Message from Ooba's Mexican Grill
Ooba's has served high-quality, healthy, carb-friendly, affordable Mexican food in a casual, funky restaurant atmosphere since 1997. From chipotle-rubbed chicken grill plates and fresh fish tacos with homemade creme sauce to hand-mixed margaritas and mohitos, all of our items are made fresh to order. If you sit at the bar, you can even hear the meat and fish sizzling right on the grill. Our menu isn't from a specific state or region in Mexico, it is an eclectic mix of food we've carefully chosen over the years that our customers love. You can be assured that every item on the "special" menu has passed the "would we order it again" test. We have something for everyone - vegetarian entrees like wilted spinach quesadillas, low-carb plates, and even special meals for kids.

Very good fresh mex
by CurtNelson
They use good quality, fresh ingredients and put them together in a very tasty way. The service is quick so it's great for lunch.
Pros: Food in general, salsas, quick service

Ugh
by nothard2plz
Bellevue Ooba Tooba: overpriced + cheap ingredients = bad dining experience. I figured I would try their grilled vegetable burrito, assuming I would get the typical bell pepper and onion with those vegetarian black beans and minted rice, minimum. Oh no, what I got instead was steamed, NOT grilled, carrots, broccoli, yellow squash, zucchini and mushrooms. Wait a minute, this is a mexican grill, right? Not a teriyaki joint! To say the least it was completely disgusting. I picked out all the stir fry mixed vegetables and ate the beans and rice until I got frustrated and tossed the last half. Yuck. Never again.

Great lunch spot
by joebugmenot
If you work in downtown Bellevue, do yourself a favor and stop by Ooba's. Their grilled pork burritos are the best. Match it with the tangy green salsa (not the jalapenos) and you're in for a taste sensation.
Pros: Great food, central location
Cons: poor parking, best for take out

Disappointed
by tastereview
I really wish I could say something positive, but I was disappointed in their food. I tried it twice - once I got the scallop tacos and they were chewey/rubbery and fishy tasting. The other time I ate there, it wasn't anything special either. Unfortunately being a short distance from my workplace, It's not on my lunch spots to go to anymore.
Pros: Location great
Cons: quality poor/poor seating

Grills- yummy!
by samram1
The grilled chicken is awesome, I especially love the 'Chicken Achiote Tacos'. The creme agria and the minted rice is yummy as well. Love the yukon gold potatoes in a quesadilla.
Pros: Grilled fare, Fresh taste
Cons: Slow service but thats cos of the crowds! :)
