After tattoos at All Sacred, I popped into Salsa's for lunch & was happy I did! Joey met me here & parking was confusing but there are a few spots behind the building, but it could get tricky on a busy night. The place looks worn in & divey, much to be expected for a family-owned Mexican spot that's been a staple of Wheat Ridge for decades! I felt at home & knew the food would be tasty... our server was sweet & has worked there for 18 years! The complimentary chips & salsa were delicious- homemade & not too salty, and the salsa was so fresh with cilantro, chunks of onion & tomato! If you like spicy, ask for their spicy salsa- it's soooo good, very habanero & chile de arbol flavored but not over-the-top hot! Yummy. They have a lunch special where you can make a combination plate for $13.95 for 3 items, and I chose 2 enchiladas & 1 smothered beef:bean burrito. The enchiladas were big & super stuffed, and the chicken was delicious! The burrito smothered in green chile was tasty too. Joey got 3 crunchy beef tacos which were super tasty- homemade crunchy shells & good beef that wasn't greasy, topped with lettuce tomato & cheese. The lacking star is for the meh margaritas... the sour mix tasted like Gatorade! Weird.. I expected way better given that everything else is freshly made in house. But the mason jar & tajin rim were great! I'd come back to Salsa's for a bite to eat next time I'm in the area! read more

Menudo here is . Always good when I go, the service was good and I found out buttered toast goes well with menudo.

Used to come in here at least every week.made the mistake of telling the new Manager about a waitress who was very rude more than once. That was a few months ago. Now we get ignored And really don't care for that Food is so good . Too bad we will be looking for another restaurant. Won't be going back. read more

I like it here. Good menu variety, salsa and chips are yummy. Their green chili is yummy, and they will accommodate whatever your requests are. Service is friendly and fast. The restaurant is pretty cute inside too. Good value and good food. read more

They used to be okay. they now suck! dry cold tiny portions and bitchy people. Never was great, but worse now. GOING OUT OF BUSINESS?? Wheat ridge is not business friendly and they are not consumer friendly. Bad combination. I would like some good restaurants to move into the area but it does not seem to likely. read more

Everyone at Salsa's go out of there way to be polite, efficient and friendly Allie and another young lady served a friend and I tonight, sharing kind consideration and a smile The nicest ladies, amazing food, comfortable seating and attractive decor It doesn't get better, than that ! Thank you Allie and staff Mike and Rob Wheatridge read more

This is a NoGo. I had lunch here today and the service was beyond poor. I had to ask for chips and salsa and then wait 10 minutes while others sat after us received theirs. I ordered huevos and had to ask fort he accompanying tortillas. The waiter put the tortillas in the heater and 15 minutes later you could smell them burning throughout the store. By that time I was finished with my meal anyway. This pal was good a few years ago but has gone to hell. read more

Food was awesome! Staff is super sweet, friendly, accommodating and kind. This place should have WAYYY higher reviews! Authentic and delicious! read more

I've known of this place for such a long time, but just finally stopped in today and so glad I did. I had the biggest craving for soup. They have a great looking menu but I ended up with a michelada and menudo. Although I prefer Pasole, I took a gander on the menudo, and it was perfect. My friend got the shrimp soup and that was delicious as well. I came with a hangover but left with smiles. I'll definitely be back! read more

It's been 5 months since my last review. My concerns were primarily around service. I've been to Salsas 4-6 times and I think they are back to their super nice, eager to accommodate treat their customers like family atmosphere. Theyay not be able to accommodate every request but they will ask. read more

The service worker Brittany was absolutely amazing she gave great conversation and added a lot to the experience. The food was great and they have great service when it comes to bringing and taking dishes as well as drinks. Cute designs on the tables and booths create a great atmosphere that makes you want to stay in the establishment for drinks and appetizers. read more

Food was good, ordered a poblano burrito and got poor man steak. We kept it. The bloody Mary's were ok, needed a Tecate to Dr. them up. Brunch for two was $74. Gonna try for lunch since they have a deal to taste more dishes cause the combination was terrific. . read more

