Poquitos Tacoma

I was initially hesitant to dine here due to negative reviews, but decided to give it a chance. Overall, it was a positive experience and I would consider returning. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance with its low lighting was pleasant. They had a good variety of vegetarian and gluten-free options. The cauliflower appetizer was tasty, though it could have used a touch of salt. The kale and mushroom tacos were enjoyable, and the side salad add-on was a good value at $3. The purist margarita was delicious. While our server took a bit long to greet us, the service was still satisfactory. The prices were reasonable. The only downside was that the staff seemed inexperienced, despite it not being busy. I hope they can improve and succeed. I have yet to bring my children here, but I am hopeful that it is kid-friendly. I may update my review after trying it with them.

I was nervous about eating here after reading the bad reviews, but decided to give it a try. Overall, it was a good experience and I would go back. Pros: Hosts were really nice and welcoming. Nice, low lighting in the space. Plenty of veg and gluten free options. Cauliflower appetizer was good, although could have used a little salt. Kale and mushroom tacos were good, and the side salad add on was really nice and a good size for $3. The purist margarita was great. Server was nice. Prices are reasonable. Cons: Even though it wasnt busy it took too long for our server to come to our table to greet us, which made me nervous that the whole experience would be a bust (luckily it wasn't!) The staff seems inexperienced and new to the industry, even though we went on a Saturday evening. Hopefully they can work out the kinks and stay in business, I'd really like them to succeed! I haven't tried coming here with my kids yet, hoping they are kid-friendly. May update review after giving it a try.
