"If you're looking for the ultimate Mexican dining experience, this restaurant is an absolute gem! Their Michelada is hands down the best I've ever had—perfectly balanced, refreshing, and bursting with authentic flavors. Honestly, every single dish we've ordered has been incredibly delicious, from appetizers to the main courses. It's clear that they put so much care and passion into their food.
This is, without a doubt, the most amazing Mexican restaurant I’ve ever visited. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Mexican cuisine!"

"Best Mexican food in Glenwood Springs! Tons of great options to choose from, including tacos, enchiladas, tamales, and chile rellenos.
My table ordered two combination plates and the Mexican Flag (4 enchiladas) and everything was hot, quick, and tasty.
The salsa was great, the margaritas were excellent, and the service was nice. They even had a Mariachi player going from table to table playing fun songs like La Bamba."

"If you go, check your receipt when you are done. Make sure the waiters don’t set their own tip.
Terrible place. Food was trash and super over priced. Service was rude. Our waiter couldn’t be bothered to check on our table but was friendly and attentive to the other tables. He seemed annoyed when we were ready to order. Came in for what we were hoping was going to be a nice meal and ended up having one of the worst dining experiences in recent memory. I think the waiter thought he could pull a fast one and try and give me a different check that was $9 more than our order. Caught the difference from my original check and could even get a reason for why they over charged me. Gave me the difference in cash after being caught. Don’t ever go here. You’d think that when you go in and spend $76 at a restaurant they’d at least treat you with a semblance of kindness."
