They may not have many vegetarian options , but the 3 we tried are really solid choices. Potato tostadas , quesadillas and mushroom empanadas were really great! Nice use of flavorful salsa & texture.
They don't have the "mini-tlayudas" on the menu because they don't always have them available. But if you are in luck and they have them, you must try them!
Oaxacan food is a specialty - that's the beauty of it! Don't expect typical burritos , tacos , & nachos of Mexican food you can get anywhere.
Nice mole sauce - I hope they'll use it in a few more dishes (vegetarian too please!) & hope they'll add veggie tacos to the list
Sauces & beans are vegetarian ; rice is not (chicken ). They'll happily modify menu items for you, so just ask! Patio will be popular in great weather
Pozole : just the right amount of herbs and chili powder . Lean pork is an added plus.
Good happy hour . All of our tacos were yummy and great margaritas .
The meat was awesome. The coffee preparation is traditional. Very nice place.
Solid spot for carne asada and tacos . Also salsa bar .
Enchiladas are the best and cocktails with Mezcal are great.
Drinks and food to go with drinks :) I recommend the patio !
Pork tacos are amazing. The pork is so tender and flavorful!
The guacamole is a little bland. We mixed it with some salt and pico de gallo and it was much better!
Simply delicious!! Get the Molotes with a house margarita !
All the meat dishes are deliciously tender
Specialty Margarita with habañero lime syrup , is muy bueno!!
My new favorite roof deck in Capitol Hill .
This place is more than happy to over serve. Take that as you will.
It's just ok, I prefer "cactus " or "fogon" for mexican places in Seattle.
Sit outside if you can!
House Margarita 's are the best!!
Ask about the Sparkle Donkey
Pretty basic Mexican American joint - has a salsa bar though
Food is great. Prices are not.
Tostadoes are great!!!
Great chicken mole
If you are Mexican, don't go, just disappointment, worst in Seattle.
Not what I expected... You pay a lot for a little... I thought it was the opposite. My BF waiting 30+ to get a small portion of chicken in Mole sauce .
The shrimp cocktail , oh mah gord.
No wifi available. :(
The margaritas and food is awesome
Rica comida!
Chiles rellenos
¡Tienes UniMas!
