First let me say I should of went with my gut! Turn away. The place look like an Old diner. Needed more than one so called waitress. Everyone looked unhappy or just miserable. Not vey clean. The food was absolutely disgusting!! So sad this place is even open. But then again some people don't know what good MEXICAN FOOD IS!! Authentic.... This stuff can never compare. When I tasted the Rellenos it was like bitting into Leatherfaces face!!! The other Rellenos were like Chinese egg rolls with a slice of a hatch chili. As for the carnitas. It smelled like canned dog food. I know this is harsh but 100% truth. It all was trashed as we left and still paid. Good luck y'all.very disappointed -10 read more

Ok, so I had to make a detour on my last trip to the Denver area and visit Santiago's as I used to really enjoy the Indian Taco when I lived there a very long time ago and surprisingly this restaurant location is still there which was great to see. They have several more locations in the area since I last visited and I can see why they are expanding as the Indian taco and their famous green Chile is a must have and it was as good as I remembered. Simple, flavorful and that texture of the fried shells layered with the cheese and green chile sauce is heaven I think. read more

Santiago's - A must have here. Beef & Bean Indian Taco. - Mexican Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

I've been to several Santiago locations throughout Denver into this one in Castle rock a couple of times and I keep hoping that it would be as good as the other locations. I don't know what the difference is, but the quality here seems to always be poor at best. The other locations are extremely good but the Castlerock one keeps let me down unfortunately it is the most convenient one for me? I keep hoping it gets better. read more

I love this place. The workers are so wonderful and the food is top-notch for a very reasonable price. Things have changed since Covid, which makes it all more friendly. I usually pick up a pint of green chili or refried beans as well to go with my tortillas and leftovers at home read more

My mom and I tried this place for the first time on Jan 14, 2025, on our way back to Pueblo from Denver. The food was great and the service was even better! DANIEL definitely deserves a raise! He was very polite, helpful, informative and always on point! Thanks Daniel!! My mom had a child's plate and I had a smothered carnitas and beans burrito bowl with half and half green chili. My mom liked mine so much that she got one to go. We really enjoyed the chips and salsa as well. Light, crispy chips and delicious, spicy homemade salsa. The portions were generous and the prices were very reasonable! The restaurant was clean and playing good music. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. We will be back for sure! I hope Daniel well be there when we stop in. read more

Very good Indian taco with great green chili. Servers were great and friendly. We will continue to going often for breakfast and lunch

Salsa was really good. Service was good. And most of the food was good however, I had carne asada and honestly, I should have just returned it as it was like eating beef jerky. Way, way over done. We also got some breakfast burritos to go and they were good the next day. Place was fairly busy when we were there. I think I'd like to try it again and get a different selection for the main meal. read more

Awesome green chili. Never disappoints!! Breakfast burritos are always spot on. I live out of state now but always stock up on a few quarts when I'm in town! read more

Santiago's - Breakfast burritos smothered and green chili. Great breakfast with dad! - Mexican Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

Normally I am a huge fan of Santiago's but this location didn't quite come through. Headed there for breakfast burritos but they took 15+ minutes to make (very rare), not very warm (cheese wasn't even melted) and staff was very short and cold. Unfortunate since I love Santiago's so maybe this was just an off day. read more

Very good food! I LOVE the green chile sauce!! The chips and salsa are fire! Can't wait to go back. read more

Burritos this morning were bone dry, no green chili inside. The entire office agreed. Maybe economy ? Used to be my favorite burritos to bring to offices. I'll have to pick a new restaurant. read more

Nice spot saw a couple people walk to and from the restraunt so decided to try it out, Kinda remineded me of my moms cooking, after the day she made it an theb made the left overs into burritos , chips and salsa togo would of been dope Still would go back after the munchies, Bring your own green pepper cholula!! :) read more

Santiago's - Carnitas n bean - Mexican Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

Many times I've been there and always ordered the smothered deluxe burrito which is usually pretty decent. Today, I made the mistake of ordering the smothered beef enchiladas. Anyway it should have been called the smothered onion enchilada with beef. I swear if I could have put all those big chunks of onion together I'd have a whole one. I do love onions but this was a serious amount of onion. This was lunchtime and I'm still tasting onion at dinner time. I noticed a sign on the door saying they need help. That's pretty obvious. read more

Where's the beef? Noticed a vast reduction in the "daily meat". I've go to this place 20 times a year. Today as always I ordered online. Ordered pickup ASAP. Email verification order will be ready for pickup at 9:47. Stood at area that has in the past been the pickup area although there isn't a sign indicating as such. After waiting until 10:05 and told a gal that I was awaiting an app order. She said you have to check in at register where there are always a bunch of people making new orders. I told her I've never done that. She was uninterested. Stood in that line behind people making their orders for ten minutes. It then took another ten to be completed. Why would I order online to stand behind ten people doing in person ordering? Never ever going there again and will gladly spread the word. Pathetic. read more

Order chicken tacos they're incredibly bland. Chicken is mushy and bland. Also got a side of chips and salsa. Didn't think it was possible to mess up salsa this much but they managed to. read more

Incredible food, breakfast burritos are always on point! I have been here many times and can't complain about anything. This place is amazing! read more

