    I did a take out order for a number 9 and a number 10. If you like smothered this is the place for you. There was so much sauce I didn't know what to do with it all felt more like a scavenger hunt finding my food. I love sauce so the fact that I thought there was to much sauce is a statement. As far as flavor goes all I could really taste was the sauce. The inside looked nice it was small but well laid out. Location is good considering it's on Colfax. Would I go back probably not considering all the options in the area. -Dip Dip Chick

    Service is wonderful they speak English and Spanish. They allow you to modify your plate to your liking (some plates are spicy). The ambiance of this space is homey good for families and the music isn't too loud. Will be back when in town

    Combo-Relleno, Tamale, Enchillada, and Tostada

    The litmus test for me when I first visit a Mexican restaurant is the huevos rancheros. My wife ordered a combination plate with a chili relleno, tamale, enchilada, and tostada. The huevos rancheros were quite good. The scrambled eggs were fluffy and the potatoes crispy. The beans were okay. My only issue was the green chili, as it was pretty average and had very little flavor much less spiciness. The tortillas that came with the dish were quite tasty. The red chili on my wife's plate was much tastier albeit on the salty side. The tamale was soft and the masa harina tasted fresh. The batter on the chili relleno was tough and would benefit from being updated. The enchilada was tasty. The service was on the abrupt side but passable. The prices were wallet friendly. The place is small but clean.

    The service was unbelievably awesome! We had the friendliest server. The food was fresh, delicious and piping hot. We got breakfast here. I got the Santa Fe Skillet with eggs over easy. Delicious. Green chile was amazing. My wife got the huevos with beans and potatoes which were equally delicious. The salsa they gave us to add some spicy were terrific too. Reasonably priced and plenty of parking. Authentic mexican food!

    That's the awesome green chili with extra pork. Don't forget the extra pork!

    Thank Hod I'm back in the land of Hatch Chili, or one that sells it. The Green chili is great! They had an option I'd never heard of, sweet or regular. The description on the sweet version was the pork was marinated in something like a teriyaki sauce. Ironic yes!

    Came here for a quick lunch. We had carne asada tacos, micheladas and a cheese quesadilla. The food was good and the service was excellent. Totally recommend this place if you are ever in Aurora.

    One of the best in the area. Red chilaquiles for breakfast is a must at this restaurant.

    This is my favorite local Mexican spot. I've been a patron for about 15 years…read more This time I treated visiting friends to lunch and, of course, they were not disappointed. 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.

They have a nice bar area with plenty of TV's if you needs a sports hang out that also has excellent food. Or sit in the dining area for a regular restaurant atmosphere. The one thing that does not matter where you sit is that you will get a ton of food at reasonable prices and who doesn't love that.

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.

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
