As its name would indicate this spot specializes in tortas - and they are definitely solid. Enormous in size you'll get your fill and there are so many different kinds to choose from. My breaded steak was real good but something tells me there's better. Gonna have to make a return trip. read more

They never answer the stupid phone to place a order it sucks, nunca contestan el teléfono solo viendo eso es muy difícil pensar que es un buen lugar read more

The steak torta I ordered isn't real steak. It's soaked in flour and oil. Gross. Will not recommend nor go here. The food does not look good and does not taste good here. I wouldn't go read more

Pretty awful all around. First, right when you walk in the door you see an out of order soda machines and couple empty racks randomly around. At the order counter, I asked what was on the Mexican fries. I was met with a blank stare and then she pointed at the menu at the Mexican fries. Ordering was worse. Each menu item has numbers so now that I knew she didn't speak English, I ordered by number. Again, I was met with a blank stare and more menu pointing. She pulled the cook from the back and we got our order figured out. We ordered the #5 toluquena torta and the #17 pork skin quesadilla. The meat on the #5 was very tough to bite through and the whole thing was very flavorless. My son ate about two bites of quesadilla and we threw the rest away. It was not good at all. I would have complained but being met with a blank stare wasn't something I wanted to put myself through again. Just gross, low-quality food. read more

This place hits the spot when youre craving for some good tacos. However, I feel like there is something lacking. The flavor hits when you bite in to your first bite but they feel plain the more you eat. Even with the added sauces they provide, it did not quite fill that satisfaction I was looking for. If you want to visit and try for yourself, keep in mind that the wait can be up to 30 minutes long. That also does not take into account of how many people ordered before you. read more

So, after reading the Surly Gourmand's review of Tortas Locas, I had to check this joint out.... http://surlygourmand.blogspot.com/2009/09/tortas-locas.html I went full-bore and ordered the Cubana torta. As expected, it was a monster and should definitely be shared (I only got through 3/4 of it before throwing in the towel. It contains breaded beef, ham, chorizo, a hot dog, some other kind of pork, queso blanco, lettuce, tomato, sautéed onions, avacado & mayo for $9.50. It was pretty epic. I added a picture of the Cubanan torta to the Yelp profile, check it out. I will most likely go for a smaller torta next time. ;) They must have a new menu board up because it was both in English & Spanish. read more

Tortas Locas - The Cubana, holy crap! - Mexican Near Me - Renton, Washington

Super delicious meal here! Friendly staff, very clean building, and so many awesome sounding munchies to choose from. The salsa was better than most places, tasting very fresh with a little smokey undertone. The prices are very fair and I'll definitely be back! Great job Tortas Locas!! read more

I had a carne asada torta here the other day, and really enjoyed it! It was delicious--the bread was the best bread I can recall having on a torta--and filling. They have a much more extensive menu than I expected (and it is in both English and Spanish), but I kept it simple for my first visit. They brought out two kinds of hot sauce and a bowl of jalapeno slices when they brought out my sandwich. I definitely recommend adding jalapenos to give it some kick. Neither sauce was that hot, but they both tasted great. The meat was good, and the portions of everything were generous. (I always love places that are generous with avocado.) The people were friendly, the prices were good, and there is a ton of seating. Street parking on Ambaum isn't my favorite, but you could park on a side street and then walk over if you'd rather. They are a cash-only establishment, but there is an ATM in the restaurant. read more

I was craving a Torta and was heading to my usual Mexican joint. I have passed this place numerous times and thought I would give them a try. I was told it was Mexico City Style Tortas. The menu has a lot of choices and is in Spanish, so if you don't speak Spanish, ask for the printed out English menu. It was similar to any Torta I have had, yet different. The bread was the same as any, but bigger. The meat selection was not you usual taco filling. It was breaded beef, sausage, chorizo, and other wonderful meats. I had the Torta Loca with a bunch of different meats. It was delicious... add the jalapenos. They also have a great selection of Mexican soft drinks. read more

Tortas Locas - The Torta Loca - Mexican Near Me - Renton, Washington

I ordered a torta with carne asada, pork, mozzarella, mushrooms, onions, and jalapeños. I said that I didn't want anything else on it, and it still came out with mayo. I was also expecting pork leg, but I got pork head cheese instead. I guess I should've been more specific. The torta bread was delicious, but it got a little soggy from the mushrooms, onions, and mayo, which I didn't like at all. The carne asada had a nice grilled flavor to it. It took a while to prepare, but they seemed pretty busy. $10 is a little steep for a sandwich that isn't even a meal on its own, though. read more

Tonight was my first eating experience at Tortas Locas. I have loved tortas ever since I had my first one as street food in Toluca Mexico. I was pleasantly surprised with a torta Cubana I ordered tonight, which contained a generous portion of ham and Milanesa. And the torta was HUGE; it was about 14 inches long, and about 4 inches wide. I ate one half on site, and the other half is sitting in my fridge. read more

This place Is the best place to go to if you are hungry and want really giant sandwiches they also offer mexican sodas too! read more

We had high hopes for these Tortas but ended up disappointed with the Cubana Tortas we ordered. The portion size was generous but overall the sandwich was bland and I thought mine tasted a little stale. If it wasn't for the sauces on the table, the sandwiches had no heat or flavor to them. I saw chorizo in my torta but definitely didn't taste. With bland food and $30 for 2 Tortas, we won't be coming back. read more

This place needs an upgrade. I sat down on a booth next to the window and it was completely ripped, dirty and had hair all over. It looks dirty inside. The food portions were good but the food tasted bland. I will not recommend this place and won't be back again. read more

