I noticed this place closed about a month back and I was not at all sursprised. On my first visit here, Prices and portions were both generous, but honestly, the food was average at best. That said, what you got for the money was a deal, so I tried to give them a positive nudge. I came back a few times and the food didn't improve, but it was cheap, so it was a great alternative to fast food. That said, late last year I stopped in for a couple tacos and they had jumped from $1.75 to $4 and chips were no longer complimentary. Attitudes were also salty, so it was clear to me days were limited. Would have been great if they could have pulled it out, but the food just wasn't good enough to draw or hold a crowd. read more

Sadly I am very disappointed in this decision on reviewing this restaurant. I haven't been there for a while because they put French fries in my burrito the last time. I figured I would try again and ask them not to. Maybe because I asked they were upset about that and did it anyways and over did it. I will never go back again! read more

Fabulous Tasty Food! There were many people eating inside and I knew this place was going to be good! It reminds me a lot of El Rinconcito. Same restaurant layout and similar menu. The menu is HUGE so it was hard to order one thing. Good luck! I absolutely loved the side of beans with free never ending chips. I was craving refried beans and wanted authentic flavor. This hit the spot. The chips were perfectly hot and not too oily. Seasoned well. I ate so many free pickled carrots. In fact I ate so many chips and carrots that I never touched the California steak burrito I ordered. I ate that the next day! And it was still very tasty after a little time in the air fryer! You could almost split one burrito into 2 meals! My husband ordered a steak taco salad in a tortilla bowl and a beef tamale. I tried the tamale and it was good, 6 out of 10, but I prefer pork (wasn't an option) and without sauce. The taco salad was fantastic and my husband wolfed it down. The only change he would make was that they should have put more lettuce in it. Oh and the leftover chips made great nachos the next day! But the star of the show was their spicy pineapple salsa/sauce. (You help yourself to it) I've never had that flavor hot sauce before. Spectacular! Spicy but a little sweet and perfectly creamy. I could eat that with everything!!! read more

Okay... first time eating here tonight, and I believe they have newly opened. They refer to themselves as 'fast food' and had a plethora of pictures overhead depicting each dish. I was overwhelmed! My husband ordered a burrito and I ordered chili verde plate ... we ordered at the counter, given cups to fill our drinks, and we found ourselves seats. We found a table up front, and while we waited for our food...I checked out the 'salsa and sauce' bar. They had all the usual suspects, and the hottest labeled with a sticky note. The decor seemed all 'leftover' from the los Cabo's restaurant that was there before, including the specialty tables. Our table tho wiped, was not not done well. My plate of Chili Verdes was Huge... enough to feed four of me. And looked yummy! And first bite.... Was that ... fat? Again, another bite, and this time a lot of fat? Is this what chili verde is suppose to be? I filled a shell, added some sweet salsa and the flavors all came together. It was good. Not extraordinary, ... just good. Hubby's burrito was well made, chocked full of goodin's, with lots of shrimps, evenly sliced veggies. His Horchata (made in house) was tasty, thin, and hadn't had time to seat long enough.... But good. We are going to give these guys a solid 3-4 stars. Not sure if we'll go back or not.... I usually like to give people a second chance. Sooooo read more

I never had an issue with Don Taco. The food is decent enough. My issue today is whether it's ethical to have a posted menu price but charge a higher price. I'm not sure if there are rules about this that businesses are required to follow or not, but I'm irked enough to contact the Covington Chamber of Commerce to find out. An honorable business would change the menu before the price in the register system. read more

Best Mexican food in the Seattle area since leaving San Diego! Please support this place so that they can stick around. The salsa bar (with hot carrots) is very, very good. Service is great. But the star of the show is the food!!! Authentic shredded beef rolled tacos with cotija cheese is my favorite! read more

The fried tilapia was delicious! Perfectly fried. The free chips were a bonus of course with the salsas/sauces/pickled veggies. Definitely coming back here again. Ate peacefully here and noticed there were many regulars based on how they greeted the employees. Loved the ambiance. read more

Just a huge lover of this place. From the tripas tacos to the pineapple salsa to the unlimited chips. Every time I'm here I'm happy.

