Had a sudden craving for menudo. It is definitely an acquired taste and decent menudo is pretty hard to find, especially mid week. Dropped by Panaderia Rodriguez based on a few reviews that mentioned their menudo. They are a Panaderia and taqueria all rolled into one. Service was very friendly and they filled the menudo craving surprisingly well. Broth was flavorful and not particularly gamy from the tripe. Large portion was a quart for$8.95 and it was full of tripe and not too much hominy. For desert, we had the churro filled with Bavarian cream. Very pleased and will be back. read more

My food was a 10/10. I just got a carne asada quesadilla & a churro and it was hot & fresh. The service was amazing and the ambiance is average. read more

This place is amazing. Tucked in a gentrifying neighborhood holding its own! Everything we purchased was fresh and delicious.

The Plato de Flautas / Flautas Plate and The Carne con Papas y Chile Verde / Beef with Potatoes and Green Chili were so good, I highly recommend this place if you're looking for authentic mexican food! read more

Not a bad place to get more traditional Mexican food. Super simple and basic food lots of bakery items to pick from, I personal can't eat them but my kid likes the "long John" she says its not as sweet as American "donuts" and so she likes theirs better. The Chile is not spicy but flavorful. I really enjoy their queso enchiladas and my kiddo like their Chile cheese fries. I've also had a Mexican hamburger before did not care for it as the meat was overcooked and dry. My husband had the caldo de res soup and said he enjoyed it. read more

I'm trying to be kind because I see the potential but.. I think they need new bakers, the sweet bread is so bad! Chocolate muffin was dry as a brick and the other types had weird colors and weird looks (very unprofessional). Next time if I stop here I want to try the tamales and some food. Hopefully that let me with a better impression. read more

I had lunch there today and was very disappointed. I hadn't been there since before Covid when I really enjoyed it. Today I ordered the Chuletas (pork chops) and half the pork was inedible. Full of fat and grizzle. It tasted really good but too much waste. And the price was $14.99-not worth it. Maybe I ordered wrong. Seemed like a lot of people were eating menudo, caldo de res or some other soup. If chuletas are on the menu I usually order them because I really like them. Too expensive and not worth it I'm sorry to say. read more

8.00 for a breakfast burrito and water, I'll pass and the counter chick was extremely rude she just kept saying 8.00 and I had called and a breakfast burrito is 3 .95 so is water 4,00? Plus I hate breakfast burritos made with hash browns. Use potato eggs and cheese. No meat. No chili still got chili and hash browns. I've had much better for a lot less money. I'll stick with my spot across from Sloans lake, bomb breakfast burritos and a freaking water for a heck of a lot less money. read more

Small but good. I came here looking for pan de muerto which the sell 4 days before dia de los muertos. The guy behind the counter spoke english which is great because my spanish es no bueno. The were nice and fast and... THEY HAVE BARBACOA. Beef cheek barbacoa like back in TX. Im always searching for it in this city! read more

Panaderia Rodriguez - Bunuelos! Crispy crunchy messy goodness! This is the best. - Bakeries Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

BEST MEXICAN FOOD EVER! Everything was just amazing and so enjoyable from the rice to the tacos to the SALSA the dessert, absolute 10/10 on food no questions. And the service just made everything that much better when I came in to order for the first time. Gonna recommend and come back! read more

Nice hidden gem! The variety of sweets was good. I would give it a 4 but the sugar donut was a little raw in the middle. To be fair the employee offered to give me another one at no charge which was a nice thing to do (I passed, but appreciate the offer). The conchas were a little dry but the pineapple coconut baked good was yummy! They also sell soups, which seem to be popular, there were people eating there and someone taking soup to go, that would definitely be worth a try! I'd go back when I visit Denver to try those sugar donuts again! read more

The sweet bread is either hard as a rock or it spoils by the next day. I purchased some bread on a Sunday (yesterday) 5/20 and by this afternoon (Monday 5/21) the bread was growing mold. This panaderia is known for selling old bread. Stay away from this place. Most people don't look on the inside when eating an empanada and I'm sure someone would've bitten into this and not noticed. Yuck! read more

I love this place. All of the food is delicious, they have baked goods, a small grocery, and the staff is incredibly friendly. I posted the menu since I couldn't find it (clear) anywhere else online. read more

There are some Mexican immigrants who abuse from new immigrants who come to the US and who are looking for a vernacular flavor, but are forced to pay excessive prices. In this "panadería", bread is extremely expensive, prices are not shown, and the final balance is a "surprise" to the customer. The flavor of the bread actually ranges from mediocre to so-so, and it looks pretty dirty. As a matter of fact, it was the owner who gave me the bread, and "pushed" the bread with his dirty fingers. Make yourself a favor, and avoid this place at any cost. read more

Love this spot. Breakfast burritos are a great go to. They have decent tamales and the trencitas, one of their pastries, are great for los munchies. read more

We used to get these desserts we always called pan de quesos. They used to put tons of cheese stuff in it and it used to be my favorite! They started skimping on the filling but when we recently bought one it did have some visible filling which is awesome because it's delicious! It's basically a Mexican cheese danish. Glad this place hasn't let me down. Also we enjoy their food and usually take their tamales to gatherings. read more

Total bummer. Was looking forward to finally trying. Arrived 8:45pm, told kitchen is closed at 9pm, so we tried to order, but then told kitchen had closed early at 8:40!! Whatever. And the place doesn't close until 10pm. Not sure what the disconnect was. read more

I absolutely love this place! It's very authentic so don't go in there thinking it's the typical "New Mexican-style" of Mexican food that's common in Colorado. This is more from northern Mexico. Anyway, the people are friendly and will always serve you quickly. Everything is made to order so there's a short wait for your fresh food. They serve Mexican pastries which are also really good. read more

