The chips & salsa but, specifically the cabbage salsa, are enjoyable staples. The tortilla soup is also a must have. Sometimes, I just grab the soup plus chips & salsa. I like the soup because it's hearty and full of fresh ingredients. This time we enjoyed tostadas, street tacos, & green chile stew along with the standard refried beans & Spanish rice. And we didn't forget the alcoholic libations, rounding it out with margaritas and Corona. There are no complaints here. The food is always on point. The restaurant itself is always clean, welcoming, & prepared for a good time. The staff are always friendly & attentive. I also enjoy the entertainment playing in the screens & the nights with the mariachi. They are available on the food delivery app, too.

This is our favorite Mexican restaurant. They make the best carne asada! The skirt flank steak is…read morewell marinated, tender, and full of flavor. It's served with guacamole, pico de gallo, beans, and rice. I'm not a big fan of beans, so I usually ask for extra rice instead. The carne asada has a wonderful grilled aroma and taste, and the portions are always generous--there's usually enough left over for a doggy bag. The staff is quick and very friendly, and the menu has plenty of great options to choose from.

We sampled multiple tequilas (and fell in love with Maestro) and had a great time catching up over dinner: quesabirrias, mole de pollo, carne asada, and the El Meson special (grilled steak, bacon-wrapped shrimp in traditional chile relleno with rice and beans). The servers didn't rush us, they checked in on us, and we had such a great time there. Can't wait for next year's conference!

The street taco plate was delicious and you can't go wrong with the carnitas. The Burrito smothered in green chile was also fantastic and the pickled onions and queso Fresca elevated some different notes. Right now, the Venalonzo margarita is at the top of my list, only to be topped by the house margarita at El Camino in Missoula, Montana. Weird I know, but if you know, you know.

I have been wanting to try this place and sad how much of a let down it was. Came in during lunch…read morefor a pick up order, fairly busy but not too long of a wait. For two people, ordered a set of 3 tacos (2x barbacoa and carnitas) and then another 3 tacos (asada, carnitas, and pastor), birria egg rolls, and a bean, cheese, and rice burrito. Not a big deal but they put all the tacos in one box and I was able to differentiate which 3 tacos that I ordered. This place is super stingy with salsa. They gave me 2 tiny containers for salsa and then when I asked for a couple more, the lady said she could only give me two more. :( Excited to try the food and started off great with a simple bean, cheese, and rice burrito but outside of that everything else was very meh. Not sure how but all the meats were so dry, I ordered braised/slow cooked meats (barbacoa and carnitas). Asada and pastor were okay as well. Everything lacked seasoning and the salsa didn't add much to the tacos either. Birria tacos were also dry and consommé needed salt to be added. Value was not bad at $37.64. Tacos were about $3-3.20 per

The prices went up drastically by 20% which is a shock, but then an additional cost of "Inflation Relief Fee" was added on our check as well. That's a bunch of horse manure.

The strawberry margaritas are always above average quality -- strong but smooth. Chips came out hot and crispy, and the salsa is terrific. Fresh with just the right amount of kick. We had the combo plate with an enchilada, chile relleno, and tostada, plus the Steak Ranchero with rice and beans. Both were hot, huge portions, and packed with flavor. The tortillas were steamed and fresh. Service was fast and friendly. Consistent quality every time I come here. Highly recommend.

The whole team pitched in to service tables, so our bellies stayed full and our cups were never empty. They started us off with chips and salsa. It tasted like the Mexican food I know (from SoCal). I ordered two enchiladas which came with rice, beans, and coleslaw. The enchiladas were okay, but I could taste oil. My kiddos ordered Tacos Al Carbon combo plate and a loaded wet burrito. They enjoyed their food. Parking was easy as they have a parking lot and I believe it may be shared with the hotel behind it. I'd visit again when in the area, but I'd order a different meal.

Unfortunately, the customer service was disappointing. We were told our total was $32, but when I paid with a card, the final charge came to $34.93. When I asked why the amount was different, I was told it was because I paid with a card. I understand that taxes and fees may apply, but customers should be told the full amount before being charged. What bothered me the most was the attitude. When I politely asked for clarification, the person cooking responded in a rude and arrogant way, saying, "You know that in the United States you have to pay sales tax." I wasn't questioning whether sales tax exists, I was simply asking why the amount I was quoted was different from the amount I was charged. I also noticed that my receipt showed a Denver sales tax rate of 9.15%, even though the food truck was located in Aurora on Hampden, which added to the confusion. The food is excellent, but the customer service and lack of clear communication left a negative impression. I would return for the food, but I hope they work on treating customers with more respect and explaining charges more clearly.
