Birrieria Y Taqueria La Costena

The tortas at La Costeña are a must!! I could eat here three times a day. The burritos and tacos are delicious, too! Try the different types of salsa?especially the chiles toreados (fried jalapeños). This is the best Mexican food truck in the area! Definitely worth the drive to Renton. They have the Coca-Cola in the glass bottle champurrado, too!

Our new favorite taco place is right here! Delicious beef birria tacos with some spice to warm your soul. Do no skip the consomé (soup) side, this is the real gem. Dip your tacos in this incredible dip and do your happy dance!

I used their online order platform and placed my order at 1:41pm(fyi you pay in person so filling out your address for payment is a waste of time) I arrived at 1:58. The woman seemed surprised and took my payment. She then told me 5 minutes for my food. It's now 2:17 and still no update on my food. Seems like they had just started it when I paid, which negates the point of ordering ahead for us workers on a short lunch break. I wouldn't have minded it taking longer but they should have been honest about the timeline I could have easily gone down the street to pick up my Target drive up order in the meantime had I known it was going to be at least 10 minutes(notice how reasonable I am about at least being given an inaccurate 10 minutes timeline estimate?I've been waiting 27 minutes at the time of this edit 2:25). I didn't go cause she said 5 minutes and didn't want my food to get cold had I ran that quick errand. My lunch break will be over when I return to work by the time I get my food. I'm going to stick to Birrieria Monerca for take out orders. To add when I got there it was completely dead and I was taking a late lunch so we'll past the lunch hour peak rush. 2:20 I asked for an update all I got is my food is coming. I don't care how good it is, I don't appreciate my time being wasted. I only ordered two plates as seen in my photo I will post. Once I try my food hopefully before 2:30 I will update regarding taste. Update I got my food at 2:28 around the same time two ladies who arrived 5 minutes after me had ordered at the window so I suppose my hypothesis of my food not being prepared when I input it online ahead of time is correct. These ladies ordered more than myself as well. The first glance my order is correct which is good however for the prices that they are charging which is about $3 per taco the size is very small street taco size at the other two birrera places I've been which is in Tukwila and white center the size at least standard tortilla size. I'

Authentic Mexican Tacos ! Home made tortillas and great beans and rice fresh made !

Absolutely delicious! Nothing fancy, just really good homemade food. Their spicy salsa will warm you up on the coldest days. May seem like a small portion size for the cost, but I'm fine with giving them my money. My tummy is happy.
