The molé was honestly the best I've had, but the pork that our server recommended was dry and overcooked. Also, the servings were a bit smaller than we had expected. However, it seems very authentic and it was enjoyable.

When my friends ask about my opinions on tacos, they know I’m the ultimate taco critic. I spent four years in San Diego, where the only place you can find a bad taco is Taco Bell. Every Mexican restaurant there is authentic and delicious. Unfortunately, after traveling outside of San Diego, I've encountered some subpar tacos. However, this place has some fantastic tacos. The tortillas are made from scratch, the meat is delicious, and the drinks are strong. I'm on my third drink as I write this! The hardworking staff at this restaurant truly care about the food they serve, and it's wonderful to witness. Normally, I don’t leave reviews, but after my experience and what I tasted, I felt compelled to share. This little taco spot deserves more recognition. Highly recommended!

After a night of drinks amongst other fellow bartenders from town, one questioned where the best pozole in town could be found. Another responded with somewhere in the south end. Patrons chimed in, and said Beacon Hill. I said, White Center. Thus, POZOLE TASTE TEST was born. We hit up 5 restaurants, solely for their pozole ha . Located in a cozy part of Queen Anne, you'll find El Mezcalito tucked off in the shopping dining strip of the town. It was fairly busy in there but we found seating at the bar top, no problem. The gal sitting next to us, had a bowl of pozole in front of her, and recommended we try it we later told her what we've been doing that evening with our pozole mission was 100 for it . The pozole was really good, authentic zings to it. The portion was hearty and meat was very tender. We also ordered a side of crickets; it was prepared a bit differently than how we're used to, but went hand in hand with their chips and fresh guacamole.