As with most locations burritos have become excessively greasy. Generally any meat is at ends of tortilla and none throughout. Definitely no longer a burrito to grab for the drive. Service is still great most mornings. In this day and age of healthier eating greasy food is not a favorable option from a health stand point. Grab plenty of napkins is best advice to soak up the excessive greasy mess. read more

Pretty good!!! The half and half breakfast burrito is yummy, but pretty small. i'll get 2 next time. wasn't my absolute favorite burrito ever, but wasn't bad either. just a normal good burrito read more

Breakfast eggs, meat and potatoes was very good. Service was excellent and speed of receiving our meals was excellent. The place was busy but the staff did a great job keeping us taken care of. read more

I'm giving this place a four stars because it's efficient, clean and the breakfast burritos are good. The only problem is the castle rock location toned down the heat way too much on their burritos. We always get the hot and it has this little kick to it and that's it. Wish their hot would live up to hot as it does in their Aurora location. The mild is weak, and half and half is also no heat. Even my 10 year old gets the hot and eats it with no problem. read more

Santiago's burritos are hands down the best I've had in Colorado and I've lived here my whole life. Both their smothered and breakfast burritos are pure heaven. I can handle my heat, but the half and half green chili is just right for me and still leaves my stomach burning with a happy sort of pain (lol). I am devastated they don't have one in Co Springs, so I plan my Castle Rock/Denver trips around stopping at Santiago's!! read more

Santiago's - Smothered deluxe chicken burrito - Mexican Near Me - Castle Rock, Colorado

Seriously. "This needs ketchup" should NOT be the first thing you think of when you bite into a Santiago's Breakfast Burrito!! Make the twenty minute drive to i25 and 285 and avoid the shit show at this location. Constant wrong orders, sub par food, overcharging and attitude. This is defintiely the bleached, "Castle Rock" version of a real Santiago's. Beware. read more

Great Mexican restaurant. Food is great But it is not a great place if you are looking for ambiance and the service is ok just a step up from fast food service. Drive through service for breakfast burritos is the best value around. read more

It used to be a decent deal for the price, even tho they have always been on the smaller side. Now they are so... so small and 50% more expensive. No longer worth it. read more

There was a long line in the drive thru. By the time I got up to order they weren't ready to take my order. Waited for someone to take my order only for the lady to tell me I have to go inside to order! And had a very nasty attitude. The meat of choice was chorizo. I wanted no meat in my breakfast burrito. I was literally stuck between cars. It's a specialty burrito if I order mine with no meat???! Such a ridiculous "rule". Went inside and got another rude employee. Ignored me then finally took my order. The burrito was out in a couple minutes. Didn't take long so why was it such a hassle to order this in the drive thru??? read more

This is by far the worst Santiago's location. They are incompetent when it comes to the app and pickup orders. Every single time they wait for you to show up before they start your order. (NO OTHER LOCATIONS DO THIS). I just waited 40 minutes for 4 burritos. The worst part is they sometimes lie about it. They've done this at least 4 times to me. I'm done with them. read more

Terrible location. Wait in an extremely long and time consuming drive-thru line for them to tell you they don't have whatever it is you want. In this case, a breakfast burrito at 7:30am. read more

I've been eating here for over 15 years and this used to be a really good small local business. Lately I look to see if they are open, google says they are and I drive all the way across town (for the third time today) to realize the owner/manager couldn't be bothered to update google. I get it's snowy today and I appreciate them not putting their employees in danger however letting all the people know who got on the road for Santiago's BEFORE they leave the house would be a lot better. read more

A very famous Mexican breakfast place with multiple branches in Colorado. They get absolutely packed during breakfast hours be it weekday or weekend ! Of all the days I visited on the breakfast burrito day in Denver and saw 100's of takeaway every hour. At $5 their breakfast burrito is a good deal but on the day I went they have an offer and they were giving it for $1.25 which is a steal. I tried their burritos on multiple occasions as they are a constant at our office breakfast Monday's ! At this location parking is limited. Service is quick and they have walk in take away, drive through and sit out service. For the first time I tried their dessert sopapillas and was disappointed with the texture and amount of oil. Flavors did not work for me ! Now I understand why they are not so popular here ! But their breakfast burritos are epic ! read more

I love Santiago's but ate at this one today and it was terrible!!!! I do t think they even put green chile in mine. Long line and terrible burrito today. Other locations are way better!! read more

By far, the worst Mexican restaurant food I've ever had. Never asked if I wanted food to go. We seated ourselves. No number, no ticket. Bad, bad service! read more

My wife and I used to go to Santiago's off of oxford and Broadway, until we moved to Colorado Springs. Now the castle rock location is the closest location to us, but still about an hour drive round trip. Every time we go in we ask for extra chili, because their breakfast burritos never have enough like the oxford and Broadway location. We pay extra for the additional chili and it's still so hit or miss. Today my wife drove an hour to get us burritos, and ordered with extra chili, and yet again, still no chili in the burritos. (Even after double checking with multiple staff members) Very disappointing, especially since we paid extra and drove just to get them. read more

I ordered some food online. The confirmation said it would be ready for pickup at a certain time. I walked in about 10 minutes early and waited for my order to be called out for pickup. After about 15 minutes I asked if they knew when it would be ready. They told me that they don't start making the food until someone tells them they arrived. Extremely upset I wasted my lunch hour waiting for food. They need to tell people online to show up and ask them to start their order. Or just force people to order in person. Defeats the purpose of ordering ahead. read more
