Azteca Mexican Restaurant

If the fresh-fried chips with tongue-tickling traditional tomato salsa isn't enough, dive into the indulgent award-winning Nachos Azteca. Don't be in a rush for entrees, though; the Margaritas are irresistible territory. The Molcajete is a highlight: Mexican stew of seafood or chicken and/or beef strips sauteed in a mildly spicy sauce with mushrooms, onions and tomatoes, garnished with melted jack cheese, green onions, jalapeno peppers and avocado. The chiles rellenos, so often bungled by American chefs, arrive fresh, bright and flavorful. The unadulterated guacamole is excellent. Family owned and operated since 1974. This restaurant is located about 1.8 miles from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
