A friend living in Seattle gave me many recommendations and Poquitos was one of the most appreciated! Very big and welcoming place, good service and kind staff. The food was particularly good, nachos were crazy and the tortillas as well. Great location, Capitol Hill is the real center of the night life in Seattle and also it’s main and most authentic area. Strongly recommended.

Great food , decent ambience and good service. However wish we could get a table outside by the fire but apparently they were short staffed at that time. We went an hour before closing so the vibe was low however we still had a good time. We got the chicken tortilla soup , horchatas , chips and guac along with some vegetarian taco and chicken tinga taco. All the items were fresh and delicious and we highly recommend the chicken tortilla soup . It was huge , tasty and unique. Their cocktail section was nice as well but we did not try them out that night . Overall a very good experience and a great Mexican place in capitol hill

Nice upscale Mexican restaurant, with a lively atmosphere. Ordered the tuna tostada (excellent!) and the shrimp in salsa brava (delicious) but the Barbacoa Tacos was a total miss.. The meat was utterly dry and underseasoned. What a letdown. Service was also underwhelming unfortunately, it tastes forever to get a waiters attention and they missed our drinks and one food item order. Overall still great for a date night.

Really good service and atmosphere here. They are always super busy but somehow you manage to get seated pretty quickly. Staff is always friendly and food comes out really fast. Bathrooms are clean and free of odors. As far as the food, it was pretty solid all around. The Mediterranean tacos had good flavor. Chip basket was never empty. The margarita was spicy as hell but good. And the churros were bomb too! Will likely be back

Went on a Sunday night at it was perfect. The chicken was amazing, the rice was good too. Nice fresa margarita. No wait. Service was excellent. They even brought me a new napkin that had fallen on the floor before me realizing. I would go back for the chicken and the chicharrones with queso again.

Grabbed a quick dinner here with some friends on a sunday and was easily seated with no wait. The horchata and fish tacos were the star of the show in my opinion! Our table also got the short ribs, chicharron, and barbacoa tacos but I’m not the biggest meat eater. My friends said they were good though! The short ribs came with plaintains that were interesting and good, sweeter than potato. And often this is easily forgotten about, but the rice and beans were really really good!

Great vibe and atmosphere. The staff and bartenders should practice more patience and smile : ) I felt a little uncomfortable to make conversations with bartenders and it was super slow and just me. Great decorations and lighting Great service Great food quantity and quality No music was playing (Sat 3:00 PM) Prices are a little high and no happy hour on Sat which was not good. Overall great place and spot. Classy and high standards in the middle of CapHill. Recommendations: -Play music and something background -Remind and educate bartenders to be more engaging and talkative to customers because they are customer facing roles. -Add happy hour and be more customer obsessed. Dont just focus on profit and build up customers relationships. Overall I will give 5 star and check this place soon to see some improvements. Specially their cold treatments from the bartenders. #caphillbar #pike #chillbar

. Food was good, they have Chicharrones with dipping so good, my Fish Tacos were good but it was missing something, not very flavorful, we also ordered Carne Azada Nachos they were good but only a few pieces of meat but I'm telling you very few like a couple. It could have gotten better. I will give them a chance because of service

Came in with a group of friends because someone recommended this restaurant. We had such a great time. The server was knowledgeable about the menu and the drinks. Their infused strawberry tequila was delicious in the margaritas. Also, their pear salad with the steak was fantastic!!! Definitely will come back.

Randomly stopped in here for dinner. The service was good. The place wasn't busy or empty...kinda half full I guess. Perfect spot to have a quiet place to eat and relax after being in town for work.

Brunch at Poquitos is top tier! Make room for the breakfast burrito! It was delicious and was a large portion. I would go back here just for the breakfast burrito! The guac and chips also never disappoint.

Went here for brunch and loved the decor of the place. There weren’t to many ppl, which made me nervous if the food was going to be good or not. I say this place is a hit or miss for brunch. The salsa trio drip was delicious but the frozen drink I ordered had no alcohol in it and wasn’t flavorful. Pineapple upside down pancakes were great but I was not impressed with the chilaquiles and returned my food back to the kitchen and ordered tacos which were way better. I also got another drink that was non frozen and it was way better. Summary is that certain menu items are delicious and some are not. I would still recommend this place because when I did have issues with my food the servers and service was great and they easily accommodated me .

First thing, really cute and welcoming place to have dinner at. We chose to sit outside on their patio along the street since the weather was nice this past weekend. Secondly, it did take awhile for our server to come to us (saw him check on his other two tables directly next to us a couple times before finally stopping at ours to get our initial drinks). Once we did get our drinks, we were ready and had him order their Yellowfin Tuna Tostadas to start and Barbacoa Tacos (which is pictured with a side of their rice and beans). The tacos were delicious, flavorful and juicy! As for the Tostadas, they actually came out a little after we had munched on the tacos and had to ask our server if they were still coming or not. He answered with “Yeah, they should have been out ASAP but let me check!” Personally not a huge fan of them but my partner loved them! I would say, our server was very nice overall! My only comment would be for your service team to be a tad bit more attentive and/or if they are busy, to have others assist when needed.

Fun atmosphere with excellent staff and good (but not flavorful) Al pastor tacos. The queso appetizer was our table favorite.

This food was truly outstanding! The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable, and prompt. The vibe was fabulous and they have a great selection of food and drinks. The shrimp ceviche was absolutely incredible. The enchiladas where the best I've ever had period. The drinks where on point and the Flan was delicious. If you're in Seattle, this place is a must!! Try it, you will not be disappointed.
