Poquitos - Capitol Hill does not currently offer reservations Friday and Saturday evenings after 6:30pm.
Poquitos Chef Manny Arce offers authentic presentations of traditional Mexican cuisine while utilizing the regional benefit of high quality Northwest farms and purveyors. Over 14,000 Talavera tiles from Puebla, Mexico and a variety of Mexican artisan design pieces combine to create an environment that is unique not only to Capitol Hill but Seattle as well. Our outdoor covered patio, with radiant heat, two fireplaces, and 12-seat bar is enjoyable whether for a Sunday lunch or a Friday night cocktail.

    Food was quick and of great quality. Only thing was we only saw our server one time, otherwise we had to flag down other staff as they assisted other tables.

    Good service. Pleasant setting. But the pork tacos were not good. The pork was not tender or flavorful. Marinated pork should be very tender and should not be tough.
    Poquitos - Capitol HillResponded on January 28, 2025
    Dale, thank you for your feedback. I'm glad to hear the service and setting were enjoyable, but I apologize that the pork tacos didn't meet expectations. We always invite our guests to let their server know when something isn't living up to your expectations so we can make sure you leave happy and satisfied. If you'd like to discuss further or have any other concerns, feel free to reach out.

    Delicious food, and kindest possible service for my elderly mother in a wheelchair, with a much-appreciated offer to turn down the music. I understand why she’s been coming here for years, and we’ll certainly keep coming!

    Our group was there for a Sunday brunch! We enjoyed sitting in the side area that has all the windows! The service was fine and so were the drinks! However, the food had its ups and downs! Most of the members in our group were ok with their meals, however the three who had the chorizo hash did not enjoy their dishes! The hash was very saucy and mainly potatoes, not sure if there was any chorizo in the dish. We would all return but just stay away from the hash!

    Harvey, thanks for sharing your feedback with us at Poquitos Capitol Hill! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the ambiance and drinks during brunch.
