This place has really good breakfast burritos. We've also been for lunch a few times. My only complaint is the salsa. The owner moves the bowls from table to table and has people share them, which isn't hygienic, and sometimes she is completely out of salsa. It's definitely a favorite for breakfast burritos though. read more

Wonderful breakfast burritos!!! Fresh ingredients. Super friendly and clean location and reasonable prices.

Best torta, tacos & horchata i've ever had in my life, and the best lady running the show!

Stopped in for lunch while driving by Parachute. We had chicken fajitas and chicken quesadillas. SO good! The homemade tortillas and salsa added to the meal's excellence. The owner and cook is friendly and checked on us often. Place is clean and quiet. Highly recommend. read more

Nalini's Restaurant - Carne asada tacos - Mexican Near Me - Parachute, Colorado

This place is a hidden gem, real homemade food with great taste! We stopped for breakfast and everything was amazing!

Such a wonderful, authentic place. It's a small place and only the owner was working when we came in for breakfast. It was like stopping by to have breakfast with family. I can't recommend this place highly enough. read more

Well I was in town for a few days and really wanted some great Mexican food although most likely made-from-scratch homemade it was very disappointing. My carne asada burrito was 90% rice..., okay maybe 85% but you get my drift.... Although I would like to try their tacos I'm hesitant to return read more

Nalini's Restaurant - Quesadilla and Taco Plate. Fantastic! - Mexican Near Me - Parachute, Colorado

Stopped to charge the Tesla in Parachute and looked on Yelp for food choices. The food here is delicious and definitely worth the 5 minute walk across the freeway. The red hot sauce is good and spicy. I had the tacos and was very impressed with how crispy the chorizo was. My girlfriend had the pupusas with chicharones and they were very good as well. The next time I come in, I'll be trying the Alambre. read more

Very cool little place. Food is good as well. Very friendly staff. Seating was a little meh. Chairs and tables not level. Was still great food and a fun time. Got a burrito with beans, rice, guacamole, and cilantro. Was totally worth the 8$ price tag. Was a large burrito. Buddies got quesadillas which seemed small for the price. One tortilla folded over onto the fixings. Small for the price. I recommend stopping here on your way through parachute, co. read more

I hate to give this place an average review because the lady was so sweet, but I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. For some reason, probably miscommunication between my husband and I, I thought this was more of a restaurant than a take away shop with dirty tables, a semi safe high chair and a slanted floor. Still, we stayed and ate. Previous review talk about "authentic Mexican fair", and I'm sorry but to me, that should include chips and salsa, and Mexican beer, which it did not. We got my son a kids chicken quesadilla which came with rice and beans, my husband had beef tacos and I had a beef quesadilla which came with a pinch of lettuce, 3 slices of pickled carrot and a little onion. It was salty and oily and I was really perplexed that mine didn't come with rice and beans. Sure it was less than $25 including two water bottles, but I'm highly recommending getting take out and not eating in. read more

Four tired, hungry Travelers entered this restaurant unsure of what awaited them. However, the smell of emanating from the building where heavenly and it seemed like a decent place to find something to eat. We walked into the building and there were about 5 small tables and a lady who was rushed trying to get food on them. We ordered our food and when it came, we were pleasantly surprised. The portion sizes were good, The taste was amazing, and she was very genial as she served us. For myself, I got a chicken dish and it was heavenly. I would recommend this place to anyone, traveler or not. This place is a good place to get food. The food is very authentic, and it tastes amazing. read more

We are Road trippers that like to stay in small towns and meet local people. Nalinis Restaurant was the perfect place to eat home made Mexican food and chat with the other families having dinner. I had fish tacos with rice and beans, all so fresh and delicious, salsas were delicious also. My husband had a carne asada burrito. They have a large breakfast menu also. Friendly, fast and no nonsense. read more

I had food from here a couple of times and it is to dieeee for. WOOOW IT was the most seasoned and delicious food I've had here in the valley. Highly recommend! Friendly people here too!! read more

What an absolute treat. This was the best stop we made heading through this area. All homemade tortillas, salsa, pupusas. Everything we had was delish. If you have an opportunity please stop on by. read more

It was advertised as low cost, it was pretty expensive for what they served. Not a lot of choices. Food quality was ok, but you didn't get a lot. I wouldn't go again. The people were friendly. The place was clean. It just wasn't great. read more

