We have been here several times before the pandemic as well as Lyons but as this pandemic continues to linger are visits have been fewer and fewer we visited just after the Vaccines were released late spring 2021 then again last Oct so last night we decided to order togo and the flavor and passion we once cherished has disappeared and I'm not just referring to last night but since the pandemic started. Sorry but we will start looking for another new favorite Good Luck read more

Great authentic Mexican food and great service.the outside patio was very nice. The special menu was yummy.

Just great. Similar prices to popular and trendy taco places on Pearl Street, but much further reaching when it comes to flavor, variety, service and attention. Be sure to try the elote, short rib taco, and the fried ice cream dessert. Food is fantastic. Servers are unbeatable. read more

I like Mojo's! I always get very friendly service. So glad Max is holding down the bar! There's also some new faves- John, Devon, and a brand new gal- I think she's Julie (maybe). The food is actually better than it was pre-Covid. So if you didn't like it before, give them another try. The torta is kind of a hidden gem- totally recommend. If you are in the mood to chat- sit at the bar- patrons are friendly. Check out Happy Hour! read more

First time at Mojo's on a Monday eve. The place was busy, but not totally packed and after waiting a few minutes, we were seated outside. We ordered chips/guac/salsa and it was great. The mild green salsa is delicious. We then ordered two tacos each - five different between the three of us. Fish, fried avocado, buffalo cauliflower, Korean short rib and carnitas. All were delicious. Service was friendly if not super snappy. A slight bit too casual - "oh, hey, what's up?" kind of a thing. That's a bit nit picky, to be sure. We will definitely be back! Thanks. read more

Absolutely scrumptious tacos, splendid guacamole and freshly made chips to go along with the guac. Wait staff were friendly and knew exactly what to recommend. Would recommend 100%! read more

Its nice and clean but the food is mediocre. If you want real authentic food go elsewhere.

The food was so delicious and the service was amazing. They definitely made it to our favorites list.

We just finished eating here and I feel like I've died and gone to heaven. The elote was incredible and the short rib burrito was delicious. I'd post pictures but I got too excited and started eating - maybe next time! The hostess gave us an accurate wait time and our waitress was super charming, even giving some feedback about menu choices. We will absolutely be back. PS - as per usual before writing my review I took a curious spin through the low ratings and I have to wonder where those people were eating for $13-15 a plate and getting more food. While I agree I've been to less expensive establishments, the quality of meats, salsas, cheeses (Oaxaca and asadero!) and the obvious care in preparation makes this well worth it - and I'm stuffed. read more

We had one good dish and three different bad burritos. The torts was quite good, but all three burritos were filled 80% with rice! Not acceptable. I would be tempted to order a burrito with no rice and see what happens. I know costs have gone up, but you really can't serve a rice burrito! Come on.... read more

Maybe we've been here too often (approx. 3x year)...but this last visit I felt distinctly underwhelmed by the food for what the prices were. We go out pretty infrequently in general, and I think this leads me to be pickier about the restaurant experience. When they initially opened up their doors for business, we were enthusiastic about the food and ambiance. A few years later feels like it needs a hard reset. read more

Off my list. First off happy hour ends too early - 5:30. Secondly, it's the standard practice for Mexican restaurants to give you chips and salsa to snack on while you wait to place and receive your order. Not so here - cost you $4.00. Thirdly - asked for salt on the rim of our margaritas. Didn't get any. Also very stingy portions. read more

Mojo Taqueria Boulder - Tacos Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

So I been coming here for years with my family. For a longtime this place was one of my favorites but the last few months this place has fallen off a cliff. The last two times I was in there I didn't get acknowledged for about 15 minutes at least; I know the second time it took them 20 minutes to finally come over (looked at my phone) and ask if I was ready to order, but they didn't even give me a menu to order. It wasn't busy at all either maybe they just don't like that I don't order alcohol? The food here is great but the service has been so bad ever since one of the managers moved on, and some of the solid waitresses moved on as well. Its like a bunch of teens running a restaurant, and if they are treating myself and my family this way (who are regulars) god knows what kind of service others are getting. Anyways I don't think ill be going back sucks to lose this place cause we live right down the way but I rather go somewhere where the staff treat me with respect and acknowledge my presence. Also they got rid of the happy hour tacos everything has been raised price wise... read more

