Very nice and cosy Mexican Bar Restaurant. We spend some hours with our team event. All kind of Mexican finger food was served as buffet. The cocktails are very goood. Staff is smiling and helpful. This was a nice experience. René.

I loved this place. Good location when exploring downtown. Stopped in when it was super busy, and still got a seat pretty quickly. Love the decor and ambience. Got to check out the pinata room. LGBTQ friendly. I had the kimchi beef quesadilla and I thought it was very yummy! The taquitos were tasty as well.

Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! That was the most amazing burrito I've ever had! That in comparison to Mexican joints in SF, San Diego, & Los Angeles, is something to Cantina Leña can be proud of. The flavors from the meats and the slaw and the sauces blended so smokily well together. Props to the chef for the food and Melissa for being an awesome server. And, it paired all too perfectly together with a Michelada. If you order the Kaiju burrito, be forewarned, it's massive. The three of us could not finish it. That means more for later!

Jackfruit taco was underwhelming in taste, but still nice for those looking for a good vegan option. Jalapeńo margarita is amazing! Kimchi quesadilla is super filling and perfect for a hangover. Definitely dive into the nachos and ask to add beef!

We come here for lunch when in the area. They have delicious drinks. They're string while being a little spendy. The food is delicious. They have great salsas. The red is delicious and smoky. The green has a kick.

Good Mexican food for downtown Seattle area, right next to Cinerama! The queso dip was amazing & the sandwich was delicious. However, the menu was limited (no fajitas, for example), more of a bar focused place. Good to hangout & would get the queso again!

Hands down, best tacos I've ever had. Started with the brisket, ended with the chicken. Fried pinto beans were awesome. I'd eat here everynight if I could. Great location, cool vibe, friendly staff. Solid house margarita as well.

Seriously one of the best chips and salsa ever. Perfectly charred and mashed so the flavors blend well. Fun, hip place to hang. The fried pinto beans are to die for. Try the jackfruit tacos. Yumm. After a long time eating food that has a range of flavors.

My family and I swung by here for lunch right before our movie at the Cinerama, next door. We found the food delicious! The breakfast burrito, wet, was very tasty. I loved the fried potatoes and the cheese sauce they drizzled it with. I had a gin and tonic and I found it very refreshing and would've ordered another, had time permitted. Food did take a bit to get out to us but honestly, it was all so good, we didn't seem to mind after being served. We definitely plan on coming back - that or I could see swinging by for dinner and drinks.
