El Chupacabra - Seattle

Great food and great staff. Lupita was excellent and Jay couldn't be a better host

I love the jalapeno poppers here so much! Best poppers around by far! I'm pretty sure no kids allowed it had signs saying 21 or older. The parking was a little hard to find for me but it was dark out and during rush hour so I bet it's not usually that difficult. I really love this place and the vibes here. I wish I took pics of my food to post but I didn't think of it until after I ate it lol!

I’ve gone late at night to sit at the bar with a girlfriend and have a drink at the end of a long week. I’ve gone at dinner time with family to enjoy a really delicious and filling meal when we didn’t feel like cooking. The prices are reasonable at $15 a burrito and $3 for chips and delicious salsa. The dips are fantastic and filling. If you don’t believe me try the queso dip, and the black bean dip. The nachos are an outstanding option here, and seemingly irresistible: it’s impossible for people not to reach over and enjoy it with you. Try it with the Carnitas, if you are not a vegetarian. If you don’t, normally, I would highly recommend you try having a burrito wet. Ask for both green and red sauce is. The fish burrito is excellent and comes with a white cheese sauce akin to the queso. And when, in doubt order the scratch margarita. But if you can handle some heat, the jalapeño margaritas, my favorite. Great outdoor area for eating if you’re concerned about being indoors. Heating and comfortable.

One of my favorite spots for Mexican food in Seattle! I've been to El Chupacabra about a dozen times and it keeps delivering great food. Everything I've tried here is delicious! As a vegetarian, I love that there are so many options for meat-alternatives. Their homemade salsas are phenomenal and their margaritas are amazing!

Excellent Mexican-American food with dive bar vibes. Killer rice and beans with a margarita
