Moctezuma's Mexican Restaurant & Tequila Bar

Moctezuma’s Mexican Restaurant & Tequila Bar is a go-to for Mexican cuisine with a modern twist. This festive, spacious restaurant feels both upscale and laid-back, with colorful decor, rustic wood accents, and indoor fire pits. It’s been repeatedly recognized as the “Best Mexican Restaurant” in the area from South Sound Magazine (2013–2022, 2024) and KING 5’s Evening Magazine (2014–2018).

Highlights:

Tableside Fun: Moctezuma’s doesn’t just serve delicious food—they perform it. Their Queso Flameado is set aflame with a shot of tequila before being set on the table in all its gooey goodness. Guests also rave about the fajitas that arrive on an elevated, smoking-hot skillet that’s also set aflame for fun. It’s dinner with a dramatic flair.

Ideal for Celebrations: Moctezuma’s is a popular choice for larger group celebrations. The vibrant atmosphere and thoughtful service make it a top choice for birthdays, date nights, and after work get-togethers.

Impressive Tequila Selection: The bar features dozens of premium tequilas and mezcals to sip and sample. Try them straight, or in a classic margarita or specialty cocktail. You can even order a margarita flight to sample several flavors.

The Vibe
Moctezuma’s always feels like a welcoming party. Picture a festive blend of Latin music, sizzling platters, and joyful conversations echoing through warm, artful interiors. As one reviewer put it, “It’s not just the food, it’s how you feel when you’re here—welcomed, celebrated, full.”
