- TtonySeattle / Eastern Washington •29 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoGreat experience all around! Only issue is I signed up for their rewards program and it didn’t give me credit. I went back to see if they can give me credit, but they said they couldn’t… for as much as we spent, I’d think there would be some sort of solution. Regardless, the food was amazing (probably the best Mexican food in Seattle), the margaritas were fantastic! The atmosphere and establishment has a certain Mexican character reminiscent of a cantina in Mexico. Wonderful job!More infoPoquitos - Capitol HillPrice: Expensive• Mexican• Capitol Hill / First Hill•4.5
