Casa Del Mariachi (off 125th) has great breakfast burritos. Haven’t tried the rest of their food, only came across them recently. Should be good though.
Azteca by Northgate is only okay if you don’t want to go far, you could do a lot better.
Plaza Garcia is your classic southwest Mexican food and one of our favorites. It’s in Kirkland but worth the drive.
Acapulco Fresh Mexican Grill in Kenmore is pretty good.
Taqueria El Sabor in Shoreline is also pretty good.
Anita’s Food Truck on Aurora also has good burritos. Wouldn’t classify them as typical southwest fare though.
And if you’re up for driving, the list wouldn’t be complete without mentioning Jumbo Burrito in Oak Harbor. Take the Ferry to Whidbey, do a day trip across Whidbey, stop at Jumbo and try the carnitas before you cross Deception Pass on the way back. You’re welcome.
Of course after I moved there I found quite a number of excellent Mexican food restaurants, and for a few years I wondered what strange definition they were using.
I eventually figured out that they meant that there was no good Mexican food within walking distance of downtown