I am writing this review after two pretty unpleasant experiences. On my first visit to Tortas Locas I ordered the crazy torta, the one with everything on it. While waiting for my order I heard someone coughing up a lung in the back, which I thought was kind of gross but not that big of deal. When I finally received my meal I enjoyed the sandwich. It was on a nice crusty roll with a ton of meat and fresh veggies. The next day however, I developed a pretty nasty cold which lasted for two weeks. Obviously I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence but it is still pretty gross to think about. Today against my better judgment I decided to give Tortas Locas another chance. I started off by ordering a mango smoothie, a pork leg and chorizo torta, and a chicken tostada to go. I ordered the same for a co-worker. When I received the smoothie it was luke warm, watery, and tasteless. Room temperature milk in a smoothie doesn't seem too safe to me. After another long wait in the empty restaurant, approximately 20 minutes, my meal was ready and I drove the 2 minute drive back to work to eat. First I tried the tostada. The meat was a kind of gelatinized chicken headcheese, not regular chicken as I was led to believe. This would have been fine as I don't have a problem with headcheese, except this isn't what I ordered and it had no flavor whatsoever. It just tasted like crunchy gelatin. Next my co-worker and I tried the tortas. There was no chorizo to be found, the pork was room temperature, full of cartilage, and had absolutely no seasoning. Worst of all there were end pieces of onions and tomatoes on BOTH of our sandwiches. It honestly seemed like the veggies were pulled straight from the trash. The tomatoes were way over ripened and some of the onion ends even had the papery skin attached. That was all we could stomach and ended up throwing the sandwich away at that point. Overall, this place is pretty gross. I don't understand how it can be so highly rated. It seems fairly clean on the inside, but the quality of the food is not very good. They seem like they just don't care. I can see a restaurant accidently putting an end piece of a tomato on one sandwich, but two sandwiches containing only end pieces of both tomatoes and onions is disgusting. read more

Suprisingly, I think that the gorditas here are possibly even better than the tortas. They arent perfect, but, theyre the closest to getting it right that my wife and I have visited so far in Seattle... If youre a gordita lover from Mexico or a transplant from a southern state looking to find something authentic, give this place a shot. The Burien/White Center area is still the closest thing to a Mecca of Mexican food that Seattle has got... More people should make the drive. Its worth it. read more

I entered this place as I love Tortas. After reviewing the menu, I left. I won't pay ten bucks for HOT DOGS. That's right, did you read the sign carefully? Everything has HOT DOG sausage in it. BLAH. read more

Food is okay . Used to be better! The place needs some cleaning and maybe remodel . Other than that it's alright .

Awesome Tortas! Friendly staff, fresh tortillas in the quesdillas. YUM!

These are the bomb. This place is a must when I visit the Seattle area. The tortas are good and so are the quesadillas and gorditas. They were pretty cheap too. read more

It's such a good sandwitch place!! it would be nice if they had more english menu's or an english menu with better descriptions of what you're getting but the Loco and the Cubana are me and my mom's favorite!!! only takes cash but they have an ATm machine in the store so that's nice read more

I am loca for these tortas, they're freaking huge though so you definitely will have leftovers to go crazy for later too!

One of my favorite places to eat. Food is always yummy and fresh. The chicken tinga is definitely worth trying if u like a little spice

Nice big sandwiches, cooked to order. I find myself craving the cubana which comes with chicken cutlet, ham, avacado and more. I can't finish it! read more

Ok, hands down the best tortas in Burien! I always have the Hawaiian tortas and it's freaking delish! There is lots of space in the restaurant to sit, but because it's right off of Ambaum, the parking is limited. That's the only con. Luckily we live down the street, so we can just make the walk down there. Give it a try, you will be back for more :) read more

drove to this place lastnight and they weren't open at 8pm that's annoying please update your hours

craving a torta, i yelped this place and convinced my wife to go here with me. being that she loves tortas, she was pretty enthusiastic. this place is no frills place, no ambiance or atmosphere, just good mexican tortas. walking in on a sunday afternoon, it was packed from all the local latin population, we felt a little out of place for we're asian, but seeing all of these latin locals only reinforced the fact that this place is good and authentic. today, i ordered the famed cubana torta. at $9.95, it is a little pricey, but it was pretty delicious. ham, hot dog, breaded beef, chorizo, mexican cheese and sauteed veggies is sandwiched in between a super soft torta bun. by itself, it's nothing spectacular, but adding the verde or red hot sauce really made the sandwich good. add a mexican coke or pepsi, or horchata or one of the couple fruit juices and life is good. read more

the torta is sooo good, and the price is right. The dining room is right out of mexico but the food is worth it

Try their new location the address is 7248 Martin Luther King Jr. Way South. I believe their number is (206)722-2117. It's only been open for about 2 weeks. We met the store owner buying his torta bread at our favorite bakery and he told us about the new address. My wife is from Mexico only two hours away from Mexico city and I lived in Mexico for 2.5 years. I love when a Mexican place doesn't say "Authentic Mexican" but rather tells you the region their food is from. Tortas Locas is food from Mexico city. We have been craving some good Mexican food. This food does that. We have been to many places in town trying to find that flavor and we were both very satisfied here. My wife ordered the torta cubana and it was great! The flavors were spot on! The salsas are on the mild side. Even the "Spicy" salsa was mild. I ordered the tacos because that's my thing and they were great! The chorizo is unbelievable and I consider myself a kind of connoisseur. When living in Mexico I ate chorizo tacos at least twice a week and would have eaten them daily if I had had the money. Those are my credentials, I ate a TON of chorizo. You ahve to try them out. There is no need to speak Spanish they have a huge new menu in English and Spanish and the descriptions are good in both languages. Our server was also very comfortable speaking to us in English. Long review short; we loved them! read more
