Shrimp burrito
Grace T.

Wow. This is our second time visiting this truck and it again has only amazed us. The food was cheap and came out quick, and the portions are huge! The burrito is already half eaten in the photos and is still bigger than my hand! The chicken on the tacos is amazing with no fatty pieces and the Horchata is only $3 and delicious! The truck has its own little parking lot too so you're able to sit in your car and eat without staring at the road!

The food tastes great and it came out really quick! I'd highly recommend for those in the area to try the asada fries or tacos.

Al Pastor, Lengua & Carne Asada ($3 each)

When there's a constant line of people waiting in the rain for a food truck, I'd call that a promising sign! Bandido's is tucked away in a quiet parking lot on a side road, so it's super easy to miss if you're not seeking it out. It's also just plain white, making it look like any ordinary truck. All this considered, I assume they must rely on word of mouth or social media to attract customers. Three of us came for a weekday lunch around 12:30P and parked in the lot near the truck. One employee took all the orders and kindly called people up to get their food once ready. One cook in the back prepared all the food. The two of them appeared to have a good system going. I got three tacos a la carte ($3.00 each), composed of warm tortillas, meat of choice and diced onion & cilantro. + LENGUA (tongue): Wow! The tongue is terrific. It was super lean, tender and had a natural beefy flavor. That being said, it could have used some oomph seasoning-wise (or a little salt), so I poured on some salsa. I don't order tongue that often, but when I do, I'll be comparing it to this one. + CARNE ASADA (steak): This was delicious too. The chopped beef had a light grilled taste and the pieces were not too fatty. I topped it with a little mild green salsa and red spicy salsa, but these really weren't necessary. + AL PASTOR (spicy pork): I wouldn't consider this spicy, but the meat was seasoned well and marinated, resulting in its bright orange color. The pork was pretty tender and out of all three tacos, this one was the boldest in flavor. One of my lunch companions got the TACO PLATE ($14) which included three tacos, rice and beans. She said the cubes of chicken were on the dry side. If she had just gotten the tacos, they would have been $9, so the taco plate essentially adds on $5 for the rice and beans. I thought the serving size was fairly generous, but the pricing seemed a little steep in this case. My other companion got the CHICKEN BURRITO ($10) which was huge! He enjoyed it, and this could easily be two servings for some people. This is a solid spot for tacos in Redmond! 4.25 stars.

Torta w/ Al Pastor / Adobada - oh my gosh was this good.
Erik T.

I actually drove past this food truck while running some errands and decided to give it a try. I am SO glad I did. I got the tortas and it was amazing. Probably one of the best I have had. It came on a grilled French roll with beans, choice of meat (I got it with Al Pastor / Adobada), tomato, avocado, jalapeños, and mayo. It was enormous and so dang good. It was so good that I'm head back there this next week to try out some of their other options. [ UPDATE ] - i just picked up a cheese quesadilla and an Adobada burrito. Both were great! I think the burrito was the best burrito I have had in Redmond. It was so amazingly good!

Carne Asada street tacos
Chris C.

Stopped by here on a work trip in the middle of the day. The truck is tucked away in the very back of a parking lot... kinda hard to find if you don't know the area. Ambiance was that of a parking lot, so not that inviting, but hey... we're just here for the tacos. Lady running the window was nice enough, but kinda "all business", since it was lunch time. I appreciated her no nonsense approach. The tacos... the main event! They were friggin' hefty! Very full of their respective fillings. The meat was cooked perfectly and the tortillas were crunchy but still foldable. I chowed these down in the parking lot like I had never eaten before. They really hit the spot. This place makes LEGIT street tacos. If that's your jam, this is the spot.

Taco Meal Plate

Super delicious tacos and refried beans! We're so glad we tried this place and we'll definitely be back the next time we crave tacos. I got cabeza, lengua, and al pastor. All hits and we've had some pretty good tacos in LA and Vegas.

Best Mexican tacos I've had in Washington. Burrito was pretty good too. Food truck is a little tucked away but worth the find.

This place never misses. It's one of those special places that I think about all the time…read more I have been going here since I was a kid and love the vibe. It feels very Redmond/part of the community and is a great place for a casual meal, though the food does also hold up pretty well for takeout. The staff is great. A lot of people who work there have worked there for years and years, and it's nice to see this kind of employee loyalty. All the servers are kind and happy to be there. I go 10-12x per year and have never once had a bad interaction, or even one that was anything less than joyful. Their food is incredible. So much flavor, fresh food, delicious. My go-tos are the cheese enchiladas and the shrimp tacos. Both perfect to me. They make their own salsas and the green salsa is so good that I generally buy it in bulk when possible. The food and salsas have been consistently delicious every time I have been. Never an off meal. Lot's of options for dietary needs too- lots of gluten free, vegetarian, dairy free, etc. I have also gotten catering from them and it's amazing and well loved. They put a ton of care into everything. This will forever be my favorite restaurant in Redmond!

With fast service, a good location off the Sammamish River Trail, and handy bike parking in front, we must return in summer when tables outside in front on a warm early evening would make pleasant dining. Simple menus help a restaurant run better, but for a place big enough for thirteen or more tables plus takeout, the menu is limited. Our sunny midwinter late Friday afternoon-evening found the place almost empty with one other table and three takeouts. A more varied menu with other Mexican favorites might draw a larger crowd. It's def underrated.

We ordered the La Catrina and Fire in the Hole pizzas and while a bit pricy, it's a wayyyy better deal than pizza at the other local spots like Pagliacci's and Zeek's. The crust was so light and crispy, the pieces held together well and none of the slices really fall apart when you pick it up to eat. They offered us some hot honey on the side too when the pizzas came out and that was a welcome addition too the Fire in the Hole. I didn't find it too spicy but consider your own spice tolerance before ordering. The La Catrina was my favorite of the two. The steak and the toppings all went together so nicely that it 100% beat eating tacos at your average PNW taco truck (but obviously not California tacos). Pickled red onions on the pizza really gave it the depth of flavor it needed.

I wanna give this spot 5 stars but I feel like its to early since I've tried this for my first time…read morethis past weekend but damn was I proud of myself for picking this spot over any others in the area. I can't believe I haven't heard of saw this hidden Gem anywhere either recommend to me on yelp or came across it on social media but I think I kinda prefer that because it's super lowkey but the flavors are a melody that melts your taste buds! Honestly didn't think it would hit so hard but in the back of my mind seeing the pictures and prices I knew something in my soul told me this is it.. So for the first time in a long time I listened to my heart and stomach and ventured here with my better half for dinner and I'm addicted! We ordered to go and took 15m to drive home but the food was still hot and delicious! I kept saying over and over like "Damn this sh*t hittin!" With every bite. I told her after we finished eating that we're going back ASAP. So when I try this spot a few more times to test consistency it will easily be a 5 All day! But till then 4 stars and HIGHLY recommend to anyone reading!
