Love this place!!!!!!

by diehardfoodie84 at Citysearch

I have only great things to say about this place. You can smell the grill from blocks away. The steak burrito has the perfect combination of grilled skirt steak, minted rice, pico de gallo, beans, crema chipotle, and guacamole. There is always relatively quick service and the food is well worth the fairly cheap price.

Great grilled meats, veggies, and awesome minted rice and black beans

by mgratzer at Citysearch

This is a great casual joint. The chicken is always grilled perfectly (a little charred on the corners, but still tender and juicy), and the salsa bar is a nice touch. The veggies are always cooked perfectly crisp-tender, with a nice tangy citrus dressing. Even their sides are great - the minted rice is so great, and the black beans are wonderfully tender with an awesome crema on top. The grill plates are huge, and can feed two small eaters very easily. This is one of my regular, reliable spots. I just wish their mixed drinks were better, as I tried their mojitos and margaritas and wasn't fond of them at all (too sweet-tart, like they use a cheap mixer).

• Pros: Great food, reasonable prices
• Cons: Mixed drinks not so great; closed on holidays

Mexican food with character

by riab at Citysearch

A great little spot in a Woodinville strip-mall. It has become a regular favorite of mine. Fresh fish specials, great salsa bar, serves beer & yummy margaritas, mint rice, outdoor seating in the summer... I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this fun little restaurant!

It's all about the meat!

For the most part, everything at Ooba's is just good. The only things that stand out over any other Mexican place is the Mint Rice, and the FLAVOR OF THE MEAT!!! The marinating & grilling of the meat is outstanding. So rediculously flavourful. That is the thing that brings me back for more. Flavourful chicken, & beef that mayeeks maw mawth wwwuhtuh!!!

Oh! And the Salsa bar is quite dope!

• Pros: Mint Rice, Chicken, Beef
• Cons: tad pricey
