Burritos El Incapaz

Found this little place in down town Kent with all the local construction and modernization happening it a is pleasure to find this mom and pops feeling restaurant.
As per my standard food choice I went with a chicken enchiladas with rice and beans. The food is delicious, well seasoned and portion sizes fit the price. Lunch specials draw me in and the prompt service and great feel have me coming back.

Great food at very fair prices. Portion was perfect size to not make me lay on a couch incapacitated. The people were very pleasant. I had the steak taco salad and my wife the tacos. We will definitely be back!
UPDATE: Had the Streak Burrito yesterday, best burrito I’ve ever had.

Service was terrible and the food was so bland and tasteless. However the home made chips were very good

Nice family owned restaurant… We had a coupon for bogo free. Got their beef nachos and chicken burrito which were both good… They use processed cheese on their nachos which I like but I know most people hate… My daughter had their cheese quesadilla and loved it! She hardly ever eats when we eat out… They have a little girl there who played with my daughter before our food came out so it was definitely a «homie» feel there…

Slow service, due to not enough help. But the spice of the food more than makes up for it. And you can easily see into preparation of the food. Maybe not the best if in a rush but with a day to burn. The flavor and heat worth it.

I tend to like small, family run businesses more than chains, so I tried this place since it’s close to work, and I had a BOGO coupon. The food was fairly good, but they mixed up the order by mismarking which burrito was mine. This wasn’t the real issue I had-​it was how disgustingly dirty it is inside. There was loose crap all over the floor, dirty tables with food under them, a magazine rack that was obviously not used tor its intended purpose and everything was worn out and cheap. They didn’t even bother removing the horrible brown leaves on the ceiling that were leftover from the Italian joint that was here before. Normally I don’t have a problem with some level of disarray or clutter, but I draw the line with trash strewn about somewhere you’re going to eat at. The word I can best use to describe the feeling is «skeevy», and I really don’t feel like playing russian roulette by eating there. I realize these people come from a shithole country, but why does your place of business have to be that way also?

The reason I didn’t give this place 5 stars, was how SLOW the service was… but, it was worth it, in my honest opinion. My BFF & I almost walked out after seating ourselves, & then waiting for a LONG long time to even have someone come to our table & give us menus. We had ALMOST left at that point, but, then she walked up with menus & I needed a little something before the drive home. We decided to stay. I ordered some chicken soft tacos off the appetizer portion of the menu, & OH MY GOODNESS, they were soooooo DELICIOUS!!! My BFF shared them with me, & also bought a HUGE burrito with carne asada to bring home to her brother.

Let me get the negative out of the way first — service is slow, really slow. If you don’t mind talking to whoever you’re with — then this can be overcome with a little conversation. If you like a little less conversation and a little more action then … wait for it… put on some Elvis!
Anyway, we went in looking for some machaca for breakfast (which they did not have) and wound up eating carne asada street tacos and some kind of Mexican scrambled eggs with beans and rice. Everything was tasty, beans were fresh, meat was tender and juicy — everything tasted really good. What really surprised us; we ordered a juice. Couldn’t quite figure out what it was supposed to be from the menu or from the waitress’ description (she barely spoke English) but it looked semi good so we ordered it. So we were talking (by that I mean we were each on our phones playing something or other) not paying much attention when I looked over and saw her actually making the juice — beets, orange, carrots — into the juicer they went and an ice cold glass of red juice appeared at our table. Now I’m not really a beet kinda guy, but this was pretty good. I might even order it again next time. One other note, salsa was kinda runny but it tasted good, hot. Chips were fresh-​made on site. I definitely would go back.

This place is the spot for some of the best Mexican food in Washington hit it up if you’re wanting to have your taste buds amazed :)

Man. This was very good food.
My wife and I were looking for a café to have lunch, and found our planned destination to be closed. So, we went to Burritos El Incapaz instead.
I had two chicken tacos (con todo), with rice and beans. My wife had the torta with chicken.
Sure, we didn’t order the most complicated dishes… and didn’t really have any expectations going in. But, we were really pleased. My wife said, «beans like my Mama makes them.» And, of course, the salsa was home-​made and superb. The freshly fried chips were super delicious.
You also can’t beat the price. We both had a _​great_​lunch that left us satisfied for ~$ 13.00. I told the cook /​waitress that the foot was wonderful and that we’d be back for a date night someday soon.
This would definitely rank higher than what _​used_​to be our favorite Mexican restaurant: Mi Charrito Taqueria (university district, Seattle, WA).
I encourage anyone going here to tip generously.

Found this place by accident. I really was not sure what to expect once I got there. The menu was kind of confusing. There was pizza on the menu? We waited by the front door for some time before any one attended us. We ended up ordering to go as it didnt seem like a welcoming staff. We ordered a Torta Ahogada. It was not good at all. The sauce seemed ketchup or plain tomato sauce. It was not what I was expecting at all. I was very disappointed from every aspect of our visit.

