El Mezcalito - Seattle

Great service! we were well visited and the staff is very friendly. our group really enjoyed our margaritas. we had the cantinero, flaca and picosa. all had excellent taste and it is nice to try a great variety. eating is a bit expensive, but this is to be expected that in queen anne. the chips and salsa were good. the chips are served with some species of salsa. they give them refills of salsa when they run out. their salsas were all fresh and had wonderful aromas. we also had the carne asada tacos and the carne asada plate. the tacos were good, but I would suggest spending something extra and getting the plate. it comes with more steak plus drilling, rice and tortillas. overall our group had a positive experience. eating is good and the margaritas are amazing!

This place is considerably good. I was actually told they had Tuna Juice, but they didn’t. Tuna Juice is for finches, but humans can drink it too. They didn’t have any Tuna juice.Update: ok, so they ended up having Tuna juice. It’s excellent on the plantains and in drinks. It’s actually for finches, but humans can drink it too.

The drinks are strong and the staff is very friendly and attentive. 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.

Good food, quick, mostly, service and well stocked salsas

I'll preface this review with the fact that my Mexican heritage and life experience have included a long history of amazing Mexican food so I am always a tough critic. But I stopped by this restaurant due to the amount of folks that were dining there on a Thursday night. Seemed like a safe bet. I ordered their self advertised house specialty, Mole with chicken, with white rice and two tortillas,cost 20. My order was mistakenly not put in and after 30 minutes, no food. I was seated near open cooking area. When I saw that they were starting to clean the grill and wash pots and pans I stopped a server who had walked by me several times and asked about my meal. She offered to take my order. She finally realized I'd ordered a 1 2 hour earlier. So, I asked for some chips while I waited yet again. They came 20minutes later with my food order. One small chicken thigh with white rice. The food was served cold. No server ever came back to send it back. So being famished by then I ate it. When server returned with my bill she asked how the food was I mentioned the coldness of the food. She chuckled and said sorry. The mole was watery and flavorless. The rice steamed. Both mole, chicken and rice could have used a little salt. The owner was told about my concern and took five dollars off my bill and offered me a beer. I passed on the beer. The bill and included a 5 charge for a small basket of chips. So not a great experience and food was disappointing. For those of you looking for an authentic Mexican food experience, you can do much better.
