No-frills pick for counter-serve Mexican street food, including tacos, quesadillas & burritos.
"You might know Tacos Chukis from their first Capitol Hill location, and we're happy to report that the SLU outpost is great, too. Hop in for lunch or dinner with a relative who’s just purchased a $60 “Frasier” hoodie, order a plate of the excellent house tacos with adobada grilled pork, and carry on with your day knowing you’ve made a good decision." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"Tacos Chukis used to be “that secret taqueria in that building on Broadway with the tattoo parlor and nail salon,” but the entire universe has been in on it for some time. And for good reason—the quickly-prepared food is delicious. Hop in for lunch or a pre-bar-hop dinner with some friends, wait in line and look around for a table, order a plate of the house tacos (adobada grilled pork, avocado salsa, onion, cilantro, and a seared square of grilled pineapple) and carry on with your day knowing you’ve made a good decision." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"The South Lake Union location of Tacos Chukis is more modern than the original in Capitol Hill, but the tacos are the same. Hit it up for a takeout lunch or quick group dinner before hitting some bars, and always get the pork/grilled pineapple/avocado salsa house tacos." - Aimee Rizzo
"This hotspot tucked away on Capitol Hill churns out tacos and burritos from a limited but still terrific menu. The tiny tacos are all good, especially the pork adobada topped with grilled pineapple, or the special house adobada taco with cheese. The nopal tacos, too, are tangy and a good accompaniment to the meatier options. The growing company also dishes them out at locations in South Lake Union, the Central District, and Beacon Hill." - Megan Hill, Jade Yamazaki Stewart, Mark DeJoy
"Between the Fremont Troll, MoPop, and the anticlimactic Ballard Hiram M. Chittenden Locks, you might need to grab a quick lunch. Enter Tacos Chukis—Seattle’s standard for tacos. You needn’t concern yourself with anything else but the house taco, filled with adobada pork, avocado salsa, and a sweet square of caramelized pineapple." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley
