Taqueria El Sazon

While the food in this place is good they have the worse staff of any restaurant I have been in. They need to hire new people that actually care about hospitality.

This place was the bizzomb. Some locals recommended & it was amazing. They have a salsa bar, make homemade corn tortillas & chips, lunch special was $ 6 for two big pieces of grilled chicken (yum!) w/​rice & beans & tortillas. It was almost enough for two. I got a few $ 1 tacos (carne asada & a few others are $ 1.50, I believe) & they were 3.5 stars. Overall, it was everything I could ask for & we only spent $ 10 for two people. Whoa.

Fast, friendly service. Good tacos, fresh tortillas, I would come back for the food, but be forwarned, the place is pretty messy.

Finally a good Mexican breakfast burrito. I can only speak to the chorizo burrito, but for $ 3.70 it was filling and yummy. I’m a white girl, but I can chow down on some seriously spicy Mexican grub. I’ve gotten this burrito 3 times and keep requesting the habanero salsa and jalapenos, but they give me a skeptical look and it has yet to be spicy enough for my liking. I promise I can handle it! Otherwise 5 stars for this upscale hole in the wall joint.

Good food! Wish I could keep on eating. Order then brought to table. Most patrons were Mexicans which tells me a lot. Prices good and menu is large. I love Mexican food and Pasco has a lot of good Mexican places to eat. Get here on business a couple times a year and will seek this place out in the future.

The best Mexican restaurant in town! A perfect middle between to a sit down restaurant and a casual take out lobby. You pay for your food at the front counter, and can choose to take it to go, or sit down in the restaurant style lobby. We couldn’t believe how fast the food came out! In three minutes our enchiladas were brought out to us, and they tasted even better than those at the bigger Mexican restaurants.
But also, cheap! We got both of our plates and drinks for $ 22, and had plenty to eat. If you’re looking for delicious authentic restaurant style food, great atmosphere, low prices, and fast service, I would highly recommend eating here.

This place is a true hole in the wall, and I love it! It has amazing asada taco’s, great sopitos, and I love their chips!!! They have a good salsa bar, and their guacamole is delicious! I even got their flan which is tastey. I mixed the guacamole with their coleslaw and used that to dip my chips in, and I was in heaven!!! The staff was very nice as well!!! This will be my go to food place when I am in Pasco!

Looked for an authentic taqueria to appeal my cravings! Found this place on Unilocal when visiting for a couple of days.
The place did look modern and clean. Inside was the same and they even had flat panel TV menus. Pretty snazzy.
The service was ok. It was more of an «in and out» kind of feel. Weird thing was I mentioned to the cashier that we found them on Unilocal and she had no idea what Unilocal was. I forgot we were out of the country.
Food was pretty good. Quick but I would not call it authentic. More along the lines of the typical fast food taquerias you see pop up.

Nicest authentic taqueria I’ve been to anywhere on the west coast. And I’ve been to lots. The homemade corn tortillas are the very best I’ve ever had. Salsa bar fresh and clean. Absolutely lovely!

Me an my family decided to go for dinner. All the kids and adults ordered our food. Halfway through our meal we discover a full grown mature cockroach sitting in the food. We told the manager and he just said he was sorry, didn’t offer to not charge us for the food until I told him I would not pay him for his disgusting cockroach. Finally after i made a scene he then offered to give me a discount ! I told him to F off. Went home called my friends and family only to hear that they all had experienced this before with the cockroaches and that it was all over Facebook. Sucks to be me I guess. Save yourself the crunchy cockroaches and don’t go here. You would think after so many complaints they would be shut down ! I have uploaded a picture on the cockroach. Scroll through to see for yourself.

My mom and I found this restaurant passing through town and we were amazed! when you walk in they are making their own tortillas in front of you. Everything was extremely authentic and quality, from the salsa bar to the fantastic flavorful meats (we had the pulled pork and beef). To top it off, a great fun vibe with extremely friendly staff. If you’re passing through the tri cities and want a delicious, affordable, and fast alternative to fast food, you must go here!

Had 3 taco plate, rice and beans priced at $ 8.99 with soda. Very good. Generally all of the food coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. Lines almost out the door to order. Gave only 4 stars because the restaurant needed cleaning, bathrooms were bad.

El Sazon was my favorite taco shop when they first opened. But it seems like they don’t care much to clean the restaurant tables and chairs are always grimy and dirty. The food quality has gone down since they first opened the Pasco location. If I do eat at el Sazon I usually will only go to the Kennewick location. Seems like they take better care of that location

Love it this place never disappoints. My step dads family owns it which makes me feel even more at home. Whatever it is i try im always very happy. Best part is they’re one of the few places that have cow intestinesand dont charge extra for them.

Food is ok. There are other more fresh choices. We are pretty spoiled with good Mexican food in the Tri-​Cities. The burritos seem a little pricey for the experience. The meats are pretty greasy. The people are nice.

The food was good! First time here and I just flew in from California to see family. Menu was good and reasonable pricing on items. I ordered the Carne asada plate and it was delicious. Had it with flour tortillas. They do make fresh corn tortillas! Their salsas were fresh and you can choose from 4 different ones ranging from mild to hot. Only wish they did chips and salsa while you wait for your food. Overall a good experience, place was clean as well as the bathroom. Will visit again when I am back in the area.

This is one of those places where you order at the counter, then the food comes to your table. And it comes quickly.
We came in a group of five, and ordered everything from the taco plate to pozole. They even serve menudo. The pozole I ordered had melted cheese in the large «chips,» which I wasn’t expecting but thoroughly enjoyed. I’ve consumed my fair share of pozole at several different places, and this was by far the best. Generous serving of pork in the soup.
The service was friendly, and efficient.
This will definitely be in my list when we’re at the nearby community college.

Amazing, authentic Mexican. Great salsa bar! Loved the beans and chimichanga. Will go back next time we are in Pasco. Look for the anchor (an old skippers building).

With so many Mexican restaurants to choose from in Pasco, you wonder which one to choose, right? Well, I’ll help you out and say El Sazon! This place offers fresh and tasty food. It was so good that we came here two nights in a row.
The camarones tostada was super fresh and perfectly seasoned. Besides chopped up pieces of shrimp, they added julienned red onions, chopped mangoes, tomatoes and sliced avocado. It was not too salty nor was the shrimp mushy. It was DELICIOUS!
The menudo was chock full of tripe. They’ll ask you at the counter if you want to add either pig’s feet or hominy. Personally, I’m not a fan of hominy so I passed but not on the pig’s feet. It was tender and huge. I ordered it both nights.
He ordered the enchiladas and flautas plate with the rice and beans. Man, you can’t go wrong with anything you order. The beef was sooooo tender! A lot of Mexican restaurants have a tendency to dry out their steaks. Not these folks.
Without a doubt, when we’re back in Pasco, we will come back! I already miss the restaurant.

Really good fresh authentic food. Not too greasy and great options. You know it’s going to be good when all the clientele are Hispanic.
