The owner was very welcoming. I told him what I like and took his recommendation of what kind of torta. I can't remember which one it was. I also ordered an Al pastor taco, Barbacoa taco, and an horchata. Everything was delicious. I forgot to take a pic of the food. This restaurant is out of the way for me, but I play basketball once a week down the road, so I'll definitely be back. Thank you for the good service and the fresh food. read more

5 stars well deserved!! I believe it is family owned, not entirely sure but even so the workers were very kind. Atmosphere was very inviting and clean. The food was amazing, especially the desserts, the flan tasted creamy and soft, not too moist or dry. Such as the churros were freshly baked when received! read more

Fabulous! We ordered some fresh guacamole and chips, which came out fairly quickly. The chips were crazy fresh and hot and the guacamole was very tasty, but had absolutely no spice so we added some of the picante sauce. All three of us ordered Quesabirria tacos and they were amazing. The consommé that came with it is really tasty as well. Love this place. The owner came by a couple times to make sure all was well. I appreciate that!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is really small with an outdoor area along Hampden but it's too loud for my liking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Parking was tight but that only means good patronage!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

There is nothing better than the quesabirras here. Don't go to Starbucks next door. Go here.

Amazing Quesabirria!! Super flavorful consume and crispy tacos. Such friendly service from the owner and his wife that made us feel right at home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside restaurant is inviting and very clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were offered samples of the delicious drinks, everything was fresh and great. Will be returning and recommending. read more

La Reyna Azteca Tacos Y Tortas - Quesabirria tacos - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I wish I had better pictures because the pictures just don't do this justice. Very hole in the wall place; staff was nice and only had to wait about 10/15 minutes to get my torta. I got a custom one with brisket and lengua, and when I tell you that's the best torta I've ever had... the meat had a nice crispness on the outside but the lengua was soooooo melt in your mouth it was amazing. The jalapeños added a nice crunch and cut through some of the heaviness. Reasonably priced and would absolutely order this again. 10/10 recommend PLEASE come here. read more

Very good! The owner was SO nice and accommodating. I can't wait to come back and try more items.

I was recommended this restaurant by a friend. Not thinking twice about it since there's so many good Mexican restaurants around, I didn't end up stopping in until I was looking for something quick and close. I ordered their La Chiputos Torta with chipotle sauce and jalapeños and never looked back since! I've became a regular here and my classic order is still the Torta, but have tried their tacos, quesabirria since, all fantastic! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I've brought my friends and family here since and it's been a fan favorite all around.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This place has quickly became one of my favorite places to eat. read more

I must say, I haven't enjoyed Mexical food in Aurora as I did today. The food here is so authentic and delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Francisco was an awesome host. Muy delicioso! read more

We kept driving past this place and finally decided to give it a shot and boy were we glad we did! First, the customer service was incredible the owner Fransisco was extremely kind and helpful. Second, the food was top notch. Smother Carne asada burrito was incredible as well as the tacos taliban. The green chili was a perfect spice level and very flavorful. Third, THE FLAN. You have to try it! We are flan connoisseurs and that may very well be the best flan we have ever tried. Everything here is handmade from the fresca to the flan and you can tell it is made with intentionality and a love for GOOD food. We will be back. read more

Hands down, the best authentic Mexican food I've had in Colorado. I've lived here 20 years and my wife and I wanted tacos for our wedding so I've tried a ton of places. Burritos, tacos, tortas, sauces, all of it is 100% authentic. read more

