We recently lost a family member who lived in Greeley nearly her entire life and her dear friend recommended the funeral party have dinner here for one last remembrance. It's a big place with lots of parking and tables but it gets BUSY in there. We had a party of a dozen people, and they had to push tables together in the bar. Kind of noisy if you intended to be able to hear each other so not ideal. That's not, however, something I'd ding them for. Just something to keep in mind for your gatherings. What was kind of a deal breaker is how long it takes for the host to get to your table to take your order and how long it takes to get your order. We were probably waiting a good 20 or 30 minutes for each of those events. That being said, the service is very friendly. But they must have been slammed. We saw smaller parties getting their order before us who had come in after us. I didn't get any feedback from the others on their food, but the portions are massive so there was a lot of waste. I had the large albondigas soup which was okay. It wasn't rich in flavor and got really salty if you dip the accompanying bread in it. The meatballs were just kind of greasy and the rice in them probably wasn't necessary. Soup contains zucchini which quickly begins disintegrating in the broth, some large chunks of potato and carrrot also floated amongst the many meatballs. Prices are on the more affordable side if you come from a larger city. Dinner entrees were about $14 - 17. Our entire party ate for only $123! I don't have any reason to ever return to Greeley so the question of whether I'd return is moot. I thought it was amusing that one family member got a margarita to go. WTH? read more

Absolutely horrible customer service. I placed an order for takeout for a Gordo burrito, making sure to emphasize that I do not want bacon in my burrito, which it normally doesn't come with bacon. Get home and find pieces of bacon in my burrito. Called to discuss my concerns with the most absolutely disrespectful person named Brenda. She basically told me I was a liar. She told me I can bring in the burrito for a new one before proceeding to say "bye" and hanging up. At this point I'm livid. I called back and asked to speak to a manager. I get Brenda again, who tells me the manager is not available to speak to. Worst experience ever. I will definitely not be going back. read more

Our go to Mexican restaurant. Delicious food and large portions. The service is always exceptional.

The food was amazing, service was great, and the atmosphere of the place to dine in with family was fantastic.

Not in Greeley often and based on the reviews thought this was worth a try, delicious! I went combo with crispy relleno & beef flauta, husband had dos amigos (without the sauce, too spicy for him ) My relleno was dipped, lightly breaded & absolutely perfect. I think anything with the shredded beef would be tasty. House marg was an 8/10, little sweet but very good. Sat at the bar and had great service, big space, guessing great for groups too. Will definitely be back when we are up this way! read more

Good food. Large portions. Reasonable prices. I really like the stuffed sopapillas. Nice to have choices in spice levels and to be able to add extra. There salsa bar is also really good read more

I've been coming here for a while to get the breakfast burritos. They usually 1 or 2 to choose from that are hot n ready. But if you can wait about 10 minutes, they'll customize you one. And I'd have to say, they're the 2nd best breakfast burritos in town. Which is to say, really good...... But today, I stopped in for lunch. 230 on a sonar l Sunday, and they were busy but not swamped. Took about 6 minutes to get seated. The server brought me a complementary order of bean dip instead of the usual chips & salsa. It's a nice change and tastes pretty good. For my entree, I decided on the Enmoladas. Basically, chicken molé enchiladas with your choice of refried pinto or black beans and rice. The molé here is delicious. Seriously, it's one of the best I've tried. It's spicy, too, for molé. Which is okay! read more

Good portions, friendly staff, prices are reasonable, good drinks, house margaritas are quite well.

