Came on a Friday night after a conference. Restaurant wasn't busy yet but got busy by the time I left. House margarita was on point. The service was good. I enjoyed my combo steak and chicken fajitas. It was loaded with peppers.
Their breakfast menu consists of food items such as crepes and mini pancakes. Their dinner/lunch menu has quesadillas, nachos, fajitas, flautas, tortas, tamales, enchiladas, tacos, and molcajete. The restaurant serves some very savory drinks. They specialize in margaritas and offer a wide assortment of them. I got a cucumber lime margarita, and it was so good. I really liked it. They also serve beer, wine, pina colodas, and Bloody Marys. Be on the lookout for their Happy Hour food and drink specials that run from 3 PM to 5 PM. My interaction with them was limited, but I will say that the staff was friendly enough. I ended up ordering the street tacos which came in a pair of 4. I got one of each available (carne asada, al pastor, tinga, and birria). I also got a pork belly taco as well. It took them about ten minutes to prepare my food. It was good, but nowhere near the best taco that I have had. I really did not like the pork belly taco. It tasted horrible. I recommend steering clear of that one. All-in-all my visit here was ok. I would not object to eating here again. I would just not make it a point to do so.
This joint is nestled in the 16th shopping mall area by the movie theater, so good choice if you need to eat before/after the theater. My food was presented well and the server was extremely acommodating to me! Having a great server can really make decent things excellent! They have several tables outside in the front patio during nice weather and a Happy Hour Mon - Fri 3 to 5. Those hours are a bit tough, but I always feel happy hours are worth it if you can swing the days/times. My house margarita was well done and yes, I could taste the booze, yay! I saw several people going by with the large fruit fresca drinks traditional in Mexico (Auguas Frescas). Looks like they really do them right, here! Families with kids seemed to be loving it. The menu is a little messy, typos, and some of it is all over the place! Crepes, what?! They should get that in a bit more professional-looking and reading order. But, I enjoyed myself and would definitely take this spot over the loud, obnoxious Mexican joint across the street! Food is better here. Or the down the street where service kinda sucks.
Delicious mango margarita and frozen mangonada. Quesabirria tacos were excellent- so flavorful, cheesy, and complimented by the consomme Fish taco was also a hit- fresh fried fish, crema, mango salsa Highly recommend!
In the 16th Street Mall, I was craving tacos on Taco Tuesday. Yelp reviews sent me here. Taco Tuesday special at $12. (See pic) The beans were meh, as was the rice. They elevated each other. The strawberry horchata was bomb! The tacos are more mini than street tacos, but a good two bites. Service was attentive. Place was clean. I recommend it to the convention-goers. Locals, please find something better.
Don't sleep on the corn tortillas. They were some of the best I've ever had. Portion size was big and seriously... did I mention how good the tortillas were?
Went during happy hour and got chips and guacamole and a frozen watermelon margarita from the happy hour menu. The guacamole was ok but I think it needed a little more lime and salt. I like that they use real fruit in their margarita and you could taste how fresh it was. My only complaint is it wasn't strong enough tequila. The server suggested I get the frozen margarita because they add an extra shot so it doesn't get watered down quickly but i didn't taste or feel the extra shot. I wanted to compare it to a regular margarita but service was so slow after the crowd came and the server didn't get back to my table until after happy hour ended. They also have weekly specials. I came on Wednesday which is 2 for 1 Quesobirrias. The tacos themselves were really good. The meat was tender and tasty. The consumme was very oily and hard to enjoy with the quesobirrias. I usually like to eat my consumme after the tacos are gone but because it was way too oily, I didn't want to finish it. Overall, it was just ok. Some things were better than others and the server was friendly but I think he was overwhelmed and needed help because he was acting as a host, waiter, and food runner for every table.
Food: I order the quesabirrias. Really really good! Good amount of meat and cheese. Good flavor. Staff are friendly (: Delicious food!
Wow, so this is in the Denver Pavilions where Motomaki used to be and I and a colleague stopped in here on a whim, wow what a great place with a really good menu. The service is excellent and like I said the menu items are really well done, they have food for all food types and a large drink menu as well. The atmosphere is laid back, we didn't have any appetizers but I did order their Que Rico salad with grilled chicken and creamy cilantro dressing, one of the best salads I have had in a while, it had sliced almonds, spinach, arugula, apples, strawberries and few other delicious items that made the salad absolutely delicious. My colleague had a nacho dish and carne asada street tacos, overall great food and service and if you're looking for a good lunch this is it. Will definitely be going here again.
This was my first Denver eats stop and my discovery of Birria Ramen. Just go ahead and order it. It was very salty but it made sense for it to me. Service was great as well. I also ordered the green juice which was yummy and large! And, the shaved ice that i could've done without... it was the chunky ice texture instead of the fine texture that i enjoy. I'd come back!
This was such a fun restaurant. We stopped in for drinks and had a really good server. He kept the drinks coming and made sure we were well taken care of. The drinks here are really good. My party also ordered tacos that they all enjoyed! The queso and chips were also really tasty

