Los Tacos Mexicali

My boyfriend and I went here for dinner tonight and we loved it! I’m from California and this was easily one of the only good Mexican restaurants I’ve had in the city. My boyfriend said the Al Pastor Tacos were hands down the best street tacos he’s ever had in his life. As a vegetarian, they had so many amazing options for me and their cauliflower Al Pastor was easily one of the most flavorful protein choices I’ve ever tried. We’re definitely going to become regulars here.

Belltown has really suffered since the Cantina place on 1st and Cedar was forced to close. I was excited when I walked by and noticed a new taco spot so close to home. My first visit was immaculate, excellent tacos, incredible drinks and amazing service. Second visit was later in the evening and while the tacos were still amazing, the drink quality dropped a bit. Still amazing service. I’m on my 3rd visit this week so I obviously like the place. Just hoping the quality doesn’t drop as they gain popularity.

The tacos are AMAZING! Found my new favorite taco spot in Seattle! I highly recommend the al pastor taco specifically, oh my god it's sooo good. I've also tried their taquitos and churros with the caramel sauce and both were fantastic as well!! If you go on Tuesday, it's happy hour all day and they have some good deals! Really nice staff too, I think it's a couple that works together for cooking and waiting tables, and they are so nice and great cooks. So happy this place opened up, 100% recommend! I've been twice now and the food has all been consistently good!

Best, most authentic Mexican food we’ve ever had! Came over to celebrate my husband’s birthday dinner in Seattle, visiting from B.C., and had the most delicious meal! Supreme burritos were amazing, I had the five street tacos (Al pastor, Carnitas, Pollo Asado, Birra meat, and Longaniza), horchatas and Jarritos to drink, plus two styles of churros for dessert. We will DEFINITELY be coming back again!! Oh, and the background mood music was just right… rock, pop, grunge, etc. while The Terminator played on the big screen in the background. Best night ever!

This place has relocated and Uber takes you to wrong address. Food and margaritas were great, service was slow and atmosphere was so so.

Surprising that it's not busy all the time! Food is delicious and authentic. We come about once a month. Definitely a contender for best Mexican in Seattle! Casual delicious food. Both times we've gone the food and service has been great. It's authentic Mexican food and beverages. They just started offering one local beer on tap. They are getting busier with more to go orders. Decent happy hour as well. Favorites are the tacos and birrria tacos and refried beans and rice (prolly my favorite in Seattle, beans are whipped not greasy and rice is fluffy!). ¡Vamanos la comida es muy delicioso!

Went for dinner on a Wednesday evening. There was only one staff working as the only bartender, only waitress, host and bussing the tables. They lost a lot of business of people that were waiting around for a table and no one ever came to seat them so they just left. Took a long time to order and margarita that we ordered never arrived. The guacamole tastes like it came out of a prepackaged container. We enjoyed all the taco types that we tried. Food is good but not good enough to return given the service.

So good! Love the tacos. Lots of vegetarian options. Great Michelada. Good service, super quick preparation, too. Seriously love this place. It’s the best and most affordable Mexican food in Belltown.

Sol was here tonight 2/7/2025 (technically 2/8 because it's after midnight) we made it right before the kitchen closed and she was able to get us food to go as well as a shot & had a great attitude. I really appreciate her and the kitchen getting our order in last minute. We were the only ones here so I can't say anything about the ambiance. My quesadilla was good. We got a chicken quesadilla, chimichangas, and Cali fries for under $50. Would return especially for Sol!!! Thank you!

Came here to try out this new Mexican spot. This restaurant is super laid back and the staff are really friendly and nice. The highlight of the meal was the mulitas. I've never had mulitas before and I'm kind of sad I've been missing out on them considering how good they were! They're kind of like a quesadilla deep fried and a taco mixed together. The Mexican street corn was also really good! The reason I'm giving it 4 stars though instead of 5 is because the nachos weren't that great. My friend and I both agreed that they were just really dry. He said they needed sour cream, but I thought maybe a little more of the liquid from the Pico de gallo would've helped. If you get them make sure you got a ton of water to wash them down. Overall, I definitely recommend this place to check out if you're in the mood for Mexican food. My friend and I both agree that it's definitely better than that other Mexican restaurant that was down the street. Like I said, just make sure you order the mulitas and not the nachos. Edit: We thought about it and it could've just been dry because of the protein. We got chicken and it was really dry. If you get nachos maybe consider getting a protein that is more moist.

