Reception

Aimee Rizzo included the business in The Infatuation 2020 list of the best meals in Seattle for $30 or less. She has also recommended the restaurant for group dinners.[8] During the COVID-19 pandemic, Eater Seattle included Sal Y Limón in an overview of the city's best take-out eateries for tacos. In the website's 2022 list of ten "great" eateries near the Seattle Center, Jade Yamazaki Stewart called the stews "satisfying and filling" and said Sal Y Limón "serves some of the best under-the-radar Mexican food in the central Seattle area at surprisingly affordable prices". In 2023, Harry Cheadle, Charlie Lahud-Zahner, included the business in Eater Seattle list of fourteen "mouth-watering" Mexican restaurants in the metropolitan area. They called the green ceviche "balanced and generously portioned" and said the business "receives shockingly little recognition considering the breadth and consistent quality of its menu".[9] The website's also included Sal Y Limón in a 2024 overview of the metropolitan area's "most underrated" restaurants.[10]
