We have given this place two tries now because it's close to us. Unfortunately it just isn't good. We haven't eaten there so maybe that is why? We have only gotten to go food. The meat in the hard tacos is not good! Everything else is just subpar at best. We want to like it but just can't get on board. read more

I love this place, everytime I go everything is always good the food, the service, my favorite is the ceviche

Stopped in for lunch because I had some business in the area: understated and THE BEST. Delicious salsa, tamales, green chili and guacamole. Refreshing atmosphere. Love the pretty options for pastries and ice cream - but I had to pass. Will definitely be back asap. Thank you! read more

Great little Taqueria a few minutes walking distance from my place. I stopped by about 2 this afternoon to get a quick burrito for take away. This place has a small parking lot -- so when it fills up- getting in and out right to Colfax can be a little tricky. Also- careful where you park if you decide to risk parking down the street in front of someone's house (especially on the weekends). I do prefer to dine-in at Los Mesones. Great service. Good menu selection. I got a simple steak burrito for take away today. I will have to complain/ state and/ or question why my take away food never lives up to the dine-in quality. My good-sized Carne Asada Burrito didn't have too much meat- and most of it was very tough and gristly. Not good as I have had nothing but very enjoyable experiences when I have been there for the dine-in. They do have a big pastry case although I don't have a sweet tooth- I just might try some of their pastries sometime soon just to know whats up. SO- all in all - check this place out-- but make sure to dine in and bring your lucky parking charm too! read more

Los Mesones Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I ordered food and got everything but the Torta and Chile Relleno. The meat in the tacos were awfully super chewy and tasteless the lime I was given was completely dry that I didn't get any juice out of it. I called and they wanted me to go pick up the items that they missed in my order. I won't ever order here again the food is super bland. read more

Yum! Great Mexican food just across the street from Seedstock. We came last night for dinner and everything was great. Our waitress was so nice and helped us pick out some of her favorites from the menu, which is huge. They proved a basket of fantastic complementary chips with amazing spicy salsa. I went with shrimp fajitas which were pretty good, but the sides were the best part. Fresh guacamole, pico de gallo, shredded cheese, great rice and refried beans. My boyfriend chose chicken flautas which were also amazing. Plus the portions are huge! Next time we'll have to get something from their bakery, but we were totally out of room last night. read more

ordered caldo de res today 01/08/2024. it was delicious!! Authentic flavors, just like my mom used to make it! lots of meat and vegetables. I placed a to-go order and it was ready super fast, food was hot and the people who gave it to me were super nice and smiley. I will definitely go back to try more items on their menu!! read more

Had a wonderful meal here on the patio. Very friendly service, everything was priced right- very reasonable. I am always on the search for the best breakfast burrito and this one has made the very top rankings just wow! Perfect size and fresh tortillas, I also had an adobada taco that was wonderful. read more

Los Mesones Restaurant - Breakfast burrito with a adobada taco! - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Amazing food run by the nicest people. Phenomenal tacos and the birria is amazing. Best Mexican food around Sloan's lake by far!

Authentic as it comes. I come from Chicagoland which has a more 'sloppy' style of Hispanic food, but with a care for the ingredients as well. This has been the closest experience to that I've found in Colorado. Have had tacos, burritos, enchiladas.. all incredibly tasty and filling for a very reasonable price read more

The food was good and the delivery was on time. Wish I had an option to pick up my order.

OK. I plan to return. We ordered 3 tacos to go so we could drink at Seedstock Brewery. They were tasty. The staff was friendly. It is slow as others have said. P.S. Their legal business name is El Meson de Villa.You need that if you want to look up the inspection reports. read more

This review is for take out only. Don't let the location or appearance of the building deter you. This place has some seriously tasty breakfast burritos. The bakery display also contains delicious cookies of which I have sampled many. All of the food is super well priced you won't be disappointed. read more

This was stop #2 on the UYE West Side Taco Tour organized by Kate G. last weekend. This restaurant had my favorite tacos. I had the albanil (potato and jalapeno), and the carne asada tacos. They were on the small side, but at $1.25 a taco, I am fine with that. I found the meat to be well-seasoned, flavorful, and not overcooked. The trio of salsas that they served with the tacos were all quite tasty and ranged from medium hot to hot. They also provided some tortilla chips (a tad stale) and salsa (not bad) for free with the tacos. There is a note in the menu that if you are only ordering one taco, that you do not get the free chips. Although I did not try the desserts, this place had some nice looking items in the display case. These were some of the best tacos I have had in months and I would gladly come here again. read more

if you want a great authentic taco for cheap, this is a great place. Good food, good service and very Mexican vibe. THey have beer, tacos and booze. It is a great dive mexican bar, dont go here expecting the Ritz. Its good food, done cheap. Its pretty small inside but good for small groups. I recommend the Tacos. read more

This building carried a bad memory for me as Winchell's Donuts. I was 19 years old, my first and only blind date. Never meet someone you've just conversed with over the phone no matter how cute they sound. Well, that memory quickly faded when I walked into LM Taqueria's quaint dining area with the cute small baked good display that held some tasty looking items and I knew Kate G had once again steered me in the right direction! These guys make great tacos! Thanks Kate! Veintetres. read more

