I had only been to the Kirkland location before, but this one was just as wonderful! Don't miss out on their brunches! They still have the full menu available if you're like me and not big on breakfast food(I got the pork tacos with pineapple salsa, so good!), but the other person I was with got their amazing churro waffles. Their Mexican Coffee is wonderful as well. Our server Cierra (I may be spelling that wrong) was attentive with an amazing personality to round out our awesome experience.

Pretty cool Mexican restaurant with some good evening vibes. The food is delicious and potions are huge. The staff is very friendly and hospitable. I totally recommend this place.

Not all Cactus restaurants are equal unfortunately. The Cactus restaurant on Alki is definitely #1, but the one in south Lake Union is questionable. Food didn’t seem scrumptious, yet I found what was plastic or thick paper blended with my taco and almost ate it, lost my appetite for a sec. Ordered between lunch hours when it’s not very busy. How do you mess this one up when there’s no rush, I was literally the only person picking food up with no tables occupied. I’m saying no to another visit, get it together guys….

Great atmosphere, great service and even better Mexican fusion food! Unfortunately they do ask for your personal medical information for entry.

Great place for mexican food! Lots of seating, you do need reservations on weekends. I had few cocktails which were yum! I ordered butternut squash enchiladas which was a first for me and absolutely loved it! The quesadillas were amazing too! Not that highly priced too! Not too fancy and good Mexican cuisine find!

My husband and I had a very lovely dinner at Cactus. It was our first visit. I had the skirt steak fajitas, which were exceptional. My husband had a brisket burrito, which was also very good. The service was warm and welcoming. I would love to dine here again.

Good was delicious .,, I love vaccine requirement

Hard to rate this place. Service was good, food was safe for celiac but my dish was not good at all. I had one bite. I probably ordered the wrong one for my tastes but it was not good. My friends good food looked really good though. The table starters they give you were alright. Salsa was good but the guac was a bit bland. I'd like to go back one day and try another main.

The chips and guac were super good and the portions were huge. Try the guac with melted cheese on top. The brisket burrito was a little heavy on the brisket. The fried chili was surprisingly hood and the flavors were novel. Would visit again.

Super cute atmosphere and sweet staff! Had an issue with my meal and they were so quick to resolve and even brought out a flam for our table! The drinks are delicious and strong! Perfect Seattle dining spot!
