Burrito Supreme and a Stuffed Sopapilla!
Harry M.

A Stuffed Sopapilla Quest Worth Every Mile My wife and I visited La Casa Del Rey tonight, and what a fantastic experience it was from start to finish. My wife first saw La Casa Del Rey mentioned on Facebook, specifically calling out their stuffed sopapillas. She absolutely loves stuffed sopapillas and hasn't found a place that serves them in a long time, so naturally we had to investigate. We decided to turn the outing into a little micro-adventure. We set off from Central City on a quest for stuffed sopapillas, navigating rush hour traffic through the Denver metro area before finally arriving in Commerce City--and let me tell you, it was completely worth it. Right away, we were impressed. The restaurant is very well maintained, with attractive landscaping and a private parking lot. Upon entering this family-owned establishment, we were joyfully greeted and promptly seated. The greeter was high-energy, warm, and genuinely welcoming, immediately setting the tone for the evening. Our drinks arrived quickly, along with delicious chips and salsa. I also have to give special praise to our waitress--she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and kind. When we mentioned that we'd come all the way from Central City after seeing the restaurant on Facebook, she truly made us feel appreciated and welcome. With authentic mariachi music playing in the background, we looked over the menu and noticed a wide selection of great-looking dishes--but let's be honest, we were there for the stuffed sopapillas. We ordered one shredded chicken and one carne asada, both with beans inside (which, in my opinion, is the only way to go). My wife chose the medium green chili, and I went with the hot. The stuffed sopapillas were everything we hoped for. Absolutely delicious--fantastic flavor in both the chicken and the carne asada (yes, we shared). They were so good that we ordered a third stuffed sopapilla to go to split the next day. That should tell you everything you need to know. Even though we were completely full and satisfied, we couldn't resist grabbing an order of dessert sopapillas to go as well. We just didn't want the experience to end. From the moment we walked in the door until the moment we left, we loved everything about our visit. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food in a family-owned restaurant that makes you feel genuinely welcome and ensures you leave happy and full, La Casa Del Rey is a must-visit. We will absolutely be back, there are a lot of other dishes that we will need to try!

Charges for green chili DONT COME it says smothers but they charge!?!? Trash never again!!

Very nice dining area appropriately themed for a Mexican restaurant. I met up with my friends and we ate dinner here. I ordered steak and shrimp fajitas. It was delicious! Our waitress was nice but didn't know that sour cream & guacamole came with the fajitas. I got charged $3.00 for about 2 tablespoons of guacamole, let alone another few bucks for the sour cream. And guess what the meal came with it already. We ended our meal with some sopapilla. Overall, great experience.

This is my first visit, and I left feeling very happy, very full and content at the ambience that was in this restaurant.... Service was excellent. We were seated immediately brought chips and salsa asked for our drink order as we wait for third-party to show up. I ordered the shrimp and steak fajitas. They came out, perfectly cooked steaming up the whole dining room as the waitress brought it to my table. I like the decorations inside it helped create the Casa Del Rey motto. We really enjoyed ourselves. We plan on checking it out again so if you're ever in the area and you've never tried it stop by you won't be disappointed. Thanks For The Read Until Next Time...

Combination plate with a side of chicharrones
Teri V.

Has potential, but really needs to work on the house salsa. As a first impression, it was very watery with big chunks of tomatoes, not very appealing. Margaritas need a lot of work, ordered the Patron special, they were of Patron, gave some other type of tequila, but tased like there was zero alcohol so not worth the price. The La Casa favorite had no red chili flavor to it. The green was OK, a little more flour flavor than chili. Just not sure we would come back for the price and knowing that El Jardin is down the street.

Corona-Rita
Dee-Dee W.

First time here and I loved it! There's an area to sit outside but we sat inside since it was super hot. Chips and salsa were brought to the table when we sat down. I got a the corona-rita and my friend got a house margarita with a steak chimichanga. Everything came fast and was fresh. The server was super nice. Some of the bad reviews are from takeout so I'll make sure I dine in when I have a taste for it again.

Pollo asada, Chicken,  rice, beans, avocado,  and picco
James V.

Located in Commerce City, close to Quebec and 72nd Ave. Casual dining with a full bar. We have been here numerous times and even celebrated my Wife's birthday in January here. They will accommodate large parties but you may have to give them some time we called ahead and gave them some notice but they don't take reservations as far as I know. Do offer patio seating as well. One of the reasons I like to go here is the smothered chicken fried steak I can't say I know of another restaurant that offers this dish. They have a large selection of different items including some seafood. The green chili is hit and miss as far as temp goes, I've had it to where it was crazy hot and I almost always order it hot and last nights chili was really more on the mild side. The mod asked how the chili was I explained my mild disappointment in the chili and he apologized profusely and offered to send some extra hot home with us and I declined. He did explain they switched chili vendors and were not happy with the chili and would be going back to thier previous one. And one last thing and truly this is a huge part of why we keep going back to this restaurant is the customer service. We were watching the manager interact with the customers as the were ordering to go food and picking up thier orders and he held casual conversations with them and seemed genuinely interested. He even carried a older ladies order out to here car for her even when she said it wasn't necessary. Those are little things that we get our business every time. So give this place a chance you may like you may not but we definitely haven't ever had a bad experience her and if you do let them know they will make it right!

