    Call the cops.  Murdered mexi fry
    Brent P.

    This quick serve establishment was icon of the PNW for years when I was growing up.... and actually was one of my first jobs as a young man..... I am embarrassed By the food.... quality Zero.... I can remember when taco time didn't seem like fast food..... a step above.... a good alternate to all the burger joints.... Now i would debate if Taco Bell was equal to them.... SAD. The mexi fry is crumble over cooked.... deep fried joke..... should call the local police since someone murdered my did! Taco time NW ... get it together.... take some pride. You have an opportunity to fix things and get back to basics..... What we are now paying for drive thru is what we paid for sit down meals.... I don't want excuses for supply chain... or can't find employees.... etc.... standard corporate excuses... Well.. here is an idea.. pay people a livable wage and benefits. Get quality product... and charge accordingly I've gotten Better quality at a roadside Taco truck....

    Shrimp Baja Taco

    It's been a while since I've had Taco Time, and their Crisp Burrito and Tater Fries (which is what I usually get there) was sounding good. I went through the drive-thru and ordered those two things, and also got the Shrimp Baja Taco. The Shrimp Baja Taco was pretty good. The Beef Crisp Burrito and the tots were good, but didn't seem to be as good as I remembered. Both weren't as crispy as I remembered them to be.

    Fiesta Mexi-Platter Beef. Look folks 7 whole chips (well 6 and 3/4 chips actually). Seriously Taco Time! WTF!

    Food very good. Clean Restaurant. Why do you have to be tight with the little things? Like the measly amount of chips.

    Natural Soft Taco w/ Beef & Mexi Fries
    Jacques I.

    K, I am a fan of Taco Time! I still remember when Issaquah only had one Taco Time, so this second one was a nice addition because the first Taco Time was ALWAYS packed during the lunch hours. Plus, this Taco Time is much more convenient if you're located on the other side of the city, as you don't have to go on Gilman to get your Taco Time fix anymore! And because this location is the newer one, the building is much more modern and inviting. Heck, there's even a fireplace out on the patio! It's very welcoming. Food is solid. There's not much to it, as the food is simple and perhaps what you expected from a Mexican fast food chain, but it's yummy! They make their own hot sauce, too, which isn't too spicy yet provides a nice hint of spice to whatever you put it on. For me - I like that the Natural Soft Taco is filled with the basics, in addition to your protein of choice with lettuce, tomato, refried beans and ranch. The combination comes with your choice of side, and you can't go wrong with the Sweet Potato Mexi Fries, which are basically tots! Overall, this Taco Time is a solid place for lunch for me whenever I need a quick, casual meal, especially on the go as there is a drive-thru here that goes by quickly no matter how long the line is. You know you want those Mexi Fries!

    I think Taco Time puts a lot of Mexican restaurants to shame. It's always so fresh and the service is great.

    If you happen to be in the area (Costco, REI, and Trader Joe's are practically neighbors) and…read moresuddenly develop an urgent need for legitimately excellent nachos, this is your spot. We've eaten here dozens of times -- easily -- and have never left disappointed. The carne asada is consistently fantastic, and their more traditional dishes are just as solid. Service is reliably friendly, efficient, and refreshingly genuine -- the kind of staff that actually seems to enjoy being there. The one miss? The margaritas. I've worked my way through every flavor, and unfortunately the base tastes suspiciously like Safeway syrup. For a place that does food this well, the cocktails feel like an afterthought. They do have a beautiful patio that's perfect when the weather cooperates, and if you're a nacho-and-cocktail type (same), I strongly recommend ordering a mojito with fresh fruit. Be sure to ask for muddled fruit slices -- otherwise you'll likely get syrup again. It honestly takes just a few cubes of real fruit to completely elevate the drink, and at these prices, it feels like an obvious upgrade management should consider standard-which is why I docked them one star.

    Great Service + Legit Spice (In a Good Way)…read more Had a nice late lunch at Masa Mexican Kitchen with my wife and really enjoyed it. We sat ourselves in the bar and were greeted right away, with service from Krystina, which was excellent: quick, engaging, funny, and super attentive the whole time. The bar was pretty empty (just a few early afternoon drinkers... respect ), which made it a relaxed spot to hang out. I had an Icicle Creek IPA, plus the chicken enchiladas, and my wife ordered the chicken quesadillas. Both meals came out fast, hot, and packed with flavor and I really appreciated that they weren't shy with the spice. It actually had a nice kick. Overall, a great lunch with awesome service. We'll definitely be back.

    Visiting CK's cousin in Seattle and she took us here. The line had about 6 people when we arrived…read more The menu is limited with some meat and vegetarian options, which I find to be a good thing because they know what they're good at. Small parking lot shared with Benjamin Moore Paint I think and a small coffee shop. There is some benches for seating and a couple picnic tables. I had two tacos (chicharron & encebollados) and found it filling where I didn't feel overstuffed. The tortilla's are like dinner size (not street taco size) and doubled up. The amount of protein they put into it is literally PERFECT. They don't overfill but it's definitely enough, and the way they place the portions, it doesn't overflow or spill out. Minimal mess to clean up afterwards. I thought the chicharron pork rinds would be crispy, but it wasn't as there was a chile sauce on top. I still enjoyed it and found it flavorful, even though the texture had changed. CK let me try the cochinita pibil and it was flavorful, and more of my preference. My favorite had to be the encebollados (steak w/ sauteed onions). Flavorful, sliced in good portions, and wasn't dry it at all since there was a good amount of sauce on there. Next time I'd love to try the Rajas (poblano peppers)!

    Getting food from a food truck can really be hit or miss. Man, I'm so glad that we stopped here…read more These are not your usual Mexican street tacos but they were excellent. The staff were amazing and very helpful in explaining the menu. We especially loved the Encebollados. It was so juicy and flavorful. If you're in the area, this place is a must stop for great tacos.
