Hearty portions on the carnitas tacos, Staff were friendly, I'm guessing family run. No frills atmosphere, but the food is authentic and delicious. read more

Hidden Gem! On the north side of Bijou as you head west, this little grill has been serving delicious food for many years. The place is spotless and the decor is cute. The staff is wonderfully friendly and helpful. I had visited deer over 10 years ago and remembered it being good, but it was not close to any of my normal haunts. I decided to bring my husband here today to try it and was pleasantly surprised, and reminded of why I liked it previously. My husband got a vegetarian burrito smothered in queso. I had a burrito bowl with Carne Asada , and all the toppings! Both were delicious! The salsa choices range from mild (pico de gallo or corn salsa) to HOT (red or spicy avocado), but my fave was the medium "green" which was moderately spicy and extremely well seasoned. The burrito tortillas were also fun to watch them prepare! read more

LOVE this place! I come here just about every Monday. All of the food is HOMEMADE!!! You seriously can't beat that. People go to Chipotle or Qdoba, meanwhile Azada is serving up 100% AUTHENTIC food! 10/10!!! read more

Great Prices, the chicken burrito was good, and Emily was way helpfu. nice family owned spot read more

Bad communication, overcharging for a burrito. Seems like a cheap knockoff of chipotle. Not original at all, Food is already prepared and doesn't look fresh. Not a welcoming atmosphere, looks a little dated. Don't expect any smiles. Meat is rubbery and cold. If you want Mexican food and an authentic experience this isn't the place. read more

Good service, very friendly and made me feel at home. As a Texan, I felt right at home even in the springs, with good food, ambiance, and decent prices. read more

Made to order, fresh gilled tortillas! TAKE MY MONEY! Although, I did think it was a little too expensive, haha read more

Azada Mexican Grill - a sign in the window - Mexican Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

Homemade tortillas made to order - need I say more?! Oh, ok, well the rest of their stuff is pretty good too. Huge burritos made any way you want - choice of rice, beans, meat and lots of add on sauces, veg, and cheese. Did I mention that the tortillas are the bomb?! You can get your burrito wrapped in an extra tortilla - do that! It tastes great and helps with structural integrity of your giant, squishy burrito. Tacos are on point too. read more

We were exploring downtown Colorado springs and decided to stop here for lunch. The place is a little off of main Street and it's a mom and pop shop. Similar to Chipotle style, you can customize any part of your meal. I got the Monday special which was the chicken burrito and my sister made a chicken salad bowl. Everything was really good and tasty, the portions was generous for the price and staff are super nice. The only thing I would critique is that their hot sauce and jalapenos was not spicy at all and wished they had a little more veggie options besides lettuce and picco de gallo For 5.50, my burrito was huge and it was a very good deal. You know what else made this burrito soecial? The tortilla wrap was freshly made right there in front of my eyes. It was cool to see how they had a ball of dough, put it in machine to flatten it out and baked it. The tortilla was not thick like most places and had a very good crunch but still soft at the same time. It was awesome! read more

Taco Bell has more spice. I ordered the Nachos w/out meat. I paid $24 out the door for nachos and cookies. I thought it was way overpriced. The refried beans are canned. As far as I could tell, the pico de gallo, shredded cheese and lettuce are the only fresh from scratch ingredients. I find it hard to believe that the tortilla chips are made from scratch. They lack the oily residue indicative of freshly fried. The restaurant doesn't offer jalapenos or peppers of any sort. So I'm not sure what the reviewer who refers to "salsas" is talking about. The service is Chipotle/Qdoba style. So I'm not sure what some of these other reviewers are talking about w/ respect to "menu changes". I won't go back. read more

We are traveling and ran across this restaurant using yelp! Thank you! It was amazing! The chicken was so fresh and flavorful and they make the tortillas in front of you. Not what you expect when you walk in but such a great place. They are very open to menu changes as well. Yummy!! read more

I am such a big fan of Azada. Honest, hardworking family that produces such consistent and delicious food. I love the options they have and they seriously knock it out of the park every time. It isn't cheap, but keeping this small business around is fully worth it. Bowls and burritos are the best! read more

Caveat: only had one breakfast burrito so not a representative sample. Service was good! Food was not very good, cold, and VERY EXPENSIVE. Basically a $5 gas station breakfast burrito and horchata for $17 (with a tip and tax). That is insane. Salsa picante is decent and the fresh tortilla was good. Might try again at night. When I'm drunk. And hungry. read more

I came here for lunch. I had the tacos asada and tacos Al Pastor. Both were very mild. You could hardly taste the pineapple flavor in the tacos Al Pastor. They have a few tables for dining in. Many high school students at lunch time from the nearby Palmer high school. Very inexpensive. read more

Stopped In with the family for a quick bite. The food was typical fare for a small/walk up/order at the counter place. Burritos, bowls, tacos, nachos, etc. food was good but not superb. Burritos were smothered with a cheese sauce rather than green or red Chile? Ok but I would prefer green Chile. Tacos Al Pastor were excellent. Hot sopapillas were also excellent. Staff friendly and decor clean but dated. Good overall experience for this kind of place read more

Expectations were high, given the reviews noted, but alas, no. These are not the burritos Cali-types are looking for...the force is not strong in these. The offering is with rice and beans and limited guac, and the tastes are as moderate as a sunset on Alderaan. While the offering is fairly large, it is mostly filled with rice and beans, with protein limited like water on Tatooine. In contrast, the actual shell rose above the contents, which should be no surprise as they seem to be made from scratch. For those who search for this type of sustenance - rice, beans, flavorful tortillas with minimum of protein - you may have found your Ahch-To. Location is downtown, with street parking, so if you go ensure your battle cruiser is ready for those ever so prevalent meter maids willing to ponce once the red alarms beam across the galaxy. read more

