I wish I took pictures, I live in Vancouver and met my bestie that lives in Puyallup, to catch up…read moreso I wasn't thinking of food pictures. The restaurant is decorated like you're in someone's home in Mexico, it was so cute! It was very busy when we came in They don't have chips and salsa fyi - this joint is incredibly authentic Not a HUGE menu, but decent amount of choices which right away tells me they do what they do well if the menu isn't 8 pages haha We got quick service, there was one woman seating people, taking orders, and closing checks, and she did it well! My friend and I ordered soup (specifically carne en su jugo), which is my FAVORITE SOUP EVER, and I can't ever find it anywhere, and boy oh boy I will drive the 1.5 hours to get it again and again, it was perfect. They provide maximum of 2 ramekins of pickled carrots (cost if you want more, which were amazing) and 1 ramekin of green salsa (charge if you want more - and it's spicy but so good!) 3 crispy chicken tacos 1 mole with refried beans taquito (not rolled) 1 adobado pork sopa 1 adobado pork taco 2 chorizo tacos 1 hibiscus aqua fresca The restaurant doesn't have any music on, which I always appreciate background noise in general, but my friend and I were talking so much and the place was busy I didn't notice too much We planned on meeting monthly in Centralia and will continue to go here to eat, check it out!!!

Instead of…read moretrusting their location to bring in a constant stream of new customers, they appear to be a genuine part of the community. Everything about our visit said classic, old-school Mexican restaurant. The basket of chips arrived perfectly warmed. My wife's burrito was chock full of moist white meat chicken, and my carnitas (made with chicken) turned out to go perfectly with refried beans, rice, and soft, hot tortillas. Our table had inset tiles decorated with chili peppers, and the walls and arches featured rustic, colorful tiles as well as photos of local kids sports teams (presumably sponsored by the restaurant). All in all, a bright, comfortable, welcoming space.

The food was phenomenal! The beer was cold! And the times were fun! We most definitely need to come back for a full dinner one night because this place checks all the right boxes! 10/10 would most definitely come back AND recommend!

On a trip up to Mt. Rainier we stopped at Chimi's for lunch…read more It was pretty good for a small town Mexican restaurant. I had a chicken enchilada and a shredded beef tostada served with beans and rice. The tostada was crispy and flavorful cut the enchilada was a bit bland an tasteless. I kept wishing there had been something besides shredded chicken in the filling. Maybe some cheese or onion? It was pretty bland. I would have liked more sauce as well. The beans and rice were quite bland as well. It was a filling lunch though and we were hungry. The host and waiter were lovely and couldn't have been nicer.

Compared to other Mexican cuisine, this place has great portions that will be sure to leave your belly full and your heart happy! The quality of the food is amazing! There's also lots of options to choose from, which can make it hard to settle on one dish because they all look so good. Drinks? Love! They have a really good specialty cocktail menu that has drinks for every flavor palette. You will be sure to find something you like. Ambiance? SPECTACULAR! The interior design of the restaurant is so cozy and comforting. I really like how the booths are separated for a sense of privacy.
