New Bellingham restaurant announces surprise opening, with ‘eclectic’ margaritas and tacos
Bellingham’s newest restaurant has now announced its grand opening, and it’s sooner than you think.
Red Star Taco, a Mexican restaurant with locations in Seattle and Tacoma, is opening its Bellingham location at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The opening was announced on an Instagram post around 11 a.m. Tuesday.
The restaurant is known for “eclectic tacos, frozen margaritas and high-quality tequila in an upbeat setting with late-night hours,” according to the restaurant’s website.
Red Star Taco first confirmed their new Bellingham location back in March, when the owners said they hoped to open June 2024.
The menu includes blackberry jalapeno margaritas, cocktails, beer and wine choices, nachos, tortas, burritos and a long list of tacos such as siracha honey tofu, tequila lime chicken, carnitas, buffalo chicken, agave shrimp and elote, Philly cheese steak, sweet potato and black bean, breakfast and seasonal tacos.
Red Star Taco will be open from 4 p.m. to midnight daily at 1327 N State St., the previous location of Jack’s BBQ, across the street from Schweinhaus Biergarten and Aslan Depot.
