This is a cute restaurant in a great location but I wouldn't come here for "tacos" again. The corn tortillas were nice and fresh, the shredded beef was a bit mushy, the beans were average. The menu is above the counter.

Casual but very inviting Taco place in Capital Hill. Lots of vegetarian options. For me the vegetarian option was a bit better than the meat option. So I can highly recommend trying this.I love the ambiance as it is casual but still a great place for Happy Hours or hanging with friends after work.We ordered:Chicken Traditional tacosCauliflower Chickpea deluxe tacosI highly recommend the vegetarian option.Staff was great and welcoming, enough service to order fast and get food fast as well.

This was a late birthday event. I mean, who doesn't like birthday tacos? But I will admit to shedding a tear for the space that Kingfish Cafe used to inhabit. Tacos and a Pacifico hit the spot on a sunny afternoon. It's no Michelin star establishment but this was a nice place for an afternoon lunch.

A little pricey, but pretty good food!I came by with some friends over the weekend, and, as I was starving, I decided to get the Al Pastor traditional tacos. The cashier was super friendly and answered all my questions. We then grabbed a table, and the food came out so fast! I had only been seated for a few minutes at most before the tacos were ready.The tacos were to die for. The meat was so juicy and tender, but also incredibly flavorful. The pineapples added a bit of sweetness to the slight spice of the sauce. Plus, the portions were pretty good, and I was completely full by the time I was done.My only complaint is that the chips were literally just plain chips. They didn't even come with any pico de gallo. I used them to scoop pieces that fell out of the tacos, but I would recommend getting beans as the side instead.Overall, I had a great time and will be back!

I just discovered rocket taco and ice been here 3x in the past 2 months! My favorite tacos are the pork belly tacos and Al pastor tacos! They are slightly more expensive (like $2-3 more) than say Carmelo's and tacos chukis but the quality is so good and the tacos are way more filling! The pork belly and al pastor are super tender, slow cooked, and seasoned and packed with flavor. The tacos also come with a side of chips or beans!

I once drove past a sign in enumclaw that said that a burrito place attached to a gas station had the best burrito in washington state. It was a good burrito. But to be honest rocket tacos al pastor burrito is the BEST burrito in washington state. Hands down

The quality of food had been less impressive the last year. Very salty , queso tastes extremely processed.The happy hour deals are still good.

We were so excited to try this taqueria after Kenji Lopez-Alt posted about three of their dishes on Instagram. We liked the Al Pastore tacos (3.9/5 stars) and pork belly tacos (4.1/5 stars) are good (although perhaps not mind blowing) and we felt that the pork pozole (5/5 stars) was phenomenal. As other reviewers have mentioned, there is no mix and match. You get three traditional tacos for $11 or three premium tacos for $14. Overall, we had a good experience, and we want to give the restaurant a second chance to see if it is actually great, as reviews from 2023 indicate. I will say that we were surprised by the volume of cilantro on each taco (probably four times the amount we usually see at restaurants - and we are NOT allergic to cilantro! It's just that it was excessive). The other quirk was the temperature of the tacos - the restaurant had all of the windows open, so I think room was only 55°F. Maybe that was why the first taco was warm (not hot) and the other two tacos on my plate cooled down extremely fast, even though we were starving and eating quickly. The servers were friendly, and the tacos were served quickly.

The deluxe carnitas tacos were great! The service was fast and the staff are kind. It's a nice little taco shop with music and nice decorations. I would check it out if you want tacos and are in the area.

Absolutely terrible service and we decided to walk out. Stopped by earlier today and we hit a brick wall when asking about the menu. Not everyone has been here before and knows your menu and your staff shouldn't be incredibly rude to someone for asking if they can order a single taco (which apparently you can't...despite it being a dedicated taqueria?). There are many other charming places in the area...I don't know why anyone would choose to go here.
