Everyday is Taco Day
Though it sits more than 1200 miles from Mexico, Federal Way, Washington features a surprising number of high-quality Mexican restaurants, all of which have their own distinct flavors in taste – and atmosphere. For anybody looking for the familiar comfort and fullness that real Mexican food brings, our city has plenty of options right around the corner from our auto repair shop.
Biggest Burrito: Puerto Vallarta Family Mexican Restaurant
With over 16 restaurants in Washington state, Puerto Vallarta Family Mexican Restaurant brings an abundant south-of-the-border presence to the west coast’s northernmost state. Entering through the unassuming building, customers are greeted by friendly staff and a lively authentic decor. Tortillas are made fresh daily and a broad menu of traditional Mexican cuisine, and even steak and burgers, means there’s something here for the whole family.
Most folks, however, come for the high-value items that dominate the menu. The burritos, in particular, are routinely described as nothing less than “huge” and “generous” by the restaurant and its customers. If getting full is a priority, Puerto Vallarta Family Mexican Restaurant is the place to go.
Most Authentic: Mexican Restaurant: Señor Taco
Not to be confused with the chain of Senor Taco restaurants in Washington and Oregon, Señor Taco opened in 1998 and has since become an institution of fun and flavor for the city of Federal Way, Washington. With a classic sit-down dining experience, patrons come to enjoy fresh rustic salsas, fully-authentic Mexican food, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Between its incredibly fast and hospitable service, and a small, traditional menu of delicious, spicy-fresh food, Señor Taco takes the cake for one of the most authentic Mexican dining experiences in the state.
Most Low-Key: Taquería La Tentación
For some of the best tacos in town, Taquería La Tentación has got Federal Way covered. Using homemade tortillas, the freshest ingredients, and the perfect amount of spice, this incredibly down-to-earth taqueria might be all some of us need when we think good Mexican food.
When you’re looking for fresh food instead of a stay-as-long-as-you-want sitdown dining experience, Taquería La Tentación is a quick straight-to-the-point option to get what you need. What the restaurant may lose in bells and whistles (for some visitors), it more than makes up for by nailing two of the most important menu items for any Mexican establishment – tacos and menudo.
