Mexican Restaurant Chef Specialties

There’s nothing like authentic Mexican food, especially when made with high-quality ingredients using traditional methods. Mexican food has a rich history of cultural tradition, as well as a large variety of ingredients and spices that everyone will love. At Mazatlan Mexican Restaurant, Chef Don Andres Cardenas brings the exciting flavors of authentic Mexican food to Mountlake Terrace, Washington. For an unforgettable dining experience, try our specialty items, located towards the bottom of our menu: 

Chicken Taquitos  

Taquitos are a delicious choice for either an appetizer or a main dish. Our special Chicken Taquitos at Mazatlan feature crisp flour tortillas filled with tender pieces of marinated chicken, garnished with sour cream, guacamole, tomatoes, onions, parmesan cheese, and our special sauce.

Pescado Frito  

Seafood is an important ingredient in many Mexican dishes, given the geographical location of Mexico. Our Pescado Frito is made with a whole fresh tilapia fish, seasoned and marinated in our special way. We fry the fish and serve it alongside rice, cabbage, avocado, and our signature green sauce.  

Tacos Supremos 

Tacos are arguably the most popular and well-known Mexican dish. We make our Tacos Supremos at Mazatlan using sliced charbroiled chicken breast covered in our special molcajete sauce. We then garnish these 3 tacos with shredded Monterrey jack cheese, a sprinkling of fresh cilantro, guacamole, and a side of rice and beans. 

Camarones Vallarta 

If you’re looking for a lighter, healthier option, our Camarones Vallarta is a perfect choice! We saute prawns with fresh broccoli, carrots, zucchini, green and red bell peppers, onions, and chipotle sauce, garnished with avocado slices and served with rice and a garden salad. 

At Mazatlan, we take tradition seriously. Our dishes are created using traditional recipes and flavors for the most delicious and authentic Mexican food possible. Each item on our menu is made with careful attention to detail, using only the freshest ingredients available. Chef Don Andres Cardenas has crafted the menu with dozens of options to choose from, including appetizers, lunch and dinner items, and cocktails.
