  Cute restaurant, friendly staff. TERRIBLE FOOD! TERRIBLE neighborhood The starter of STALE chips and semi-frozen watery tomato and onion sauce [not salsa] with zero flavor was followed up with a $10 order of "nachos" which was more stale chips refried black bean with a smattering of melted white cheese and rings of a fresh cut jalepeno - totally gross rip off for .30 cents worth of food cost (maybe add a description if it's not gonna be a normal order of nachos?) My son's "coke" tastes weirdly like Bleach- maybe replace the filters on the soda machine? When the server asked "how is it?" and I replied "not good" and told her the honest truth (See above) she just stood there looking dumbfounded. Now, I've been a server for 25 years and that's NOT the appropriate response. There was no offer to remove the offending items and so I said just to bring the check, which she pulled out a machine and hovered over me expecting a gratuity for totally inept manners regarding customer service. Will not return. Save your money and go a few blocks down to a place with decent food. EDIT #1- my middle school aged son encouraged me repeatedly "be cool' but we saw retail gangso operating out of these spaces on east colfax. We witnessed what I believe to be retailtheftas these guys put thier trash o. The sllsyy

  Nice place and has been around for ages. Good food. The decor and setup is nice too. We also just had to have food to go for later because it was so good. We had Nachos as the appetizer and man are they good. I actually like that all the sour cream and extras aren't on it I'm sure you can add it but I think the way they are already great! My daughter loves them too because she doesn't like meat and all the extras. Got a Mexican Hamburger smothered and a beef burrito smothered for at home. All delicious and can't forget the house margarita!

  I'm in my 30s and all my life i have been coming all the way across town from littelton for the best green chili, boritos, tacos and beans. A smothered plate green w pork is the perfect choice. The family here is amazing. Fanny n Patricia are amazing. Everything works. Great place for a date night!

  The portions were meager and the food was way overpriced! I got a pint of menudo for $11(I was expecting a quart because that's what I would pay for a quart everywhere else) and it wasn't even that great! My beans and rice we're still in the shape of the scooping spoon, the beans were extremely dry and tasted like they came out of a can.Tex mex at best!! Do not order food from this restaurant it is not authentic and you will be extremely disappointed!!! The only reason I gave this restaurant one star is because I couldn't post this comment without giving them at least one star!!

  Really enjoyed our meal here. We both had a combo plate with cheese and onion enchilada, beef taco and tostada. Enjoyed a raspberry beer and house margarita as well. Great service.
