Fantastic. A side of guacamole is only a $1!!!!! We stumbled upon this place after atv'ing and it hit the spot. The chips and trio salsa was fun. Each salsa was completely different, so happy we got to try 3 rather than just 1. My husband and I eat got tacos. The short rib taco with fried onions was incredible. All the tacos are stuffed with meat, and are very filling. We also each got margarita off the very unique margarita list. I love mezcal and they have several mezcal options. I went with the elote smash, it was strong but fun with the basil. I'd recommend this place and would come back if we were in the area again. read more

Wait was insane. Seated right away then 20 min before drink order was taken. Waiter came back w wrong drinks. Didn't bring salsa with chips waited an hour for food. Out of everything. I understand Covid related issues with restaurants but this was ridiculous read more

The food was delicious as well as the service! A few in our party had to eat gluten-free and we were advised as to what was safe and what wasn't. Some items that are gf on the menu may share a fryer with non-gf items, but that was made very clear. The tacos were amazing! We will definitely be back! Thanks for taking care of us. read more

Awesome food and service. The fried Yucca was awesome, I think it was air fried, not deep fried in grease. Our whole party of 5 were quite satisfied with our choices. Lots of Gluten free options read more

Wonderful place! We stopped here on Sunday afternoon after hiking in RMNP. It also happened to be happy hour! Service was great, we got our food really fast and everything was perfect. We will be back! read more

Fabulous food. Helpful staff. Positive atmosphere. Never disappointed!!!

I can't say enough about our fortuitous stop here. Most places closed on Mondays, we thought, oh well, let's head to Lyons on the way home to Estes. So, seeing all the folks hanging outside here, we did a quick pull in, & we were delighted. The margaritas were phenomenal (no, that did not influence this review like you're thinking) but the service was tops! Then, the tacos are SO not your normal tacos! OMG, every single one we tried was seasoned so differently; the flavor, the presentation, oh my! If i were YOU, heading up to Rocky Mountain NP, where there are ONLY tourist restaurants serving fast food, I would definitely STOP HERE!!! You'll be glad you did, and planning for a return visit! read more

I really enjoyed my meal and beer on the patio after a long hike. Great food, drinks, service and location.

Some of the best tacos in Boulder County. Great margaritas too! The ambiance is wonderful-makes me feel like I'm back in a surf town in Mexico. read more

We came across this restaurant on our way to Estes Park, and were blown away with the quality and flavors of all the dishes. We are originally from Texas, and have high standards for Mexican. This place destroys most of our favorites in Texas. From the amazing salsas and yuca, to the salads, tacos, and desserts, everything was a 10. We enjoyed it so much that we returned for dinner a few nights later. The staff in each instance was friendly and attentive, and the price for the quality was a bargain. Don't miss visiting Mojo when in the area! read more

Stylish interior, very friendly service, tasty chicken tortilla soup, drinks and tacos, and the food came out quickly. All this even though we showed up 30 minutes before closing. It was a bit pricey and I hate places that don't provide chips and salsa for free, but we walked away happy. Just a half block away from a dispensary too, in case you are in the mood :) read more

I wasn't starving. Most go into it hungry and can eat dirty booty through a park bench. That wasn't the case here. The food was terrific. The burrito was such a culinary treat with sneaky lil fried onions. Pair this restaurant with a Haunted Tour at the Stanley and you have yourself a fine evening. Tall man who resembles Mr. Clean was the perfect server! read more

This restaurant has amazing food! We stopped here for lunch on our way back from Estes Park. My family ordered chips and salsa and it was yummy! I ordered a steak burrito w/red sauce and surprised at how big it was. I can't eat spicy food due to stomach issues, but forgot to tell the waiter. When I started eating my burrito I bit into a piece of jalapeño and my mouth was on fire. Unfortunately, I couldn't eat anymore. Our waiter, Camden, asked why I wasn't eating and I told him it was too spicy. He was so nice that he went to the kitchen and told the chef to make me a new burrito without any spice or pico de Gallo. He wanted to make sure I left Happy! I was impressed this establishment was willing to make me a new meal. I would definitely eat here again!! read more

What an awesome place to eat. I had the short rib taco and Baja Fish taco. They were the best I've ever had. Our party of 6 all had excellent food. Definitely recommended!!!! Great service too!! read more

My favorite Margaritas and tacos anywhere! I'm from New Orleans. I can only come here when I'm on vacation.

