I've had Santiago's breakfast burritos a few times. Every now and then they get brought into work. But this was finally the first time I got to visit Santiago's first hand. And let me tell you. They do not disappoint. The burritos are made to order and their perfect size. Everyday is a different meat if the day which is nice because it gives it a nice variety if you go on a daily. You get to choose your spice level between mild, half and half or hot. I got the mild with no cheese and we also got a hot. The meat of the day was chorizo. It took maybe 5 mins from the time I ordered to the time I got my burritos. Which is speedy fast. The price is also really good. It's roughly $2.80 for a burrito. If you are a breakfast burrito lover like me. This is the place to go. The service is speedy and the burrito is mouthwatering delicious. Best part is they open at 6am so you can stop by before work and grab a few. Highly highly recommend!! read more

AWFUL customer service and downright shady. I've been coming here with my family for a while but recently they put my recommendation to shame. My friends called to make an order and some lady answered then placed them on hold for a while and forgot about them. When she did answer, she was super snappy with a lot of attitude and hung up in the MIDDLE of them talking. She also realized they were new to the place so she overcharged them for the same thing I usually get. ( I checked online to see prices and they were still the same and they paid in cash). read more

Typically good, however, today I found a bone in my burrito poked my cheek and was super gross, over an inch long read more

Santiago's - Bean and chicharone burrito - Mexican Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

Food was good - green chilli was great. Breakfast place best. Service decent. Atmosphere not amazing.

Great breakfast burritos. Quick service. There is a reason there is so many of these in Denver.

The cashier young,female with red dyed hair, today 11/19/25 @430 pm was very disrespectful to a elderly customer. She mischarged someone else and tried to charge a different elderly man different and he didn't understand so she told him I am charging you more. I tried to give you a discount but you didn't want it. Then he asked for it and she was basically, too bad. She proceeded to talk to her counter male cashier making fun of the older customer. He called the old man stupid. All while I sat there. I thought this was very rude and disrespectful, Santiago's train your people customer service. Others can hear, teach them empathy kindness and compassion. Teach them to have manners. read more

Love this place! My daughter would get us breakfast tacos before her transplant. Now we are getting the tacos. Delicious! Old fashioned hard shell tacos. Love it! Ten stars! read more

Fast, fairly priced, friendly service but wow was the meat flavorless. I got the flautas and it's like they weren't seasoned at all. After all the hype I heard about this place I expected better. read more

A bunch of cheap racists towards people who look white. Wouldnt refund me my money for an old ingredient made burrito....drove all the way back so they could lie and waste my gas and my time and my money... Just refund money for a burrito. How hard is it?!?!! Not hard. Lazy, rude and cheap and ignorants on the staff and manager. No respect for the industry or humanity.. read more

Santiago's Burrito was always been my favorite. The savor of the food is exquisite, however the service is really poor, the server was being rude for not being understand my English well. The ambiance was okay, there are some room for improvements. But the higlight of everything was the food which is superb. read more

Don't be fooled. Not all Sants are the same. This location is hands down THE BEST. I went there every Wednesday for about a year to get their bacon breakfast burrito. Then I moved away for about 5 years and this is the first place I went when I got back. The lady taking my order still remembered my name. That's customer service! Also, I have eaten at other locations and the green chile was just not the same. Service is fast, the burritos are served fresh and hot. read more

Santiago's will forever be my all time favorite Mexican restaurant when visiting Denver. Being that I am born and raised here I crave their stuffed sopapillas now that I am away!! There's nothing like a good ol' stuffed sopapilla with beans cheese and chicharrones No matter what I always stop here when visiting town :) read more

I called the number they have to order through phone so I didn't have to wait since I was going to order carne asada burrito I know they take longer to make Literally drove all the way to the store took me 20 min to come in and to find no one in the store I asked the lady if they took orders through phone and she said if your just going to order a burrito just come in don't call. Like why do they have the number to order if they don't take orders poor service and on top of that she was rude to me saying to take my business else where if I didn't want to order read more

Tried calling before I left the house to place a to-go order. The phone rang for at least 7-10 times before the called was hung up on. I never reached a person nor an answering machine., just disconnected. Answering machine with address and new hours of operation would be extremely helpful. Was looking forward to trying a new Santiago's, arrived at 6:50 pm and door was locked with new hours posted. Hopefully Yelp will update hours immediately as this was a 40 min round trip for naught. read more

Dirty and run down! Extremely greasy food and not good! If you don't speak Spanish don't bother going in because the waitress didn't speak English read more

