Wow - what a great spot for dinner! We tried several restaurants on the block but most are closed…read moreon Mondays, so we wandered into Centro. Small amount of seating inside - maybe 3-4 booths, 2 tables and 6 seats at the bar, but they have more seating outside which was fully enclosed and heated. We snagged the last table inside and ordered chips and queso to start. Frankly made flour tortilla chips that were thick and crunchy - the perfect vessel for the queso sauce which was perfectly cheesy and delish. For dinner my husband got the Barbadilla and I asked our server if he would recommend the lime-cilantro chicken or chicken tinga for the Calabaza Quesadilla and he recommended the chicken tinga - he did not stead me wrong! Huge portions of meat in the quesadilla - I only ate a third and am having the rest for lunch tomorrow. The two servers could not have been nicer or more helpful and our dinner arrived in record time. We spent $65 for our two entrees, appetizer, a coke and a beer before tip. Love having such awesome restaurants in B-Town!

My husband and I went to Centro for dinner -- this is a place we visit often…read more We ordered the Tres Chiles drink, the Centro Bowl with Angus beef and jalapeño crema, and the Tlayuda. The Centro Bowl is consistently satisfying and never disappoints. Great flavors and a solid, reliable choice every time. The Tlayuda, however, was a bit underwhelming. It was difficult to eat and the portion felt small, leaving us wanting more. Overall, we still enjoy Centro for its atmosphere and dependable dishes, good service. We'll definitely be back, and the Centro Bowl will remain our go-to order.

I finally made it to Birrieria Tijuana and WOW... I'm honestly mad I didn't come sooner…read more The birria caldo was absolutely amazing - rich, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned with a homemade taste that you just can't fake. You can tell it's made with love and tradition. The meat was tender, juicy, and soaked up all that deep, savory broth in the best way possible. On top of that, the customer service was super friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. It really felt like one of those hidden gems where the food AND the people both stand out. If you're anywhere near Burien and craving birria. don't think twice. This place is it I can't wait to try more items on their extensive menu! They also have a dessert place adjacent.

Bacon, sausage and french toast were AMAZING!

I've been going by this place for years without realizing how good it is - I missed out!…read more We went on a Saturday at 9:30 and it was already bustling, although we were seated right away. We ordered the mole chilaquiles and the churro pancakes and were pleased with both dishes. The mole was great and a huge serving, and the pancakes were three huge fluffy pancakes with ice cream and whipped cream - we could each only eat half and now we've got leftovers- yay! Pancakes also came with eggs and three huge pieces of bacon that managed to be both thick and crispy - delicious. Service was super fast and friendly. We will certainly be back!

Found La Esquina on Yelp and it was just what we needed! It was pretty quiet at 5pm on a Sunday, but things picked up. I tried the margarita flight. My favorites were the spicy ones. I was a little hungry and didn't want a full meal but was craving shrimp tacos. The owner, Christian, was serving us, and I asked him if he could just hook me up with two grilled shrimp tacos with a spicy crema sauce, even though it wasn't really on the menu, and he delivered! Hubby got some pozole and loved it. Christian even threw in some complimentary tequila shots for our group. We all had a great time!

El Catrin has become a favorite Mexican restaurant of ours for this part of Seattle. What grabbed…read moreour attention with it was that they serve Huitlacoche which I'd a corn fungus which is a delicacy in Mexico and Central America. It's something that is pretty rare to find with all of the Mexican restaurants I have been to El Catrin is the only one where it has been found. We had it on the side with rice, lettuce and tomato. The flavor for it is mushroom like with a sweet, savory, woody and smoky flavor that is corn like. It was very unique and delicious! In addition to that we got some totally awesome nachos which out of this world! We made a second trip back here and I got their Chile Relleno which totally blew me away! It was fabulous! The tortillas that came with it were simply marvelous! Steve got an excellent quesadilla! The wait may be a tad long but it's so worth waiting for. I really can't praise the food enough! We are located in Tacoma and El Catrin is in an unincorporated Seattle neighborhood and so the drive is at least half an hour on a good day but we wouldn't hesitate in making a trip up here just for this restaurant! I can't say that for many restaurants but I certainly would with El Catrin. Fresh, flavorful and a sheer delight we will be coming here with any opportunity we can seize!