Stopped in on a whim while hitting the liquor store next door. Adobada tacos were delicious, treats were delicious, and service was prompt and friendly. 10/10 would recommend. Prices were great too; $7.50 for 4 tacos and $3.50 for 3 large pasteries! read more

This is the worst place ever went in for tortas and have been throwing up for two days straight

Their food is soooo good! Went there this morning, I had the chilaquiles, my husband had a torta and my parents had menudo. Can't decide what was best as it was all soooooooo good! Cute little spot, fresh baked bread and sweet customer service. Do yourself a favor and bring home some bread after your done eating. read more

Needed some bread for sandwiches and some soda. I try to avoid the grocery store and I came upon this place right by my house! What an amazing find. I picked up some fresh rolls and strawberry churros, which I shared with two friends. And we all agreed hands down the best churro we've ever tasted. Next time I stop I'm picking up tamales! read more

Great bakery and hearty, authentic Mexican food! I only gave it 4 stars because the seating area is small. But, the food and staff both earn 5 stars! Loved every single baked good I tried and it's I've had about a dozen different items from churros, cochitos, concha, gallinos, ojos de toro, and more! read more

Had the Tortas with carnitas which were unbelievable. This is a super authentic Mexican bakery. If you are searching for the real thing, look no further. read more

Panaderia Rodriguez - The front desk and where u order - Bakeries Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

What a super small, itty-bitty, delightfully filled Mexican bakery! I grew up with these sort of bakeries in my neighborhood, but with over time, I wanted to expand my cravings somewhere along the Lakewood side of Colorado. It's petite and family owned, and they sell all things Pan Dulce, Piedras, etc., but just because they sell pastries, doesn't mean they are lacking of actual food: breakfast burritos, tortas, churros, and horchata!! awww yah. Oh! I also saw they sold Menudo, Tamales, Barbacoa, beef cheek of course and lots more. The seating is not so expanded, but i rather stand up to eat my Churro. read more

This place is bomb dot com. This is the type of place Mexicans go to eat Mexican food. If you are not honestly used to very traditional Mexican food and style, this is not the place for you. However if you want the actual stuff, this is it! You can even get the Mexican mayonnaise here! read more

I have been to many Mexican cafes and I thought the others were great. Then I just happened to drive by and see this tiny cafe. I bought pollo quesadilla. Best meal ever. Amazing bakery. A lot to choose from. Churros were perfect. Very friendly staff. Place was small, packed with people. They need more tables. Perhaps small tables outside if allowed. Seating was very limited for being so busy. I can see why they were so busy. Food was great, very hot (temp.). Even the other customers there were friendly and fun. Had a bad day before coming here. They made my day. So thank you. Day is better now because of the smiles there. You guys are awesome. Keep up the excellent work. This place wins 1st place. 10 stars. read more

If I could give a rating of 0 I would. My family would religiously come here to buy pastries once every two weeks when I was a kid. I was craving a pastry one day now that I am older and so I drove to this very shop; I was only buying a single pastry. A pleasant lady was helping me with my order and the owner overheard that I was only buying a single pastry. The short mexican tempered owner rushed to the counter as if I had committed a crime exclaiming to me, "I don't do business with people that are only buying a single piece". I couldn't help but think, my family and I used to come here every two weeks when I was a kid after having gone to the laundromat. I just got up and left I didn't tell him a word but I told my mother what happened and we have never gone back since. No le den su negocio a este ignorante dueño de la panaderia es un enano enojon. Su gente que trabaja hay son muy lindos pero el es un asco de persona. Me corrio un dia simplemente porque solo estaba comprando una pieza de pan siendo que mi familia cuando estaba mas joven despues de ir a secar la ropa cada dos semanas le hivamos a comprar mucho pan. Yo hiva bien vestido y bien portado el dia que paso lo ocurrido maneje hasta aya por una pieza de pan pero me arrepenti demasiado. read more

One of my all time favorite Mexican bakeries and restaurants. The food is always made fresh and flavorful, and their pastries are always on point. I would highly recommend the smothered barbacoa burrito and their huge and filling tostadas. Their cupcakes are to die for, made with real Mexican chocolate and baked fresh daily. read more

Great little bakery. Authentic atmosphere and friendly staff. I had Menudo, a tamale verde and two churros. Menudo was one of the better ones in town. The beans were very good. The tamale was very flavorful. But the churros are recommended highly. The seating is limited but we shared a table with the other local patrons. We are excited to return. And we will tell everyone. Can't wait to try more of their pastries. read more

Had a breakfast burrito, churro, and large horchata. The burrito was large and tasted beyond amazing, churro and horchata were fresh and great. Loved the atmosphere and the music. We found this place before church and happy we did. read more

Great Mexican sweet bread! The girl at the counter was nice and helped us make up our mind on the many choices. Authentic!

Absolutely horrible experience. Found a huge piece of hair in one of my tamales after having already eaten three of them and called if I could get a new batch or refund. They said yes over the phone but forgot to mention that I had to bring the tamales back. So I go home and bring them back and they start smirking and talking under their breath as if they're in disbelief that I actually came back. They don't give me a full refund which is fair because 3 were eaten but they tried charging me for the tamale that had a hair in it. The owner of the restaurant and someone who I believe to be his wife comes in and they too give me a hard time saying that the hair was probably part of the husk. I know what a piece of hair looks like. Don't eat here. I'll recommend going to Camargo's if you want good red tamales. This was my first experience at this restaurant and surely to be my last. My family who has given business here for years also plan to stop supporting this restaurant. read more

Tasty, authentic Mexican food! Sweet bread was also some of the best I've had. Really cute little place, not a lot seating area though. Will be going back and bringing more of my family members! read more
