In Short – The Mardi Gras-on-acid decor (loud music, glitter, Day-Glo and kitsch) seems an appropriate setting fort the hipster Capitol Hill clientele. The menu is a fairly standard--burritos, tacos, quesadillas--with a few quirks thrown in for good measure. To put a new spin on the traditional, try a dollop of the pungent, cumin-lime sour cream. The fresh guacamole complements rather than dominates. Most food items are made from local, organic ingredients.

Inconsistently Served?

by A Scott

Um, half of the times I've been here, I've ordered a burrito to go with no problems. The burritos are awesome. The other half I have been met at the door and refused to-go service because I am not of age... to take out? So now I'm just confused as to whether I should try again.

  • Pros: Awesome burrito!
  • Cons: Not sure if I can eat here

Hi eatinlady, I'm Matt the chef of the Iris Grill in Issaquah. I feel truley horrible about your experience at our restaurant and I would very much like to get some more specific feedback. I honestly haven't been able to stop thinking about your critique and would like to talk to you about the menu as I am always striving to get better. I hope we can turn this around. Thanks, and regards, Matt

R.I.P Bimbo's Bitchen Burrito Kitchen.

by eatinlady

When I first moved to Seattle, I was smitten with BBBK. The lime crema and well made burritos were a comfort to me, having just left Southern Californias heavily mexican food saturation. I was looking for a good mexicali meal when I found BBBK. Now it has moved and the flavor is gone. The cantina is fine, but it is not fit to be called Bimbo's.

:(

  • Pros: the name
  • Cons: the rest.

The Details on Bimbos Cantina

What to Drink:

Bimbo's joins a small group of places offering a fresh, homemade sour blend for its margaritas. This difference is evident in the house margarita with Patron tequila--a fragrant, fruity concoction with a seductive, extended finish.
