    My entire goal for finding and getting food from Edgar's Cantina was to also get the toasted grasshoppers. Once in line though, I opted to also order the "tacos del barrio". Unfortunately, when I went to order the green chile pork version, that option wasn't available... so I ordered the barbacoa chicken instead. I opted to keep the tacos simple (they don't skimp on the meat!), and just had green chili added, as well as a light cheese topping. The woman preparing my tacos also asked if I wanted sour cream, which I said yes to... without realizing that it was just a little sour cream packet, not something added to the tacos at the end of the prep line. Of course, I purchased the toasted grasshoppers too... which come with lime and sea salt on them, I believe. The tacos are generally good - and the grasshoppers are a neat option to try - but the concession area itself has QUITE a long line, and it's clear they're not necessarily well stocked on all items that one might want to order from the menu. Also, because of the long line? They kinda rush through the prep process. Would I get food from here again? Sure... but my first time ordering from here was near the end of the season AND during the game that was pretty much sold out because the Mariners were potentially going to clinch that night (which they did - huzzah!). That's probably not the best idea. Maybe an early season game with a less popular opponent would be ideal. :)

    Yay! What could be better?!!

    Great spot!! We found this spot during a recent game. Loved that I could get a margarita and see the pre-game action without fighting long happy hour lines or a large crowd. You can get table service or grab drinks at the bar. Expect me back every game!

    great area to watch the game and order some good bites! order: mini chimis, chicken nachos and birria torta quick service and recommended going a bit early to grab a table

    Great place to enjoy the game.

    Great view and amazing service. Good way to enjoy the game in a reserved area. Can be a little cold.

    Pricey but that's safeco for you, and if you're hungry you must pick your poison. We ordered the fried crickets for $4, they are spicy crispy and won't disappoint! They offer more than tacos, such as nachos, a complete bar. We ordered the fish, beef, and pork tacos. My favorite were the battered crispy fish ones. They're layered with salsa but it's skimpy. Beef was kind of tough, and pork didn't have the flavor that I was looking for. There are two locations. One has a bar and is located with a great view of the game. Come downstairs to experience one of the best places to be at a seattle mariners game! It's filling and the staff aren't as helpful or If you're in safeco or a seattle fan, it's a must try because well Edgar Martinez, of course!

    Edgars Cantina what a great concept for the Mariners to celebrate a legend ..... From the left field corner you can stand of the deck and double fist a brew & taco while enjoying the game. The upper deck is on the 100 level and the lower version is in the underground lair aka bullpen area of the stadium... On Friday game's I think you get more action at Edgar's Cantina than the mariners provide on the field. Now aside from savoring & guzzling giant cans of Mexican beer you can also gorge on carne asada taco's & nachos. I'm not a fan of pump Nacho Cheese but hey it's America. It gets a tad overcrowded from my experience so get there early for a table on the outfield wall . And if your lucky you'll catch a home run ball... So play ball!

    Got Paseos Caribbean pulled pork sandwich and it was good! The sandwich tasted the same as ones made at Paseos, however it was very noticeable how there was significantly less meat and caramelized onions. A bit disappointed in the size, but it was still a good sandwich. At least my fingers didn't get too sticky and meat didn't fall everywhere after one bite.

    Amazing nachos in the club level, slower service but that's because you can hand pick all of your toppings. Great food and awesome atmosphere in Safeco!!!!

    Great Mexican restaurant located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood in Seattle…read more Freshly made chips that come with a salsa roja that has a kick to it. Not bland like in other places. The ceviche was fresh and loved that they added shredded carrots for extra crunchiness. Tacos de carne were delicious, with the meat properly seasoned. Will definitely come back for more the next time we are in Seattle. Service was prompt and courteous.

    I shared the mole enchiladas and lengua en salsa verde from this Mexican place…read more Of these, the lengua en salsa verde was my favorite. The beef tongue was cooked pretty well. Although it's naturally very fatty, the flavor and juiciness was retained after cooking - so they didn't screw it up. The salsa verde was a very nice accompaniment, as it tasted light, fresh, and a good complement to the fat of the meat. The mole enchiladas were less good. The mole sauce used leaned way too heavily on a sweet flavor - having little to no nuttiness whatsoever. It didn't taste anywhere close to some of the best moles I've had. The enchilada underneath was fine - nothing special. Both dishes came with beans and rice. Both were slightly above average, but nothing to write home about. I would say the portions were well sized in terms of overall amount, but the enchiladas were quite small compared to the beans and rice. With these two dishes we ended up around 28 per person. Overall, it's average Mexican food. 6.5/10

However, I just found out you can put your self on the waitlist on their website if it's busy. Sundays are the best days to go as it's not as busy and they were able to accommodate a big party. The restaurant also has a parking lot for people to park at as well, so that is a plus! The drink menu is very limited, they don't have a full bar. I ordered the skinny margarita and it was good. The food is authentic and if you are looking for authentic Mexican food, D'La Santa is the spot. We ordered the queso and the rajitas. Both appetizers are really good, came out super hot. Highly recommend. I got the carne asada plate and added an extra mini quesadilla. The carne is very seasoned so you have to eat it with the tortilla to balance out the saltiness. The service was fast and our waiter was very attentive.