Delicious food. So good. We're recommended by a guy who we just stumbled upon and told us we had to get the smothered burritos. So we did. Our waiter wasn't great but he was busy so it's fine. Great food and great margaritas. Price point is good and way worth it. Perfect place for families or just a couple getting dinner. 10/10 will be back if we're near denver. read more

We decided to go to Salsas based on the location and the above average reviews. The hostess was welcoming and we were seated quickly. Our server, Jessica, was attentive and hard working. She didn't stop moving the whole time we were there because she was paying attention to us, her other customers, cleaning and working the register. The food was good tasting and hot. Even my picky eating 12 year old daughter liked her cheese enchilada. I docked one star because the front door accessibility needs help. The handicap spot is conveniently located right in front of the door but the edge of the concrete into the restaurant was about two inches high so I had to roll backward with my wheelchair with my wife helping push up onto sidewalk. read more

Sam at least that is the name they gave me, she has long hair with terrible eyebrows , if you do decide to spend your money here avoid her section. We were sat in the corner of the restaurant waited for 30 minutes, I got up to find a waitress. I asked Sam for help, she snapped at me saying she's really busy over there, meaning serving other people. When she finally came to our table, she said she's really busy. Implying too busy to serve other tables (making us feel uncomfortable and unwanted) I asked if we should go somewhere else because she seems too busy to be bothered to help other customers. She said, we can go if we would like, the people I was with were on their lunch break, they didn't have time to waste(as we waited there for 30 min prior to me getting her), we stood and ate. During our time there after that embarrassing interaction on her behalf, not only is Sam rude, and ill mannered the whole three times she came to our table. She would reach in front of me and interrupt our conversations never once was she apologetic for her inappropriate behavior. I also asked her for a rollup she acted like she did not know what that was, so I asked for silverware as I believe that's part of her job and obviously I didn't have any to eat. Sam grew more bothered by the fact I was asking for utensils to eat the meal we were paying for. Sam, lacks hospitality skills, and social cues, she should not be in the service industry. It was a birthday lunch for me and now my stomach hurts.... Gross If you do decide to go there, please avoid Sam's section you may leave with food poisoning and wasting your money that clearly isn't needed. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. read more

My favorite sit down for brunch I could eat there green chili and huevos rancheros everyday the used to do really good deal on it but I'll still pay the higher price. The dining room has a really cool Mexican themed. This family restaurant is great for groups and families brunch and dinner. The food is always quick read more

My husband and I went there yesterday they advertise vegetarian options. Great! I asked for a vegetarian bean burrito got sick last night called this morning. They have lard in their beans. They do offer whole beans, without lard, but that's not what was served to me. when I told her on the phone I'd ask for a vegetarian burrito and asked if they had lard in their beans she said yes that I should've asked if there was lard in their beans. No,! because I asked for a vegetarian burrito!! So disappointed. And they first brought out a burrito and it had chicken! Luckily I noticed before I took a bite. read more

Salsa's Mexican Restaurant - All delicious and excellent service, the manager Jose is very nice - Mexican Near Me - Wheat Ridge, Colorado

this restaurant is the worst Mexican restaurant I have ever eaten at. I would never suggest this restaurant to anyone. 1. Bad service, kept us waiting for a long time. 2. hardly any English speaking workers. 3. The Ice tea tasted moldy 4. Not bringing all of our meal forgot some of it. Will never suggest this place or ever eat here again. Got no tip. read more

