Back at it again with the breakfast burrito. Everytime I go here I always get myself an Egg Potatoe BACON special, and it is so darn good. Hits EVERY time. Man I love this place. read more

We always come here when we're craving a smothered burrito! This spot never misses. The staff is already friendly, quick, and efficient. There is limited seating, but it seems majority take togo. We've also tried their bacon egg burrito which is delicious! Highly recommend this spot! read more

Went for breakfast with my daughter. I haven't had Tamale Kitchen in ages! I wanted a breakfast burrito, but I can't have flour tortillas. They made me one with just the filling. Perfect! The nice young man at the counter was friendly and helpful. The burrito was delicious! All the flavors! Tamale Kitchen was busy, but our order arrived quickly. We chose to eat in, and got a quiet table in the back. Yum! Very no-frills space, and it looks like they've expanded their menu since my last visit. Must go back soon! read more

Ordered a breakfast burrito and one pork tamale. The burrito and their salsa was SSOOOO yummy! It was perfect sized before a hike. The masa on the tamale was soft and perfect, but i do wish the filling has a little sauce. Meat was flavored well, but lacked a little smoothness from the sauce. They also sell some jewlery there too. Cute items, wish I wouldve bought these earrings I saw while there. read more

Tamale Kitchen - Chilli enchiladas - Mexican Near Me - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

This is a fast, cheap place to eat reasonable food. The breakfast burritos are pretty good and they are at about $6 as of today which is very cheap. I like the 'special' + 'extra hot' combination. There is really not a lot of meat in there to be honest though. Many times there's a line but it goes real fast. The place is clean, and service can be nice but can be weird sometimes. Also they don't have water cups and every little think you ask for is going to be extra. It is a very popular place and it's been around for ages so something must be going right there. I think it's the combination of cheap prices and ok food that draws many people to this place. read more

The service is amazing I always come for their five dollar breakfast burritos and let me tell you. These are the biggest best burritos you can get for five dollars in Colorado. The meat is good. The green chili is phenomenal. There's no place outside. I would eat breakfast burritos at! Love me some TK read more

This place is a Joke... Dont waste your money here... The Tamales are horible, nearly completely just masa... No Meat.. Service is worse... Manager is horrible... read more

New Mexican style food with excellent green chili. Best breakfast burrito in the area IMO. read more

The bacon and chorizo special breakfast burritos were really good, and service was very quick from ordering to it being ready to go!

Tamale kitchen, my beloved. Best breakfast burritos on earth. I dream of their green chile. read more

Man, I love Tamale Kitchen if I'm ordering via DoorDash (5 stars there!)... it always comes hot and the breakfast burritos are great. However, I legit got the Gen Z stare when ordering in person yesterday. The girl at register stared at me and didn't say a single word. I said "Hi, how's it going?" No response. Then said hi again in case she didn't hear me despite blankly looking at me. Proceeded to order and she told me the price, handed me the receipt and said nothing (usually they at least give you a ticket number and instructions for pickup because as a new customer you'd need that info) we still tipped because of the staff, but she may as well have been replaced by AI) went right back to her phone after we ordered and gave the same loser service to the next customer. Wild. My brother happened to go the same day and he had the same bizarre experience lol. I'll stick to the other location in Littleton moving forward. read more

Won't be back, they don't care if you get what you want, just mass producing and getting you out the door. Ordered breakfast burritos smothered. No one asked what heat level. I went back before getting my order to confirm extra hot chili. She said was mild. I advised no one asked what type of chili, but she didn't care. I asked if they could just top off with some extra hot then. Refused unless I paid for an extra pint of chili. On top of that, got to meeting and coworker found a hair in their burrito! Poor service, boring chili and poor hygiene. Not a recipe I'm willing to try again. read more

Was there as soon as it opened and they were ready to serve. Friendly counter service that delivered a hot quick bacon egg and potato breakfast burrito. I was expecting a soupy mess inside but it was very well made. I was the only customer there so was nice and quiet. In and out. I liked the spice level of the chili. Not too spicy but had a good kick. read more

They deserve the 5th star. Too damn good and it's very consistent, employees are always very nice. It doesn't get better, very good food, very fast, nice people. read more

