Little Water Cantina

This place has pretty decent Mexican food for prices that are a little high, but makes sense for the location. Definitely ask for an outdoor seat here because the view is amazing, you can even see Gas Works Park from their patio!The service was decent, you get your menu from a QR code and order on your phone so you're not personally tended to. The chips with salsa and guacamole was a great starter. They had 2 different types of chips which I liked. The salsa is very spicy though (and I like spice)!!! The tacos were good with not much meat on them but enough to satisfy me. The quesadillas were thin and plain, so probably wouldn't order those again.Overall: AMAZING location because of its clear waterfront view. The food was average for a Mexican spot, and the service was mainly through a device which didn't bother me.

I couldn't imagine a Mexican restaurant being worse. To start with the good, patio seating and homemade tortillas. It ends there. You order from a QR code and food is delivered. Hate this. No interaction. No human connection. We ordered tacos, grilled fish and chicken tinga. They were stingier with their meat than Chipotle...on a bad day. There was plenty of cabbage and crema. So much that you could not close the tortilla to eat the taco. The tortilla was so thin, everything fell through the bottom. This was not a taco. I ordered corn tortillas and received flour. Not a big deal but one of the little things that made this experience one I would not want to repeat or recommend. As a visitor to Seattle, this might be the best Mexican restaurant available. If so, I'm so sorry. Don't eat here. Don't waste your money.Pass on Little Water Cantina.

No reservations, so we waited about 25 minutes at the bar for a seat on the beautiful outdoor patio. The watermelon margs were as fresh as advertised and the chips and salsa were bold and spicy (skip the flour chips). It was $17 for 2 largely stuffed fried fish tacos, but they were delicious and service was kind.

5 stars for ambiance and food... service and sustainability make this a 4 star review. If you're lucky enough to get an outside table in the summer, grab it. And then try a spicy margarita which is delicious and served in an actual glass. (For some reason, water comes in a single use plastic glass, despite this being the 2020s.)Tacos and elote corn are very good.. sharing food is easy but requires a lot of coordination through their ordering system (especially if you want separate bills). Maybe just have one person order everything and then use venmo.

Food was really good and the portions were huge! Was a bit spendy, even though it was happy hour. I would go back with a big group on a night out, but definitely not a a regular thing!Was mostly self serve (online order and online menu) with somewhat slow service (had to grab my own box from a table because no one came back). Other than that, the staff was very friendly and accommodating.

I've worked in Eastlake for almost 17 years now and I had been wanting to try this place since they opened!I happened to order takeout since I live in the area now. Saturday night, seemed slow, super sweet and kind server, food was ready in no time.I take my tacos very seriously (Mexican born here) and I really liked their asada ones; perfect combo with the toppings and delicious salsa, their rice and beans (these beans are pretty epic; puerco style) were pretty delicious.Have to come back for brunch or dinner, ambience seems pretty chill and pleasant.

Food, medium. View, perfect. Music, 2009 dance party. Service: none. Things didn't come, no one checked on us. Other restaurants can do QR ordering, and still own the table's experience. Not here. When I asked them to remove the item that didn't come... They didn't. I asked again. It's still on there. Let's see.

Great place to hang out overlooking the lake on a nice day with a few cervezas and margaritas. Came her after a UW graduation before flying out of town. Meal took an hour which was perfect. Ordering is done via toast tab.Had quesadillas, nachos burritos tacos, salads, etc and everyone was pleased.

Went here in 2023 very often and used to love the queso and Brussels sprouts. Fish taco was the best taco, but those other two items were special. Coming back in summer 2024, I'm disappointed to report the queso recipe has declined drastically -- we ended up eating the chips plain. The chips were good at least, but those are $16 chips. The Brussels sprouts were removed completely, sadly as well. Hopefully my little water cantina experience will not become a memory, but I'm afraid of dark times ahead.

Went here after 2 years. Really great food like the last time. The nachos are delicious. Huge in size.The wild mushroom burrito was also tasty. The sauce that comes with it is spicy. So be careful.The scenarie is beautiful. Must go again.
