Taqueria Jacarandas Mexican Food
We came here after a flight into SeaTac on a whim since it was Cinco de Mayo, and because I was craving a torta. We arrived, and it looks pretty plain from the outside, but inside is a nice, well-lit, and clean (if well-used) little restaurant. The menu had a lot of different options, considering that most Mexican restaurants have a bunch of variations on the same thing, tacos, burritos, etc. etc.
I got the torta with fries and a piña-flavor agua fresca, and the other people in my party got a chimichanga, the wet super burrito, and a quesadilla con carne, and we ordered chips and salsa for the table. I can say confidently that the torta was one of the best I've had; it wasn't fancy, but it was really delicious, and pretty large and therefore filling. The fries were pretty good, not the best, but they were crispy and freshly fried. The chimichanga was, according to the consumer, "probably the best [they've] ever had", and the quesadilla was "definitely close to the top". I'm assuming the burrito was also very good, considering the speed with which it was consumed! The chips themselves were also very fresh and lightly salted, and the salsa was chunky, spicy, smoky, and fresh, on top of probably being made in-house. To finish it off, we got some churros (the flan was out of stock, sadly), and to my pleasant surprise, they were filled with dulce de leche, something that I've never experienced before. Because of the filling, they weren't at all dry like many other churros I've had, yet they were still crispy on the outside.
Overall, this little shop was filled with pleasant surprises, and I can definitely recommend it as a great place to get a fresh meal served fast after a long flight!