Ordered food for delivery that never arrived. I tried calling their restaurant because the status says "order received" and never updated. Tried calling the restaurant but it keeps going to voicemail.

FINALLY. These are the closest to Californian-Mexican street tacos that I have tried to date. Meat. Onions. Cilantro. DONE. Nada más -- son perfectos! I always prefer lime but they have that covered too! So as of today, best tacos in Seattle! The mulitas and nachos were also fantastic. We came for Happy Hour which makes the prices more appealing. Technically this is located inside of Provisions, which has a unique vibe - super dark, big elegant type couches and furniture everywhere for groups to sit at. The music is WAY too loud to have a decent conversation but that's not the tacos' fault We came early evening so the place wasn't very full and we received our food quickly. We will definitely order from here when we want tacos to-go!! GO HERE

The service is great, drinks and food are phenomenal! Newest Mexican spot in Belltown with food authentic taste and the vibes (music and decor) set the perfect tone for a night with family or friends. I've been here twice so far, and can't wait to go back again!

Wow best shrimp taco I've ever had. If you look this place up you'll find some mysterious info on how to find it, but it's literally just the food at Belltown Provisions. We said we wanted tacos and they handed us a menu. We got three tacos, and oh my gosh so good! Meat and shrimp cooked so perfectly. An extra bonus was the corn tortillas, usually I'm a fan, but not always into their grittiness. These tortillas were so soft. Overall, I highly recommend. And enjoy it with a little drink.

Was looking for tacos nearby that were authentic. I have to say, these tacos were right on the money. A little hard to find the location but it is connected to the bar called PROVISION. Very nice and rustic feel inside. Will definitely be back :)

Yummy margaritas and delicious chips and guacamole. :) Took some time during Saturday to have a mid-day margarita. Everyone was super nice and friendly and the drinks and food came out super fast. I would recommend you come with friends. Good times will be had by all :)

Belltown needs this place! REASONABLE priced street tacos and such was what this neighborhood was crying for! The alambre skillet for $15 was plenty for two! I hope these guys make it in their tucked away area in the north end of BTown cuz this place serves legit food for prices not seen in the city. Go now and go often!!

Saw this "kitchen window" location on our long walk to the locks/fish ladder in Ballard (I hope I'm rating the correct place). My brother and friend decided to try the Duck Confit Taco and I got the Baja Style Crispy Rockfish taco. This place is AWESOME! Brother said this was one of the best items he had during our entire 5 day trip in Seattle. That alone, makes this a highly recommended place and we're glad we stumbled upon it on our voyage to the locks/fish ladder.

Tried their Alambre this evening and it was amazing! My husband and I shared a plate and it was plenty for the two of us. Great portion and reasonably priced. It's great that they are here to add what Belltown was lacking. Will definitely come again!!