Their shredded beef burrito is next-level -- packed with flavor and seriously satisfying. The hot sauce bar is a game-changer. That red-orange sauce? Absolute perfection. And don't sleep on the tomatillo, either -- fresh, tangy, and delicious. read more

We moved from CA over a year ago and have been STARVING for good taqueria style Mexican food. Don Taco's is as close as it gets. Their burritos are a generous size, with the carne asada and al pastor having great flavor. The salsa bar is awesome. 100% give this place a try. read more

First time I went here the tacos and burritos were great, good meat and a lot of it. Went back a second time and it seemed like they must have used cheaper pork as the tacos and burrito were full of fat chunks. I know that the pork they use for carnitas is a fatty cut from the pig. But this is beyond that. I went back a third time to see if they had a bad week. Even mentioned the disproportional amount of fat, only to be told it's the cut of meat. The meat wasn't bad at all the first visit. It seems mentioning it made them mad because the $12 burrito we got this time had more fat than meat, the tacos were at least ok. I think it was on purpose because we mentioned how much fat was in our last order and asked for less so they stuffed it in the burrito to be rude. Between tacos and the burrito it was close to $40 each time I visited, needless to say, I won't be going back. read more

Really good food! Only thing that is disconcerting is the menu up on the wall. There is so much listed that it can be confusing while ordering... but then... the food is really good once you get it! read more

Found this spot thanks to Yelp. Love that they're open late so I don't have to drive all the way out to a 24 hour spot. I order my typical California burrito or the super fries or nachos. Portion size is quite large, prices are reasonable, and taste is run of the mill for local Mexican restaurants. They do have a serve yourself salsa bar as well as complimentary chips which is always welcome. I'll keep coming back if I'm in the mood for late night Mexican food. read more

This place right here is the real deal. Best Mexican cuisine I've found in the Covington area. Great prices, large portions, delicious fresh food, friendly service, excellent salsa bar with pickled veggies, and most importantly complimentary chips that were hot and fresh. Got the Texas Burrito for myself and it was amazing. My wife got the Vegetarian Burrito Plate and it came fully loaded. Can't wait to come back and try out a breakfast burrito. read more

This is just a little place I discovered in a strip mall and worth the stop. The pork street tacos are devine!

Don Taco's - Delicious Carnitas - Tacos Near Me - Covington, Washington

I am not sure where these good reviews are coming from, but it was the most god aweful food I have ever eaten! $35.00 later and the food is in our garbage can. We called to make a complaint and told then I had just got out of the hospital, and we were unable to come back the same night (and that is the truth) and we were told bzzzz .... wrong answer, they could not refund our money and did not offer any kind of replacement or to try something else. My husband ordered the burrito with ground beef, he was given shredded beef after repeating it 3 times to make sure they had entered it right and it was so dryyyyy it hit the garbage can after the second bite, he was trying to make sure it wasn't just him after the first bit! I ordered the Chile Verde which I have gotten there before and it was eatable, again it was obviously made in a rush, it should have been tender shredded pork with the green Chile sauce and the pork was hard nasty chunks and near to nothing for sauce. The customer service and actual food was the worst I have ever experienced! Unbelievably gross. I understand this is fast food and is convenient but at what price do you hold your standards in customer service and quality food??? Make you want to say HMMM? read more

Don Taco's - see the brown on the pork? when the pork is slow cooked it should never have brown grill marks! - Tacos Near Me - Covington, Washington

They keep the music so loud you can barely talk to each other. Went in twice. They're out of chips asked if they were making more chips. They said yes nothing ever came out. It's always happens when they let the kids run the shop. When the owner is there she is on top of it and very nice. read more

Our first time in after reading such rave reviews. I wasn't expecting Mexican fast good either a fine in flair. We spent over $55 for nachos, chicken asada, two street tacos, a small Diet Coke and a margarita. The chip bar looked promising either all the offered variety but the pico was not to our liking. My margarita was more Rita than marga and looked like watered down flavoring; if there was alcohol in it, I'd be very surprised. All the food was pedestrian, though a big step up from Taco Bell or Taco Time. Our curiosity has been under whelmingly disappointed. Congratulations to those who enjoy dining there. read more

I was totally excited to try this place based on the reviews, so I drove 30 minutes to get there and was supposed to get the California burrito which is steak with potatoes and cheese. I let the young man know that I did not like sour cream or guacamole and he assured me he put that on the order just to be safe because he didn't know if it came with i. Got home excited to eat only to find a sloppy soggy mess of a burrito that was full of chicken rice and what seemed like extra sour cream. I called to speak to the manager, and the young man that answered the phone (and who had taken my order said I was tripping and that he gave me the right food and there was nothing he could do because I got some food even if it was thw wrong item. I asked for a manager, and a female got on the phone and was rude telling me that i need to come in to the store to talk to them and she didn't understand why I was upset. I tried to explain that I had paid $15 for a burrito that I can't eat after driving 30 minutes each way to get it and then the way her employee talked to me was out of line but she just again told me i could come back to the store and hung up. Horrible customer service, and the food I received was not what I ordered and not edible. read more

Exactly what I was looking for. Super tasty tacos! Loved the free chips and salsa bar