Azada is like a family-owned, hole-in-the-wall Chipotle. (Well, perhaps more like Qdoba because the guacamole doesn't cost extra!) You order at the counter and build your Mexican entrees. Hubs and I both had the chicken plates- which are enormous- and come with multiple scoops of rice, beans, and chicken. Then you have the salsa options, sour cream, cheese, guacamole, and lettuce. I did the pico and the medium salsa. The medium was SO GOOD. It had a really nice kick and seasoned the plate of food nicely. The plates also come with your choice of corn or flour tortillas- homemade, of course. Honestly, the portion is huge- I couldn't even finish and that's saying a lot. My toddler had a kids quesadilla on the homemade tortilla and it was delicious! (Quality control, I had to taste it!) Kids plates also come with beans and rice. So go out and support a locally-owned business and get your Mexican fix while doing it! read more

Very good. I don't eat pork, but the rojo (spicy pork) was fantastic!! Me and my partner are down in colo springs for Memorial Day, and we're definitely making this place a must visit whenever we come down here! Also, the tortillas are to die for, some of the best homemade tortillas I have eaten in my life. Friendly service and free samples make me want to give this place more than 5 stars, but alas, I can't. read more

Super friendly staff! Absolutely love that they flatten and cook the tortilla for the burritos to order! Very fresh and super flavorful.

Thanks Yelp for another great find. The service was amazing. The person at the counter answered all of our questions and was patient with us as we had never been here before. The fresh made tortilla was delicious! We also had the green chili pork and asada, both of which were fantastic! I would come back here just for the homemade sopaipillas. read more

Such a fan of the fresh to order tortillas! Appreciate the love and service that clearly goes into the food!

Yeah, this place rules. It's a tiny hole-in-the-wall downtown and it's some of the best food that I rarely hear people ever mention in town. You've seen this setup before. It will quickly remind you of Chipotle/Qdoba/etc but the flavor, customer service, and value of this place blows the socks off any of those fast food burrito joints. Plus it's family-run so everyone is actually happy and genuinely helpful! I really do recommend a burrito, as cliche as that might sound, because they make everything here from scratch. I mean, everything! They'll start by pressing a raw ball of masa into fresh tortilla and then they'll throw it on the plancha to give it a little color and warmth. You've already won my heart with this move. Typical toppings/accouterments as those other burrito joints, however, remember I said everything is homemade? Yeah, you'll notice it. They make their refried beans with Chorizo, so you'd be ridiculous not to load your burrito with this stuff. Ay, dios mio! I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life/fix up the rest of your burrito because you literally cannot go wrong from this point on. Go check this place out next time you're downtown and feeling some Mexican eats! read more

Homemade tortillas is all I needed to try this place. I've been here twice and both times the service was friendly, fast and the food is delicious. I like their carnitas burrito, but they have a lot of other options that I haven't tried. Also, I see they offer free soft drinks to Palmer students which is a great idea. read more

Azada Mexican Grill serves the greatest burritos in the Colorado Springs area. Perhaps Colorado entirely. Maybe the entire world. I was a frequent customer (multiple times a week) for the 5 years I lived in the Springs. I moved to Denver a year ago and have yet to find a suitable replacement. Sometimes, I still drive the hour down to the Springs just to get a burrito, and they always remember me. This place deserves 50 stars and here's why: 1. The tortillas: they're made in house--they press & cook the dough right in front of you-- and they are just unbeatable. I've never had a tortilla come close to the level of Azada tortillas 2. Their breakfast burritos: eggs, potatoes, the whole nine yards. I frequently ate these before playing rugby games and I believe they helped fuel me to glory. 3. Their guacamole: forget chipotle, forget illegal petes, forget qdoba. Azada's guacamole is delicious, perfectly chunky, and excellently flavored. 4. Their desserts: I've had their sopapillas and they are incredible. However, once I got a free churro (due to a promo) and I have not been able to replicate the extreme joy I experienced since. Absolutely unparalleled. 5. The people: I love all their employees. They're kind, wonderful people who are generous with their time and their burrito fillings. Azada is simply incredible. Words cannot fully express my love for this place. read more

I'm so sorry - I really wanted to love this place. The people were amazing and probably the best service I've had in a Mexican food restaurant. But unfortunately that's where it ended. First of all, we were the only customers in the place at 12:30 on a Saturday. That should have been a clue, right? The food was very similar to Chipotle / Qdoba - I'd even go farther to say it really lacked spice and flavor. I got a breakfast burrito, so maybe try something else if you're looking for spice. My daughter got a rice and bean bowl, which is legitimately boring anyway, but again there was zero flavor. The point that took me over the edge is we ordered the sopapillas (that were advertised everywhere in the restaurant!) and they were hard and not at all fresh. I would not believe they were made today! We were excited to check this place out but unfortunately it missed the mark for us. read more

Amazing amazing amazing fresh authentic mexican food. think chipotle but 100000x better and more flavorful. they make the tortilla right in front of you as you order and offer to let you sample anything if you wish! the food was sooo good and filling and the same price range if not cheaper then chipotle as well. this is a family owned family ran restaurant, please support them and local businesses!! read more

Azada Mexican Grill - Mexican Near Me - Colorado Springs, Colorado

We've eaten a lot of Mexican food in our lives and this restaurant rates among the best we have had. The fresh made-to-order tortillas are soft and flavorful, and there's something about the lean, juicy and flavorful barbacoa that had us return for more. The cilantro rice was fluffy and tasty. Guacamole was fresh, mostly if not all avocado (without fillers, as far as we could tell), and spiced just right. Service was was fast, friendly and accommodating. Glad we found this hidden gem on yelp. read more
