10Best Says

Known for deliciously authentic Mexican dishes prepared with fresh vegetables, meats, and seafood, Tacos Guaymas earns high marks all around. Well-received entrees include a gigantor carnitas burrito served with a generous portion of guacamole, chile verde (pork with spicy tomatillo sauce), and fried tilapia with pico de gallo. Casual, festive atmosphere (think bright colors!) and great prices also go far to recommend the place. The restaurant has several outposts throughout Seattle (like one in Fremont on Leary Avenue), and the counter-service set-up makes this an affordable and informal option for families and large groups. The Greenlake restaurant boasts great views on sunny days.