My wife and I were waiting for two of our Aunt's to have breakfast together and arrived earlier then them so my wife said she was going to wash her hands and had to ask for a key for the restroom at the Sloan's Lake location. The lady asked very rudely if we were going to order anything and my wife said yes. Once our Aunt's arrived we began to place our orders and the lady was just extremely rude to the point one of our Aunt's decided to not order anything. Had my wife and I and our other Aunt not already ordered, we too would have not ordered and would have rather gone next door to Rupert's which was busy but would rather stand in line then go to Tamale Kitchen again as we are used to the excellent service and food from the Highlands Ranch location. The food at the Sloan's Lake location was also less than sub-par and do not recommend this location. read more

This is super casual place to grab breakfast burritos and tacos. Breakfast burritos are really delicious; bacon is my favorite but chorizo is good too. Very potato-y. The service is good and the food comes out quickly. It's nice to have a place in the neighborhood like this. read more

Usually, they're pretty great but today was not great guy was rude and my breakfast burrito was 90% potatoes. Almost no eggs read more

Tamale Kitchen - All potatoes. Where are the eggs??? - Mexican Near Me - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

The breakfast burritos are always great - there hot, with good ingredients and they are ample in size. The only slight drawback was we'd asked for one with less potatoes and we are told yeah you will get that and yet we didn't. It would be good to know if they don't customize The orders. Just let the customer know. I am not quite sure what happened there. Nevertheless we will be back the food. Is that good. read more

Great quality Mexican food for the price. Tamales can be hard to find as a staple on a menu, these are pretty good. 4 stars for the overall value. The food is not fancy but it's good and very reasonably priced. It reminds me of holidays at my grandma's house. Tamales were a staple around Christmas. You should know the printed menu at the counter has a few things that aren't on the board, so look at both. I love crispy rellenos theirs is pretty solid but specify crispy or you will get a traditional one. I saw a review on their chile and wanted to say I think their chile has a kick but nothing crazy. It's also red chile not green. I'm not sure if they have a chile plate (which is what you want if you want more pork) but their chili for sides and smothering doesn't have much meat, which is normal. Also, besides chiles, onion and tomato you won't find a lot of "veggies". read more

Great food and amazing prices! Get the #1 combo for $10! Strong recommend! Loved it! read more

Messy sometimes but always hits the spot. There burritos are excellent make sure to always get the burrito special way with cheese and green chili. Only downside is they do not provide water cups here. Service is always fast count to 60 and you'll have your burrito. I recommend beef special. read more

It's just ok. Definitely far from great, but the price is so good I can't really mark it down too much. It's definitely fast food style, the inside isn't very appealing and not well taken care of. But with that said, I suppose it was clean. I got the Chicken taco meal, which has 3 chicken tacos with rice and beans. I also had a tamale on the side. Really, really bland food. The chicken tacos were just plain boiled chicken with cheese in a shell. The salsa saved my life there, and even then it really just seems like it came out of a jar of "Pace" from the grocery store. The food comes out fast, way too fast to be cooked with care. The tamales are pretty underwhelming for a place with "Tamale" in their name. read more

Tamale Kitchen - mexican food in a styrofoam container - Mexican Near Me - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

I ordered a Mexican burger paid for it then received a cheap bean burrito, after realizing I went up to the counter to fix it they refused to do anything and I went home hungry. read more

This was my first visit to any Tamale Kitchen. I knew the green pork tamales were fantastic, so wanted to try the breakfast burrito. I was delighted with the balance of eggs, bacon, potatoes, cheese & green chili. It was delicious from the first to the last bite! I had to wait 20 minutes on Saturday at 9:30am. It was 100% worth the wait! read more

So bad I think they were trying to deliberately poison me. The food is something you can pull out of a couple of cans from the grocery store. Smothered means it covers the poor or lack of flavoring. If this is what passes as Mexican food in Colorado, I weep for all of you. read more

5+ stars!!! They have the BEST breakfast burritos! Bacon and chorizo are my 2 favorites but the sausage is yummy too. It doesn't come with cheese or their green chile sauce unless you ask... it's an additional .50 cents. So, for $5.50 you get an amazing burrito. The burrito size has gotten smaller and the price did increase a little...due to the price of EVERYTHING increasing. But they have the best burritos in Douglas County! Oh, and their bean and cheese tostada's are also yummy...and only $2...piled high with lettuce cheese and tomatoes. Ugh, now I want a burrito...lol. read more

I do not recommend this location! This place has few tables to eat at plus they weren't clean the day of my visit. The entire place lacks cleanliness or any organization. The cashier was not helpful at all with food selections. She seemed burdened with any questions. The food - it seemed to be made from aged ingredients - it was disgusting. There are no words to describe it! If you want Mexican food even Taco Bell is better by a mile. But if you choose to eat here be prepared to have some bathroom time. read more