We went on a Sunday and I was really hoping to try the tiramisu and bone marrow, but they weren't available at the date and time we went (shed a tear). Still, what we ordered completely made up for it. We had the torta ahogada, costillita en salsa roja, and moyetes dulces and I was honestly blown away. They absolutely nailed the tortas ahogadas. They were so good we ordered three more to go. I would gladly drive that hour and a half again just to eat here. I'll definitely be taking pictures next time! Also great service, they're super nice and attentive.

I'm usually a fan of a smaller, curated menu because it suggests care in sourcing and execution. But for us, the execution just didn't land. Everything is served family-style, but the portion sizes didn't justify the price point. We started with the sourdough and butter spread, and it was a letdown right away. The bread was hard as a rock, and the butter--while sounding interesting--came slightly burnt and didn't feel worth $11 for two pieces. Next was the albacore tuna tostada. As someone who travels to Mexico City often, I was genuinely excited for this. But it leaned heavily on avocado, with barely any tuna to balance it out. For $25 and only two tostadas, it felt pretty stingy. The rapini quesadilla sounded promising but ended up tasting mostly like broccolini and mushrooms--nothing that really stood out or justified the dish. We finished with the 21-day dry-aged steak, which, at $59, felt like it should've been a highlight. Unfortunately, it missed the mark. It came out essentially raw, which I didn't mind in theory, but it was incredibly chewy and lacked flavor. It was difficult to cut and even harder to enjoy. The tortillas were nice, and the demi-glaze had potential, but overall it just didn't come together. Even the refried beans on the side were underwhelming--something you could easily find done better at a casual spot. On the bright side, the mezcal margarita with a tajín rim was excellent--well-balanced and probably the highlight of the night. And the service was warm and attentive, which I appreciated. But overall, for the prices and the hype, this place just didn't do it for me. Maybe we ordered wrong, but I've had much better elsewhere. I hate to say it, but I probably won't be back.

So many of our regular spots had lines out the door, which was no surprise, but we ended up getting a table here. Figured Mexican food is hard to mess up. Started with drinks- THE BEST MARGARITA I HAVE EVER HAD. It was perfectly balanced, fresh, just perfect to me. My fiance got a horchata and loved it too. They have an option where you can try ALL of their dips for $20, which I couldn't resist. It was so fun, they had like 9 different ones! I got the shrimp tacos and they were so flavorful that I almost gasped. The creamy sauce, crunchy veggie toppers, smooth avocado, and perfectly cooked shrimp...just wow. I will be dreaming about this dish for years to come. I am a pescatarian and gluten free and there were TONS of options for me. They mostly use corn for everything, not flour. The staff was gracious and kind. They seemed a little understaffed but truly made the most of it and made every table feel attended to and special, which was so lovely.

I was disappointed to…read moresee that the menu has changed a lot (and not just seasonally, but just a completely different menu) since the last time I visited (maybe a year ago or so). Before it seemed like Maiz Molino was focusing on elevated, unique Mexican dishes (shown in the pics in my prior review such as short rib, and other sort of "fusion" dishes, and more seafood focused, etc.) Now, the menu seems way more generic and casual like enchiladas, tacos, quesadillas, tamales, etc. just offered w/ different proteins. They are still focusing on maiz but just a bit more generic in the preparation and offerings. Also, they had 2 separate menus which was a bit confusing. One is a generic all day menu and then another menu had brunch and dinner on it. It was around 5:30 p.m. but they were out of a particular steak dish that we were interested in. Service was friendly. We had enchiladas, a dip sampler (for appetizer) and Tlacoyos. Everything was fine but nothing really stood out, sadly. It wasn't very busy while we were there, so hoping that they are doing ok as a business. I would love to come back if they brought back the old menu w/ things that you cannot really find elsewhere, including the great cocktail menu and desserts that were offered previously.

Andrew (our server) introduced us to his sidekick, who was in training. Love that personal, hands on approach for a mew team member, and Sidekick did a great job in monitoring our table and replenishing water. Have to stop here and express my appreciation for Andrew and how he took the time to explain the philosophy and genuine team vibe of the restaurant. Oftentimes when a restaurant adds a flat 20% gratuity, you get the feeling this is not passed on to the servers. Not so here. He explained that it's shared among the servers, bar, and other staff, with only a bit retained by management, but even that finds its way into their wages. Terrific work environment and happy to see it. It definitely shows in the level of service. But we're here to eat. Didn't take a picture, but one of my dining companions ordered the burrito with red chili sauce and it was very good. Just the right amount of heat in the sauce. The Cantina celebrates Taco Tuesday, so I took advantage of this. You get the opportunity to try 5 different street tacos for the low price of $15. For another $4 you order it fully loaded which is a steal (guac, pickled onions, lettuce, giardano, crema, and another lovely sauce). Each of the tacos were really delicious and packed full of flavor. I especially enjoyed the cauliflower and the beef. Was surprised how much I liked the popcorn chicken - still juicy and not greasy in the least. Andrew treated us to a round of the hatch green chili. I was delighted because it was a dish I wanted to try. He described it perfectly: a little kick, but you can't stop eating it. He was right. A bowl of this in the winter with their cornbread (which I'm confident will be delicious) will preempt a winter cold. The sauces on the table are not to be ignored either. The green chili sauce was fruity with a little heat, the scorpion chili brings the heat, but their homemade chili oil is phenomenal. I could put this on everything. In short, the Cantina delivers. Excellent food, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and fun staff, and a cool vibe. I'll bet the cocktails will also be good. Definitely adding to the regular rotation!
