The truck.  In all its glory next to a lingerie coffee stand, and a U-Haul center.
Chris O.

I ate here once last weekend, it's a taco truck, and had a carnitas burrito, which is one of my standards. It was... basic and good? The pork was good, sort of dry but tasty. The shell and rice were fine. The beans were refried which would not have been my first choice. The 2 included salsas (in tiny cups, there was not enough) were flavorful and mild. There were lime wedges available which was nice. So if you put a lot of sauce on the burrito it was good. The ingredients were not well-distributed, so I had a lot of all-pork bites and a lot of no-pork bites, which is a pet peeve of mine. If they could switch to whole beans and coax some more interesting flavors out of the burrito then they could really have something here. The lady working inside was nice and the prep time was about 5 minutes which was fine. There was some covered seating that I did not use. It was cold out so I went back to my car.

I'm in that Reton area fairly often, and I've always driven past. Decided to stop by today, and try it. Filling food. Great prices. It didn't hurt that the couple operating the truck gave really friendly service. They have a new customer.

Pork and chicken tacos! $1.50 each plus rice.

Never unhappy!! Best tacos around. I loved the chimichanga, rice, and horchata. I won't go to any other taco truck.

Beef tacos!!!!

Pretty good and tasty food truck. I ordered the tacos and a horchata to drink. Fast service and they accepted my Visa card.

They didn't accept a coupon that was clearly a valid coupon for their establishment. I ordered food anyway. The torta was small and soggy.

Tacos El Gordo - Carne asada torta

We were driving up along Tukwila after work and craving for street tacos when we saw this Mexican…read morefood truck so we stopped by. We were not disappointed at all, we ordered the steak tacos and sure enough we wanted more! They give generous amount of meat. A must try, good location very close to Taco Time and Home Depot.

It was one of the one days where I did not really know what I wanted for lunch. The place I…read moreoriginally was going to was closed so I headed back to work and the closest place to stop was Taco Time. I figured why not, because I really just wanted some Tater Tots. While pulling into the parking lot, I noticed the food truck and thought well why not. Anything is better than Taco Time. I ordered the taco plate (3 tacos with rice and beans) with carne asada. My food came out pretty fast. I was also served two salsas, pickled jalapenos & carrots and a mint. I went to my car and opened my to go container and was impressed just at first glance. I honestly wasn't sure what I was getting myself into but at first looks, I was pleasantly pleased. I took my food to work and ate my desk. My first bites were of the beans and rice and I had to take a minute and pause. I literally felt like I hit the jackpot. Those rice and beans were slamming and did not disappoint! The tacos were good too. The grilled onions were pefection and the salsas were deliciouso! My only critique is the carne asada was slightly on the salty side but still delicious. Honestly, I sat there thinking while eating my food - do I go back on my way and grab a plate for dinner. I will have to find them on IG so I can follow them and get their schedule. Definitely, will return and try more!

I've been coming here for almost 10 years I wanna say and when I'm craving a lengua burrito that…read morenever disappoints I go here. Some places skimp on the lengua because it's since become and expensive cut but not El kiosko. It's tender and delicious. 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.

Do not buy the tamales unless you want to feel scammed. First of all there was barely any meat…read morefilling. It was enough for one bite. The meat was not seasoned well and was also very dry. The rest is all masa. The masa isn't even good. It was very dry and not moist like it's supposed to be. It has a weird sour tang to it as well. They also charged me almost $3 for a small thing of sour cream as well. Super disappointing.

Taste of Somalia is so good - I can't say it loud enough…read more The service is top notch. We had a lovely conversation with the owner and his cousin. We got chai on the house and they hooked it up with the sauces. We waited in the car and they delivered to our window. They used to open from 2-6pm(?) but changed their hours for Ramadan from 5-10pm to cater to their customers. The rice is extremely flavorful. I could eat the rice alone honestly. The meats are juicy with a hint of sweetness. The garlic sauce is perfect, I like the consistency. It's not super creamy like a ranch. It's more fluid, it comes right out of the container, no scraping needed. The green "hot sauce" gives the dish some acidity (although it can be spicier, it's more flavor than hot sauce) with the cilantro-vinegary feel and taste. The portions are huge. If you like The Halal Guys, picture that elevated. I am a loyal Halal Guys fan, don't get me wrong - I still love it, however Taste of Somalia is truly a level up. The Somali spices shine through delivering a much more robust and complex flavor profile. This is a must have. Thank you Taste of Somalia, can't wait to visit you again.

Everything was 10/10. Big portions, soulful vibes, delicious food. I got the mixed meat rice bowl…read morebecause I couldn't decide between beef or chicken. It was super flavorful, and fed my two toddlers and I with leftovers. The service was welcoming and friendly! I'm definitely coming back. Don't forget the milk cakes, it's just like tres leches my fav! The only thing I would do different is ask for more of the garlicky white sauce, I'm not sure what it's called but it was great!

I honestly wasn't sure about this place at first bc the location was so random, but that's where all the good spots are right? I've had papusas there: bean and cheese and pork. The bean and cheese was great! Lots of flavor and the side of veggies and salsa were great! The veggies added tang to the papusa as well as a good pallet cleaner before the next bite. The salsa was great and had just the right amount of spiciness that tied the fish together. The pork didn't have as much flavor but it was still delicious. The people that work there are also nice. The lady that cooks was very sweet the first time I was there and offered to make me really flavorful papusas and she did!! Their al pastor tacos are great too! Great overall flavor and lots of meat in the taco. This for me was the best taco I've tried so far in WA and I come from CA where tacos are a must! I've been back here 3 times already! I can't wait to try their tamales. I just have to remember to order them ahead of time!