I was having a major craving for Santiago's this morning. I was very disappointed with my experience. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with half and half chili and flour tortillas. My tortillas were cold as if they were pulled straight from a refrigerator. My food was decent to say the least. My dish lacked flavor and was cold. My husband got the steak burrito deluxe. His food was also room temperature and had two gray hairs in it! Eek! The salsa we ordered with chips tasted like tomato sauce, and also lacked the quality salsa flavor. Our server did not seem enthusiastic to work with us or even apologized for the hair in our food. That is why I didn't even bother to ask for warm tortillas or share concerns about my meal. I feel terrible leaving this review because I have always loved eating at Santiago's, but this was subpar. Please don't treat paying customers like this, you have such an amazing reputation and y'all could do better. Estaba teniendo un gran antojo de Santiago esta mañana. Estaba muy decepcionado con mi experiencia. Pedí los Huevos Rancheros con mitad y mitad chile y tortillas de harina. Mis tortillas estaban frías como si las hubieran sacado directamente del refrigerador. Mi comida era decente por decir lo menos. Mi plato carecía de sabor y estaba frío. Mi marido consiguió el bistec burrito deluxe. ¡Su comida también estaba a temperatura ambiente y tenía dos canas! ¡Eek! La salsa que pedimos con papas fritas sabía a salsa de tomate y también carecía del sabor de salsa de calidad. Nuestro servidor no parecía entusiasmado por trabajar con nosotros o incluso se disculpó por el cabello en nuestra comida. Es por eso que ni siquiera me molesté en pedir tortillas calientes o compartir preocupaciones sobre mi comida. Me siento terrible al dejar esta reseña porque siempre me ha encantado comer en Santiago's, pero esto fue insatisfactorio. Por favor, no trate a los clientes que pagan de esta manera, tiene una reputación increíble y todos podrían hacerlo mejor. read more

There is no other green chili that isn't homemade! I LOVE Santiago's!!! Service is always great and food is amazing!

Great food & great service. Mom hada smothered breakfast burrito... I had a carnitas & beans breakfast bowl chile on the side. We also ordered the sopapillas and had a yummy breakfast with food leftover. read more

This location is always swamped, the food is never fresh and the poor staff is overworked. The restaurant always smells like trash or a dirty bathroom. Go to another location. read more

Called to place an order as I was leaving the house. Guy answered and asked if I can hold I kindly said yes. As I'm on hold I can hear him taking several other people's orders as I wait. 10 minutes later still on hold I show up at the restaurant and show him my phone and say I'm still on hold. His only response was I'm busy I'm the only one here. No apology no I forgot nothing. I turned around and left and never will go back. Horrible customer service! read more

This is my least favorite Santiago's location. I'm used to going in, ordering, grabbing and go but I guess this is more of a sit down location. Service sucked. Took forever with refills. Horrible parking lot. Burritos rocked as always so here I am conflicted. I will just stick to the other locations where you can go in and out easily. read more

Really friendly and fast service, and just look at my smothered fries . The food is absolutely delicious. read more

As much as I truly enjoy their food I cannot recommend dining at this location. Their staff here is extremely rude and non professional. I really don't feel appreciated for patronizing this establishment. I have taken my business elsewhere do to the rudeness of the waitresses. My takeout orders have been wrong and while inquiring I was told that they were very busy and didn't have time to listen to my issues. They did offer a credit. When I explained that I wasn't looking for a free meal or credit I just wanted them to get my order correct and to listen to my concerns. Didn't have the time for my concerns, very sad to see this type of lackadaisical attitude. Been eating at Santiago's for over 20 years but time to move on. Ever since they lowered the heat level of their famous green chili it's been hard to eat here minus the hospitality. read more

Second time getting my order wrong and had to wait for 20 minutes for our take out order. Girls up front are rude and can never get an order right. I will never go here again. $30 for 3 smothered burritos....what a ripoff. read more

Hi all, I am writing my first ever yelp review, and I would never talk down a business unless absolutely necessary, let alone write about it. Unfortunately, today is that day. I went in today Wednesday 1/17/2034 for my work break around 1pm and ordered extremely simple burritos, just two ground beef and cheese burritos for my brother, he decided he no longer wanted them after tasting how salty it was. So I ate the both of them thinking he was just being silly. NOPE, these burritos were disgusting. Extremely salty and dry. It tasted overall expired. I should have taken that as my sign, but I was hungry and had nothing to eat this day, all day, I barely got away from work for a break. I should have taken the tase as a sign because the next thing I know I am vomiting my guts out. We are taking I am currently writing this from the emergency room puking, sweating, shivering, and of course other awful fluids. I nearly passed out from pain and went to the emergency room a few hours later. Now, I tried to give this restaurant the benefit of the doubt because I love Santiago's. However my suspicions were confirmed when they were pumping me full of liquids, that I had in fact ingested expired/ incorrectly handled bad meat. Specifically GROUND BEEF! As I mentioned, the only thing I had to consume today, let alone MEAT, was the Santiago's ground beef burritos. I am currently in so much pain trying to pass this food poisoning, and most importantly am extremely disappointed to have been served this quality of food. The 13$ was not the issue, it is the fact I can't even drink water and sleep because of the pain this food has caused me. I have not eaten anything else after these burritos either, I have not been able to. Extremely disappointed, I did not need to go through all of this pain. read more

