Ok... I was raised in La Junta, Co. I grew up eating at a place called Mexico City Cafe. Totally a…read morefamily run place for like 40 hrs that I know of. My father was a good chef. I grew up eating tamales from Grandma Carrillo. The town grandma. The food here was different than I've ever had. It was good, hot and well presented. BUT, We asked about the green chili there and got a sample to try. My brother and I know our stuff about green chili. We've never had green chili like theirs. It wasn't green chili in our sense of the word. It was more like tons of sour cream with flavorings in it. No heat and (in my opinion) kind of blah. The Chipotle sauce on the enchiladas was very different as well. Same sort cream base. When my brother and I first asked about the chili, in all honesty the waitress had no clue what we meant by green chili. I'm thinking that their versions are related to different recipes from different parts of Mexico. If that makes sense. but.. don't get me wrong, it was very good. Nice place to eat.. but give me some more common Mexican food. There was not ONE TAMALE in the menu. No sopapillas. No vermicelli. No chili con carne. Of your looking to try a different type of Mexican food, go here because it is tasty. I can NOT say I had a bad meal..... it was just something different.

They have a ton of options, however there are no prices on anything or descriptions, so you need to ask every time. I ordered the quesabirrias. They were very good but the girl taking the order asked me if I wanted cheese on them, since I didn't know what type of cheese they were using I asked for it on the side. Come to find out they charged me 1.00 for cheese AND .50 for the consume that normally comes with birria tacos. I wasn't asked if I wanted it or not. If they are going to ask if you want certain ingredients on your food they need to let you know it's an up charge or at least put it on the menu board everything that comes on or with it. If all the cons had been avoided, I probably would have given the place 5 stars.

Colorado, and specifically Colorado Springs seems to cater to those that don't have a keen sense of what's good. So for COS Pueblo Viejo is on par. It isn't great but it isn't awful either. 3 stars/OK seems fair. Clean and tidy place. Very kind and attentive staff. Food... Chips and salsa were pretty standard. The salsa was very runny and much spicier than I expected. The flautas were atypically large. Almost like a small chimichanga. Not very crispy for being fried. My enchiladas were supposed to come with flour tortillas but showed up with corn, and were just very bland. The rice and beans were super basic and not great. I make better rice at home.

This restaurant literally saved me from starvation caused by a nearby food hall where they didn't…read morehave much selection for food when I was hangry (hungry and angry to be precise!!) Upon quick search online, this restaurant was only a stone's throw from the very food hall. And placing my order online was quite easy although since it was through a 3rd party app, for the restaurant to recognize my order took a minute (I called them after 10-15 minutes after I had placed my order and they fortunately had it in their system where they had already been working on it.) By the time I walked up to it, everything (two fish tacos, refried bean and elotes) were all nicely bagged and ready to go. Inside: Quite the ambience. What was most intriguing were the swing seats at the garage door that opens up at the street side (looking over Tejon Street. See photo I uploaded.) They are perfect place for kids to sit (although they might be (at the same time) dangerous if they are not careful as they can easily fall from them.) Spaciousness with lots of wooden feel. The lightings and tables/chairs all match to be harmonious. Employees/service: Friendlily greeted me upon approaching the kitchen entrance. One of them immediately handed me the food so there was absolutely no wait. Food: Quite good. Pescado tacos (2), refried beans (looked soupy at first and yet I realized that it was the perfect runny-ness when I took a bite and elotes with lots of flavors. All of them are good portions and the price points were at par. Whereas many will agree with me that this is not the most authentic Mexican place, decent/solid service, fun ambience and good/solid food are three main elements that make me say that I was quite happy that I got some food from Zocalo to satisfy my hangry-ness.