First time here. Great ambiance, outdoor seating, excellent menu. Everything we got was delicious! But the elotes was TO DIE FOR! read more

Mojo Taqueria Boulder - Carnitas taco, braised short rib taco, and fish taco. Elotes that were off the charts amazing! - Tacos Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Totally impressed by the food and the service! For a new restaurant, they had a pleasantly attentive waitstaff, the food came out quick, the drinks were greatand it was DELICIOUS. The only disappointment I have with Mojo is that they're not open for brunch, too! Update: THEY DO BRUNCH NOW read more

Very good so far. Went twice and each time had the vegetarian burrito with a very good smothered sauce. This place has good value, the food is tasty and you are not overcharged. Only the chips with salsa and guacamole are somewhat expensive with $10 (portion not being that big), but a burrito for $10.50 is well priced. Also had fish taco's which were very good as well. I highly recommend checking this place out. At this point it is my choice over Murphy's across the parking lot, where I have gone for many years. It is also MUCH better than Tangerine next door which also does lunch, but they don't even have avocado's, only some poorly made guacamole attempt (good for breakfast though, they have Gouda for omelettes). read more

Mojo Taqueria Boulder - Smothered burrito. - Tacos Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Happy hour was great. The margaritas went down easy, and the food choices were delicious and well prepared. The waitress came around just enough to be helpful but not so much to be annoying. Worth a place to check out if you want Mexican food leaning on the gourmet side. read more

Great food, service and everything down to people music and even the chairs. I eat at Lyons often and I love this restaurant just as much. I would definitely recommend whether you live in Lyons or are just stopping by. read more

If I could give a zero I would. 12 people walked out due to never getting acknowledged. Waited to be seated for 20 minutes lots of empty tables. Then some young girls get in the back of the line and waive down the waiter and give him hugs and giggles and get immediately seated. Sorry your food in not good enough to be treated this way. read more

Had dinner here for the second time last night -- the first was soon after it had opened -- and was glad to see it packed with patrons. You never know if a new place is going to take off or not, but I would say this one has! As with the previous time, my friend and I sat at the bar and got helpful recommendations from the bartender on their impressive variety of tacos. We had tacos, guac and chips, all of which were tasty. The coin margs were delish also. Everything is reasonably priced. I live in the neighborhood and look forward to making this a regular spot. read more

Mojo's has the best taco's in Boulder imo. The chips and salsas (which you can chose from several ranging on the spice level) Also, tasty margaritas too Plus the fried ice cream and churros are both delicious desserts read more

So happy Mojos in Boulder is fully open now, though ensuring their customers and staff feel safe. We are thrilled to see familiar (albeit masked) faces there and that we can sit at the bar again. Welcome back Max! We missed you and so happy to see you behind the bar again! read more

Veggie enchiladas were great - 4 stars The gauc was the worst I've had in a long time - it was so sour, but didn't taste like fresh lime - I'm not sure where the flavor was coming from. Skip tha guac - 2 stars read more

Waited 25 minutes extra for an online order placed 30 minutes prior for cold mediocre food.

Really good food. Guacamole was super fresh. Service was welcoming and the seating was comfortable.

