Been going to this place for tacos & Margs for a bit now. Great food, along with a ton of options for great cocktails. Their salsa is great that they serve w/ their chips. The service is a little slow sometimes, but overall, a great inexpensive places for tacos & drinks.

I would give zero stars if possible. We used to love this place because the food was delicious and the service was great! Apparently they went under new management. My friend and I ordered some sopes today, and the meat was raw. We got sopes al pastor and chorizo. We couldn't even finish the food. I showed my friend and she gagged. My friend was embarrassed to bring it up, but we told our waitress. They offered a $3 discount when it was a bill over $30 for raw food. NEVER coming back. Incredibly disappointed and grossed out.

We sat out on the patio on a sunny day and had a great margarita and delicious Mexican food. Our server went out of his way to accommodate our requests and was very pleasant like he was really happy we were there. Great relaxing experience and how wonderful to enjoy this so much on our first adventure out of the house!

I just recently discovered this incredible restaurant. I have only been a couple of times, but so far it has not disappointed. I cannot emphasize enough how delicious the tacos are. I can't wait to try more of the menu, which may be difficult since the tacos are probably the best I've ever had. The service is great, the prices are reasonable, and the food I've tried has all been incredible. I am torn between wanting to keep this place all to myself, and recommending it to everyone I know.

Great locally owned Mexican spot. Large menu. Loved the namesake molcajete dish, tough to finish by myself! The servings are very good for the price. The beer on tap is always cold and fresh and the customer service has been exceptional. A fine place to grab margaritas on the patio in the summer. Family friendly.

Very tasty food. I can’t not order the molcajete - it’s is huge and just under $20. It provides me with at least three meals so it’s a great deal. We had an order of fried ice cream and it is massive. Too big for even 4 people.

Green Chile chimichanga with pork is awesome and the chicken nuggets and fries on the kids menu are really good too. I can't wait to sample more from the enormous menu, but it will difficult to resist the call of the chimi!

Love the atmosphere, not alot going on in the morning, they just started with their promotion of opening early in the morning. Great place to Dine-In people are amazing, music very soothing an relaxing like been in the Ranch from Mexico lol. Now the food let me tell to die for, I got the breakfast Chorizo burrito, smothered as well. Every bite was perfect the Egg Well Cooked, an the Chorizo WOW, also the Green Chile pure Deliciousness. Highly recommend these place I would give 10 STARS 💥💥💥

Great little Mexican place! The server was super friendly and very welcoming to start with. The atmosphere was nice too, very colorful and bright. They have an extensive menu (12 types of enchiladas!) so it took a little longer to decide what to get. I got the Tacos Dorado, sort of a deep fried taco with beans, rice and a red salsa. My gf got the lunch special with a chicken enchilada and a regular taco with beans and rice. Everything was fresh and hot and came out very quickly. Delicious and we will be back. Almost forgot, they brought out chips and salsa and a nice bean dip. It needed a little salt but no big deal. The only downside was that it's a little more pricey than we normally pay but it was well worth it. We will certainly be back.

You would think Cinco d Mayo would be the best showing from a mexican restaurant. I live literally right next door and ordered a chimichangas. After speaking with the order taker on phone I speci8stayed I sid not want a soggy chimi.....to my chagrine smothered with some type of sauce. Very disappointing, not to mention they charged my card for the incorrect amount. Not to mention the exorbitant amount of cilantro in the guacamole, supposed to be more avocado than any other ingredient. Sad that can't get good real food at neighborhood restaurant 😥😱😭

Breakfast is amazing. We had the kids meals with eggs, pancakes, and sausage. Also hash browns were fresh like home made potatoes. I had the breakfast burrito smothered with green chile. The spice was perfect with the ratio of hash brown and eggs in the burrito and the plate was hot. The waitress was timely and courteous and the restaurant is clean and inviting.

An awesome restaurant and so far my favorite Mexican Restaurant in the Denver area. The staff is amazing and extremely helpful and flexible. This place is extremely accommodating. Typically letting you substitute or modify any dish as you see fit as long as you ask. If you are looking for some great Mexican cuisine and great service stop by and try this place out.

Huge menu with many options! Anything you're craving Mexican-style. Tacos, burritos, seafood platters, tasty appetizers, vegetarian choices, tamales, chicken tortilla soup, full bar - including desert alcoholic drinks. We came for breakfast. Salsas were great. Definitely will return for their dinner menu. I've never seen a place with horchata ice coffee, I'm hooked! Great service, too.

Fajitas were delicious- especially considering we came in towards the end of the night. But was disappointed to get there and realize they don’t serve alcohol/margaritas. Chips and salsa were complimentary but very average. Probably won’t return until they’re able to serve margaritas.

Decent effort for distancing. You could easily do so much better. Crowd control was very good and stations for sanitizer and washing were great. The people walking around wiping down railings were on their phones and paying no attention to doing a good job. Also the displays with glass were as usual filled with kids fingerprints. Those areas should be wiped at least once an hour. Have a zero cell phone policy for staff to make the experience and safety better. Also about 1/3 of what was open had no animals present.

The most boring Taco Tuesday I have ever been to drinks 5.5 out of 10 tacos 6.5 out if 10. Come here and purchase their hot sauce to go and take it to a real taco joint.

The inside is very colorful and the upbeat Spanish music adds to the atmosphere. The waitress, Karen, was so nice and attentive. My friend ordered a ground beef quesadilla, but received a shredded chicken quesadilla. He didn't say anything, but Karen noticed and immediately got him the ground beef quesadilla from the kitchen. The mole on my enchiladas was a little sweet for my taste but the green and red sauce were delicious and the plate is huge! The real star of the show was the chilaquiles. The sauce had really good flavor and was great with the egg and beans and rice.

Hope I don’t get sick 😷 -NEVER AGAIN ! I regret paying over 60$$ in tonight’s DINNER ! quality is horrible ! And so is the service! Low Quality 👩‍🍳 Gross taste & WE STILL LEFT A 10$ tip 😩😩