Los Mesones Restaurant - Albanil, al pastor, and adobada tastiness! - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Los Mesones and I met on stop #2 of a recent taco tour I partook in. The tacos here were not only extremely reasonable ($1.25 a taco), they were also pretty tasty! While the filling of the taco themselves were not super full (compared to other taco establishments we visited on the taco tour), their flavor profile and perfectly cooked meats made up for not being overfilled. Sadly, I only got to experience two tacos at this place (I was "trying" to pace myself for the next place). We split the barbacoa taco and some taco that had beef, potato, and jalepeno inside it. The barbacoa was really nice here, although I would have liked just a little bit more meat inside. It was cooked how I would like it and was seasoned to my liking. The beef, potato, and jalepeno taco was a nice change-up and was also really tasty. Also, Los Mesones has a really nice variety of baked goods and pastries that they make! They not only looked really appetizing, but stuck with me long enough that later that evening, I was wishing I would have bought some to satisfy my craving! If you happen to find yourself on Colfax or in the area and are craving some good, cheap tacos, definitely don't hesitate to check this place out! read more

First time eating at the place on West Colfax here in the Mile High City. Was pleasantly surprised. Great service. Pretty good food. My friend and I both ordered enchiladas. Very good meal. The beans and rice were on point as well. My only "complaint", we asked for them to be made hot but we didn't taste any heat, pretty sure they used mild green chili. It's all good though. The place was solid. Will definitely return. read more

Seriously bomb breakfast burritos, $4 for meat, $2 without meat. I like how they use the stringy hashbrowns instead of big potato chunks. Green chile is fire. Monster size, held me off till happy hour. I will be back read more

Love this little gem on Colfax! Homemade everything, very authentic Mexican food with a super sweet staff. The green chili is amazing. Whatever you order, if it doesn't come with green chili, order it as a side for sure! read more

Price is right but stalest taco shells I ever tasted. Meats were low quality. They must have prepped for the yelpers that praised this place. read more

Good food, waitress was friendly and service was fast. We ordered the smothered burrito and the carne asada.

Really nice hole in the wall authentic Mexican food. Decently priced and tasty. I like that they have parking on the side of the building where you can watch your car. I highly recommend the marinated pork!! So good. read more

Very friendly service. Great birria. A bit spicy but good. Very attentive server. Even the owner came out and talked with us for a bit. Great place in Denver. read more

This review is only for the take out breakfast burritos. Service was great and the breakfast burritos were solid. We ordered the hot and yes they were! Santiagos sill has my favorite breakfast burrito but these did not disappoint and I would order them again. read more

Had a breakfast burrito here this weekend - bacon, egg, potato and cheese - hold anything spicy as I am a wimp! I loved walking into this no frills, authentic spot. The pastry case was packed top to bottom with colorful cookies and other delights such as 50 cent pineapple and banana empanadas. It would have been rude not to sample a few. We got 4 large breakfast burritos, 2 empanadas, a handful of cookies and a few bottled cokes all for $20. Take out was quick and the owners were friendly and welcoming. read more

Such amazing food, and very nice staff. I had a coke, sopa de camarones (shrimp soup), chips, and salsa, all for $13! Can't beat it ... very spicy though (which I love), so watch out, Minnesotans! read more

Tried this spot last minute craving tacos. Tried the pastor, barbacoa, asada, and quesodilla....pastor and barbacoa were the better of the bunch...asada was very fatty and tough....they have 3 different salsas for the tacos which was nice. Micheladas were pretty decent too....Took a slice of coconut cake home. Overall pretty decent I guess. read more

The food here is ok. I don't like chicken in this type of restaurant. I had a take out order and they knowingly messed it up didn't tell me and gave me a crummy casidia to make up for the fact that I didn't get what I ordered. I had already sat around for 25 mins waiting read more

I reposted my review below because I originally posted it under the incorrect business listing, but I'll update while I'm at it. We love Los Mesones! We never did end up getting any of the houses we kept trying to buy nearby, yet we still come here quite a bit for tacos and beers. I love their fresh chips and on our last visit, we were brought not only a bowl of chunky cilantro-heavy salsa for our chips, but also three new bowls of different salsas (similar to Los Carboncitos): a spicy red, mild green and super hot creamy coral pink. I've grown very fond of their al pastor, al carbon and carne asada soft tacos. We usually come here and order 7 or 8 tacos between us and a couple of beers (love that they have bottled Modelo over canned, yay) and get out for well under $20 before tip. My only gripe is that I wish they stayed open later on the weekends! We've come by at or right before 9pm only to be bummed that they are already closed or about to. But everyone I've encountered that works here has been incredibly friendly and I feel like a bit of a neighborhood regular in spite of not officially being one. read more

Definitely a fan - don't be fooled by the sign saying they are just a Panaderia (bread place - although they do sell many fresh breads). They also have a full menu, and it is in English. We went last night and were pleasantly surprised with the food! We had the tacos (various kinds) and the Enchiladas Los Mesones, which were very tasty. They came with choice of shredded meat or cheese, and inside they also had some soft poblano peppers with the chicken I had - nice touch! The chili verde sauce was vegetarian and homemade yummy. Beans and rice also very good. Service not fantastic, but if you go up to the register, which is about 5 feet away from any table it's so small, you can ask for whatever you want. They also sell the pint-size Mexican cokes which are a great size to share. Chips are nothing to rave about, but the salsa was quite good. And to boot, the cook is a Mexican woman, which my Mexican-boyfriend tells me is a "great sign for some authentic home cooking!" Yum - we will be back! Oh, and be brave and ignore the bullet-hole in the front window...it's worth the stop! ;-) And staff seems to speak English, as well as Spanish of course. read more
