Never thought i’d find authentic Mexican food in Estes, this place is perfect. Im picky with my mariscos but this place had a very affordable shrimp cocktail & it was delicious. Everything tasted fresh & homemade. Great customer service too, you can tell it’s family owned & the husband & wife who work here are great. Will definitely be back next time im in Estes!

The restaurant is colorful and decorated with portraits of Mexican icons. The staff was very nice. Even though it is a Mexican restaurant, my kids ordered nuggets and hamburger and ate it all with fries. I ordered the whole fired monaural and it was delicious and well cooked. My wife had some tasty street tacos. All in all we would come back again.

Horrible food that is over priced. 4 of us came for lunch and spent over $66 and we all walked away hungry and disappointed. I would literally go anywhere else to eat besides this place. They got our order wrong and when they remade it some of the meat on our tacos was raw . Worst Mexican food we have ever eaten.

I have high standards for tacos, and these were excellent. The only con is that they are very pricey for a counter taco shop, but it’s a tourist town, I guess. We got there right at closing and they were kind enough to cook us up some carne and fish tacos. Everything about the fish tacos was sublime–just as good as you’d find in San Diego. The carne tacos were very good too–authentic Mexican street food style. The tortilla chips are made in house and were fresh. Beans are topped with queso fresco.

We were excited to try a new place! To begin we were disappointed there were no alcoholic beverage choices (who doesn’t love a marg with Mexican food?!) We should have left then. Unfortunately the food didn’t deliver either…. We got an appetizer to begin, and left before finishing it because it was just so gross.

Ordered carne asada fries and taco salad. Delicious!!! Plate of asada fries were loaded and crispy fries. Taco salad with Birria meat was perfect!! Price is on point. Other places charge more but the food isn’t as good. Definitely a pleaser!!

Great service and delicious food! Our table ordered different items from the menu and everything was good. The place is small but we had no problem finding a spot when we arrived.

We had a chicken quesadilla and two cokes for $20. The quesadilla was made with cheddar cheese and shredded chicken. It was good but not anywhere authentic as we sat and listened to Mexican balladeers on the radio. For downtown Estes, it was ok. I wanted street tacos but you had to buy a plate of 5 for $15. Not sure I would make an effort to go back.

The most genuine Mexican dining experience in Estes Park! Very good food. The decor and music are very indicative of Mexico.
