The service was great--everyone we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. The menu is pretty extensive, especially when it comes to tacos, so there are plenty of options to choose from. I tried the asada, carnitas, birria, and adobada tacos. All were decent, with the birria being my favorite. The other meats weren't bad by any means, but they were a bit on the drier side compared to some other taco spots I've been to. The rice and beans were pretty standard--exactly what you'd expect, nothing particularly standout. One thing I really liked, though, was the self-serve salsa bar. It's always a plus being able to customize your flavors. One thing to note is that you do need to bus your own table, but considering the price and portion sizes, it feels fair and worth it. Overall, a solid spot for a casual meal. I'll definitely be exploring more of this area of Renton--there seem to be a ton of authentic Mexican restaurants nearby. We went late at night, so options were a bit limited at the time, but this was a good find.

They've moved their location to a much larger location since then and it's so nice. Well deserved. The parking lot is huge so don't worry about that. When we came in we were told to choose a seat wherever we'd like then promptly served chips and salsa. The salsa was so good. We got to try their taco Tuesday for the first time and the Al pastor was so flavorful and they make the carnitas super crispy. We were also surprised to see they now have a full bar. We ordered a cantarito and although yummy, I didn't think they put the right amount of alcohol for how massive the cup is but that's alright it was good nonetheless:) Salsa bar was nice and full both times we came to the new location and kept clean between uses. I can't wait to come back now that there is way more seating.

There's two tables provided, not the most clean so most everyone takes it Togo. Post is only about Taco Tuesday however I've had their other menu items and really enjoyed those too. $1.30 tacos for certain meats: pollo, pastor, carnitas, cabeza and chorizo. The pastor and chorizo are very flavorful, leaning slightly salty if you prefer that. Carnitas and cabeza are my personal favorites, good mix of fatty and meaty that is just juicy enough. Pollo is also good not dry. They have four salsas that are self serve, the greens are my preferred, not too spicy. The reds are mostly spice and less flavorful, they made me tear up a bit. Also self serve is limes, pickled onions and carrots/veggies, and sliced radishes. Really like the pickled onions and sliced radishes with the tacos, I've found them to be fresh every time. Sometimes served with grilled onions and a grilled pepper which is the best, but not guaranteed. I'd come back to try other dishes but you can't beat their taco Tuesdays deal.

I knew going in, this was either going to be great or garbage and unfortunately it was the latter. For a place that has been in business for a decade (which I didn't know ahead of time) to only have 60 reviews, it's clear traffic is low here. Also, some of these 5 star reviews are sketchy. I didn't trust reviews from people with less than 5 reviews, or people that aren't local with low review counts. Do you really want me to believe you flew into Seattle, stumbled on this place and then had the best meal of your life? First was the price. I had a burrito and soda and it was $22. At $17 the burrito alone was just as much as a combo meal from a full service restaurant. Based on the price, thought I would be working with a monster, but the burrito was no bigger than Chipotle burrito and not nearly as good. They used refried instead of whole beans and added watered down sour cream which really impacted the flavor. Service was friendly, but that is the only positive. Prices were unreasonable. Flavor was inexcusable and portion was regrettable. I ate less than half and had to force myself to eat that much. After spending so much cash, I felt obligated to force it down, until I realized I was punishing myself.

There was a great selection of food, but the pozole was definitely a standout--absolutely amazing. The tamales were also really good and surprisingly moist, which can be hit or miss at buffets. They also have all-you-can-eat birria, which was a huge plus. I loved that they provide corn tortillas for the tacos, too. The service was another highlight. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and incredibly quick, which made the whole experience even better. Very cute mexican decor as well. Overall, this is a fantastic spot if you're looking for a filling and authentic Mexican lunch with plenty of variety. The food stays fresh, the selection is great, and the value is hard to beat. We'll definitely be coming back!

My fiance had ordered the supreme burrito. Normally burritos are freshly made to order so we thought it would take some time for our food to be made. However, the food came 4 minutes later, quickest made burrito. The burrito was chewy and it was cold in the middle. It was also a pre made microwaved burrito.