Very good and very cheap breakfast burritos! Perfect for when you're in a hurry and need to pick something up to go. I ordered two and saved one for breakfast the next day and it was just as good the second day. read more

I was excited to try one of their breakfast burritos, as I'd been told that Santiago's has the best ones in Denver. I didn't completely understand at first, but it appears there's a meat of the day for all burritos. Today it was bacon. It was pretty decent overall. The flavors were right, and the salsa was tasty. I would have a photo, but it wasn't very photogenic. I would have liked it better if it were made fresh, but I get the sense that they probably need to be pre-made to deal with the sheer volume of folks. Price-wise, it's excellent. I got it to go, and the service was overall pretty quick and friendly. I'm told that the original Santiago's is better and look forward to trying the breakfast burrito there. read more

We have been big fans of santiagos for years now...mostly aft the santiagos on broadway. We were at the santigos on sheridan and not only was the meal horrible, Brown lettuce, old chicharone, and mild sauce when we asked for hot, but we were also overcharged and treated poorly when we were served and called to discuss the discrepancies within or order. Get it together santiagos.....please!!! read more

Food is tasty , service was great . Not alot of options to choose from. It's better than the one on Mississippi. We will definitely be back. read more

If you don't go here your An idiot. Lol... the breakfast burritos are awesome. Fast and good. Try them out!!

As a Denver native I'm very familiar with Santiagos and I've usually put up with messed up orders, half witted servers and mediocre food when I'm too lazy to cook for myself. But yesterday sealed the deal for myself and my family. We were told by a "server" that we could not sit in the only big booth they have cause there were only 3 of us and in her words "if 5 people come in they need this table". Mind you the restaurant was maybe 1/3 full. What she didn't know was that we would be ordering extras to go for family unable to attend. And more importantly, some people suffer from any variety of issues such as anxiety or claustrophobia so sitting in the very back corner is ideal to be able to even visit an establishment like that!! As a former server myself, the way she handled the situation was for lack of a better word, ghetto!! I didn't bother to get her name as we just walked out. Perhaps the owners can teach some sensitivity training and English lessons as well. read more

So I'm upping their rating to 3 stars. I went back for takeout...I know, I know, in my first review I said I'd never be back. But here we are 3.5 months later....I had only $8 in cash for lunch and was craving Mexican food. Because the food here is so inexpensive I decided to grab some takeout, and give it another try. I went with a stuffed sopapilla, smothered in hot green chile, and a plain crispy chile relleno on the side. Both items were very good, and the green chile was actually hot this time! The stuffed sopapilla was huge and only around $6. I was much happier with my food this time around, and the fact that they charge for chips and salsa was less annoying, since I got takeout and already had some at home (obviously, the no margaritas thing wasn't an issue either). I probably will be back again, when I'm wanting cheap, yet filling, Mexican takeout. read more

Best authentic food in all of denver. Love their green chile and everything else on the menu. Affordable, great proportions and friendly staff. Check it out. read more

Two Words: Breakfast. Burrito. $2.00 for an awesomely stuffed burrito with eggs, potatoes, meat, and cheese. Fifty cents more gets you... Chiccharones! Right in the burrito!! Slap a Sombrero on me and call me a Gringa, I LOVE ME SOME CHICCHARONES. Long (LONG!) waits before the 10:30am Breakfast cutoff, but they WILL take your order over the phone. I'd recommend that. This location is closed on Sundays (Bummer.) read more

Stopped in for a VERY late "breakfast" nearing the lunch hour, or perhaps it was the lunch hour because by the time we ordered (or tried to) breakfast burritos, they weren't serving 'em anymore!!! Boo. Well instead I just got a bean & carnitas burrito with half & half chili. It was ok. I was just flat out hungry. Ok, my friends would have told you that day I was very HANGRY but I don't think I was that bad. It satisfied. And it was only $4 for me to eat. I guess I can't complain. This was my 2nd Santiago's burrito and I have to say I like the breakfast burritos better. We also had chips and salsa, and the salsa was actually reminiscent of marinara sauce and somehow still had quite a kick. It was interesting, but again I was quite famished. The service was meh. Nice, but extremely slow. Food seemed to take ages and the restaurant was only about 1/2 full. read more