A bit better than A-Ok, but I am not a "fan". So, 3 stars it is. I would definitely return as I enjoyed my lunch. It is somewhat deceptive as the interior is much more inviting than the exterior. I was pleasantly surprised by the tacky Mexican decor. They really should spruce up the exterior and repair the entryway. + Burrito Chicharron deluxe was tasty and a fair deal at $6.25. Typical Colorado green chili. The chicharrones are meaty and crunchy. + Mexican music which I thoroughly enjoyed. Uplifting beat. + Service. Excellent. Very attentive. + House Margarita for $4 at lunch. + The menu has lots of stock photos for the illiterate restaurant goer. - Crappy low-end Daily Chef flatware. - Paper napkins. - No Wi-Fi. - Cash only when I was there as the "credit card machine was broken". - Only nachos are Super Nachos for $9.50. I want nachos, but not at that price. - No prices for drinks on the menu. You have to ask about the price of each one. read more

They have bad costumer service, and they are lazy. The girl who served the drinks made our table hand each other our drinks and a drink was spilled, she made our table clean it with one of her rags. Food was salty. We asked for split checks but they wouldn't do it. read more

This place is apparently running on very thin margins as the sign hung at each table explains. First it's called "salsas" and they want you to to pay $4 for the quintessential Mexican restaurant pre-meal basket of chips and salsa, $4 for a basket of corn chips and a small cup of salsa? Seems steep if you are making this fresh. Tomatoes jalapeños, cilantro, and onion, and six corn tortilla cut and fried.... Not to mention the almost $4 a soda which is the money maker at pennies a glass. Food for the most part was edible but not fantastic. The thin margins were also apparent on my plate as well, with low quality grizzly meat. My meal did come with rice and beans and I got just a taste of rice, I'm talking like four teaspoons which was the best part of my whole meal. Skimping on rice? Isn't this the stuff you load up on the plate that's a cheap filler? Also the meat in the kids plate tasted freezer burned, which lead to questions of freshness of the whole meal. The waitstaff didn't get my order right, and there were plenty of them waiting around not doing anything. Poor scheduling or having too many family employees scheduled may be the problem here and fixing this may ease the slim margin issues. The place was decorated nice but could use a good cleaning; the table was sticky and lots of dusty decorations. Let's put this ideal staff to work deep cleaning the place. Bathrooms, floors, tables. Overall the food fed us and wasn't completely horrible, but I left still a little hungry. Can't say I will be back and my little one said "never again". It's a shame I really wanted to like this place and have a really good Mexican restaurant close to us that was our go to Mexican spot, but this place isn't that spot. read more

Used to be good, has gone downhill terribly. Last three times I've come, food looks thrown together and staff is apathetic. Was almost finished with my food when they finally brought my tortillas! read more

Picked up take out order - I rarely get shorted on the order so I didn't stop and check. Should have. Missing items including chips&salsa. I don't tip on take out - just like I don't tip taco bell or burger king. I went to the trouble to go get it. Surprise - tip was added later anyway. Not cool. read more

First time eating here, ordered Togo, the girl was super polite & bubbly on the phone, & they were both really pleasant when I picked up my food. Got the Mexican hamburger, which was AMAZING!! Only thing though... if you don't have a high heat tolerance with spicy food, you'll want to see if they offer a mild option. I have a pretty high tolerance, but this green kicked my ass! It's HOOOT!! Really good flavor, but extreme heat! Luckily I have plenty of milk & sour cream! It's my fault for not asking, but you almost never get GC that's got any heat to it all, anywhere anymore... not as hot as my Uncle's GC that's so hot your sinuses immediately drain, but it's close! lol read more

Had the Carnitas plate. Delicious. Plate was hot from the kitchen & the combination of carnitas, onions, potatoes, eggs& jalapeños were perfect. Green Chile sauce was perfect for dipping. Pepe was outstanding! read more

Who/ source- retired Chef of 40 years My wife and I have been Salsa's customers for about a decade now. The food has always been consistently good. With the early Winter weather this year (2019), soup sounded just right. I ordered a small order of the Albondigas. Salsa's NAILED IT. Not too salty yet plenty of fresh flavor and that favorite bite that is Albondigas. And the portion size? Brilliant!!! Plenty of meat and vegetables. Thanks Salsa's. We'll be back. read more

A great place to eat. Had to make it a destination place to eat at. On my last trip here I ate there 6 times in four days. I had most of the menu and wasn't disappointed in anything.