Loved this place. Super good unique tacos. I had three different ones, a butternut squash taco, pulled pork and I think a mostly avocado one. All were super delicious. Chips and salsa are very good. Had a nice watermelon margarita. Delicious. Service was also very good. Dessert were small Canolis. read more

See all

The food here is delicious! I had the Short Rib burrito. It was not only tasty but care was obviously taken in presentation. The Horchata and Fundido were also well done. The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. You will not regret the decision to eat here. read more

Quality staff, service, food, and cleanliness! We had a great meal here after spying it on the road from RMNP. Looks like they have a strong local following, so you know that Mojo is doing it right. read more

Great food and service. Chill place to eat at after a day hiking. Good happy hour from 3-6 and is really good.

Wanted to try this place last time we drove through but ended up skipping it. That was a mistake. This place has amazing food and the salsa is awesome! They were out of 2 of my choices for tacos but the ones I ended up with were delicious. I just wish I could eat more so I could've tried the rest of them. My husband had the enchiladas and really enjoyed them as well. Definitely a place to come back and try the rest of the food. read more

It's okay. My wife and I went there for dinner. The tacos, despite the tasty menu description, were surprisingly bland of flavor. It was an extra $4 for a side of pinto beans and rice. This side dish was meager in its size and uninteresting in taste. read more

Love the happy hour. This place delivers a nice selection of gourmet-esc tacos! Well worth a visit.

I stopped in for lunch on the way to Estes Park. What a magnificent surprise. The salsas we got with the chips were unique and flavorful. We had mango-habanero, dos chiles and avocado-tomatillo. The fantastic server brought us her favorite to try, the jalapeño, and it was also great. We both had carnitas burritos smothered in green sauce and it was among the best burritos I've ever had. All ingredients were fresh and full of good flavor. Definitely five stars snd my new go to place when I go through Lyons!! read more

We came in with a large group of 9 today for lunch and we couldn't have been happier with this spot. The staff went out of their way to accommodate our group, the service was outstanding and the food cannot be beat. Thanks so much, MoJo, we'll certainly be back! read more

Wow! So much more than I expected. In a tourist town they come and go but these guys brought their "A" game! Their Margaritas were tasty. Had for the first time the Lengua taco and to my surprise I was my favorite. The Nacho's... Best in Lyons! I lean towards a great Happy Hour and they slayed it! Been here 30 years, not related, not associated. Just surprised enough to place my first post. Do yourself a favor read more

Love it. Gluten free if you are or know someone. Great service, clean restrooms. Best Mexican food around. Fun spot. Coin margaritas are excellent. Great Food! read more

I like Mojo. I wish they would change their menu. I am tired of eating the same food, as good as it is. The restaurant is the best in Lyons, in my opinion. read more

Wow, this place was great! I'm not a huge Mexican food person but the tacos were perfect. I got the Grilled Mahi and the Korean one and both were very good. This is a great place to stop while in Lyons. read more

Giving them another six weeks we tried Mojo again. Excellent! Great flavor for all starting with the chips and salsa! Everyone enjoyed their tacos and was quite surprised by extra tacos because Mojo believed we hadn't been served the right ingredients. Great! On the minus was the margs. Testing two different grades of offerings came up with the same result, below average. We'll be back and encourage anyone who hasn't tried Mojo to give them a try! read more

This is a super cute, well laid out, casual and airy restaurant and we got in just before closing. The waitress wasn't put off by our late arrival as long as we got our dinner order in by 9pm. We started off with a glass of red wine for one of the diners and a blood orange margarita for the other. The rest opted for water. The menu is hard to pick from because everything sounds interesting and delicious. Even a Korean inspired taco. They offer a two or three taco combo with rice and beans or ala carte. Beans are a choice of black beans and beans that had been cooked with I believe a little fatback, I can't quite remember what she said. I tried both and I have to say I preferred the black beans. The rice was not like traditional Spanish rice as it had no tomato or very little. It had not been friend well. Probably healthier. All the tacos were fabulous and I had a hard time remembering which taco was which but the Korean/kal bi taco was out of this word. The grilled fish was delicious too but broke apart in my hand as the fish was runny with sauce or juice. 'Service was very pleasant and our waitress was attentive but not hovering. 'Having no room for desserts as usual, we skipped that menu. We had take home boxes for tomorrow's lunch and everyone left in a good mood. We did happen to be the last to leave but never did they cause us to feel like we were intruding on their closing procedures which were going on around us... like filling salt shakers and such. Lyons is an easy town to navigate and it's on the right side of the road if you're heading west into Lyons. There is a small parking lot in front. Go here, you'll like it. There's more than just tacos too... burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, appetizers, soups, salads and more. Prices are in the $4-5 for 1 taco to $20 range. read more

