14 Spots for Fantastic Tacos in the Seattle Area

"This unassuming spot in a strip mall near the Othello light rail station is one of the few places around that regularly serve al pastor made in the traditional style: thin cuts of pork shoulder stacked on a trompo, roasted vertically, and sliced as the surface of the meat browns; a preparation brought to Mexico by Lebanese immigrants. It makes for a next-level tender pork that is scattered with extra savory browned bits, along with distinctive flavors of achiote and warm spice. Taco Street also serves a variety of other tacos that can go toe to toe with the rest of the taquerias on this list. But the al pastor, that’s your fighter." - Megan Hill, Jade Yamazaki Stewart, Mark DeJoy
