Great food! Really nice people. Been here twice now and their tacos are amazing, salsas are delicious too!
I ordered Jarritos Molcajete as a first order for this restaurant and it was deliciously spicy! I couldn't finish it all but it is something that I will order again and again! I will visit this place again when I come back for my vacation again!
I didn't spend time there to feedback the atmosphere but it was clean, smelled good, and chill. they did have cute Mexican candy at the register. the food is made like they could make it in their sleep. like eating at a loved ones home. I had a bunch of different tacos and the meat portions are generous (looking at you fuzzys) and I paid 13 bucks with tip for 6 tacos with toppings to go. that feels like a steal out here. homey family feel. everyone come support this business they deserve it
We went in not knowing that they had changed ownership and changed the name of the restaurant, but we were happy to see that things on the menu didn’t change too much! Tacos are delicious and we could tell that they improved the seasonings on some of the meats that we choose! Would highly recommend if you want some delicious tacos! And we can I’ll be going back soon to try more things!
These tacos were amazing! Tried one of each meat since it’s our first time. Each one was good in its own way but the Borrego was by far the best. Salsas were very tasty with a good mix of spicy and not spicy. Great waitress and great service.
This might be our new favorite Mexican food restaurant in all of Colorado! Our server was attentive and kind. The surroundings were clean and beautiful-a mural (of a scene in Mexico?) filled one wall and included a Bible verse, in English and Spanish. The opposite wall displayed decor and signs that taco lovers would appreciate. The quality and flavor of the food was five star. My husband had one taco each of barbacoa, asada, carnitas and al pastor. He loved the barbacoa and al pastor the most, but they were all really tasty. I ordered the quesadilla de asada with sour cream and green chili and the savory steak was grilled to perfection. We even enjoyed bottled Tamarind and Pineapple juice and our total was under $30! Already thinking about what we want to order on our next visit!
A client recommended this taco shack and so I checked it out. Taco Tuesday - $2 tacos. I ordered 4 and they were piled high. 2 al pastor, one barbacoa and one pollo. Homemade chips and salsas. Great beans and rice. The food, service and atmosphere are all excellent. I live about 40 minutes away but next time I am in Evans I will make a bee line for this place. And I’m a chef so that is saying something. You won’t be disappointed if you go!
Cute little restaurant! They have very delicious tacos, they always taste fresh. Their salsa is also very good. I come almost every Tuesday now for their Taco Tuesday deal.