So grateful to the friend who tipped us off about this gem in Lyons!!! It's a bit of a drive for us, but worth it! This is hands-down the best Mexican restaurant in the Lyons, Boulder and Longmont areas. Mojo's food has been consistently outstanding. Their service has been consistently outstanding. We also love their "open air" atmosphere on warm, sunny days. Even more impressive, the owner (who'd never seen us before) stopped by our table to say hello ask us if we were happy with everything and if there was anything he could do for us. Thoughtful owners of small, local businesses get BIG gold stars from us! We heard that another Mojo restaurant may be coming closer to our usual stomping grounds in the Boulder area; we sure hope that's true! read more

Stopped here on our way to Estes Park. Wanted a quick and small lunch just cause of the time of day we stopped. Our waitress was very sweet and friendly! In terms of the food, tried the chipotle salsa... outta this world! Then my husband and I tried three tacos to share - the short rib (by far my favorite, so flavorful), the poblano and the chicken (also amazing)! Loved every bite. Must come here! read more

Went today with a couple friends after hiking Estes. It was after the lunch rush and it was not busy at all. The food was great that's why I have given them 2 stars. The problem was the service. It took more than 15 minutes for our drinks. She then forgot that we ordered chips and salsa for appetizers. She didn't even apologize for forgetting our appetizer. Our entrees came in after awhile and one order was wrong. She checked once if we need anything after getting our food for the first 5 minutes and never came back or refilled our water. The food was good though and the esthetic was cute. If you don't mind waiting for your food I'd recommend this restaurant . read more

The tacos were in general very hot. I think a lot of their salsa has chopped up jalapeño peppers rather than Serano peppers. Other than that, the food was excellent. The churros were as good as anything I've had in Colorado. Innovative drink menu, assuming you like tequila. read more

I have enjoyed several meals at this place and have recommended it to my friends as well. The food is consistently creative (I know...creative for tacos?), and served by a very friendly and attentive staff. The room is a bit underwhelming, but heh, you are Lyons after all. read more

We stopped here for lunch while on vacation in the area. I wish we lived closer! Best guac ever! Great food, cool vibe.

We are super excited this place opened in Lyons and we're eager to try it and we're so disappointed and we hope this review is constructive to them- and they can make some changes so they can be a sustainable restaurant in Lyons. We will try again! Love the location, ambiance, decor, outdoor seating area. Menu looks promising, great price points. Service was lousy and we had to track down other staff to have drinks refilled. Food- needs more seasoning, even basic salt and pepper. We ordered Guac- and it was an avocado- with pico on top. Chips were good. Ceviche needs more spices and to be served with more then 2 plantains. We did only have happy hour - and chose to not stay b/c we were disappointed. Please work on service and food- we would love a Great Taco place in Lyons!!! read more

Delicious restaurant with real margaritas (I hate fake syrups and junk) our daughter has a thing for queso, she tells me Mojo has the best. The tacos offer great flavor options, don't be fooled by their size, very filling... we rolled out the door. read more

I will admit I am a little jealous that Lyons has this place and not Denver. The food was great (we sampled several options), drinks delicious and the service even better (if that is possible). The hostess is quick to greet you, seat you and everyone is very helpful to each other it seems. A very nice gentleman checked in on us several times if it seemed we needed something (or even if we didn't). I am guessing he is the owner. He seems truly invested in his restaurant and doting on his customers. When I am in Lyons again I will certainly be back here without a doubt! read more

We love Mojo's because they have fresh and tasty food. We are vegan and are so happy they have options for us that don't suck!! The environment is enjoyable and the staff are awesome!! :) read more
