Chili Colorado

Wet burrito was simply delicious! The sauce is quite unique. Chili Colorado was really good with yummy refried beans. Chips and salsa were a great start to the meal. Very friendly wait staff. Will definitely be back!!!!

Chips and Salsa

I had to go back again Saturday and have that wonderful, flavorful food...including that Tres Leche Cake....It was so good once again. The staff and service is so nice and helpful. It is the perfect hidden gem in Everett.

Wet burrito
Meekyung J.

We ordered wet burrito, 3 enchiladas meal, and chips and salsa. We thought this was a restaurant but it was more of a fast food place. Overall food was decent but not sure if I want to go back. If you are not sure what to eat and you are already in the area, then it's not a bad choice but it is not worth the drive to go out of your way to try it.

This was my first visit to this restaurant, I'd eaten here a long time ago but it was a different Mexican restaurant w a different name and ownership. We ordered the Chile Rellano and Chile Colorado burrito and they both were outstanding. The chips and salsa were also delicious. The quality of the food tasted like real home made, not commercial kitchen Mexican food. The owners were very accommodating and helpful, definitely coming back again. I felt like I was eating at a friend's home, it was a great experience!

First visit, Quite impressed with this cute Charming casual takeout and restaurant style place staff was welcoming and friendly enchiladas are juicy tasty and steaming hot, would recommend!

Menu

This place is really good and consistent, and they get your food out quickly. They have a drive though. It can be difficult to get out of the parking lot and into the lane you want because of its location but it's not too bad.

I really want to give this place more than 3 stars because it has such good reviews on Yelp but after eating dinner here after the gym, it was just ok. I was really hoping I had found a good hole-in-the-wall Mexican food spot like the ones I used to visit regularly in San Diego, but this place fell a lil short. We ordered: - carne asada tacos - chicken taco salad - Shrimp Campechana (the one with just shrimp, they might call it something else here) - chips and salsa - churros First off, the service was great and they were super friendly here! When I ordered my Mexican shrimp cocktail though, they asked me what temperature I would like it. I personally have never been asked that before? The options were cold, warm, or hot. I asked the lady what the norm was and she said warm, so I went with that. It is served with saltine crackers, which I was fine with. Well I got my dish, and the cocktail served warm was a bit off to me. I guess I am used to cold campechanas, so eating this dish warm wasn't that tasty to me. Cody was also not the biggest fan of his taco salad. Just not what he imagined it to be. I enjoyed the tacos and the churros though! The salsa bar was ok, I wasn't think biggest fan of the salsas they had out, but I did enjoy their hot carrots! Maybe I need to come back and try them again, but yeah our experience was just ok.

Regular burrito, made with carne asada. Has rice, beans, fresh salsa, cilantro. I was amazed at the size of this.

Stopped in for the first time for some dinner. I wasnt sure what to order, I've never been here before, so I bought a regular burrito. Its ten dollars, you get to choose the meat (or no meat). Its pretty big, but they have a bigger burrito (Super Burrito) too. The rice is cooked in broth as it tastes very flavorful, the beef is tender and lean, the salsa is perfectly spiced, the beans are not overcooked. Oh yeah I really loved what this burrito DIDN'T come with: cheese, sour cream. I really got a good taste of the ingredients without them being smothered in cheese. Delicious in a simple package. You can eat this one-handed but get to catch bits that roll out. Those bits are worth catching. Would eat there again. Others were eating in, having a seafood stew that looked good. I love a Mexican restaurant that can cook seafood.

Fried fish with rice and beans. Soooo good!

Love this place. I like supporting local companies. I'm glad they made it through the pandemic. They have a drive through which is convenient. Definitely a go to for great Mexican food.

Veggie tacos
Amita J.

This place has been in my backyard for years now and drive by it every single day. After stopping by here a couple times in the last few months, I think to myself, what have I been depriving myself of! Their food tastes authentic right out of a home kitchen. Their veggie tacos are delicious and well topped with ingredients. I ordered only 2 and thank goodness cause I was stuffed! I've also ordered the veggie quesadilla which was well done, I did take this on the go so it did get a little soggy but the flavors were all there especially when utilities the salsa bar. Plenty of salsa options to amp up their dishes. I'll definitely be frequenting this place more! The service is very friendly and welcoming. They take their time in answering any questions you have about their dishes as well.

Tried this place today carne asada and she had chicken both was wet burritos good favor sauce and all but no chips and salsa
Mitchell H.

