Expensive food with no taste
I had some food from this truck at the Wild Wages Park. The experience was disappointing due to the high cost and lack of flavor. I paid over $40 for three small tacos and a burrito. The burrito was so unappetizing with a lot of dripping gross water that I couldn't finish it. My main point is that if you're going to charge such a high price, the food should be worth it.

Delicious Super Veggie Burrito
My experience was with the super veggie burrito when they were out at Marymoor. The ingredients were simple, and the burrito was delicious. I would definitely get it again!

Extremely Rude Kid, Never Returning
My experience at the restaurant was extremely negative due to the rude kid working there. I will never return to this establishment, especially after visiting the city of Fircrest park on 6/23/24. It was a terrible experience, and I will never ever again go back.

Delicious Quesabirrias and Great Value!
As a Mexican, I really liked the quesabirrias and the salsas! The portion size is very good. I would definitely eat there again.

Disappointing Bland Burrito
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. I used to find their food really tasty, but my visit today was a stark contrast. The burrito I tried was so bland, and it felt like they were trying to save money by just filling it with rice and lettuce. I barely saw any beans, pico, or avocado. It was definitely not worth the $13 price tag; I would have only paid $5 for this. The food quality was a 1, and the atmosphere was also rated a 1.

Horrible Experience: Order Cancelled Twice
My experience at this restaurant was horrible. They have cancelled our order twice now, which is unacceptable. The customer service was the worst I've seen in a while. I would definitely not recommend this place, especially if you are looking to actually get food. I cannot express how horrible it was enough.

Best Mexican Food Ever!
I rarely write reviews, but this place truly deserves one. It's easily the best Mexican food I've ever had! The birria tacos were exceptional. They also excel at simple dishes, making them unreal. The vegetarian options are plentiful.

Disappointing Pollo Taco Experience
My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing, especially considering my generally low expectations for Mexican food in Seattle downtown. The so-called "Pollo Taco" was particularly bad, consisting of nothing but bland boiled chicken breast. I would have to be paid to eat that again.

Terrible Taco Experience
My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I found the taco to be the most bland and tasteless taco I’ve ever eaten. It seemed like they simply threw some boiled chicken on a tortilla and called it a taco. I would avoid at all costs.

Juicy Birria Tacos & Fast Service!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I had the birria tacos, which were incredibly juicy and flavorful. The service was also impressively fast. I can't wait to eat there again!
