    We've been coming here about 14 years. There's been a lot of changes, a remodel , an update to the…read moremenu. I think they finally got it right. The food is really good. One of my favorite things is the chicken kale rice bowl. The chicken is pretty good, but to be honest it needs a little bit more seasoning. The star of the show is the kale. I'm not a huge kale fan, but the stuff is fantastic. I know what you're thinking- it's kale, calm down. But this stuff is magic. The Carnitas burrito is really good too. Great margaritas. Wouldn't change anything.

    Haven't been to Rio Grande in many years. Used to go all the time back in the day. It was nice to…read moresee they remodeled and gave it a fresh makeover, because it used to be pretty run down. The strawberry margarita was always my favorite. They cut you off after three, but honestly, since they've changed the recipe from what it used to be, I didn't even order more than one this time. It really lacked the strawberry flavor it used to have. The queso tasted more like 7-Eleven nacho cheese than anything good. The guacamole was still solid, but I guess it's hard to screw up avocados and spices. I had the shrimp and crab enchiladas, which were fair. Nothing special. Everybody else felt their food was just okay too. Really disappointing for what Rio used to be. Service was good though. That's about the only reason I'm giving this 3 stars.

    To be honest, I had never heard of this place until we moved to Lakewood, and there was one a…read morecouple of blocks away. That one, however, closed down, and we had come to like it. So, we looked for another. We found two. One was way South in Greenwood Village. We tried it, and it was okay, but not the same. The other one was this one in Westminster. So, we drove up there. We liked it. We like it better than we liked the one that used to be in Lakewood. I've always liked the flavors of Mexican food, but I was never really too hot on what is known as "Tex Mex," until Chuy's. I like the restaurant, I like the decor, and I have come to like the food. I admit I always get the same thing because I am vegetarian, and it is difficult to eat vegetarian in a Mexican restaurant. This place KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK serving beans, and rice that are VEGAN! No lard, no animal products, but all the taste, texture, and loveliness of regular Mexican. Even the corn tortillas are vegetarian. The flour tortillas are not, but they are made FRESH on site. I have found that I have come to love their "Big as yo face" burritos smothered in the Ranchero Sauce. The Ranchero Sauce is a milder sauce, but I like the flavor, and I just bring some of my own Ghost Pepper Powder to sprinkle on, and perk it up to standards! I love that I can eat Mexican rice and beans again and not worry about lard, or chicken broth, but with the SAME EXCELLENT flavor. Chuy's has become the only burrito I actually crave. THANK YOU CHUY'S! By the way, I thought the Lakewood location, (now closed), was pretty good. The Greenwood Village wasn't quite as good. The Westminster location, however, is the best of them all. It's a bit of a drive for me, but I love the food, I love the service, and I love the staff. By the way, their salsa that they serve with their chips is pretty darn good, too. It's spicy, but not too spicy, and I think most people will like it. They also serve a chipotle ranch sauce with the chips that has grown on me. I LIKE THIS PLACE! They also have a reward program where you can get free food, and who doesn't love that?

    I have fond memories of Chuy's from Texas, so when this was on the way home vs my typical place…read morebeing a 10-minute detour, I decided to check out the Colorado version. I wish I hadn't. Took nearly 3 minutes in an empty lobby to be seated, with no apology for the delay. Told the server I was trying to avoid whole onions. Ordered the King's Memorial Combo with her reassurance. It took abnormally long to arrive and had sat under hot lights for so long that the tortillas were now taco shells. Of the 4 offerings, 2 were ground beef with whole onions. The third was uninspired and clearly unseasoned chicken. When I informed the server, she said she didn't eat their ground beef and didn't know it had onions. She did offer to have an enchilada remade, but by then I was just ready to get out of there. Waited another half an hour for the check. Never again.