Ordered chick and carne asada on Sunday was under the impression it came with beans and rice since it says so on the menu! I paid $22 dollars for two pieces of meat and some rotten avocado. Mad doesn't even begin to express how I feel about this and the food was horrible! I will never come here again! I went to El Mero Mero and got the same thing for $16 with beans and rice! read more

Had lunch at Greeley restaurant on July 11th, 2025. Very poor service and waitress was rude. Ordered the Carne con chile colorado plate. The chile con carne colorado was cold when served. Advised waitress and plate was taken back to microwave. When customer complained of food manager gave a $4.00 discount on order. I would not recommend this restaurant for mexican food if you are in Greeley. Theres other great mexican food establishments. I give this restaurant a score of 1 out of 10, poor service and food quality. read more

We placed a to go order on 12/22 for one quart of pork green chili, half and half with tortillas. Went to pick it up and they put down two quarts which we paid for. Got home and no tortillas and not a single piece of port in either container. Very disappointed! read more

We always eat at El Cielo, but have never had them cater until today. The food was amazing, and they were right on time for our 70+ person graduation. The day was stressful to begin with, but El Cielo catered the food and did an incredible job setting everything up & provided the best authentic Mexican meal for all of our friends and family. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you to the owner Torre and staff who were amazing, and so accommodating from the beginning. Several of our closest F&F asked where the food came from because they were so impressed. When our F&F come back to town, we know where they'll want to eat dinner # #ElCielo read more

Horrible service after they messed up an order. We were there over an hour for my 1 meal to be corrected. The food was good once I finally got it but the poor service ruined it. read more

Love this place it's my go to in Greeley for great Mexican food. I love the salsa bar and the bean and cheese dip with the chips they serve up on seating. The bar side has TVs for watching sporting events with good food and drinks. They have tongue tacos my favorite. read more

Great food even for picky kids. Seating is not crowded and servers are efficient. Bar beverages are good and it's a nice atmosphere.

This is a spacious Mexican restaurant with good food I like pollo pechuga as it is an excellent choice for the keto/Paleo diet. They have a nice bean dip and chips that are complementary. Friendly and quick service. Today, is about my sixth visit and found they have vegetarian green chile. And it comes in HOT!! This please my veggie sister. We go here regularly Now. The servers are nice and is have liked thE food. read more

Took over 30 minutes to get a to go order of two simple breakfast burritos today (7/21/24). They forgot about the order and were blatantly ignoring me sitting on the bench waiting until I reminded them and they magically found the ticket. Unorganized and understaffed, not what it used to be. Not even great quality after nearly a 40 minute wait. read more

Here's to Friday another great service! Great place to start the weekends. Never over crowded very quiet and great food as always read more

Excellent Mexican food. Lots of options and not at all pricy. We loved the salsa bar. Hubs was happy with his fajitas. I had a yummy burrito and daughter had chicken nuggets. read more

I was really hoping for a great experience. The building is fine, as is the ambiance. As expected. Issues? Absolutely. Waitress couldn't remember anything. Ask for a soda? Water is brought. Had to ask 3 or 4 times. Brought friend the wrong soda. I had the burrito supreme with ground beef and black beans. It was ok, not very flavorful. Wifey - she says "meh" on her meal. Friend had a grilled fish. Dry dry dry. Where they can improve: Chips and refried beans - very bland. Maybe add a bowl of salsa. Wait staff - although nice, need to be trained. With limited seating, it isn't that busy. Remember what your customer asks for! read more

Service was good, but the food is seriously the worst I've seen in a Mexican restaurant. Better off to going to Taco Bell. Save your money read more

We were seated and we waited for the server and we waited and we waited. Set an alarm for five minutes still no server. so we left.

Really good mole. Happy to report I will go back when I return again to Greeley. Fairly generous with chips and salsa, but I notice all of the Colorado Mexican restaurants were conservative. Is there a tortilla chip shortage? read more

Best Mexican food in Greeley! The servers and helpful and friendly, the food is amazing! Bean dip and chips are a great start to the meal, every entree that I've had I've liked. The desserts are great too. To go breakfast burritos are also good, and a great deal. read more

Wonderful food and service. I definitely recommend would go back again. The bean dip with chips was great. Large meal portions well worth the trip. read more

