Visiting from Boston. Frozen drinks were delicious and only $9.00. Food was very good and portion sizes perfect. Service was outstanding. Great little find! read more

The restaurant is beautiful and spacious. Seems very clean and has ample seating. Service was good, but food was just ok. My kids enjoyed their tacos and the rice. My tamales platter were smothered in green chile, which was not my favorite. I would've much preferred the tamales without the chile on top. And the beans and rice also seemed a little dry. The tacos al carbon had decent flavor but wasn't good enough to want to order again. We enjoyed the space, but the food was lacking. I doubt that we would return. read more

El Jardin is very good. Most authentic Mexican I've had in the Denver area. Chip and salsa off the bat, salsa was amazing. Flavorful with decent heat but not overwhelming. Chips were fresh and crisp with a good amount of salt. I ordered the beef/chicken fajitas and the hot the spot for sure. Even after eating two bowls of chips (cuz why not?!?) I still managed to policy off most of my fajitas since they were so good. I'm from So CA and we have great Mexican food everywhere, El Jardin is on par with the best Mexican restaurants in my home area. We were seated quickly and our server took drinks while we reviewed the good sized menu. Drinks came, we ordered right away and had our food within 13-14 minutes. The place is actually huge. We walked in and thought the bar area and front seating section was decent but she took us towards the back where there was almost a whole other restaurant. Parking was easy and they have plenty since they have a front and back lot. Highly recommend! read more

By far my go to since I've lived here in Denver. Took me a while to write a review so this is long overdue. Located in Commerce City, this place is a staple within the community. It is always hopping especially on the weekend because the vibe is that good. Full bar with excellent menu choices for food. Wonderful staff and very efficient with the service. I will always recommend this place to anyone and everyone when they visit Denver. Enjoy! read more

We did find this restaurant on Yelp & due to the rating & comments we decided to check it out. We were delighted with our experience-it exceeded all expectations! Our server Tania was outstanding, providing professional, timely service, as well as a fun & kind attitude. As for the food-we have never had better Mexican food! I had the crispy chili rellenos with their award winning sauce & they were to die for! My husband had a chimichanga & a cup of their award winning green chili-he was immediately a fan! We highly recommend that this restaurant to anyone looking. For excellent Mexican cuisine! We just wish they had this restaurant in California! read more

I really wish you'd get some different takeout containers because the Styrofoam ones leak so today when I went in and I got my chimichanga and you put it into a plastic bag which I appreciated the container leaked out into the plastic bag so I'm losing some delicious part of my food into a plastic bag. Your food is delicious. Your hostesses and waitresses are wonderful. You are a fabulous restaurant for Mexican food, but please please please change your takeout containers so you don't end up having customers leaking their food into the plastic bag. read more

Ambiance - 5 very pretty and excellent music Pozole - 4 personal preference, the meat was chopped really small and I like chunks. I also wish there was more caldo. I wanted some salsa for the pozole and they were going to charge me extra, so I passed. Otherwise, reasonable pricing. Service - 5 super fast and attentive read more

El Jardin - Chili Rolenos and Stuffed Sopapilla. - Mexican Near Me - Commerce City, Colorado

Stopped into El Jardin looking for some good, not fancy, Mexican food. And we found it! Very friendly host greeted us and seated us immediately, even though the parking lot was full. I had the small combination of cheese enchilada, bean tostado, then requested a side of beans instead of the taco that normally comes with it. Husband had the Santa Fe Chicken Skillet -- who declared it should be illegal it was so good. Ate every bite of it. Definitely will be returning to try some of their other offerings. read more

Overall good Mexican food. Everything was cooked well with fairly good flavor. Green Chile was a little bland. Pork Carnitas tasted more like BBQ than Mexican style. It was good and tender but tasted more like it was from a BBQ restaurant. Sopapilla sundae was a great dessert. Some of the best sopapillas around. They could use better quality ice cream. Good service. read more

Not authentic at all. A long time ago they were better but still not nearly as good as La casa del rey. To me it's more like gringo Tex Mex. I judge Mexican restaurants by their beans and rice. If they can't do those right then the rest is probably not worth it. Sorry El Jardin fans read more

This is out of our way, but we make a trip to come here every so often. We love the ambiance of thelis place it is home and spacious doesn't feel like you are sitting right in top of the next table. Service is always great from when you walk in to the servers. The food let's just say I haven't had anything I haven't loved. One of my guests always gets a stuffed sopapilla with pulled pork which is smoked she loves it, my other guest goes for a chicken burrito he loves them so much sometimes he orders 2, I have had the pork carnitas burrito, the supreme burrito, and I have had my all-time favorite bacon breakfast burrito. The salsa and chips are always great I feel the chips are always fresh. Strawberry margaritas are a go to for me. We will be back time and time again as long as you keep up the great work. read more

I have to start by saying we used to absolutely love the food at El Jardin, it has been our favorite restaurant since moving to Colorado in 2020. We went for Taco Tuesday and were very surprised that the menu had changed, unfortunately not in a good way. Now the tacos on Taco Tuesday are tacos ala king! Soft corn tacos with either ground beef or pulled chicken smothered in sauce! The waitress said the plates were dangerously hot to touch, but they were not even warm to touch, neither were the tacos! We were also shocked that arriving around 5:40pm the restaurant was not busy at all! The service was great as always but the food is now only mediocre! We will try again but we definitely will not order the taco aka king! I just hope when we return the food is much better than this visit. read more

