Name a better comfort food combo than savory tacos and a cold margarita. We’ll wait. This tasty Seattle taco bar has it all, from mouth-watering bites to laid-back vibes. And there’s even a bar in the back!

Situ Tacos is known for its delicious Mexican/Lebanese fusion cuisine that’s made with love and served with sass.

It all started with the restauranteur’s Situ, which is Arabic for Grandma. The crunchy tacos they’re known for are made with tortillas that are fried, stuffed, and sewn together with toothpicks before being pan-fried to a delicious golden crisp. You can also choose whichever toppings you like!

Tilda’s Lounge is the vibrant little bar tucked at the back of Situ Tacos. You may initially stop by for a bite of those tasty tacos, but after 4 PM Tilda’s Lounge is open for you to order slushies, margaritas, seasonal-infused cocktails, and a massive selection of Mexican beer.

Of course, you can still order a drink from Situ’s before 4 PM, but only if you ask nicely!

If you need some inspiration, they just dropped a Fall Paloma with tequila, lime, grapefruit juice, house-made syrup, and a splash of lemon-lime soda. Yum!

Make sure you try out their happy hour from 3 PM to 6 PM every Sunday to Thursday. You can save $1 off all margaritas and house cocktails, try the cocktail of the week, and score a house-made red or white sangria for only $5!

Who’s hungry?
