    If you are looking for friendly places with smiling staff..don't go here. We got sat in what was called the bar area and it was extremely loud and our server was present, but was not friendly at all and no other staff in the entire place seemed like they wanted to be there. If the food wasn't so good we wouldn't go here. It's a great place to eat in the area, that's our main reason for going. But we might need to find a new place with staff that actually seem like they like working there and who smile!

    I had been here before so I recommended we go before seeing a show at Barboza… it was bad. Just straight bad. We got the steak and chicken tacos, and they came out maybe five minutes after ordering. They were cold and tasted like they had been out for an hour. They had no flavor, and we had to drown them in sauce to taste anything. Rice and beans were the best part and it was still mid. 6 tacos and rice/beans was $50 after tip… NOT worth it.

    Delicious as always with great service! I always enjoy coming here. I reserved a space for 10, possibly 12, which they totally accommodated. Only 8 showed up. I felt so bad about all the space we took up and didn't need, but they were so nice and told me not to worry about it.

    Service was poor due to understaff, chicken in Tinga tacos and enchiladas was dry Guacamole was bland needed salt and lime juice. When plate of tacos was untouched the waiter didn’t acknowledge and ask if it was ok. Overall disappointing food and service

    We used to love this restaurant and would make sure we went at least once a visit to Seattle from Florida. The food was very underwhelming this trip and I’m not sure if we will be back next time.
