We had a delicious lunch at Rocket Taco (so glad they opened for their first lunch today). The food was fresh, the prices were good, and the place has great atmosphere. I was so happy to find Gluten Free options!! Almost everything on the menu is GF with the request of GF tortillas!! Yum! We will be back!!!
The carnitas tacos where unreal and so are the drinks! It’s great to have such a fun place in our neighborhood! Oh, and don’t forget to try the key lime pie...
Great place to stop and get some awesome tacos. I got the carne asada tacos. The smoky beans on the side were tasty as well. Of the three salsas available. The green one tastes the best. Great atmosphere and reasonable prices. I would highly recommend checking it out.
Super delicious street style tacos! Cashier girl with tattoos was super nice. I got the traditional chicken tacos and they were super good and not too small. The side of beans, with a drizzle of white cheese on the top, made for a great pairing.
I recommend giving this place a try, you’ll love it!
I absolutely loved this place, happy vibes, sunny decor/atmosphere, friendly helpful efficient service, great food (satisfying & healthy), they also accommodate dietary requirements as a standard part of the menu: vegetarian, keto, gluten free, even carnivores have options! I’ll be back because I want to try all the different taco combos. We walked-in and were quickly seated. Conveniently located at the nexus between east Capitol Hill, south Mountlake, and east Washington Park neighborhoods, plenty of off-street parking, across the street from public transit, very pedestrian friendly.
I had chips & guacamole, their deluxe beef tacos with beans, and of course the churros! Everything was so good and tasted fresh and home made. They had the cutest bar - making cocktails and NA drinks! The atmosphere was cozy, they had the NFL playoffs playing, and it was a fun environment all around. Their customer service was very friendly and there is plenty of street parking in the area.
I go on walks through this part of the neighborhood when I want to mix it up. I noticed Rocket Taco once and when my cousin said hey let's have burritos. I offered this as an option. The place was not very crowded, which I liked. There was of course reduced seating due to the pandemic but as they had seating outside and the day was nice enough. We enjoyed the outside patio for our meal. The music was playing, I enjoyed the selection some of which I had not heard of in a bit. We both ordered beef burritos, soft drinks, and guacamole with chips. We both enjoyed our very generous burritos, very filling. I rather enjoyed the guacamole and chips which of course my cousin devoured. Except for a little bit of snark from the host, our time was enjoyable. I think I will be coming back again.
Tacos are good and the two veggie options are more unique than most places around here. Service is quick and friendly.
Recommend the horchata which is nice and cinnamon-y (plus vegan!).
For tacos all veggie ones are good but vegan lentil tacos are my favorite!
Chips and guacamole is tasty and good size to share with two people.
Drinks can be hit or miss and sometimes very spirit forward.
Excellent tacos. Tortillas really elevate this place over others. Plenty of space and friendly service. I put these tacos right up there with Carmello's as the best in Seattle. I cant wait to come back and try some of the other tacos!
I miss the place so much literally the best fish tacos ever. Honestly the staff is friendly and the food is top notch this a great place to take your family or friends. Make sure to tip when you go the staff deserves it!
This is a self serve taco pub. I LOVE that they have three unique vegan traditional taco options. The lentil quinoa was the best, followed by the cauliflower chickpea, followed by the sweet potato bean. I wish they would make the deluxe versions of these vegan as well, as the tacos need the cremas and deluxe toppings.
It's a real toss-up between the pork belly tacos and the al pastor tacos. Both are thoughtfully prepared, surprisingly light, and loaded with flavor. The special frozen peach margarita was also quite nice. With a lot of foodie destinations in a two-block span, Rocket Taco should certainly be on your list.
