Great service for an authentic Mexican food experience. The owner/chef was happy to seat meat 10 minutes before they closed at 2:30. Great recommendations with explanations of the unique Mexican food they serve. So happy I made the walk up the hill!
Great experience here. Brought our 2 year old, from the outside you see the two sugar skulls on the doors and think you are going to walk into a heavily Hispanic decorated spot. Not really, looked my like a quick serve dinner and honestly, I loved that about it.The food: so we ordered the queso to start. Most people have ideas of what queso is going to be. This was not that, and man at first that bummed me out. Then I tasted it, a mixture of onions, peppers, chicarones on top of a small amount of melt cheese in a skillet. It was absolutely delicious with the right amount of kick for someone who doesn't handle spice well.As for our main dishes, they were kind enough to swap the protein in our daughter's quesadilla as in the menu it's only listed to come with carne asada so we were very appreciative. My wife got the 'house tacos'. My apologies I don't know how to spell it, but it was amazing. Great flavors, I really loved the smoky bit the chipotle peppers added and I can see why these are the most popular. As for me I got the al pastor tacos. The marinade they used was great but the real stand out and item that pushed these tacos over the edge was the jalapeno salsa they gave me. House made, with both raw and pickled jalapenos. The acidity against the sweetness of both the pork and pineapple and added heat was excellent.My only critique on the tacos is how they eat. And this isn't a knock for me as I don't care but more of a heads up to others. They lay the tortillas in a way where they can be a bit messy. Again I don't care, let's ride the lightning but for people who do it can be a lot.Definitely going back, both servers that circle the tables were very friendly and inviting.
Authentic Mexican tacos and burritos with a gourmet twist. Creative and tasty menu in an unassuming location in Golden. When friends ask for some good tacos I take them here. Delicious, Mucho Gusto! Good beverage and tequila selections as well and very heart breakfast options. Family run business where the Owners are very friendly and appreciative of their customers. Wonderful neighborhood restaurant.
Insanely good tacos (I got the pollo canalla and steak ranchero) and super fast service. Nice patio. Already planning a return visit to try their margs and other tacos!
We ate here on a whim on our way back down from the mountains. The food was AMAZING. The menu is small but they do everything very well. I love spicy food and the heat on everything was just right: hot enough to make me sweat but not so much that you couldn’t taste anything else.We will absolutely eat here again.
Food was great, and staff was very friendly. They serve gluten free wagon wheel chips instead of tortilla chips. I enjoyed lots of poblano peppers in everything they serve. A little overpriced. The place is definitely a hidden gem. The only complaint was that the place is so small and has one barroom. Staff member was brushing teeth and occupied for a very long time. My food got cold while waiting.
One of my favorite restaurants. Excellent food. I don't think I've had a bad meal here and I've been going since they opened. Drinks are great as well. Margaritas are delicious and the horchata is fantastic (if you're not in the mood for booze). The owner cares about his food and if you talk to him about it, you'll soon learn that he is passionate. Great place. Highly recommended.
Great people and great food. I had the Barbacoa tacos and my friend got the steak. The meat was cooked perfectly and they were overall great, especially for the price. The food came out like 5 minutes after ordering. The owner came out to check on everything which I appreciated.
This place was delicious!! The tacos and margaritas were fantastic (the potato & cheese taco was a big hit for our group). The owner was very friendly and offered us great advice on which tacos and margaritas to choose but I don’t think you can go wrong with anything you order there! You can tell they take great pride in their menu/ food.
Picked up a few hand held burritos before heading up the summit to go skiing, amazing flavor with every bite. One of the best steak burritos I’ve ever had. A must go if you want great authentic burritos.