If you're local, you already know. If you're driving through on I-70, exit at Parachute and come eat here. Nalini's is a small, family-owned and run hole in the wall. And like most holes in most walls, the food is damn fine. Service is great, prices are low, and--pleasantly shocking--the portions are sensible instead of the typical American Super Size. Plenty of parking and super easy access on and off the freeway. Get the Fanta Piña if they have it when you come in. Do it. read more

This little hole in the wall has become one of my favorite places to go! Friendly service EVERYTIME!! The food is delicious and is not even close to any sense of being generic! The meats stay juicy, the tortillas fresh, and their salsas are awesome! read more

Good and authentic Mexican/Central American food. Excellent service....the cook is the server and her son is the owner. She is extremely nice and hospitable. She was very excited when I read her yelp reviews to her because she had no idea her business was on the Internet. The restaurant is very small and the food is homemade. Extremely affordable. The atmosphere is great and the restaurant is inside what used to be the living room of a small house. Reminds of us the small family restaurants in Costa Rica where the cook serves food out of her kitchen at home. We will definitely return. read more

Nalini's Restaurant - Taquitos - Mexican Near Me - Parachute, Colorado

What a fantastic place to randomly walk into! I saw Salvadorean cuisine, immediately craved pupusas and pulled off the freeway. Apparently the woman who runs the place was out from a surgery but Victor was filling in and made me two stellar pupusas con chicharron. They make the tortillas and horchata in house too! Place itself shares a small house with a salon and the neighbourhood feel really comes through here. Definitely stopping back here again on my way through. read more

The 5 star Saga Continues... I must say; this place is small, cozy, & nothing fancy yet the prices are very inexpensive for the quality of the meal your getting. I've eaten authentic Salvadorian/south Central American food before and this place is on Par! Delectable! I was just passing through, on vacation and I'm so happy I chose this spot for lunch. Don't miss out on their amazing food...it's family owned, the welcoming atmosphere that says they truly care about the food they serve. read more

Better than your average Mexican restaurant. Exceptional food and service. They made my wife and I a special vegan meal.

Very affordable and great quality. The chips and salsa they put down on your table was the bomb. I would normally never mention or notice something like this from a Mexican restaurant. Tortilla chips were not greasy. Salsa was Perfect. I ordered 3 tacos which were great. Very nice owners and service. This place is a gem for Parachute. read more

Decent food not much atmosphere. Very friendly authinic Mexican food. Very small and difficult to find somewhere to sit but worth a try. read more

It may look like a hole in the wall but trust me, it's far from it. My husband & I grabbed a bite here @ 1pm. We walked in to a warm welcome from the Owner & the Chef. Place was clean. Service was an A++. Our meal was excellent - me being gluten free asked for the cheese/chicken quesadilla to be made on corn tortilla v flour. The Chef made the corn tortilla from scratch; it was perfect. We also shared a garden salad that was fresh & plentiful. Our next time out that way, we will definitely have a meal here. read more

Seriously the best Mexican food I have had in a long time. Everything including the salsa was made fresh from scratch. The steak fajita quesadilla was amazing and the chile relleno was even better.

Nalini's Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Parachute, Colorado

This place is absolutely amazing. It's not one of those fancy places you'll find in a big city. It's literally just really great food at a reasonable price. I had the carna asada tacos and my husband had the pupusas both were amazing! The owner literally made everything fresh in the back, so you know it's fresh but it can take a few more minutes, because this kind of art for your taste buds takes a little more time. If you're driving East or West on I-70 it's a very quick hop off the highway to visit this place. Do yourself and your stomach a favor and give Nalini's a try. You won't regret it. read more

Excellent food. Nice people. 11 of us walked in and got a variety of things. All of them were excellent. Will be back next time I pass through. read more

A diamond in the rough! Delicious Mexican / Columbian food. We stopped while passing through headed to Denver. Just a short hop off the highway. Service was quick and kind. My husband got a trio of tacos and I got tostadas. All were delicious. They also had multiple salsas on the table to go with it. You should stop, you won't regret it. read more

There's a reason everyone has given this little secret 5!! Fresh and tasty food, service with a smile, genuine and authentic love for what they do. So pleasant and friendly. I feel it's as if we were in their home. (I believe it was) the owner/chef was charming and accommodating to a request as her grand-daughter greeted/served us. So cute and pleasant! Guacamole as it should be. Fresh, hot tortilla chips and chicken tacos made with real ingredients, and bold flavors. Mmmmmm!! read more
