El Tule Taqueria

On my quest to find truly authentic Mexican food in the Pacific Northwest, I stopped by El Tule Taqueria—and it absolutely delivered! The flavors were bold, fresh, and packed with that homemade feel that’s hard to come by. One standout? The Mexican pizza—crispy, cheesy, and perfectly seasoned. It was unlike anything I’ve had before and seriously addictive. The staff was friendly, the vibe was relaxed, and you can tell they take pride in their food. Definitely a must-visit if you’re chasing real-deal Mexican flavor in the PNW.

They don't ask for tips right away until you're done with your food like it should be. Simple humble authentic Mexican food and especially the tacos with handmade tortillas its where it's at. The only reason I rate a 4, is because my wife didn't like the pupusas because she said they're not authentic enough.

This one I keep close to my heart. The best mole I’ve ever eaten (besides El Cardenal in Mexico DF). I recommend the enmoladas. Incredible. We have dinner here when we go to the outlet mall nearby. Helpful if you speak Spanish but everyone speaks English too. They also prefer cash but cards are accepted. You order at the counter and take your drinks to the table with a number and they bring your food out to your table. When you are finished, you pay at the counter by bringing your number with you—tipping is done at the counter, too.

We regularly drive 40 minutes on the weekend to have breakfast here. All the dishes are authentic and very delicious. We love the Enmoladas, Chilaquiles, Chile Rellenos, and more..

Very unique experience. It was my first time trying huitlacoche (corn smut) and it did look weird but it was very good, with a sweet yet savory earthy taste. Service was fast but not as attentive as other traditional diners or restaurants but hey, the place was packed for a reason: authentic Mexican food.
