I had a theory when I lived in Phoenix that if you see bars on the window, then you know the food is going to be delicious. Staying in this part of town for the week I knew I had to stop by at some point to grab takeout. I'm glad I did! Authentic and delicious. The smell of the smothered burrito was the first thing I noticed when I opened the box. The burrito was perfectly sized and tasted amazing. I can in pretty close to closing time and the staff was still happy to see me and make the food. Will definitely stop in again when I'm in this side of town. read more

This place is awesome best breakfast burrito in town!! Always so nice and friendly too!

They have the best breakfast burritos in town! Affordable and tasty. The only complaint I have is that the breakfast burritos, even the egg and bean ones, all appear to contain some bacon or other pork product. This isn't a problem for me, but it is for folks who have pork sensitivity. read more

Always loved this place and it's right down the street. Even though I was across town today I drove half an hour to grab some lunch. This place is really that delicious. I spoke with the owner for a few minutes about the quality and price of some other restaurants in the area and thanked her for have good affordable authentic Mexican food that I can reliably get when I need it. I knew what I wanted as soon as I sat down and was glad that I was served really fast because I had somewhere to be. I usually can get my favorite spot right front of the bar, close to the restroom and under the AC. read more

I high key love the menudo. It's a cute hole-in-the-wall type of place, but that's how you know it's the best. The staff is super friendly. Honestly can't go wrong, fair price too. read more

This place was a delicious hole in the wall Mexican spot. The food is served fast and warm. Everything was delicious and the meat was tender. The burrito has a perfect ratio of everything. I loved their drink options and the variety of jarritos beverages. Our server was super friendly and attentive. This place is definitely worth the visit for any meal time. read more

La Fuente - Breakfast Burrito a la Mexicana with Meat - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

La Fuente has consistently been my very favorite breakfast burrito! And that's a hard ask with all our options on this side of town. Highlands/Sunnyside/Berkeley. I like mine with no potatoes, spicy and grilled. Wrapped to go with a glass coke. Always delicious and piping hot. Yummy!! They are super friendly too, very accommodating. Thank you for being a neighborhood staple, Le Fuente! read more

My friend and I fight over whether the breakfast burritos here or at Arujo's are better and she finally gave it to me. Consistently delicious. Freshly made. Family-run, friendly business that is super accommodating and very kind. Definitely worth a trip up Federal or a pit stop off I-70. read more

La Fuente opened their doors last year in January. They're legit. I've been on this burrito search for the ones that I can hold squarely in my hands and munch! Yeah the dry ones. ( I miss you). I succumbed to what CO burrito is; like an addict with no choice.. it's the smothered kind that you fork and knife and all that Jazz. Guess what? I'm starting to adapt and like it. It's not my first time mind you that's why I'm more docile in my review. After three years you would be too. This ones so good. I was told it's the green Chile factor. Yup I still don't know why 100% but it makes sense. It's the quality of the green chile! A-ha! Ok! This little mom n pops comes with parking on the side and they take APPLE PAY! Yeah yeah! They're clean and they are legit! Didn't I say that already? P.S they carry my fave menudo every day!! read more

Love this place , but the breakfast burritos have one sausage cut up into 4 small pieces in a big burrito filled with eggs and potatoes .

The outside doesn't look like much but once you step inside this place you are in for a real treat! what can I say other than this food was BUSSIN. Every single thing we ordered was made to perfection and the fact that everything was smothered in the scrumptious chili made it that much better...because wow. I can't wait to return to this establishment and try new items from the menu, which was quite diverse and had soooo many options. All I gotta say is...eat here asap if you're looking for the best authentic Mexican food at great prices. read more

Decent food but overpriced. Ordered two burritos and a Mexican Coke and it cost $30.00. I'd rather just go to a sit down restaurant.

Toddler taco tour 2019 stop 11! we have changed up our strategy for finding great taco places, we basically drive until we see one and we pull over and check the Yelp reviews to make sure that it is not infested with cockroaches. So we pulled over, and checked out this place oh, and there were no roaches reported. This means we are going to enjoy some tacos. The service here was fantastic, it's always a question mark when you roll in with a two-and-a-half-year-old, sometimes the service can be lukewarm. However, the waitress was very excited that our son is learning Spanish and loves tacos! We have for tacos two carnitas, and two a mixture of carne asada and chorizo, they were both fantastic oh, the horchata and rice and beans for the kiddo were delicious as well, definitely recommend this place as a nice hole in the wall Mexican joint! read more