Mojo Taqueria is one of my favorite restaurants in Boulder. Customer service is stellar. The food is amazing. I've had the enchilada multiple times, tacos, and the chips and guacamole. I'd get them all again, but the enchilada will always be my favorite. I would literally bathe in the avocado salsa. Be sure to make a reservation to ensure you get a table. Great indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Tried this place for the first time, and I am here to tell you they dont disappoint. From the excellent friendly service to fantastic food. I had 3 tacos: fried avocado, grilled fish, and butternut squash... all were excellent and I will definitely be back!! read more

Mojo Taqueria Boulder - Tacos Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

See all

This place is the home of my absolute favorite burrito in all of Colorado - the Short Rib Burrito. The burrito is huge, but not messy and disorganized. It is loaded with succulent short rib, rice, beans, pico de gallo, and chipotle aioli, but the star is the crispy fried onions that add a wonderful oniony crunch to every bite. Add red sauce, green sauce, or queso fundido on the side for drizzling and you're all set. read more

Love this place. Margs are on point, vibes are great. Everything I've ordered I enjoyed. Plus, love the Friday themes! Pretty sure if you follow them on IG and dress up for the theme you get a discount. read more

Awesome spot to stop by for great tacos and even better service! Staff was friendly, fast and considerate. Nate helped us out and was very polite! Tacos were prepared to perfection, really great flavor. Definitely will stop again! read more

Excellent food and service! Very friendly staff and an amazing menu. Very cute atmosphere, too!

Excellent food. Yucca fries perfect. The shrimp bacon taco was so good i took a bite and then hollered, "if this is sinning, baby, take me straight to hell!" read more

Great food with plenty of flavor and spice, plus yummy margs! We've been here twice and everyone in our group loved it.

Mateo was the most impressive part of our experience at an already amazing restaurant! Ask for him to be your server! Finally we have a great taco restaurant in north Boulder! read more

Went for 'soft opening' weekend. It exceeded our expectations -- great food, great margaritas! Happy to have them in the neighborhood. We will be back soon! read more

My initial impression of Mojo was that it's a very charming place. It has a fresh, modern interior with plenty of comfortable seating and a spacious bar with a great selection of Mezcal and Tequila. We sat on the patio which has enough shelter to make it feel like your not sitting right next to the parking lot without losing the feeling that you're outside enjoying the fresh air. Our server was very nice and helpful with suggestions. I had the torta with the short rib and it was absolutely delicious. Tender ribs, soft fluffy bread, fresh crunchy slaw and tangy sauce. The fish tacos were crisp and delicious but the carnitas taco was so saucy it made the tortilla fall apart so we decided to skip that one next time. All in all had a great experience and would absolutely recommend it as a spot worth checking out. read more

My boyfriend and I seriously can't stop going to this spot. We love everything about it! We are actually going tonight for our date night, before we head to the Fox. This will be the 3rd time in 2 weeks time haha I am a HUGE fan of the fried avocado taco. He loves the smothered short rib burrito. The watermelon tequila bev was really great too. They've got specials and happy hour throughout the week. Cute story behind the restaurant too! Can't say enough good things at the moment. The queso offering is nice too, not all Mexican/Tex mex places offer it. And, we love some queso. read more

We had our first meal at Mojo's this evening. I am already planning my meal for next time. They have a great selection of inventive tacos. I had three, the korean BBQ, Fried Avocado, and calabazas - all delish! Yummy cocktail, "smokey and sweet." Service was friendly and prompt. VERY reasonable prices (given how things are going these days in restaurants). I highly recommend. My husband said, "this is our new go-to place." read more

This is a Mexican restaurant well worth exploring. The service was very attentive and double checked menu choices with us to be sure we would be satisfied and offered appropriate selections. The roasted tomatillo salsa was nice and smoky-spicy but a little heavy on the vinegar. The taco specials are a good deal but are much smaller than conventional, artfully prepared and tasty, although the shaved ahi tuna had a couple of pieces on a heavy dose of slaw. The beans and rice were very good and were presented in a separate container. If you are used to the standard Mexican restaurant with heavy sauces, good drowning in cheese presented en masse, this is not your place. Somehow I feel this is closer to gourmet Mexican cuisine and really appreciated the skill of the chef. Only a few tweaks to greatness needed. read more

Grilled tacos were great! Wonderful ambiance. Although, I must say one of my favorite parts of the whole dining experience was washing my hands in the restroom with the Pangaea Canadian Pine and White Sage hand soap. It was almost as life changing as the tacos. Thank you for stocking your restaurant with the best of the best--from the food to the soap. read more