Chile Relleno Plate Bean and Cheese Burrito
Taylor T.

While our experience wasn't bad, it wasn't great either. If you're looking for an authentic Mexican restaurant, there's a much better place down the road. This was our first visit. We went during dinner time and they weren't busy! We were seated immediately and the staff were friendly and services were fast. I ordered the chile relleno's plate and a bean and cheese burrito. The chile relleno's are not your typical stuffed peppers. Mine appeared to be rolled like taquitos and instead of being stuffed with white cheese, it looked like they used the same shredded Mexican cheese inside as on the top. Unfortunately to top it off, my dish was still cold in random spots and only ate half of it. Everything is covered in green chile, whether you ask for it or not. Salsa and chips were served on the house. But if you order a side dip like guacamole as we did (which my husband and I thought was bland and needed more salt and lime), keep in mind it's about $7 for a serving the same size of the salsa. We only had 1 glass of water the whole dinner time. We were only asked if we wanted a refill only when we were getting ready to leave.

Beef and Shrimp Sizzling Fajita
Dan S.

I'm having a hard time justifying 4 stars, but that's possibly because I should have gone with my usual and not trying something different. Service : we sat down and within a minute chips and salsa were brought to the table and our drink order was taken. About a minute a later our waitress came to the table and was ready to take our order. 5 stars for service. Ambiance- not going there for the ambiance. The restaurant was clean and I would give it 4 stars. Food: got the steak and shrimp fajitas. They were not sizzling at all, so not sure where the sizzle went. There wasn't much steak and what was on the plate was cut super thin. Wish there would have been bigger pieces of meat or more. My meal I would give a 3.75. Not bad, but not great. I will definitely go back to Casa Del Rey, but stick with the enchiladas or the shrimp rancheros.

Churro Sopa Sundae
Ed D.

This place has a lot of seating and I like the decor. The food itself was ok but our waitress Lexi was awesome. She was super friendly and so attentive. We ordered the chicken enchiladas and chicken fajita taco salad along with orchata and casa loca cocktail. We liked the food and drinks but it tasted like average Mexican from other restaurants we've tried. Really the service set this restaurant apart...thanks Lexi!

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.

The salsa we received was a green and a red and they were full flavored delicious! I ordered two tacos a la carte: Apple Cilantro Steak and Braised Short Rib. The tacos arrived quickly, were delicious. Especially the Apple Cilantro Steak. Note that the tacos are street taco sized. This means smallish at around 4-5" inches each. Nice that they are double tortilla wrapped. Our waitress checked in with us a couple times to make sure we had everything we wanted. We will likely return.

When the weather is nice, the patio seating is a nice bonus and adds to the laid-back vibe. I didn't see any happy hour specials on either food or drinks, but the margaritas are reasonably priced, especially the house margarita. They seem to be best known for their taco plates, but I went with one of the bowls instead. While it tasted quite delicious, the portion size felt a bit light for the price; I had this same concern looking at all the online photos of the tacos, too. Service was friendly and straightforward: just walk in and seat yourself. The bar area has plenty of TVs, perfect for if you want to watch a game. It would be perfect if they had happy hour specials. I would maybe explore your options if you want good value, but it's a nice casual place that's worth a stop if you're craving what their menu has.

I wanted a burger he wanted to sit down meal and we ended up at the Moonlight Diner. Walking into the diner is like a step back in time. The decor is 1950s memorabilia with chrome touches and leather wrapped seating. It's everything you would think a diner would be but the food is so much more. They have a full bar as well as dairy treats, including shakes and malts. They also have breakfast all day and love their pancakes. They also serve barbecue. But I went for the patty melt. And my other half went for breakfast. His breakfast was the mountain man breakfast and was full of meats, eggs hashbrowns, and Ken with pancakes, but he opted for English buffet instead. It also came with a side of toast. It was a very ample breakfast. My patty melt sure did hit the spot. It was a perfectly medium cooked hamburger on rye with cheddar, and Swiss melted with grilled onions and thousand island dressing. Instead of fries, I went for the mashed potatoes and gravy. It was comfort food to the max. My date also got the peanut butter shake. He slurped that down in a hot minute. He said it was wonderful. He offered me a taste at least twice before I noticed it was gone. There's also meatloaf on the menu as well as a pulled pork barbecue Frito pie and they have a Frito pie burger. They also serve meatloaf. They have several classics and several twists. I recommend going there. There's something for everyone.

Stopped by and we were seated right away and place was clean and the diner was pretty simple than the other ones ive been too so far :). Menu offered a whole variety of breakfast classics as well as burgers/handhelds and milkshakes which ive still yet to tried. Decaf coffee was good, I could drink it multiple times, will definetely order next time. Sweet Potato fries were really delicious and the steak flavor was okay, but atleast it was still tender/cooked perfectly, just wished it punch more but not bad. Mash potato was pretty disappointing. Patty melt was perfect and fries that came with it were perfect. HUGE PORTION TOO!! Ive also ordered a side of Mac which was also reallyyyy good. Service was fast and we were checked on plenty of times and the lady was nice. .. Pretty simple, nothing really over the top, but otherwise satisfied belly and will come back if craving more
