Bandido's
Redmond, WA · Serving since 2001

Look for the red truck with the mural.

Bandido's has been parked in Redmond for twenty-five years — three addresses, one town. The truck itself is easy to spot once you're in the lot; the trick is knowing which lot. It's tucked off a side road on 164th Ave NE, sharing space with a couple of other trucks.

The thing to know before you drive over

It's easy to miss the turn, not the truck.

Once you're looking at it, Bandido's is impossible to mistake for anything else — bright red, a hand-painted mural on the side, "Bandido's Taco Truck" across the front. The part that trips people up is the lot itself: it's tucked off a side road, not fronting the main street, sharing space with a couple of other trucks.

1

Turn onto 164th Ave NE and watch for a small truck lot, not a storefront.

Bandido's is the bright red truck with the mural — you can't miss it once you're in the lot.

Nearby: Wild Bill's BBQ, Vanity Dog, 5 Stones Coffee — you're in the right lot.

What people order

Burritos that need two hands.

California, adobada, carne asada, veggie — choice of meat, no exceptions. Reviewers keep reaching for the same kind of comparison no matter which one they order.