I was working on my deep thoughts like Jack Handey when I saw Reyna Azteca's sign next door hyping tacos, but I was like no mames, I'm going to order a torta foo... cuz sometimes you need a torta over a flaca, *wink *wink Most 'ethnic' places in Cowarado know that most of 'you people' have a limited range when it comes to your preferences of meat: like always only ordering carne asada, or beef (de res vs de chivo) for birria, and only tacos or burritos. So, the chances you'll order a torta at a place specializing in tortas.... not a high chance fooo, so they market the tacos but don't be fooled, this place is all about the tortas and aqua frescas. Well, this japones mofo hit up Vassssteee(sp?), the chica working the front who is from Mexico City, and since this is her uncles spot, you know, her Tio, i ordered her favorite which is listed on the lower left side of the menu, the vaquera (cuz cowgirl) with added bacon cuz you know, it's bacon foo. Her tio, a dude who is already onto his 3rd spot cuz dude throws down, and I get why this spot is so highly rated, it's earned. So get your gordo/gorda culo on down to Reyna, a torteria, and try the messssssican version of a sandwich cuz Subway is not cutting it homie... also, you people love your sammiches, so this won't be a stretch (psssss....try the gringa). read more

Very casual but nice vibes. The place was next to a work site I was working at. I got Carne Asada tacos and carne Asada gordita. The place was a bit busy so I did wait a good 10-15 minutes for my food. Maybe try calling ahead if you're short on time. The parking lot was a bit small but I was able to find parking. The lady taking the order speaks English. They have little booths and tables with TVs. Once of the best Mexican places I've had food at. I definitely want to look for more! I have to try the rotates next time. read more

The tortas here are really good, buns are buttery and fluffy and the meat inside is tasty and plentiful. I also really enjoyed the tamarind Augua Fresca, it was sour and refreshing. The inside is also squeaky clean and the staff is really friendly. However, their tacos have some serious issues. While the Chorizo and Asada were delicious, the Al Pastor was an absolute travesty. The pieces of meat in the pastor tacos were not just re-heated but overwhelmingly burnt and black. The pastor meat was not scraped from a trompo, rather just diced and seasoned pork, really lame and not very authentic. The Lengua taco was similar, black and crispy. The last thing you would want in a lengua taco is to hear a loud crunch as you bite in. I would recommend coming in an trying a torta, they're better than average. But based on how the tacos were, the way they prepare/reheat their meat could make this a risky stop. read more

Love it here, it's family owned and their food feels like what you'd eat at someone's house (in a good way). Authentic and delicious. Great portions and the prices are fair. I love their quesabirria tacos, they are something to write home about! We also love getting the carne asada fries. Burritos here are super filling too! I'm obsessed with their Jamaica drink, I get it every time we eat here. Bonus that they carry this local ice cream company's creamy ice pops. I don't remember the business name off the top of my head but their flavors are bomb and it's a great treat, plus a "cool" way to support another local business. read more

I Always drive past this spot off Hampden and wanted to stop in to check it out. The lot is usually always pretty empty so parking is not a problem. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff was kind and the atmosphere gives you the vibes of authentic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered tacos and Tortas. The tacos were decent and the salsas were mild in flavor, but not bad. I must admit we were a bit disappointed overall and would not return for the tortas. Especially because the pricing is much higher for what we got than we anticipated. I do not see myself returning but wish them the best of luck! read more

Food is absolutely delicious, everything down to the chips and guac. But even better is the staff. So kind, so welcoming, and so joyous. 10/10 food & staff read more

I've gotten this place multiple times and it's always so good. Very fresh ingredients and really good flavor. The customer service is also impeccable. I don't know if he's the owner or what, but there is always a very sweet and super friendly man there greeting you and checking in you. I think prices are also super fair and very competitive compared to the places around this area. If your looking for classic Mexican comfort food, this is the place read more

The food is authentic 100% the best in the area. Very very authentic and great customer service.

I can see why La Reyna Azteca made it on the Yelp top 50 list! Tasty food options at a great price and helpful staff, what more could you ask for? I tried the Quesabirria Tacos with consommé and it was just what I needed after a long work day. My only knock on the tacos was that the meat felt dry even with the consommé! read more

The food here is authentic and completely fabulous! It's small, but the portions are fine, and the owner is as nice a guy as you could hope to meet. I'll no longer go anywhere else for my taco fix, although there are an incredible array of other freshly made-to-order options. I can't say enough good things about it. The only downsides: a wee bit on the high price side (but worth it), and [[HIGHLIGHT]]sometimes the music is so loud you can't hear yourself think.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you ask them to turn it down, they will![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's clean and comfortable[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and DON'T MISS THIS PLACE! read more