Was very hopeful this could be my go-to breakfast burrito spot as it's so close to our new home. However, it's probably the worst I've ever had. I can only vouch for the breakfast burritos & their "green chili". The breakfast burritos are "made to order" but all of the insides including the eggs are made ahead of time, making the quality & taste very rubberlike. As for their "green chili" ... there's nothing green about it. It looks more like a red salsa; hard to explain. After giving them several tries, I decided to give up hope. read more

This is a solid spot that it's in my dinner rotation when I don't know what to eat. The food is nothing to write home about but not bad at all. The thing that keeps it in my rotation is their family meals. I typical get the family pack #2 this includes six tacos, six tamales, a pint of beans, a pint of rice, six tortillas, a pint of chile, and a 2-liter of coke all for $33! It's a great deal. Also, I would recommend the red chile tamales normally I prefer green chile but here I think the red chile is much more flavorful. read more

Great breakfast burritos and tamales!! Service is fast and friendly!! Love the bean burritos too

Love TK. This one is the best location. Breakfast Burritos are 10/10. Quick, filling, delicious.

Delicious rellenos and enchiladas. Friendly staff. Clean restaurant and great tamales.

So the food was fine but then they told me they charge $3 for water. Not a bottle of water, water out of the tap. They went on to explain that kids take the water cup and get soda. One I am no where near the age of a kid and two they don't have water cups. Plus soda is cheap. Who cares if a few kids steal soda. Instead they push me away as a customer. No way I am paying three dollars for tap water. They could charge an extra 7 cents per food item to pay for the stolen soda by kids. This is crazy read more

Forgot to give us the tamales in our take out order. Found out when we got home so I called them to remind them to have them ready for me so I can come back and pick them up. It kept going to voicemail so I ended up just driving there instead. Only problem is that they were closed at 4:15 pm on a Monday. When their sign clearly says open till 7:50 pm. read more

Tamale Kitchen - a sign on the door of a restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Highlands Ranch, Colorado

Breakfast burritos are one of the most important things in my life. I think about them everyday, and I have a breakfast burrito every single day. I have had almost every breakfast burrito in the entire state of Colorado (nowhere else does green chile justice). Y'all have cured hangovers. I have cried tears into these breakfast burritos. I have come to get a breakfast burrito and ended up back for another one a few hours later. These are the only breakfast burritos in the entire state that truly understand me, despite the 50/50 chance of there NOT being extra green chile on my burrito like I wanted. Y'all open WAY past the breakfast hours of a working woman, which would be fine if you delivered. Part of me also hopes you don't ever deliver though because coming in has become a part of my routine. I am at this place pretty much everyday and I couldn't tell you who works there/owns it. Overall points: - Just plain fantastic - Terrible inconvenient hours (Fine, whatever, be that way) - Speedy service (Rarely takes more than 2 minutes unless you're there at the opening hour when there's a line out the door) - Occasional mistakes (doesn't even matter, still great, you just have to trust them) - You can see how they make them and put em together, just plain simple good ol' breakfast burritos - They don't want to be your friend or know anything about you which is refreshing. Just gonna give you your breakfast burrito. Come as you are. - Very affordable - I don't know what I'd do without y'all. Love you. read more

super great food, super rude customer service by a younger girl working the register. wouldn't go back just because of her.

I love going here there beans are great. Love getting some chile sauce. And their breakfast burritos are the best

I'm only here for the breakfast burritos, so if you're looking for info on their tamales, please skip on over to another review. At least once a week at work someone will deem any given day to be "burrito day" and this is immediately followed by a couple of venmo transactions and a trip to Tamale Kitchen. Super close to my job and they are QUICK with these burrito orders. A bacon, egg, potato special burrito (special = chili and cheese inside) is cheap, delicious, and HEFTY. Not sure where they get their bacon from, but they are thick ol' pieces and SO good. They have a pretty extensive menu, so I'm sure they have quite a few other yummy things here.. But that burrito - you can't go wrong. read more

Never again! I recently decided to try this place yet again, even though they have been sliding down the slippery slope. I stopped in to order food to go and the man taking my order was SO RUDE and curt with me I told him to forget it and told him I wouldn't spend my money at a place that treated their customers in such a manner, and I told him just how rude he was. The place was empty. The people running this place need to realize you make money with REPEAT customers and I for one will never return. read more
