Super Burrito, rice and beans

I tried this place based off of the current good reviews. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing for me. I ordered a super burrito with al pastor. What I received was a bean and rice burrito with maybe a 1/3 cup of pork with a pineapple salsa sprinkle on top of that. It also came with beans and rice on the side. No sour cream, no guacamole, no lettuce, no cheese... just a very plain rice and bean burrito. Not worth the $17 (before tip) that I paid. I don't know how any of the other food is here since I was by myself and only experienced the "super burrito". I'm not sure I want to return to find out either. Side note- service was quick and friendly.

Carne Asada
Maggie W.

Ordered the carne asada to go and the portion is so big and food is super delicious! Amazing service here! And the inside is nice. There is a sauce bar available to take sauces to go. Highly recommend!

Tried their signature Quesabirria Tacos, the portion is good, food is freshly made. The price is a bomber tho

Tacos starting top left to right. Carnitas, Carnitas, Asada, Chorizo, Pastor, Pastor

Ordered from here on DoorDash for Cinco de Mayo and was honestly drawn to this location from the positive reviews and their LARGE amount of meat options for the tacos. I wanted to try them all, but I didn't. I did however end up getting 6 tacos which included Carnitas, Chorizo, Asada, and Pastor. Needless to say I devoured them all and will be ordering from here again. All of those tacos were delicious and I think the Chorizo and Pastor were my favorites. The Carnitas was good but felt a little dry with very little juices. If you don't like pineapple then don't get Pastor. They had a large slice or 2 on top which I'm okay with and it adds to a very juicy bite of pineapple when biting into the taco. Another thing to take note of is these tacos are CORN TORTILLAS. YES CORN, I don't know many places around here that so corn tortillas so it was a nice change of pace and I can say I actually enjoyed them. More so than flour tortillas? That will have to be answered another day. Tacos also come with green and red sauce! Both are delicious but boy does red have a kick to it. Made me cough after the first bite so be warned.

Churro & sopapia
Genevieve J.

Best Mexican food & I'm from Southern California! The flavors were authentic & delicious, reminding me of home. The customer service was warm and attentive, making us feel right at home in this cute, family-owned restaurant. Blessed to have found this gem--can't wait to come back!

Salsa bar

Small place with good service, I love the way the lady hands you your food and says your dinner is ready. Can be a bit pricey but you get what you pay for! My food was delicious and very tasty! I highly recommend stopping by and supporting this small family owned restaurant!

Carne Asada tacos
Naomi P.

Great food!! Tacos were delicious. Salsa was good as well. Friendly service!! Would definitely recommend stopping here.

Carne Asada Fries with sour cream on the side
Kayla W.

We were in the area to eat somewhere else but the place was closed so we came here. We experienced great customer service. The carne asada fries weren't amazing but they did the job. I do regret ordering the pineapple agua fresca as it wasn't great and had a faint tap water type after taste. We were the only ones there so the food came out quickly.

Our flight got canceled and we were trying to find something close by our hotel. We came across this place and glad we did. The food was great. I'm a critic when it comes to chilaquiles and these were PERFECT! The server who was also the cashier was very friendly. Overall great experience and great food.

Still a good place to get your mexican food fix in when you're in this area. I tried something different besides their burrito. Had the chimichanga and enchilada combo. It was still good but not five stars. But worth stopping by while you are here.

Found rubber/plastic in burrito
Soyoung K.

Found rubber/plastic in my burrito, my husband found hairs (plural!) in his burrito. The food was not spectacular. I had a green chicken burrito and I found the chicken very dry, my husband ordered a green al pastor burrito and found it was very heavy on the rice. We tried on whim after a trip to federal way and I'm always down to try a new spot but I'll pass on coming back here again.

The food was fantastic, the flavors were on point, and the place was full of energy. There were giveaways like T-shirts, sunglasses, and keychains, though we didn't receive any, which felt a bit selective. We came back on May 12th during happy hour and sat at the bar. Once again, the food was outstanding, and the service was top-notch. Alex and Jason took care of us at the bar, and they made us feel so welcome. We even ordered the entire happy hour menu and left completely satisfied. However, we've also visited several times since, including Father's Day. Unfortunately, our most recent visit wasn't as good. We sat at the bar again, and Edwin served us. My wife ordered her favorite margarita with Tajín on the rim and a shaker presentation, but it took three tries to get it right. Each time, there were errors, and we ended up being charged for one of the incorrect drinks. Service was slower than usual--no refills on my drinks, and we had to keep asking for salsa. It was surprising since the place wasn't even busy. Overall, we still love the food and atmosphere at Moctezuma's, but this last visit was a letdown. After all the great experiences, we're dropping our rating to three stars for now and will explore other options next time.