La Fuente - Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I had a nice Beef and bean burrito to go, on my way to go to the airport. It wasn't too hot when I slurped it up at the terminal an hour later, but at least TSA lets you bring food through security. You can't take liquids, but you can take as many burritos as you want. And everyone knows that when you go to the West Coast you have to bring In-And-Out Burger back for all your friends, and you don't want to put burgers in checked baggage. The burrito was OK. read more

It may not look like much from outside but I head the rumor it has Denver's Best Breakfast Burrito & those that claimed that were absolutely right! I got the egg & cheese which was just $5 and then added potatoes and had it "deluxe" aka smothered - for $7. A total steal & very delicious. Very clean and bright inside & the people who work here are very nice! Salsa was awesome, can't wait to try more! read more

La Fuente definitely has the best breakfast burritos I've tried in Denver so far. Their salsas are bomb too but I do wish you could get more than 1 per burrito, but I get it. Their prices are good and you can pay a little bit for extra salsas. I've only ordered to go but they do have some seating inside. Great spot right on Federal and 44th! read more

Delicious breakfast burritos and friendly staff. They know how to operate a long line and still dish out hot and fresh burritos. I'd recommend if your hungry and want to spice up your morning! read more

One of the best Mexican restaurants in NW Denver. Small family run business that does an outstanding job. Try it.

3.5 rounded up to 4 stars The egg and chorizo breakfast burrito ($5) is a great deal. It's filling and tasty. Not mind blowing but solid. I also had a #5 combo which coles with a chile relleno, tamale, cheese enchilada and rice and beans. I thought the chile relleno and cheese enchilada were really good but the tamale was just okay and a bit dry. The rice and beans were standard. Overall I'd come again if I were in the mood for affordable Mexican food but I'm not in a rush to return with so many other Mexican options around. read more

I can't resist a mom and pop with high ratings. La Fuente fit the bill and it was a bit of a drive but I had to give them a try. Cute place with a family vibe. Small parking on the side of the restaurant, northwest corner of 44th and Federal. Service was very friendly; ordered takeout and took about 10 minutes. I am a sucker for Chile Relleno burritos but couldn't resist a pork tamale breakfast burrito smothered. Wife asked for Chile Rellenos...no surprise if you have read some of my reviews of various Mexican restaurants. It is practically the only thing she ever orders! Anyway, moving on.... Burrito was a good size. I love places that don't mix all ingredients of their breakfast burrito into a mush; discernible diced potatoes, eggs fried on the flattop, yolk cracked then allowed to cook into like an over hard egg. The pork tamale itself was flavorful. What I really enjoyed was they don't use salt as the source for flavor, if you know what I mean. Some lesser Mexican restaurants just cook everything seasoned with a lot of salt and mislead that to be "flavor". With La Fuente, each ingredient played its part in the overall flavor of the burrito. I would have liked more green chile and I forgot to ask for salsa which might have helped. Crispy Rellenos were solid. They are the wrapped variety where the stuffed chile is wrapped in like an egg roll wrapper then deep fried. Green chile sauce has a little heat to it so be aware. Sides of rice and beans were flavorful. Overall, smother breakfast burrito and the Chile Relleno platter came out to a little over $18.00, If I am in the area, it is definitely worth stopping by. read more

La Fuente - Breakfast burrito & eggs. - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I really come here with my friends, family And/or girlfriend at least 1 time a week. Usually on a Sunday. There breakfast burritos are 5$ across the board and for a small container of salsa, they have a hot, mild and a green salsa that is somewhere in between the mild and hot. SO DELICIOUS. Sometime I can't eat meat, so a nice breakfast green chile tamale burrito with eggs potato and cheese is perfect. I love this place because they are fast, consistent, and the owner always takes your order. She is so kind and knows us well now. She knows our regular orders and gives us a lot of salsas. I really feel like loyal to this place and call this, by far, the best breakfast burritos in Denver. Already craving my weekend morning trip down to La Fuente. read more

Delicious, authentic Mexican food. Their breakfast burritos are amazing! It's a regular morning spot, especially after a night of libations. We got the taco party platter for New Years and it was a big hit amongst our friends. The pozole reminded me of the home cooking I experienced while in Mexico. And their salsas are fire. But honestly, everything here is so good you can't go wrong. The staff is super friendly and really know their stuff. Support this local business next time you're craving Mexican! read more