Went to Salsas on Tuesday for dinner. There was 12 of us in total for my nieces BDay. We ordered oysters to start and they didn't come till the end of the meal and once they came they were served warm and weren't even on a bed of ice. The waitress messed up 3 orders and never offered to replace the meals for what was ordered. We waited patiently after all of our food was served for eating utensils. My parents frequent there and know the owners really well. They let the owners know the discontent and the fact that we all paid our tabs (which wasn't inexpensive) only to be left grossed out and disappointed. The owners son-in-law said he'd "comp our next meal" so we thought to give it a try again. Showed up this evening and were told we could only have an Appetizer and One Meal comped. After waiting for over 20 minutes for a server to come wait on us we decided to pay for our drinks and leave. We will definitely not be back and they just lost some regular customers. Before anyone @'s me please keep in mind that I've worked as a bartender and a server. I know the do's and don't's of serving and making things right. They had a chance to correct the experience and failed. read more

My husband and I have been coming here since we started dating (actually the first place he ever took me, and first place I ever met his Nana). He'd been coming here since before it was called Salsas and it was called Mi Cabaña. The staff recognize us and our kids when we come in, it's a nice feeling for sure! My mom and I came in tonight and took my kids along. We got a sausage breakfast burrito, two kids quesadillas and green chile cheese fries. (Unfortunately, I was such a fat kid and didn't eat all day that I dove right into eating and didn't get any pictures of our entrees, soosorry 'bout that.) Everything was delicious, made perfectly, including our to go order of cheese enchiladas with green chile instead of red. The side of flour tortillas were pretty rock hard when we unwrapped them about 20 mins later but that's not really a deal breaker here. Definitely recommend this place and will continue coming back for many years! read more

Delicious! I've been looking for a good Mexican restaurant for years and now I have found Salsas!

Very disappointed, we have been coming to Salsas for several years, it has gone WAY DOWN in taste and service. All new staff, the quality of food , Drinks . I understand they took all the original staff to their new location, left the Wheat Ridge location to drown. read more

Just a fantastic, casual Mexican restaurant. I rolled in after a very long day at work to grab some grub with a groupon type thing I had bought. I'm so glad I did! First off, this place has plenty of parking, and is conveniently located just south of I-70 on Wadsworth at 44th. Eat It: The Fish Filet & Shrimp Combo. It was fantastic! It was a huge, thick filet of white fish that was cooked perfectly (not dry) and was delicious. This place has real rice & beans (no rice-a-roni) that are tasty. Drink It: $2 Sol on special. Be sure and check out the specials board when you walk in. I wish I had. The special was Carnitas, which would definitely have influenced my order, and I accidentally ordered the beer that was on special for $2, yay. This is just a great, casual Mexican joint. I will definitely be dropping in again. read more

Just like getting socks for Christmas, this place is a huge disappointment. I read the reviews about great green chili, even someone boasting it was too hot...and thought, this is my kinda place. In fact, without sampling I ordered the green chili nachos as an appetizer, secretly wishing the explosive hot flavor would want me to crave bite after bite... It wasn't meant to be. The food is good. The salsa is delicious. The service is good, in fact we were followed by the host/server with a basket of chips & salas as we looked for a place to sit. Just disappointed when I asked our server, "Do you have extra hot green chili?" He nodded yes. When the food arrived, I just shook no...then pouted and ordered roasted jalapeños. If you like routine mexican, this is your place. We did wash down our meals with a couple of house margaritas. Again, nothing special, but for $3.50 (Happy Hour) became a little more happier. read more

Try the breakfast burrito smothered, green chili can be hot, depending on the mood of the chef :) but good, ask for it on the side. Super nachos is a meal for 2. Shrimp cocktail, in the large bowl was very generous. Feels like "south of the border", not fancy decor but the staff is terrific; attentive, and will recognize you each time you come in. read more