It's all good just no chips and salsa what a bummer even the sauce taste home made will have a sat down next time

See all

Luna Mexican Grill - Campechana (cocktail with shrimp, octopus, and scallops), you can order it hot, warm or cold. In my opinion it tastes better cold.

In short Clean, bright, friendly family-style Mexican place…read more Full bar, plenty of TVs. In long I definitely miss the awesome Thai place that used to be here, but Luna offsets that nostalgia. They're doing a great job. There's a cool courtyard, with iron fencing and gating that seems to suit the Mexican decor even better than it did the previous tenant. There's a good-sized winding dining room indoors too. Brightly-colored paint, nice matching tables and chairs, some big screens probably tuned to the game. Service is right on point, cheerful and low-key, ready to make you feel right at home. You get a menu right away, water with chips and salsa in a minute or two. The drink menu isn't the main focus, but you get basic versions of most anything. I had a Luna Margarita with lots of fresh fruit in there--even had to clear the straw at one point. The chips and salsa are generic. Just pico and tomato sauce stirred up. Would be nice to see them make something in house, but not too many places do that (fewer than you might think). The carne seems to be the star of the show, and it was tasty. Ordered medium and came out closer to well, but still fully tender and juicy. Tortillas were fine, the roast corn and scallions were good, and the rice and beans held up their end of the bargain. Little bit of guac and fresca in the middle of the plate. They're working hard for your Mexican food dollar, and if you're anywhere nearby, they're easily worth a stop.

She took us to the back which featured a bar area and twinkling lights on the ceiling! Loved the plants and decors on the wall. Our server was so attentive and kind! Me and my girl friend's husband ordered the Mar Y Tierra, thinly cut steak with garlic shrimp and mushrooms on the slide with rice, refried beans, guacamole, pico de gallo and choice of corn or flour tortillas! The steak was my favorite -- so juicy, tender and flavorful! They have a great variety of drinks! I got the watermelon basil margarita. They also have Jarritos soda which, my girl friend tried the guava and it was good! You have to get here before peak or you may not get a parking spot. They do have parking at the back but I bet if it's a peak night, it'll be crowded. We will definitely be back next time!

Went for lunch Sunday midday. Interior was small with an eclectic decor that was well lit and…read moreclean. We were greeted and sat promptly. It was fairly busy and staff were very attentive. Ordered Cadillac margaritas which came out quickly, not very strong, good flavor overall (not too sweet). Chips and salsa were good, guacamole could use more lime. Shared a chile relleno which was standard. Daughter ordered pollo a la crema which was not overly creamy, chicken was tender. Sister got albondigas (meatball soup), broth had a nice roasted corn base. I ordered their menudo which came with tender (clean tasting) intestines, and one pata (foot). I added some of their chili oil which was smoky and balanced. Tried their other salsitas which were also good, habanero had good heat and pineapple had a nice touch of sweetness.

In short The name helps a lot--it really is a family place,…read morelots of booths and tables packed into one dining room. But the kitchen is doing a ton of great things from scratch and the menu is huge. It's way more than just a corner Mexican spot. In long The ratings have been high forever and we've been wanting to try it for at least a year. Finally found ourselves with the right amount of time in the right location yesterday. We caught them after the lunch rush, and dude was super nice to come out and hold the door so I could wheel my bride in. There are a few flatscreens up, and in back there are single-occupant washrooms. It's not a big room, but it's festive and they clearly have regulars, judging by the warm greetings are a couple more tables filled up. We had our pick of tables and we settled in to go over the hugely long menus. Do you want something familiar or something fewer places offer? The kitchen runs the gamut here. You get fresh, light chips on the table with some delicious scratch salsa that even packs a bit of heat. We finally settled on pozole and tacos al carbon. They bring out avocado salsa and pineapple salsa, which both add a ton of good flavor. The red table salsa is where the heat is, though. The tacos were delicious, tons of juicy chopped steak inside. I went with this overly-safe pick and didn't regret it at all. The pozole was incredible, lots of real bone stewed in with the meat, tons of great flavor in the broth and super soft, tender, flavorful pork. Lots of tasty condiments. Beautifully homey and comforting soup to warm your bones on a cold wet day. We took more than half of it home--very generous portion. We also checked out a margarita and a mai tai, and both were excellent. You really have to try the food here to get the full effect of how good it is. You can kinda tell the kitchen is ambitious by reading the menu online, and that's promising for sure. But all those house-made scratch touched throughout every subrecipe will exceed even high expectations like ours. Great place, and we're dumb for taking so long to try it.