Since moving to Kent there has been one thing I have noticed. That is the abundance of decent to great Mexican Restraunts. Sadly though Burritos el Incapaz is not one of them. How I heard about them was by a coupon on the back of a grocery receipt.
That should have been a sign to stay away. But on those occassions I do find little hole in the walls that are great. As you enter the restraunt you see a small but cute set up. With a long communial table made up of several small round tables.
As well as large flat screen tv. On this visit it was either slow or my friend and myself made the biggest mistake ever. Sadly it was the latter. The highlights will be presented first.
The after dinner mint and the beverages. That is it. I wish I could find a highlight about our food. It is just not possible to. For our starter we got the nachos. Which at first glance looked amazing.
A large plate filled with a heeping helping of nachos. But upon first bite. You realize that for one the cheese and nachos are all cold. Then when you dig alittle deeper the was a a vast amount of liquid from the pico and the salsa under everything.
As per my usual I let a strike go by as the food was at least palatable. Then came the main course carne asade enchiladas. Yea well the enchiladas where covered in a blood red enchilada sauce. Which looked and tasted a lot like marinara sauce.
Well they do serve pizza here as well. So maybe it was a mix up. It turned out it wasnt. Both my friend and myself couldn’t come to eat the enchiladas. As he put it everything tastes like wax. The owner acted as if we where insulting to him by not eating his food.
But that was not the case. It was genuinely bad and not worth the money spent. They just like the nachos where not hot and the cheeze was still solid and not melted inside. The carne asada again had no flavor was burnt and was cold.
It was really just a awful expeirence. Would I go back? Would subjicate a enemy to this food? No that would be torture. Does 1 star equal what this place deserves? No that my friends is the greatest insult. I can not give them the zero they deserve.

A hole in the wall in a good way! Everything was made fresh to order with hand made cut and fried tortilla chips before dinner. I had the pork Carnitas platter and my wife had a grilled chicken platter. Plenty of food and very flavorful. Not much of a selection for beverages but lots of choices for menu items. If you aren’t looking for a huge bar menu or fancy surrounding, just great food, this is a place to try out for sure.

We just recently relocated from Renton over to Kent. I was driving around and found this little, as I LOVE to call them, «Hole in the wall» place. I was really excited, thinking that I might get some great Mexican food. So, when we had the opportunity to get out for a meal the other night, it was an easy decision to drive over to El Incapaz. That, my friends, was a very bad decision.
When we arrived, there was just one customer in the entire place. He was sitting there, waiting for his order. We sat at a table and had a woman give us menus. She informed us that she’d be right with us. We perused the menu, and we shocked to find that it was quite limited, and a big chunk was filled up with pizza options, burgers, and a kids menu.
It took about 15 minutes before the woman came back to take our drink order. We decided to order a beer (since we’d been told by some friends, on Facebook, that it was National Beer Day). This place offered THREE choices. That’s it. Not impressed, we went with Corona. First, we were brought glasses, on a plate, with the HUGEST slices of lemon. The glasses weren’t cold, and they were dirty. YUCK! And the lemons were way too big to put in the bottle. I prefer lime anyway. Our drinks were served, by their daughter. Normally, it wouldn’t bother me… because I’m a huge supporter of small, family owned/​run businesses. But, their daughter was MAYBE 10 — 12 years old. That’s it. And, she brought us the beers, OPEN! This is illegal. A miner, and a very young one at that, brought us open containers of alcohol. It was quite disturbing, in our eyes. (Now, I’m from California… are the laws different here in Washington?)
Our food finally arrived. We got a little order of chicken taquitos. THAT’S where we should have stopped with our food. It was decent, and we at through them without problem (even though the toppings were lacking something). When our dinner was served, we we both highly disappointed by the food.
I got an asada burrito. It was barely passable for warm. My rice was cold and the beans tasted like they’d been cooked in a pot where the bottom burnt, and that burnt taste was in the beans. My wife got the carne asada platter. Same for her rice and beans. Her asada wasn’t very tender and she didn’t eat even half of it.
We brought our food home, but didn’t eat the leftovers. We didn’t complain, because honestly, it just wasn’t worth it. But, we won’t be going back to this little «hole in the wall» again.
I’m so glad that I’m going home, to San Diego, for a vacation, in a few weeks. I’m going to get my fill of Mexican food. Washington State, in the last year, has really left me unimpressed and sorely aching for REALLY GOOD Mexican food. Not that I haven’t found enjoyable places, but there is always something missing. This place missed them all, and that makes me sad.

with all the good mexican food in kent why go here,

This is the third restaurant in this location since we moved to Kent in mid-​2007. The previous two were Soprano’s (Greek/​Italian) and Bev’s Cucina (Italian).
This is Mexican food, and seems less Americanized to me than other nearby restaurants, and more reminiscent of my time in Los Angeles.
I had a burrito with Carne Asada. A good size, and tasty. My wife had pork carnitas, which were unusual in the pork seemed almost like cubes from a chop, instead of pulled pork. They had a birria (goat) special according to a sign in the window, which they do in the stew style. I didn’t try it, but hope to soon. Tortilla chips and salsa were provided for free as an appetizer — obviously fried on the spot, and very warm.
All in all, a very solid contender. Price was $ 24.50 for the two of us with tax and tip, so $ 12.25/each.