My girlfriend and I came here on a Saturday afternoon with no real expectations. The Mexican food in Seattle has been pretty disappointing to say the least. But as we came in we were welcomed in with the most gracious attitude, and friendly welcome we have gotten since being out here. The restaurant has some amazing decorations that made me feel very welcomed. From the Mexican lotería cards to the pictures of famous Mexican actors on the walls, this place was amazing. Now food wise, we ordered the Surf & Turf Tacos and a Shrimp Cóctel along with a Jamaica and a Coronarita. The Jamaica agua Fresca was one of the most AMAZING agua frescas I have ever tried. Most places water it down and you don't taste the actual Hibiscus tea leaves but this place did EVERYTHING right with this drink. My gf got the coronarita, which was really well balanced. Not too strong but strong enough to get the job done. The food, the steak in the surf and turf tacos was absolutely cooked to utter perfection. The meat was cooked to order and you don't get that in many places these days. The shrimp in both dishes was fresh,not tough or rubbery. Great stand alone flavor and not too fishy of a taste. Seasoned perfectly. Now the wildcard, Alejandro, the waiter/host/server has to be one of the greatest people I have ever met. He's humble, funny and very welcoming. You can definitely tell he's been in the hospitality business for a long time. He also recommended a couple of other places to visit after telling him we were visiting for the weekend. 10/10 for him alone. Overall, this was a great and wonderful experience. It seems to be little on the newer side or maybe they had a menu relaunch so give them alot of grace. But when you do food alone speaks for itself.

Brand new taco spot in Belltown. Excellent veg options for tacos! Looking forward to seeing them grow with the neighborhood!!

We walked in and this place was very busy. All the tables were full or had dirty dishes on them. We waited about 6 or 7 minutes to have the tables cleaned and be seated. But man oh man this place did not disappoint!! They took our order and food came out pretty quick. They checked in and even the appetizer chips and salsa was so good!! Staff was friendly and helpful and food was so good!! Worth the wait!!

Omfg!!!!!!!! The shrimp tacos was amazing literally a burst of flavor in your mouth it's like they cooked the shrimp to such a perfection it's tender but juicy with the right slight kick of the sea fresh!!! Then the street corn was life changing make sure you put the sauce that came with it it was perfect some may like it buttery or with mayo but honestly put a lot of the sauce on it was amazing even with out the sauce too. They had great service and the bartender Dayri made it even better great service and he recommended a sauce that made me order even more also making my expresso martini and my friends cosmo. The environment was very chill and warm music was a vibe. I recommend for date night also. Do wish they had real candles would add to the beautiful environment!

Great owners and amazing food. Their meat is perfectly seasoned. Food is really good. Reminds me of back home in California. The only thing they're missing is homemade tortillas and to stop using canned refried beans for their burritos.

Good vibe and drinks. Tacos were great. There was only one guy serving at the time I was there. Looked like he was bar tender and food server.

Ordered birria tacos and instead of consume, I received just regular beef broth?? This is absolutely false advertisement. The broth has zero flavor and it's too clear to be consome. It's like they bought some boxed beef broth and boiled it with some onions and called it consome. This is unacceptable and the definition of false advertisement.

Best Mexican food I've had in Seattle. Reminded me of something you'd find in Tijuana. Extremely glad to finally have authentic Mexican in the city.

Starting with the positive, I've tried this new spot 3 times and have been satisfied with the food. I want it to succeed as an asset to the neighborhood so I hope people will give them a try. The first time I went in, a courteous gentleman took care of our table and was clearly experienced in how to treat customers well. The other times we were served by a woman, who is the reason for the lower rating, especially the third visit. I brought in larger group for happy hour, and there was only one other table occupied by 2 people. The music was way too loud for the small space, We asked her to turn it down and she did, a little only to have the volume raised again. When we made the request again, so we could chat at the table without shouting, she was annoyed, made negative comments, and reduced the volume slightly...not so much that we could hear her or ourselves. On top of that, she seemed more interested in chatting in the kitchen than taking care of the tables. I hope her manager will fix the problem, as for now, I will stay away or stick to take-out. It's a restaurant, not a disco.

This place is amazing. Thier corn tortillajj no is made fresh and thier ceviche is in point. Been looking for a place that reminded me of California tacos and this comes closest so far. Thier habanero extra hot sauce is actually hot. Think I found my goto for tacos for now.

You cannot name yourselves "Los tacos Mexicali" and not use homemade flour tortillas. I was born in Mexicali and was legit excited to see authentic Mexicali tacos in Seattle. The taste of the individual ingredients might have been good but you get 1 star by using corn tortillas.

Great food for Seattle Mexican food also very cheap HH prices. Worth checking out for sure
