Very good. The place is a combination grocery+deli+kitchen, just in case anyone gets confused. This means you may need to ask one of the employees when you are ready to take your order so they can go to the kitchen and make it for you.Went a couple times and tried the chicken with mole plate, the barbacoa, a torta, and the huarache. All was delicious and the prices were decent. I found the owner to be nice and accommodating, helping me answer my questions about the food and give me suggestions, although I ordered in Spanish.

Had high expectations of the place since it was a hole in the wall, local, small family owned/operated and based on other recommendations. Unfortunately, value for food is missing. Price is simply too high. ($11-$13)If you happened to be in the area and craving tacos... I'd recommend the carne asada tacos. Do not get the chicken soup... it was pure slay. :(

After a bike ride from Montlake to Rainier Beach, I had worked up a bit of an appetite and was greeted by Tienda Mi Puebilto on the side of the road. As soon as I saw that they had tlayuda on the menu, I was sold. While I thought the best tlayuda was in Corona, NY, I think I may have found a new contender!For starters, the torta was perfectly cooked- just crispy enough without disintegrating with every bite. Then there were the huge chunks of beef on top. Seriously, this thing was absolutely delicious. Did I need to eat the whole one alone.... no. Could I have eaten more? Absolutely. For dessert, Surtidoras from Wenatchee delivers fresh made pastries every day. These all looked absolutely delicious. I went with the strawberry nino envuelto and was not disappointed.I am actually glad that this is a hike outside of the city, otherwise I would come way to often. However, it could be my new stop on the way to the airport given its proximity to the Rainier Beach stop....

This place is a little secret of the Rainer Beach area. Less than 50 steps away from the Rainier Beach Light Rail station, it's a quick pickup for lunch or dinner. The parking lot is often used for the Via vans.The mole negro con pollo is my favorite item on the menu. It comes with rice, bean, and tortillas on the side. Tacos are also a great shared meal. Any combination of pork, spicy pork, beef, and chicken will feed a hungry crowd.

Pros: price, speed of service, decent food quality, customer service Cons: location seems sketchy (not the fault of the restaurant)

This place is right off the Rainier Beach Light Rail and whenever I step off the train in the evenings, I can smell their carne asada aroma filling the evening air. This is a lovely little market that has Mexican grocery staples (no fresh produce, but all the spices, sauces, tortilla, snacks, candies and other pantry items to make a Mexican meal). At the back of the store is the restaurant menu. I always order #5 and #6 which are the red and black mole chicken that comes with beans, rice, and warm tortilla. It's spicy and delicious and so packed with wonderfully intense flavors. Highly recommend this shop!

This is a hidden gem right off MLK. Amazing tacos. Delicious huraches- don't fear the hurache, eat the hurache at Tienda Mi Pueblito often and your stomach will thank you!

First time visiting this place. Love the flavors and the spice. Workers are very welcoming. Really enjoyed eating inside the store. I went back a second time to order the same but with chicken.

We tried it last night and were super excited, the cook was super sweet. But when we got home, the meat was very tough and hard to eat, my daughter ended up pulling the meat out of her burrito to make it edible, my carne asada was not good. They also charged 1.99 for using credit card although we paid over $50 for 2 burrito's and a Carne Asada. And they didn't tell us they were charging a service charge. Not going back! :(.

Be careful with what you buy. They will overcharge at the time of checkout. They don't honor their prices already on display. So keep an eye on check out everything will go up in price before taxes.
