    Just mouth wateringly (is that a word?!) delicious authentic Mexican food. Everything was so delicious and made fresh on the spot. We were just obsessed with everything and so happy and so full and can't wait to come back for more on our next trip to Colorado! GO HERE!!!

    Carnitas burritos

    The food was authentic with great flavor!! We had a sope de adobado and a carnita burrito..the salsas were yummy , but don't try the red unless u like it . Superdooper fresh, would definitely recommend!! Once u order, they give u a pager , we didn't wait too long, but if u have to, it's totally worth it! Great bang for ur buck and priced reasonably!

    Food truck parked in front of a church, but you don't go there for the ambience. Though the view of the mountains is clearly visible and beautiful to stare at. The food is fantastic and the service is always impeccable. I'm never disappointed.

    Wow I'm from San Diego CA and would go to Mexico for tacos all the time and these adobada tacos were just as good as those So much flavor and juice in each bite! The carnitas flavor was something I've never tasted before it has a raspberry salsa on top that was amazing! The meat was a little harder than I liked for those but you couldn't really tell cuz of the flavor. The burrito was kinda small for 10 bucks, But it was good. Nothing crazy about it though. And the ladies working there were so sweet and nice! I love supporting small businesses over major companies. Would def go back if I was in the area again. Easy parking in a dirt lot very open area

    El Lechon is doing street tacos right! They are set up in a trailer and kick these out in minutes. I rolled up, ordered four tacos, and had them in 4-5 minutes. The tacos were good. They put their spin on classic street tacos. They also offered a couple that I would like to try, such as the tongue, but they were out by the time I got there. All in all, good ingredients and fresh flavors equal good tacos. The staff was kind and quick, defiantly worth the stop. Pro tip - they also take phone orders.

    We had seen the El Lichen truck cart when it was on 120th, before they moved to 104th, but never made it.. So glad they came back to "our" side, at 120th & a dead end - but east of Claud Ct. (you can get to this dead end from either side of 120th - no median). They have tacos, quesadillas and burritos and about 10 different meats to chose from. We opted for tacos - lengua (tongue), carnitas (pork), chicharron (pork rinds), steak, adobado (marinated). Every single one of the tacos was incredible. Each one had their own topping and when applicable sauces to enhance it. Tortillas were perfectly cooked to be the delicious vessel and didn't fall apart with even more salsa added. Friendly and helpful service, they are parked on a dead end street, but you pull into the strip mall, and plenty of parking. They are perfectly located, you can see the yellow cart from 120th & Claud (if you're going west). They even have a communal table set up under a tree to eat there. 80s Music was playing - which was AWESOME, while you waited. And even while you wait, you get a pager. We were the only ones at the time, and still got a pager - on their truck is written, "we do not serve fast food, we serve good food, as fast as we can".. AND THEY DID. We didn't wait long, honestly, the only song that played was Duran Duran's Rio, and we our pager buzzed. I'm glad this place is parked less than a mile from me right now! Definitely will be back!

    Quite possibly the best street tacos I've ever had in my life. I mean they're that good. Seriously. Selfishly I'd rather not share this information so I can keep going back without dealing with huge lines of people, but the owners deserve to be paid millions for how awesome their food is. But they will blow up in the same way Reunion in the new Commerce City is blowing up and both will dominate. Just making sure you were aware.

    Very good carnitas tacos! There is a raspberry (I think) sauce that is on them that sets the taco apart from other carnitas tacos.

    It's been many years since I last went to Las Margs. I used to go pretty often, but there was this…read moreguy who worked there, who was always rather pompous, I always assumed he was the owner. It soured me on the place, so I just stopped going. But recently, a coworker suggested we get lunch there, and I figured it had been long enough to try it again. I'm really happy I did. The vibe is great, sort of a sports bar feel but with a Mexican twist, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. I got the Reunion Combo, and it was a ton of food. It had a chicken tamale and a crispy relleno covered in this really tasty pork green chile, a red chile cheese enchilada, and a ground beef crispy taco. Everything was delicious, and the plate was huge. I definitely felt like I got what I paid for with the meal. The only thing I didn't like was the $4 ice tea. It kind of feels like a cheap way to make the bill bigger at the end, but honestly, the food and the better service made it worth it. I'm glad to have this spot back on my list for lunch in Commerce City.

    I really liked the vibe in here, l.e.d boards and march madness games on made me a happy camper!…read morethe service was nice, and i was shocked with how fast our food and drinks came out. I got an Enchilada, which came with beans and rice. I was happy to see my order was smothered, although I do wish my portion was bigger, it was pretty filling!

    Recently started working in the area, and my new co-workers invited me to a vendor-invite lunch…read more This place is casual with a nice atmosphere. Reclaimed metal sheet walls, concrete floor, a nice looking bar and good 80s/90s music piping in. The menu offers many taco options, which you purchase a la carte. I took a risk and got the ahi tuna taco, and a steak fajita taco. Both were good - but I was most impressed with the Ahi. It was better than the sushi I have had at a sushi restaurant since moving here to CO. Nice Asian sauce with sesame seeds throughout. Super good. It's light, though. It is in a butter lettuce "taco shell", but honestly I think putting it in a true corn or flour tortilla just would not mesh well. The service was very very pleasant and attentive. We even had to move a couple times because our party number kept changing, and she was as pleasant as can be. I look forward to heading back and trying something else. Co-workers tell me you really can't have a bad taco there, and I think I might challenge that notion and find out for myself! Cheers!

Perfect crunch, filled with meat, and satisfying. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Breakfast: - Breakfast Burrito ($3.49) with daily meat changes. Simply, you will not find a satisfying breakfast burrito at this price! Burrito is 8" long, 3" wide, and 3" thick (see photos because some reviews try to misrepresent the size). HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Green Chile - Pint ($6.00). Come on! Look at the thickness of this green chile! Just order it! (See photos) Ambiance: A very clean dine-in experience that is always attended and cleaned after dine-in customers. Overall: Forget some negative comments!
