    Outside of resturant
    Natalie A.

    I was nervous eating Mexican food in Colorado and I was pleasantly surprised to find such great Mexican food. We live in Texas and visited Colorado and this resturant was delicious. The mole was good sweet but not too sweet with a slight spice kick. Everyone enjoyed their meals ans the wait staff was friendly and helpful. Ambiance had the feel of a typical Mexican resturant.

    I really liked this place. I was in Winter Park with friends for the last snowboarding trip of the season and we drove by this place and the colorful mural grabbed my eye. The interior was very stylish as well. The food was authentic and reasonably priced and the drinks were strong and tasty. There were some guys outside building a patio which should be an awesome addition as the weather gets warm. I'll definitely come by again in the future!

    There's a certain kind of disappointment that stings more in a small mountain town, where the options are few and you just want one honest meal. Azteca used to be that--a solid plate of beans and tequila to cut the cold. But this last visit? A cacophony of chaos. We were sat next to a window we didn't ask for, serenaded by a waiter who whistled like a bored canary in a prison yard. The nachos came bone-in--literally--and the margarita tasted like a frat party hangover in a plastic cup. Bathroom? Apocalypse. The kind that makes you question every bite. This wasn't just bad food--it was a loud, oblivious mess served with a smirk. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere that still gives a damn.

    Realizing that a lot of pictures of the food here are mine....maybe I should get busy on a review. I just stopped in today on Black Friday and the place is packed! Literally, there's a line now and no empty tables. The new owners have revamped the menu (which was always excellent), but the quality has improved with a little higher pricing. The meat quality is great, the margaritas are excellent, lots of fresh tasting ingredients! We usually eat here during any trip to the Grand county area. We love the food and the service! The new menu is missing a few things we especially liked like Colorado Pork green chili. My husband said it's replaced with a green tomatillo sauce....yikes! We also miss the pollo Vallarta dish. What's good? Well, just about everything we have ordered has been fresh and tasty. The caramel flan is the best I have had in my life! I also love the skinny margarita here! Carne Asada is probably my favorite of the menu choices, but like I said, you can't go wrong with this new menu! Parking lot out front is free, across from Safeway in Fraser. PS: if you need that Colorado pork green chili, go to the Granby location. They are the previous owners, I believe!!

    Many reviews here mention the rude servers and I have to agree. I could tell that all of the servers were busy, they were running around. There was even a sign on the door mentioning be patient and kind to the servers, but that is a two way street. Like another review mentioned they are not really accommodating with making orders customized (especially if you are vegetarian). They do have a vegetarian section of their menu. I ordered the enchiladas de espinaca (spinach enchilada) and it was ok, not amazing. Another member of our party ordered a vegetarian burrito - it came with steamed veggies that were mostly unseasoned. There were also a lot of flies, probably because the door is kept open to the outdoors. Would not return.

    Who knew our favorite Mexican place in Lakewood is also owned (partially) by the amazing folks who also own and manage Azteca?!?!?! Total score! This was a great way to end a perfect day on the mountain. And, as always, I way prefer authentic Mexican food to any other. The chips were crispy, loved the cabbage blend offered with our salsa and the house margarita? Perfect. We were treated to Chili Colorado - perfectly cooked chunks of beef lounging in a spicy (keto friendly) red sauce. And if your all about the carbs, you'll also appreciate their enchiladas - I had the Suizas variety (tomatillo sauce and sour cream), also very tasty! And once you're on a non keto kick, why not indulge and go for the flan. Yep, also yummy. So.... if you're near Winterpark or right next door in Fraser, you absolutely must stop!

    Yum. I usually get the Carne Asada plate. Mondays are cheap margarita days. Chips, service and atmosphere are great. Go here!