Brought the whole family for breakfast and it was great! Everyone enjoyed their meal, and we were shocked at the low price. Great food and a great atmosphere. The staff were great as well. I recommend it! read more

We have been back multiple times. Every experience has been stellar because this family enjoys what they do. They consistently serve freshly prepared food with generous portions, the servers are happy, and clearly they have tons of regulars. Every time we have been here, it is busy, even in the middle of the day on a weekday. It is out of the way for us, but definitely worth the drive. read more

Place looks nice and is incredibly clean for such a busy restaurant. Service was great. She was attentive and made sure our drinks were full, chips and salsa were always present. She took out orders and maybe 15 minutes later we had our food. I opted for the Burrito Supreme. It was good. The ground beef was seasoned well, I may ask them to substitute it next time for the asada instead. I've been spoiled by better burrito meats like carne asada, barbacoa, etc. My sister decided on the Chile Fries. They were great! Dad went with the Battered Chile Relleno. He loved it and said that El Jardin was his new favorite spot. I can't say the same since I've ventured out much further and have tried many places, but the good thing is that El Jardin is close to home, and tasty - which means we'll be back. read more

Today I had a discomfort on the part of the manager Maria of this restaurant, the very friendly waitress attended me, I stopped her less than a minute to ask her for sauce and ask her something and she called her and was scolding her just for standing for less than a minute, and then the manager passed by and looked at me very ugly that is not good and less from her because she is supposed to be the manager and the waiters must be kind and that she scolds her and the way she did it is super bad, fix that because that way no one will come to your restaurant, thank you read more

Yummy and tasteful! Parking lot available on site but it might get full. Friendly hosts and they sat our party of six quickly. We also went around 12PM on a Friday. I got a steak and fries. Steak was cooked to my liking and I thought was tasty! I got two sides and I chose fries for both. Fries were crispy and seasoned well! I'd never had a sopapilla till now so I was glad I got to try it hot and fresh! So light weight and fluffy! Drizzling honey on top was so yummy! I want to go back just for the sopapillas! read more

Friday at noon for lunch. Parking was easy to find. Business definitely picked up more while we were there. A very big restaurant, looked like plenty of seating! Clean and easy to navigate through the dining area. Noise level was very tolerable as far as we could all hear each other talking, despite the room being full. I ordered the battered chile relleno with hot green chili and a house margarita. The food came out in a very reasonable time and was piping hot! I couldn't tell much texture on the deep fried batter due to the amount of green chili, but I won't complain about that one bit! A very delicious meal and super friendly staff. I will definitely be coming back! (Pictures...next time. Pictures) read more

Always a good experience at El Jardin. The staff is friendly and the food is authentic. We love the soft chile relleno and chicken enchiladas! Just wish we lived closer so we could enjoy more frequently. And the salsa is fantastic! read more

Amazing food! Great service! Delicious margaritas. One of my favorite places to go to dinner.

Always a good time! Wait is never more than 15-20 minutes, service is quick, and food is delicious! All of your authentic Southwestern and Mexican staples at a reasonable price. Ambiance is nice with lots of room for seating large parties. Margaritas are inexpensive and creative! The Sopapillas are the best and a must have! read more

My daughter and I went there for dinner, as we have done so often. We were charged $3.25 for melted margarine disguised as green chile. Never Again... Food and service has always been amazing, and this wasn't a new request for the order. Unfortunately, this will no longer be our favorite restaurant, with NO intentions of ever returning again. read more

We went here on a Sunday morning for a later breakfast, Pablo's chicken enchiladas were delicious of course but what really stood out today was the amazing peach mojito!

Great Mexican food, service etc are all decent. It's worth the trip to Commerce City. Closed on Mondays...

It seems like a coo place not sure about the food but the drinks looked good. It was alright

This is my ultimate #1 favorite Mexican restaurant in Denver metro area. They are a very nice, fun staff that runs a gorgeous Mexican restaurant. The food is the best in the west here. Portion size is double to share family style. I ordered the Pina Colada with Pablo's enchiladas and that's what I get every time I come here. The fajitas were at least a pound deep with grilled bell pepper and onions. A side of guac and sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes with tortillas. Just delicious and hands down to Manuala out fabulous waitress for making this dinner mentionable and outstanding tonight. read more

Pretty basic Mexican food. Wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again but it's not bad.

Plenty of comfy seating. Customer service was great from being seated to throughout the meal. Food was yummy and well plated

food is great. one of the best in the area. service is a downside. the girls are great, the guy, not so much. Had to ask 3 times for water and ice tea refills. He picks up 4 glasses from the table, takes them somewhere out of sight to refill them. we were appalled to think, he might mix our glasses with other tables. why not bring fresh glasses and water or better yet, a pitcher of water on the table.. we order the queso dip, 5 people and enough chips for 2. never a refill on chips. we will come back for the food but will ask for the girl waiters. they are the best. read more

Great food, wonderful service! We've been coming here for years and have never posted a review until now. We love Lillian!!!

I haven't been for a while but this is one of my favorite places to go to. Food is awesome along with their wait staff. I don't drink so can't comment of drinks. They are a little pricey for someone like me on a budget so when we go it's a treat. read more
