    Seafood Chimichanga
    Nathan M.

    Mexico Lindo was a great Mexican restaurant. My family and I stopped by for lunch after horseback riding. It is attached to a minimart / gas station which dropped my expectations, but once inside I was very impressed. The decor was classic for a Mexican restaurant. They brought out a chips, salsa, and some bean dip which was very good. My daughter and I ordered margaritas, and spicy jalapeno and a top shelf frozen. Both were quite good. We also ordered the cheese queso to go with the chips. After over indulging in the chips our orders of chilaquiles, pork carnitas, and a seafood chimichanga. The food was also very very good and well seasoned. The wait staff was very attentive on getting our drinks, bringing chips, and taking our orders and were very nice in general. I would absolutely drop by for lunch or dinner again.

    So went to this Mexican lindo restaurant and I'm not a big fan of Mexican food but I went there for lunch with family and it was fantastic I had a steak fajitas. Great service excellent place to eat I give it a 9 out a 10

    Pasole - truly incredible
    Levi R.

    Wow truly incredible and so authentic like eating at your abuelas . . Sylvia (chef) and Gisele were so sweet. Take a chance to speak with them if you can the food is made with love. You don't get just chips and salsa when you come in you get a free serving of frijoles that is too die for with the chips and salsa. I've eaten here a couple times and always love the food. This time in particular I had the pasole and it was just too damn good. . . I had to leave a review. It was so well deserved. Give them a shot I know you will not be disappointed.

    The definition of a delicious mom & pop shop! Don't let this restaurant being attached to a gas station fool you (it almost got me) because this is some of the most delicious & authentic mexican food you'll have in Denver! I went with a group of 8 friends on NYE for dinner & didn't have to wait at all! Being from California, I've eaten at plenty of authentic mexican food restaurants and this had some of the best guacamole i've ever had! I wasn't a huge fan of the Mole sauce on my enchiladas, but it was still pretty tasty! Highly recommend getting some queso as an appetizer & using left overs on top of your dish! The portions sizes are large! You will leave very full & satisfied and have left over for the next day!

    Jalepeno Margarita!

    Stopped here after horseback riding in Conifer. Food was some of the BEST Mexican I have ever had, portions were super generous and excellent waitstaff!! Highly recommend the stop if you're driving thru!!!

    Margarita was meh.

    Popular spot. Glad we got there early for lunch. (11:30am) It got crowded right after. Friendly service. Looks like they're expanding maybe. Construction happening while we were there Thanksgiving week.

    This is everything it should be for a family run mexican joint at a gas station. All the negatives quickly turn to positives. Giselle works her tail off here. Hostess, waitress bartender...whatever needs to be done. This place is busy everytime we go here. Sit in a booth it's part of the experience when someone behind you sits in theirs....quite the ride. Don't be afraid of the prices. The portions are huge. A lot of people share one entree....think round turkey platter for a plate.

    This place is the best. Brought the whole family. Ensalata with Shrimp, Enchiladas, mole, chili relleno, chimichanga, and for you Regular Show fans - get the Mexican Shrimp cocktail (aka The Mississippi Queen) it is so good!

    I cannot tell you how many times we have flown by Mexico Lindo on 285 and said, "We should stop sometime but let's get closer to home to eat." I now say, "Why, did we not stop sooner." We arrived close to 2:00 and ordered from the lunch menu which included Chicken Mole (I ordered it). The husband ordered a pork burrito with red and green chili. I was pleasantly surprised when they brought out chips and salsa along with a small platter of bean/beef/queso dip. It is the small things that earn stars from me. Our meal arrived quickly by a smiling waitress, and it looked delicious. My mole was very good and served with rice and beans and handmade tortillas. The tortillias were a bit thick but nicely held together as a taco and the husband was pleased as well. I brought home leftovers for my dinner and the mole was even better. Mexico Lindo is easy on and off 285 if you are heading into Denver. It is next to a gas station but cute on the inside (Mexican carved wood furniture in bright colors.)

    Seafood enchilada.

    Great tasty food, PLEASANT FRIENDLY STAFF, clean all around. Authentic and the real deal!

    Best Mole in Colorado. I've been looking for 7 years and finally found it on the way home from the mountains! So good. Everything they served was truly amazing. Don't make the mistake of passing this place just because it's attached to a gas station. Mole Chicken Enchiladas. Service was as friendly as anyplace ever. We felt like we were on a trip to mexico. Perfect ambiance.

    Tacos Selene is a hidden gem near Denver Downtown!! It was located in one of the busy lanes over…read morelooking the beautiful downtown. As I walked in around 4 pm with family, we were the only ones in and then as the day progressed, more people came in for an early dinner! Clean, little rustic looking, Walls filled with fun graphics, kind staff, fun looking bathroom signs (women's) is how I will describe this restaurant. We ordered tacos - al pastor, carne asada, chicken, shredded beef, Adobada (pork without pineapple) and smothered marinated pork Burrito. Loved all the dishes and the clear winner for us was the Adobada meat (marinated pork). Every single bite was flavorful, juicy and tender. The seasoning was just right without it being overpowering. Both the Tacos and the gooey Burrito were filled with lots of meat - honestly, it was simple and satisfying without it being too greasy. Pricing was very affordable for the food portions and the food quality you get here. This is definitely an authentic spot you want to visit whenever you are in the mood to eat Mexican food - simple high quality food. Highly recommended and a spot I will always return to whenever I visit Denver next time.

    Ordered 30 tacos for takeout. Received a tray with meat, that was clearly not enough for 30. I was…read morealso told they didn't include salsas in my order and that I would have to fill my own from the salsa bar, which only had small individual cups. The girl was rude when I asked for a larger container so that I wouldn't waste my time filling all of them. Had I known the service would be like this I would have ordered from somewhere else.
