Daniel's Taco Shop in Colorado Springs has become my go-to lunch spot anytime I'm craving Mexican…read morefood! I've been coming here for over a year now and have probably visited five or six times during that period. Every single visit has been consistently great. The food is always excellent, the portions are generous, and the service is consistently friendly and efficient. The place always seems to be busy, which honestly says a lot about how popular it is. Despite the steady flow of customers, they do a great job keeping things moving and getting orders out. In my opinion, this is easily one of the most authentic Mexican food spots in Colorado Springs. The food is flavorful, the portions are satisfying, and you definitely get your money's worth. I also signed up for their rewards program, although I haven't actually seen any points come through yet. I'm pretty sure I've got some stacked up after all my visits, so I'll have to look into that and hopefully put them to good use! Overall, just a fantastic local taco shop with consistently delicious food, great service, and generous portions. Definitely one of my favorite places to grab lunch in Colorado Springs, and I'll absolutely keep coming back!

Ordering was easy at the counter, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The food came out hot, fresh, and quickly. Most importantly, it was delicious! Being from California, I can be pretty particular about Mexican food, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was here in Colorado. The dining area and restrooms were both clean and well-maintained. Overall, a great meal with excellent service. I'll definitely be back!

Absolutely worth the visit!…read more Tacos Del Gordo was amazing! From the moment we walked in, everyone was incredibly friendly, and the quality of the food for the price is hard to beat. The portions are HUGE! I had the cheese enchiladas, and they were absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the birria plate, and it came with so much tender, flavorful meat that we took enough home to make a couple more tacos later. Having lived in Texas for many years and visited Mexico for about eight weeks each year, we're pretty particular when it comes to authentic Mexican food--and this place impressed us. The salsa bar alone is worth mentioning. There were so many great flavors, and everything tasted fresh. Part of me wants to keep this place a secret so it doesn't get too busy , but they truly deserve all the attention and support they can get. Great prices, generous portions, authentic flavors, amazing salsa, and genuinely friendly service. Definitely make the effort to check them out--you won't regret it!

Excitement was high as we ordered a Pastor Burrito, Birria, Chorizo, and Pastor Tacos, and Zapata fries. The fries were cold. I don't know how it was too hard to warm up some premade fries, but it managed to happen. The one part of the fries that was good was the pork. And I still wasn't blown away. It really seems like they just can't find a happy medium, because the fries were cold but most of the meats were cooked crematorium-style. I mean, absolutely burnt to a crisp. I also just don't know how hard it is to mess up a good chorizo, but it managed it happen. My Birria Taco was luckily pretty good, but I was just severely disappointed by everything else. Nothing stood out as being especially good-decent, even, in most cases. And we didn't even get any chips to go with our large assortment of salsas. What the heck, man. The pork bumped this review up to two stars, and the pricing was decent, but we still had to spend an extra $20 at a nearby gas station to get the taste of overcooked meat and sadness out of our mouths. I'm not sure how it got this far on Yelp, but I'm going to be the person to say that Zapata may have been the biggest culinary disappointment in my year so far. No wonder, considering the meat tastes like it's been forgotten in the fiery depths of a bonfire for weeks too long.

The staff is wonderfully friendly and helpful. I had visited deer over 10 years ago and remembered it being good, but it was not close to any of my normal haunts. I decided to bring my husband here today to try it and was pleasantly surprised, and reminded of why I liked it previously. My husband got a vegetarian burrito smothered in queso. I had a burrito bowl with Carne Asada , and all the toppings! Both were delicious! The salsa choices range from mild (pico de gallo or corn salsa) to HOT (red or spicy avocado), but my fave was the medium "green" which was moderately spicy and extremely well seasoned. The burrito tortillas were also fun to watch them prepare!

Accessible parking, an inviting exterior, and the overall reviews looked promising. I decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did.

The food was flavorful, the drinks hit the spot, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. If you're looking for a quick Mexican bite with good drinks, friendly service, and a nice atmosphere, Milagro's is definitely worth the visit.

Our server Amanda seemed irritated that she had to serve us at all and denied a request (without even bothering to ask the kitchen) for a simple quesadilla for a toddler. I was pretty close to asking for an extra chorizo taco minus everything but the cheese. When a busy toddler mom has hands full and maybe can't memorize the menu instantly, perhaps the answer to "what are the salsa options?" should be more friendly than "it's the upper left corner on the menu". It's not that complicated, there are basically 3 options it probably would have taken her the same amount of time to say what they were vs making busy mom have to revisit the menu. Might do takeout next time, but for sure wouldn't dine in!
