The ladies split the chilaquiles, and declared them excellent. The guys had the chorizo breakfast burrito, which was tasty, but with a bit too much cheese and a bit too much chorizo for the mix (which may be just my taste). The green chili served over the burrito was quite nice. SERVICE: Tony (I presume) was friendly and helpful. Service was a little slow -- he seemed to be juggling a lot -- but we weren't in a great hurry. AMBIANCE: It's not posh. Based on the sign, it's been there for decades. But it's clean and straightforward. NET-NET: Good food, decent surroundings and service. If opportunity presents, we'll definitely be back.

Obviously it looked popular, so we decided to wait. But within about 10 minutes the entire wait area had been seated, as were we. Great start! The staff was really moving fast - some practically running - to serve food and drinks. The chips were good, homemade salsa was awesome and plentiful - more was offered while we waited for our food to arrive. We had the chicken enchiladas favoritas, and a vegetarian combo. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere is fun and laid back. Staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We'll be returning soon!

I think we ordered literally everything on the menu, and to a person we liked what we received. One of the few places that makes a really good Horchata drink, so if you like those order one. It wasn't that lively in there, but it was a Wed so not a big night out for most people. Their steak meals were a clear standout - everyone liked everything, but those got raves. Also, bacon-wrapped shrimp were great - good sized and grilled so they still had a snap to them. The downsides: it took a long time for food to come out, although some of that probably can be attributed to us being a big group. That said, several waited for, and eventually had to ask for, the tortillas that went with their meals. Our servers spoke little english, so sometimes communications were difficult, but ALWAYS friendly. I would definitely go back.

It comes with the typical side spread of refried beans, rice, sour cream, lettuce, and Pico de Gallo. I wasn't impressed with this side plate. Lettuce seemed old. The refried beans and rice seemed canned. The chips and salsa were good (not great). I liked the fajitas stir fry. That was above average. Service was average as well. There is plenty of seating in the dining area. The dining area is clean as well. The ambiance was okay. Nothing that really stood out to have a lasting impression on me. When returning to Westcliffe, I would consider dining here. However, I would try to plan the trip where I would dine in Canon City. They have a better selection of restaurants. Overall, I had an average experience here. Nothing special. If you're visiting Westcliffe, I would check them out. Manage your expectations though.

We were immediately greeted by friendly staff, who seated us promptly and gave us 2 generous baskets of chips along with 2 types of salsas. As we were deciding on food, we also got a bowl of corn elote which was amazing! A crispy relleno is what I order at all Mexican restaurants to gauge how much I like the food, and this place didn't disappoint! One of the best rellenos I've had, and the green chili was fantastic. The rest of the party was very happy with their meals, as well, which included shrimp Enchiladas, tacos, combos, and nachos. All fresh, authentic, and delicious! And even the kids hamburger was a nice, thick patty with lettuce and tomato. Our party also had the house marg and the Sanchez, and both were well-balanced and not over-priced. Highly recommend! On top of it all, Santiago, our server, was so amazing. Friendly, very attentive, and patient with us all as we practiced our Spanish. Couldn't have asked for a better Mexican restaurant.

They were honest about what was good and what wasn't and we needed up with cheap margs and great food. I had the Herradura Trio which was exceptional amount of food for the price and cooked perfectly. Definitely worth the price and too much for one sitting. Lots of leftovers if that's your thing. The taco and enchilada combo was good too especially if you are not THAT hungry. Chips and salsa were great. Bottomless. So is the soda. We had HH margs for $7.50 that got us buzzed fast.
