Joined co-workers for Happy Hour here. I get quite anxious about finding parking and was happy when my coworker let me know there were a couple of parking garages nearby. Located on a corner in downtown Bothell, the restaurant is surrounded by outdoor seating areas. We sat inside because....winter :). The stunning interior decorations, with different textures, levels, and colors, leave you with many visual pleasures. Five of us claimed a long, slender table in the bar with cushioned tall bar seats near the window. Inside, there's a warm, autumn rustic ambiance with string lighting in the bar and plentiful seating throughout the restaurant. I did have a little trouble locating the restrooms, which are right down the hall past the kitchen. This is a small plate, signature-style cocktail place, so smaller, quality portions are expected. I ordered a Mocktail Margarita for my beverage. The non-alcoholic version wasn't my favorite, but the margarita flavor was great! We ordered chips and salsa, tacos, and loaded fries for the table. The salsas came in three varieties with a wide range of flavors, and the spice was minimal. The taco I ate had a good portion of meat, but the tortilla was falling apart, which made it a little messier to eat. The server was attentive and came by often to clear the table and make sure drinks were filled. He was friendly, welcoming, and attentive. They had enough on the Happy Hour menu to give us options and keep us entertained. The group ended with an order of churros for dessert, which was a good choice! I would suggest giving it a try for Happy Hour. Great rustic, upscale vibes!

Stopped in for a quick meal before starting work. I ordered the shrimp special with a side of steak and it absolutely hit the spot for treating myself. The butterflied shrimp were wonderfully seasoned with a little of that open flame char, the steak added a great compliment to my shrimp making it a stupendous surf and turf combo that I haven't had in awhile. The pickled onions added a punch of flavor and the plating is beautiful. Hats off to the chef!!

A group of six tried Poquitos tonight and it did not disappoint. The drinks were delicious, the nachos were fresh and crispy. We ordered the salsa and the queso and they were sooo good. We all had different food. I had the enchiladas mole which were very good. Others had the enchiladas with Verde sauce, enchiladas with red sauce, two had burritos with asada filling. Everyone loved their meals! The waitress was patient and explained some items for us. We all agreed we would go back The restaurant is very pretty inside as well!

Went on Friday evening and it was crowded so server gave us a separate place to sit. Food was nice we ordered all 3 types of taco , portion was small that 3 taco could only fill one person. Server was little rude and she literally took all the menu so reducing a star. Ambiance is lively but parking is tough . You can park in parking next to Anderson school. It's expensive place and they charged extra for the sauce too.

The ambiance was clean and unique!! Friendly service, all the staff was helpful/nice!! We stopped in here to watch the Seahawks/Lions game!! Our waitress was very attentive, checking up on us frequently/engaging in conversation, which was a nice change. The menu isn't very big, more like a happy hour kinda dive of which we made just in time!! We started with Salsa trio & chips! Loved the different salsas and flavors. We ordered Corn Esquites and ate it with chips this dish was so flavorful!!! I ordered carne asada fries. It came portion sized (something you can totally finish and not waste), lots of flavors throughout and delicious! My BF ordered Tuna tostada not his favorite. He said it had a lot of flavors going on. I was so hungry upon arriving I didn't take any pictures of the food!! You do receive this cute little post card with your bill!!

8/22 - The lunch service was so great! The waiter always checked in. I came here once before wanting go try the quesadilla and loved it! My friend very much loved the salad as well. I really liked the quest from the Tres Amigos! Haven't been disappointed here yet!

This has been one of my favorite Mexican spots for the past three years! The chips and salsa are not free, or inexpensive. However, I would say that they are 100% worth it! That verde salsa leaves my mouth watering! Sweet, with a very nice spicy tang! If you want to go up a notch, try the Tres Amigos! It is my go to! Best queso I've ever tasted! Literally bowl licking worthy. I'm dead serious. If you are captivated enough to try out some meals, here is what I recommend. The grilled chicken quesadilla is quite fabulous. The fresh pico and finishing sauce drizzle ties the flavorfull crispy dish altogether! Another delicious go to would be the taco sampler. A delectable combination of succulent meats. All layered with fantastic toppings! The service I have here is almost always wonderful! I especially enjoy having Brandon as my waiter! He is so kind, talkative, and helpful! I had a birthday dinner hosted here a couple years ago and the entire staff was wonderful during that time as well! Great for big parties!! The atmosphere of the restaurant is lovely. I appreciate the dimmer lighting! Definitely a must try if you are in the area! :)
