellenos - Mexican Near Me - Seattle, Washington

One of the best places to get takeout/delivery in seattle! Great portion, decent food and for a good price! Their tacos are great, we especially like fish tacos and pork tacos. They also have HUGE burritos that can feed two. So why not! I'd get this to go over and over again. I have never dined in so I can't speak to the negative reviews of that. read more

Wouldn't recommend the beans. Also said no cheese but they had. The chicken taco was great. Carne asada was disappointing. Rice was solid. Chips needed salt. Salsa was too salty but was good. Definitely not the best, but definitely not the worst. read more

FINALLY!!! A fxcking decent burrito in Seattle. Since discovering this place (two weeks) I've been back 3-4 times. They have an extensive menu - I'm a burrito girl and I have to say The #26 Burrito Supreme kicks ass. I make slight modifications to my order - use black beans instead of refried beans, no cheese and no sauce smeared on the top (yuck). Just give me the burrito please. The guac and salsa are top notch. Just the right kick for me on the salsa. The staff and service is phenomenal too - very helpful in making selections and/or changes. This place is a slightly bigger than a whole in the wall - I usually take out, however you can eat in with limited numbers (for the moment). read more

Another delicious meal here! Hubby had (I don't know EXACTLY what it's called) sautéed prawns & mushrooms, I had chipotle chicken. Prices have gone up a bit over the past year or so, but that's to be expected during pandemic & in Seattle. Everything was clean, food was fast, good social distancing. read more

Taquería Tequila Authentic Mexican Food - Chipotle chicken, whole beans instead of refried - Mexican Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Best Mexican food in this neighborhood for the price IMO. Relatively quick service and a nice welcoming vibe! 4-stars

In my opinion, Seattle has been a desert for authentic Mexican food. Being from Texas, I'm always looking for a good Mexican food. Well this place ticks all of the boxes. My first clue that the retardant was full of Hispanic people. You order at the counter and they have a large menu to choose from. My go to is Chili verde and it was delicious and tender. A large serving and the rice and beans were great too. They don't have margaritas but they do have beer. I will definitely be back. read more

The main reason why I love Taquería Tequila? Campechana! The tomatoey soup is chock full of octopus and prawns swimming in a rich broth with diced veggies and savory goodness. The shrimp quesadilla is another favorite, and it's full of shrimp too. It contains just the right amount of cheese in a tender flour tortilla with shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, and guacamole on the side. So delicious. Start with some chips and guacamole. All their salsas are yummy, and the whole beans are a tasty treat. Taquería Tequila has been on my list of top neighborhood joints for several years now, and I have enjoyed a dozen or so meals, both in the restaurant and ordered to go. It's great fun to sit at the bar that adjoins the main room. You'll have that to look forward to one day soon! Until then, throw darts at the selections on their giant menu and you're sure to come up smiling. Taquería Tequila. ¡Qué Rico! read more

My number one go to for authentic Mexican food. The prices are great, the food is even better. Best refried beans in town.

This was probably the worst experience I've had recently in Seattle. We walked into the bar and it didn't have a feel good vibe and I regret not walking out as soon as I walked in. It was so bright in there. We sat at the bar there was 4 of us. I asked the bartender if they make a good margarita and she said yes. She turns around and pours it out of a plastic container. As soon as she poured it I was like what is that?! I was thinking a margarita from scratch since it's a Mexican restaurant. She handed us menus thinking we might eat. The drink was so sweet and not good at all I asked for a shot of tequila to make it worth my while. She came back once and we ordered shots of tequila. She didn't come back at all to even get our food order! I wanted to say what are you doing?! The bar is separate from the restaurant so she was over on the other side. Just a weird lay out. We also used the bathrooms and they were so gross and the place was just nasty. Not sure how the health department doesn't go in there. We had to track her down to get the bill. I almost went ballistic when I saw the bill and how expensive it was!!! Crappy service & crappy drinks. Waste of money. I think I paid $22 for a margarita and a shot to add to it. Insane. Ok my rant is over. read more

Amazing food, good portion sizes... but their website is wildly off. Do not use their website to call and order from. What appears to be around $25 ends up being almost $40. Sorely needs to update their website. Don't be surprised when you walk in and see the bill - use the Yelp app to order read more

Was in the neighborhood and a craving for some Mexican. Gorditos looked closed so I kept driving and was super excited to find the Taqueria! The menu looked terrific and the photos were great. I choose something a little healthy in grilled chicken and vegetables and rice and beans and a Fanta. The price of $14.99 struck me as a little high for a taqueria for just the entree and with the Fanta I was in almost $20? It's typical in a taqueria to pay in advance and I did with tip. The salsa selection was very nice as I grabbed a few with some jalapeños and found a very comfortable booth by the window. It wasn't busy, and the food came out shortly, they brought it to my table. The food was good, the chicken was fresh and firm and it tasted good, not super flavorful. The corn tortillas were a bit dried out, not sure why that happens but they were good also. As sometimes happens, I was a couple tortillas short as I got to finish my lunch. I waited in line with the tortilla container and got to the front, to ask for a few tortillas. I half expected to pay for them and wasn't surprised that they charged me for them, this is probably also a taqueria thing? They gave me four so I wasted half. I haven't decided if I would return to this taqueria. read more

I wasn't wildly impressed, but I also was satisfied leaving. Things I believe they can work on: The cost of dishes here I feel or a little bit high for the quality of food you receive, I think the flavor is what is lacking. They could add a little bit more bang and zip. Things I believe they do well: this restaurant is on a great street, and I think they do a awesome job of filling up their parking lot, it seems like they are fairly busy, the staff is kind and patient, the food comes out super hot which is one of my preferences, they are doing a wildly big menu and I think it gives everyone an option. Give it a shot, it's not my favorite but it is satisfactory. read more

After living in Los Angles for over a decade, I was constantly disappointed in Mexican food in Seattle. Not that it didn't taste good (well some didn't) but because it didn't taste authentic. Then... but then. I found this place. **imagine the sun breaking through the clouds and my stomach doing a happy dace*** Yeah, it's that good. The burritos feed me for three days. But before you get all judgy pants about that, it's not just big like some of the burritos in the area, it's filled with amazing food. But what is the thing not to miss? Chipolte Chicken. You must like a little spice for this dish, but it's heavenly. And if you love this dish but want to try something else? Just get the Chipotle sauce on the burrito of your choice. Try it, it's really that good. And it's affordable!!!! Staff at Taqueria Tequila, thank you! You make pandemic ordering in still shine! (you know how some food gets all nasty in the transport, nope. Not here!) GO EAT IT. read more

For a southern CA kid this is maybe the best Mexican food I've had since I've been in Seattle.

Got the order wrong and did not read the instructions to include utensils and napkins. Chicken seemed boiled with no flavor. Pretty sub par. Would go to Gordita's instead next time. read more

Their Birria is fire!!! You think you need more consommé when you have 2 birria tacos but it's perfect! I'm addicted.