I used to love this place. But today was about the worst service we have had at any restaurant in a long time. The waitress was too busy helping her other tables and was more worried about clearing other tables before helping us. We sat there for a good ten minutes without anyone taking our drink orders then she comes over and immediately asked if we were ready to order well yes we'd like our drinks. Idk if she thought we weren't going to tip her but sure felt like she was treating us this way. read more

I was born and raised in San Diego and this is the worst Mexican food I've ever had... canned enchilada sauce... really. Fn gross $14 what a waste. Never again. read more

Just sat down in this place near the bar. Not busy. Literally sat there for 10 mins watching the bartender/waitress casually stroll by multiple times with her head down. Hopefully their food is good b/c their service clearly sucks. I just got up and left. ‍ read more

This is hands down my favorite restaurant! Everything has always been so good here! I stop by often to pick up breakfast burritos, which are always awesome! I also pickup lunch for takeout often, and you can't beat the build-your-own smothered burritos! My family sits down for meals at this location a lot, and we always enjoy the food, service, and value! We also pickup the pound of carnitas (with all the fixin's) many times to take home and eat - the value on this is incredible! The owner, Tori, is often available and is extremely nice and welcoming! Meeting Tori is the reason I started visiting the restaurant, and boy am I glad I did! I have taken many people from out of town to this place, and they always want to return every time they come for a visit! I highly recommend El Cielo if you're looking for a great place to eat! read more

The only pick up meal I budgeted for this month and the restaurant has had another downswing. Just like life, sometimes the burritos have cheese instead of sprinkles known as cheese. And I have ordered over the phone many over 20 years, but I swear other than the basics, he made up the rest and then forgot the sopapillas but tried to convince me they were in the bag!? Whose nephew was that? Put it in back where it doesn't have to deal with the public. Better luck next time! read more

Great selection of Tex-Mex dishes, many with build-your-own options. Friendly and prompt service. Tasty and generous portions. Kinda dark ambiance; I prefer a more colorful and better lit restaurant for Mexican food. Reasonable prices. read more

This place is unbelievable. Overall average OK Mexican food. But the game changer is charging seven dollars for a side of guacamole. OK except for wasn't even guacamole. It was fake guacamole it contains no avocados in it. When I brought it to their attention they even had the guts to argue about it. Cannot recommend this restaurant. If they do fishy stuff like that, Who can count on the authenticity of their ingredients. MUY MALO. Next step, Content doing the weld county health department as they were serving in selling food that is fraudulent read more

If I could I would give no stars I would. By far the worst service. It took 30 min for a drink refill when our waitresses and other employees walked by several times and ignored us when we asked for someone to stop. Then as soon as we get home our whole house gets food poisoning immediately. Something isn't either properly cooked, someone isn't cleaning properly something. Oh and if you are caucasian or any other race don't even bother going there heads up, the staff will talk about you and treat you like you don't even exist. read more

So good! Love this place! Service outstanding, food THEE BST! Our new favorite hang out

BEST Mexican food in NoCO. That is saying a lot since the abundance of Mexican restaurants in this area. Give this place a try and you will be hooked. Most times I get the pork in green chili burrito topped and smothered. There hot isn't too hot but it is delicious. When you are first seated you are brought chips and bean dip which is a nice change from the normal salsa at most places. They are also open for breakfast and have pretty tasty breakfast burritos until 11am. During the week they have BOGO margaritas, which they make strong! :) The owner is very friendly and always makes an effort to get to know his customers and takes advice on how to make his business better. read more

I feel terrible giving 2 stars. They lost my business. Loved this place. Was really good for Greeley. I recommended often. Went in last Saturday it was awful. My enchilada sauce was straight from the can. It was bad. read more

Really good food and reasonable pricing I have to say this is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Greeley area so far. They bring bean dip to your table with chips but don't worry there is a salsa bar available with multiple salsa options. Ordered the green pozole on my first visit and it was really good. Second visit I had the lunch buffet. It included enchiladas, rice, beans, and a taco/tostada bar. I can't complain too much for $10 but I wish there was just a little more variety on the lunch buffet. Must try if you want some great mexican food read more
