"Opening Saturday, October 13, the Capitol Hill–born taqueria Tacos Chukis will debut its biggest location yet at 2203 E Union; owner Roberto Salmeron said he was putting the finishing touches and aimed to unlock the doors at 5 p.m. (or earlier if everything fell into place). The new restaurant will seat around 50 people at the base of a mixed-use building at 23rd and Union, and the larger kitchen will serve as headquarters for his other restaurants. The menu and operating hours will match the other locations, anchored by the signature pork adobada taco topped with melted cheese, guacamole, and grilled pineapple, alongside quesadillas, tortas, and burritos. After the opening, the restaurant will adopt regular daily hours of 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., following a period of expansion that included South Lake Union in 2016 and Beacon Hill earlier this year." - Megan Hill