This is the worst restaurant. The food was wrong, they spill water over my mother, they didn't bring us the food of what we order. This whole experience was awful. No discount was given, no "how can we fix this" the manager just printed out receipt. This was horrible. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance awful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Highly recommend. Get a Torta! Generous serving sizes. Great mixture of flavors. Delicious. Filling. Authentic with added cocinero's touch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean facility and restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Stop reading and start eating! read more

Great food, friendly service!! We will be regulars here from now on! Their tacos are great.

Honestly the food was pretty bland, I got the birria tacos with consome and even the consome lacked flavor. The portions were good but the flavor was just not there. My partner got a torta and asked for no tomato, and for other things in the "build your own torta", but the order was not made as requested. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The store looked great though.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I've eaten at this place before but this time I took a friend with me so she could try it out as well, she ordered the quesobarrilas .and I had the carne asada fries with tripe and we both shared a bit off each other's food to try them out. Both were good as usual and she said that this place was her new go to location for authentic mexican and was glad I showed her the place as she had driven by it all the time and never gone in. The staff is kind and if I didn't know what a menu item was they would explain it to me, the food was affordable and come out in fairly large portions in addition to being delicious. If I had one thing to say about it that was bad, if that, was that theocratic can get a bit cramp during the lunch rush, otherwise an amazing place for a torta or other Mexican foods. read more

Missed the 11am deadline for breakfast burritos, so I ordered the Torta Suspiro de Monja (a balanced chorizo torta, egg, franks, fresh cheese in a well formed bread). All tortas include pinto beans, mayonnaise, tomato, onion, avocado, and a choice of chipotle or jalapeño. And I ordered a Taco Taliban (flour tortilla, marinated pork, melted cheese, grilled onions, and pineapple). Absolutely delicious food, and very friendly & helpful customer service. read more

La Reyna Azteca Tacos Y Tortas - Torta Suspiro de Monja y Taco Taliban - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Service is TEN Stars! Food, is ok. Denver is blessed with a HUGE list of mexican-inspired food. This part of town has an abundance. Right now, the best is a food truck in the parking lot at the Southwest corner of Hampden and Yosemite. But what the food cart is missing is this ray of happiness that runs the register at La Reyna Azteca. She is so helpful and enthusiastic about their food, you are convinced it will be great before you finish the order. The Talibán taco is a house specialty. It is nicely balanced and not too filling to be wrecked for trying others. It has a nice sweet, spicy balance and the flour tortilla is grilled lightly for added crunch. The Barbacoa and Pollo tacos are nice street taco three biters. Try em with their housemate green salsa. I was less impressed with the El Pastor and Carne Asada tacos. I found both to be shallow in flavor. Not inedible but just meh. Multiple reviews have gushed over the Carne Asada Fries. These aren't a true menu item but the kitchen will create a basket for you with enthusiasm. The enthusiasm is awesome! The fries with their carne asada, just ok. In full disclosure, I ate here without drugs on board. The pipeline of people that came in after us and just ordered the C.A. Fries were trailing the morcheba cloud. Maybe that's the secret ingredient missing from my experience. Oh but the service is spectacular!!!! read more

My husband and I tried for the first time and we were pleasantly surprised! Food was fantastic! Not a fancy place but go for the food, not the atmosphere. Only negative: you order at the counter which means no chips and salsa at your table and no refills on drinks. Still would recommend and we will go back. read more

We love La Reyna for a nice taco lunch. I am obsessed with their lengua tacos and would eat so many all the time if I could. Menu is easy to identify and the location serves great salsa at the table. Highly recommend La Reyna! read more

First off the food was fire. But the best part , was that they give you sauce bottles so you can use as much sauce as you want! Also, the cashier was super kind and friendly. Santi was the cashier name on the receipt. He even poured us water and brought it to us when he didn't have to! Great place read more