They charge you per soda and for chips and salsa. Our bill was $63 for 2 tacos, 1 burrito, chips, 2 diet cokes & salsa. Overall I'd say if you want authentic Mexican cuisine, go somewhere else. Especially in an area like Burien your options are endless.

Food was great, wait staff was very attentive (even though it filled up right after we got there), and the atmosphere is fun.

Bacon, sausage and french toast were AMAZING!

Finally came to this spot for the second time! (Technically four times, but the wait was always an…read morehour or MORE.) I even tried coming alone one time, and today my friend and I got in RIGHT away! The universe was working in sooo many ways this time around. Now... I SHOULD have looked at the menu ahead of time! Wayyyy too many options IMO. I love having options, but for a smaller spot like this, I feel like focusing on your best dishes and PERFECTING those would make more sense! Anyways, that's just my opinion! Ha! I got the carne asada omelet with tortillas, beans and potatoes. The potatoes were flavorful. Not crispy, but tasty. The beans -- BOOOMMMBBB! The tortillas -- PERFECT. The omelet was just OK. The flavor was a little lacking, but it was fine. If I had waited an hour for that omelet, though... it would NOT have been OK. Sooo maybe we can remove that one from the menu! Now the hot cocoa... DELICIOUS, different and fun! The coffee was fun too, especially with the hazelnut cream. But when I pulled up the menu, I forgot they make those fun bomb drinks, and I didn't see the drink menu at the counter -- which I wish I had! So if you come here, definitely get one of the fun coffees/drinks or the hot cocoa! I wasn't quite sure how to rate the French toast (photo) because my friend wasn't really feeling well, but I did ask him what he thought and he said they were good! Now, this man is from LA, so the standards are HIGH but he said they were better than the French toast down the street! And I have to mention -- the breakfast burrito I had last time and the mascarpone coffee were DELICIOUS... but that was over three years ago, so I'm not sure how much weight we can put on that review! Overall, I'm glad I FINALLY got back in! Sometimes you just gotta let the universe work it out.

Oct. 6, 2026 11:30 ish…read more Address is a little confusing, so once you get in the area, use your eyes and you'll find the place ... The outside a little scary, is it open or am I at the right place ? Finally I get out of the car and try the door You open the door and you go from Burien, Wa to all the colors, the murals of Oaxaca, Mexico, every wall has a mural, the colors, it kinda feels like I walked into a good episode of The Twilight Zone. My fear now was, how am I going to communicate to the girl what I want because all I know is English and thank God she was bilingual and her English was perfect so it was one less stress in my life that I had to worry about because I knew I found someplace I'm going to enjoy... I showed her the photo that someone took almost 8 years ago, told her I want this exactly as the picture and off she went ... Next thing I knew, she brought out my drink my utensils and also a sample of the soup and let me say that was delicious on a cold day I could see myself eating a bowl of this soup... I did see another customer order some kind of soup, its a big bowl, I'll be back for sure now, that soup looks delicious. My (mexican pizza in English) came and it was big and like any pizza, you had your pick of ingredients and I guess mine would be more like a combination pizza, so i think i know how I'll make my next pizza, next time I order it .. Don't expect Tex Mex or Taco Bell type food here, its from the region of Oaxaca, Mexico and what i got, it was different it was delicious it was a little bit spicy for me but overall IT WAS GOOD ! I little pricey but the service was on point, the food was delicious and it was an good experience, so it was worth it ... Hope you enjoy it as much as I did...

Instead of enjoying the game, we ended up leaving early because of how we were treated. My wife uses a wheelchair and relies on a trained service dog. From the moment we walked in, the owner, Hilda Ramos, was hostile and made it clear that our service dog was not welcome. We explained that the dog is a trained service animal, but she repeatedly came back to our table to question us, making us feel uncomfortable throughout our visit. By the end of our visit, she told us that our service dog would not be allowed back. The dog was calm, well-behaved, and under control the entire time. We had reserved our table in advance to enjoy the game, but because of the owner's behavior, we didn't even get to finish watching it. We didn't even finish our food or our drinks, yet we still paid our entire bill and left because we no longer felt welcome. As a fellow Mexican, and my african wife, it was especially disappointing to be treated this way. I left feeling disrespected, unwelcome, and deeply disappointed. No customer should be made to feel like they don't belong, especially when they're simply trying to enjoy a meal and are accompanied by a legitimate service animal. I hope the owner takes the time to understand the rights of customers who rely on service animals and treats every guest with dignity and respect. Based on our experience, we will not be returning and cannot recommend this restaurant. The owner is racist and I will make sure ADA knows about her