La Fuente - Bacon breakfast burrito. So yummy. - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Breakfast Burrito, To-Go. Yes. Do it. Get the Hot Green Chile. I went with Bacon, but you can go with other meats. Yes. Yes. Yes. I love New Mexican-style Food. I love Green Chile. I love Red Chile. I really love Breakfast Burritos. If you think on it, a good Breakfast Burrito is the Ultimate Food: 1. Delicious. Check. 2. Protein. Eggs, Meat, ...more Meat. Check, possible another Check. 3. Spicy Chile. Check. 4. Some Carbs for Balance. Especially if you have some hard work or (better yet) hard rec in front of you that day. 5. Not Expensive. 6. Portable. I'm sure the rest of it is good. They had a good Breakfast Burrito, and it was super easy to swing by and get one of the best meals of my last visit. It gave me the strength to play some powerful yet still mediocre golf later that day. If I had two Breakfast Burritos, you know what I would have done? Dominate. Truth. read more

Your local Mexican go to. Great burritos, chili, and a giant michelada for a reasonable price. Add this to your rotation.

La Fuente is an inexpensive, terrific Mexican Restaurant. The women are so friendly and capable. Their green chili is terrific, the salsa has just the right heat, the chips could be warm.... I ordered the small combo with a smothered burrito, a tostada and a taco. Just delicious! They were served with lots of crunchy lettuce and tomatoes. My lunch partner ordered chicken burritos and said they were terrific. Easy parking right next door, fast service. We'll be back. read more

The food was excellent! Great food and great service. Was sitting behind a customer who told the waitress his food was cold she was very nice and asked to switch out his food and he declined. He then proceeded to eat the whole thing and when it came time to pay he asked for his food to be discounted. I believe he is one of those people who just want to receive a free meal. He was very rude and told her he was going to go post a Yelp review that would hurt the business. People like this should just stay at home and not make small business like this suffer because of their own self interest. Come try it for yourself I had the Carne Asada with a enchilada on the side it was all very good. read more

La Fuente - Best fajitas in Denver Highly recommended - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

TRY. THEIR BURRITOS. This place is so affordable and so tasty. Their beef and bean burrito is THE BOMB. And you have to order with chili. It just doesn't taste the same without the chili. Only, of course, if you can handle spice. It's got a kick to it. But oh my goodness.. so good. My husband ordered their 2 taco plate and was extremely satisfied. Thank you for amazing food, La Fuente. We'll be back. read more

La Fuente - Yes please. - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Food was bland with no spice or flavor. Each meal was close to $15 for small portions. I wouldn't return.

In the last year, since I discovered La Fuente by reading Yelp reviews talking about the best Mexican dishes in town, I have eaten approximately 25 more of their breakfast burritos. I have compared their version with highly touted burritos from a dozen or so other places, and I have come to the passionate conviction (!) that La Fuente makes the best breakfast burritos in all of Denver. I get their chorizo, eggs, beans and cheese version, with spicy chili inside, for the best $3.50 mobile breakfast in town. Of course, you could get it smothered with shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes and more chili, but I'd call that brunch or lunch; not a breakfast that you could eat on the way to work. Bottom line: If you can show me a place that makes a bettter one, I'll buy one of em for you. But if you try one from La Fuente and you change your mind and come to conclude that La Fuente does indeed make the best breakfast burrito in town, then you buy me one. Deal? (Nom nom. I think I may be eating lots of free Mexican food this year;). read more

Legit Mexican food. My boyfriend absolutely loves this place. He goes probably 3 times a week. I join every other week ;) He's such a regular that the staff knows his car and when they see him parking they are already preparing his burrito. His go-to is the breakfast steak burrito. I've gotten the vegetarian "a la Mexicana" breakfast burrito. This is great place for a quick take out food. They are SO FAST! When you sit down, service is way slower. read more

I'm giving La Fuente five stars based on two visits because they serve the best and most flavorful Tex-Mex food that I've had in Denver in a very long time. In my endless search for the perfect pig (as in pork burrito) I can happily say that the pork, bean, cheese and green chili burrito is as close to perfect as I can imagine. So simple, the ratio of beans to carnitas is heavily weighted on the side of the pig with just enough refritos to add texture and a different flavor. The pork is perfectly tender, moist and well seasoned. For $6.25 this "deluxe" burrito is big enough for two, or should I say big enough for lunch, followed by breakfast (yea!). The green chili is a classic Colorado style, not too thick but not runny. I go for half-n-half hot and mild which is just the right amount of heat (your lips will be tingling with delight afterwords). Very attentive and friendly service in a clean and pleasant atmosphere - I love the music in Español in the background. I hear La Fuente has great breakfast burritos - I can't wait... read more