We were shopping in the area and this restaurant was recommended to us. It did not disappoint. It was pretty empty at 1600 on a Friday. Service was quick. We ordered enchiladas (per the waitress was good) and the taco plate. Large portions and was delicious. read more

Pros: Food was tasty. Service was pleasant and attentive. Lots of TVs playing sports. I was especially a fan of the margarita, salsas, and beans. Cons: No bar top to sit at. The booth I sat at was sticky. The flautas were not traditional and were more like taquitos. They were smaller. The "taquitos" (aka flautas) were slightly over cooked and the chicken inside was dry, but still flavorful. The rice was okay, but nothing special. I would definitely come back to try it again as my family enjoyed having breakfast here before I came alone. read more
My wife and I arrived around 630 on a Tuesday night. There weren't too many people at the restaurant but we were promptly greeted and seated. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We got chips and salsa for an appetizer. I had the Birria Ramen which was delicious and my wife had the chicken fajitas. We both enjoyed our dinner. Good service, quality meals and fair prices. I'd go back again. read more

Where do o begin.. Food: Their menu has a great variety of food options, tacos, birria ramen, loaded fruit and burgers. Everything was really good, a bit on the pricey side but not too bad. Ambience: Very clean, lots of seating and great for bigger groups Service: Everyone was great, but they were really slow. There were only 3 other people and our group of 5 waited for 35min to get drinks and food. They also forgot one of our main dishes and an agua fresca. We had to go up to ask about them after about 15-20min read more

Visiting from out of state. In 2-3 days this was the first place I went to with good food AND good drinks! I love cocktails and margaritas and they got them right! The food was delicious! You have to try the birria ramen! It was busy but our server was on it! The food, the ambiance, the service all gave very authentic Mexican vibes. read more
Very disappointing. First, most of the menu images say Happy Hour is 3:00-6:00. That's no longer true. It is now 3-5. The place was empty, yet the service was very slow. We planned dinner, but decided we would just have a margarita and go somewhere else for dinner. Not sure why so many positive reviews, that was not our experience. The margaritas were very good. I can't vouch for the food since we decided to go elsewhere. read more

My friend and I needed a quick bite before a movie we were going to see. We decided to run into this establishment as I've been here before. You'd never know this unassuming cantina has some of the best margaritas I've had. Also I've never seen a Mexican restaurant sale crepes can ramen dishes. Both were tasty. read more
I come in here all the time and everything i've ordered hits (and i've tried a lot of their very large menu). Most recently I had the birria ramen which is everything I love in one big old bowl. They just opened a full bar as well which i'm dying to check out for happy hour sometime. Always greeted with a smile & service is quick and friendly. Ramen noodles floating in rich consume with a hefty portion of birria, cilantro and onion? It's a yes from me. read more

A cool brunch spot within 16th Street Mall. The area is under construction so it may be challenging to find parking but we walked from our nearby hotel. The staff was happy to announce that they received their liquor license and offered margaritas to start. We were able to open a tab while we awaited the rest of our party. I ordered a simple breakfast with pancakes, eggs, breakfast potatoes and bacon. Everything came out hot and fresh. We arrived close to opening time so we practically had the place to ourselves but I enjoyed the music that played in the background. read more

My sister-in-law told me that this place had great drinks. We arrived after the lunch rush. We were greeted by a friendly host and seated quickly. I ordered their cocktail made with Jamaica and Mezcal. I have to say, this is the best cocktail I have ever had!! My brother had a cocktail with pineapple - sorry can't remember the name of it but It was very good. We tried a few food items - Mexican cream & corn, shrimp cocktail, sope, fish tacos, all of it was very good! read more
Love this place the menu looked great although I was in the mood for a Carne Asada fries and they were really good the green chili was actually not bad. I'm definitely coming back here. The service was great and so was the ambience the music in there was awesome. read more
Wow, this place is great!! The service, atmosphere, and food were top-notch. They have some great drinks like cucumber/lime. I had their sope. I have never had one before, and it was really good. I also had the Que Rico plate, and I chose chicken and veggies. It was a larger portion bowl and very delicious!! Highly recommend! read more
