These burritos are HUGE. Honestly, the size of my mid torso. They generally serve then "wet" - which is good, but makes them exceptionally rich. We came here before prom, and it w...

Yes, Bimbo's looks cool. I've been in there several times over the past few years, and the decor is cool. However, their service has progressively become worse over the past two...

Don't worry, that's not Peyote in your Burrito! 5/11/2006

The decor is like Mexico on LSD: overwhelming, harsh, South-of-the-border. The food is better than the typical hole-in-the-wall place, and at times surprising. They have added some extra touches to differentiate their food from the typical Mexican restaurant fare. Don't expect to find the place packed with natives, however, their innovations won't remind anyone of home. But it's a nice place to have a cheap date. more

One of the best in Seattle 3/3/2006

My buddy Matt and I are in search of the perfect burrito and Bimbo's is solid. If you are REALLY brave get their jalapeno loaded hot one, it will kick your ass for sure. The back of my neck sweats when I eat one. As for the service, it is good and bad all at the same time but get over it, you're in the Haight of Seattle. Upodate: 3/3/2006 Just went again and must say their homemade salsa on the side is a MUST and the Supreme Burrito with fresh jalapenos and steak is superb. Service was again on the just OK side but got us our food and was fast. They open at noon so don't get there early either. more

Classic seattle joint 1/26/2006

I eat here since it was a small holebefore the dining room expansion. I like the roasted potato with chicken the most. The staff are genuinely btchy, but not rude, so I don't mind. It's a good escape from the Seattle's gagging passive "niceness". The velvet artworks on the wall are exquisite. more

Ok food, bad service 9/26/2005

The best part of Bimbo's is the lime jello for dessert. And really, you can make lime jello at home. The burritos are o.k. I actually like the quesadillas better. The service isn't great, you'll wait awhile for any "extra" help. The best part about Bimbo's is the decor: Fun, campy Mexican. more

Remember, you're paying for smarm and attitude 8/21/2005

Look. If you eat at a place on Capitol HIll, you're going to get a Capitol Hill attitude. The waiters don't care if you want more water. They'll bring it to you when THEY are ready. But that's to be expected. Just know this going in and you'll be fine. The portions are huge and the decor is interesting. It's typical Capitol Hill Goofy Chic with snobby waitstaff and snobby clientelle. Do not even think of eating here on a weekend night, because right next door is a bar and the patrons spill out of one and into the other. So-So food in an interesting environment. There are better Mexican restaurants in Seattle, but none of them have the panache that Bimbo's does. And none of them have a dirty word in their name. more

Not the Burritos that are "Bitchin'" 8/16/2005

It's the staff. With a cool name and even better aesthetics inside at the Capital Hill burrito shop, you really want to like it. But ultimately you are left with the question "Is Mexican food supposed to be this bland?" When you combine the sub par food with the smarmy and humor-free staff that treat you like an intruder whom they are very inconvenienced to serve, the whole experience actually makes you long for Taco Time. more
