    You really can't beat a $4 breakfast burrito that is just slightly smaller than a Chipotle burrito. However, they don't open until 8:30am and that seems to vary depending on who's working the opening shift so they're really more like brunch burritos. And you'll wait a while for your food so I wouldn't bother with the drive through. That said, the quality of the food here for a great price is worth the wait if you've got the time.

    All these years passed since I've been here2 this location, however I will say that the food was better than what I remember. I had steak & chicken tacos that were pretty swell & I like both red and green sh!t sauces that they put in with it. I was even able2 Door Dash it 2 my spot allowing Me2 be lazy & jus wait 4 grub. I'm a have2 try a burrito next time because I'll definitely be back. Check em out if you're ever in the neighborhood,Holla @ a Playa.

    Birria taco consome and chilli from the chili cheese fries

    I came in hungry for some good tacos I got carne asada tacos and they were rubbery not only that but I had to pay a additional dollar for some cheese and they didn't even put any it's like they put a pinch on all of my carne asada tacos I also ordered quesa birra tacos there was no flavor and they didn't even put any cheese on my tacos at all I ordered chili cheese fries and asked for the chilli on the side cause I wasn't sure I would like it good thing I did cause it had no flavor and once again the meat was rubbery the chilli had no meat in it and no flavor thankfully that had a salt shaker on the table the meat they put on my fries was carne asada that's what was rubbery not even 5 minutes after we left I threw up 2 times DO NOT RECOMMEND!

    Carne Asada taco with the green and red salsa, delicious!

    Moving from Arizona, I wondered if I would find a place that could give me what I need in life, Carne Asada tacos. Look no further! I always order the Carne Asada and my Fiancè orders the Al Pastor. I can't give them a 5 star because I have only tried the Carne Asada and the Tripa tacos. I look forward to trying other items on the menu. Tip, if you can throw down some tacos, order 4 minimum, you'll probably want more after!

    Garbage!!!

    The food here is decent. God FORBID though if they're OUT OF AN ITEM THEY JUST TELL YOU OR CANCEL YOUR ORDER. This place decided that since they were out of strawberries and cream that I must want two pieces of fucking cheesecake that cost half the price of the dessert I was just buying for the same price!!! They not only failed to let me know they were out of the item I asked for but they instead charge me the same price which was eight dollars for a four dollar piece of cheesecake two times. I'm sorry but if I ordered fucking strawberries and cream I'm pretty sure I don't want to pieces of your plain ass fucking cheesecake for double the price just because you don't want to lose a dollar. This place is nothing but a fucking rip off and I will never order from them again. I was charged $20 for two pieces of four dollar plain cheesecake that comes out of a fucking freezer I don't eat cheesecake bitch I asked for what I asked for and when people do that and you don't have it you go ahead and tell them or cancel their order when it's on DoorDash you don't proceed to rip them the fuck off!!!!

    Torta deliciousness

    Some of the best and most authentic Mexican food around and for amazing prices. $1.25 tacos and tamales, plates start at $6.50. The fresh juices and horchata are delicious. Also, grabbing a massive breakfast burrito for less than $4 is even easier now with the drive through. Open till 4am on weekends this place is surely to fit any late night appetite on a budget.

    The Huevos Rancheros Plate is so delicious! Tacos + Huevos Rancheros = an amazing marriage. The only complaint I have is that their menu is outdated for drinks. There are still some on there that they don't carry. Still amazing!!!

    Not bad, I recommend the pupusas and carnitas tacos. The salsa and seasoning can be hit or miss buts it's overall decent.

A lot of places popped up, but this Mexican restaurant really stood out -- great reviews and the food pictures looked amazing. It's about 13 minutes from the airport, which made it super convenient. From the outside, it looks small, but once you walk in, it's surprisingly spacious. We were seated immediately, and our server was absolutely phenomenal -- so friendly, attentive, and welcoming. For an appetizer, we ordered the queso fundido with chorizo (you can choose corn or flour tortillas). This is one of my favorite dishes to get at any Mexican restaurant if they offer it, and this one did not disappoint. The cheese was perfectly melty and stretchy, and the chorizo had great flavor that paired so well with it. Wrapping that cheesy, savory goodness in a warm tortilla? So good. For my main dish, I ordered the quesabirria -- corn tortillas filled with birria and cheese, fried crispy, and served with consommé for dipping. It was decent, but I will say it didn't have quite as much flavor as I'm used to with quesabirria. Still enjoyable, just could've used a bit more seasoning. The beans were actually delicious and full of flavor, but the rice was a little bland and could've used some salt. Overall, the service was amazing, the restaurant was clean, and even though it was busy, everything came out in a timely manner. The prices were also very reasonable -- definitely not expensive for the quality and portions. I would absolutely come back to try other dishes. With just a little more seasoning in some areas, it would easily be a five-star spot for me!

Unfortunately, the customer service was disappointing. We were told our total was $32, but when I paid with a card, the final charge came to $34.93. When I asked why the amount was different, I was told it was because I paid with a card. I understand that taxes and fees may apply, but customers should be told the full amount before being charged. What bothered me the most was the attitude. When I politely asked for clarification, the person cooking responded in a rude and arrogant way, saying, "You know that in the United States you have to pay sales tax." I wasn't questioning whether sales tax exists, I was simply asking why the amount I was quoted was different from the amount I was charged. I also noticed that my receipt showed a Denver sales tax rate of 9.15%, even though the food truck was located in Aurora on Hampden, which added to the confusion. The food is excellent, but the customer service and lack of clear communication left a negative impression. I would return for the food, but I hope they work on treating customers with more respect and explaining charges more clearly.
