La Botana - Seattle

Absolutely delicious! I placed my order in Spanish, but they can accommodate English speakers too. The space is minimalist and the menu is somewhat limited. Don’t expect beans, rice, or chips. The horchata is fantastic! The quesadillas are enormous (I used a fork and knife for size comparison). The chicken tinga quesadilla was incredibly tasty. The salsa has a kick and really leaves a lasting impression.

Incredible barbacoa! Just one taco for $6 could leave you feeling stuffed. If you grab a couple of extra tortillas, you could easily stretch that taco into four, as there's easily about a pound of meat on each one.

It was one of those mornings when you crave a hearty meal that transports you to a local Mercado in Mexico! The cozy space might be small, but the colorful piñatas hanging from the ceiling and the delicious aromas of the food make it all worthwhile. I absolutely love it!

If you're into flavor and not looks...this is the place for you! From the best quesadillas to gigantic tacos this is my favorite place for real and authentic Mexican cuisine, thanks to don Alfredo; you're the man!

As a Mexican I can say these are the best tacos I've tried in Seattle, with real barbacoa. Take in consideration that tacos are huge.
