I had a craving for mexican food and was looking for a restaurant to try. This place is tucked away in a sleepy shopping center, blink and you might miss it. Its very unassuming both inside and outside. I went during the week for a late lunch. The place was almost empty, just my table and two people at the bar. The interior was clean but had clutter in the corners. We were greeted by the only person there, I believe probably the owner or manager working as a server. They have a diverse menu. We ordered and they brought out chips and salsa. It wasn't bad, the salsa was a bit spicy for my taste. My seatmate order the chimichanga without the smothered green chile. My companion said it was good but there was something off-putting about the chicken, they felt like it was mix of pulled chicken and canned chicken. I ordered a choice special with chicken enchilada, beef tostada and rice and beans. Overall it wasn't bad. Everything tasted as expected. The chicken enchilada was a bit bland even with the red sauce. It tasted fresh, but was missing that exceptional restaurant quality that you want when you go out. read more

This was my first time eating here and it was great! I ordered the steak street tacos and wow! So good! It came with 4 tacos and no beans and rice, which was perfect since I don't usually eat the beans and rice. But the steak in the tacos was delicious and no fat!!!! I loved the toppings too along with the fresh guacamole! I will definitely be back! read more

To start with let me say that this place is a clean, attractive and comfortable place to dine. We were a party of four and we were greeted immediately and seated promptly. We ordered nachos as an appetizer and they were good as nachos go. I ordered crispy chili rellenos,others ordered fish tacos, carne asada burritos and a chili hangar. I have a fondness for chili rellenos and I have enjoyed and not enjoyed them in many restaurants. These rellenos were very good, crispy, tasty and with some green chili sauce on the side for dipping. Everyone in our party enjoyed their meal and really liked the ambiance. The service was on point without being intrusive. The quality and quantity of the food was worth the visit and I will be back. The prices are fair, good service, value, cleanliness and good foot. Hitting on all cylinders. read more

There was a US world cup game on so the crowd was great but from what I could tell, for about 50 patrons, there was only a bartender and one server.

Hubby and I got takeout of Steak Fajitas, chips and a side of their salsa from their location on 112th and Federal. The employee helping us was marvelous.i would give that man a five stars in customer service. The portion was pretty large and the veggies fresh. The salsa was really tasty but the meat was bland . I like fajita meat to have spice added to it also. I would probably try something else on the menu next time. read more

I forgot to take pics of our food. Sorry, My mother and I went after seeing this place on TikTok , go figure right . I'll rate this on 3 things Food- good food, it was hot , not to spicy typical dishes nothing signature or that stood out to me. Chips and salsa were perfect for me but if you can not handle spicy salsa do not try it. Service- top notch ! I hope they never change Location- this place is small. The decor is modern and fun. Open concept that is split one side with comfy tables which are to close to each other. I left they are trying to maximize the seating area. The other half is more a bar filling with a tv and high tables. My opinion get ride of that and add more space and tables. Overall if this place is not crowded it's a cute and fun time. Crowded I feel it will be chaotic. I will continue to visit read more

We have been going to Wapos in Boulder for years. The food was always extraordinary. Especially the Pastor. When they opened closer to home, we were excited. However, after a couple of visits, we are extremely disappointed. The food is nothing like the Boulder location. It is bland and without character. Tonight, the chicken was very very dry, the torrillas seemed a fewdays old. They weren't just dry, they were crispy. This is just another example of expanding killing quality. What a total bummer. The service has been great, but the kitchen needs some serious improvements. Sorry. read more

The food is absolutely phenomenal! Since the first time I've come here I cant say how many times I've come back. From delicious egg breakfasts to the mouthwatering street side tacos, this restuarant never misses! Coming in at $16 one of my fav dishes is the DF street side tacos with bacon and steak and mushrooms they are just incredible and considering the portion size of 4 tacos your likely to leave feeling satisfied and satiated. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere fast service and friendly staff on top of that but the food is what I'm sure you come here to read about. read more

The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and all around a joy! We went on Cinco de Mayo and they were packed, however they were so kind and doing everything to make everyone happy, which from our experience they did! Our plates were cleared (rare occasion for us). So many different things ordered at our table and all 5 guests were happy with full bellies. Our 12 year old is a hard sell, she was so happy and can't wait to return. This was our 3rd time at Wapo's and we will forever come back! I wish I would have taken pictures, but we couldn't wait to devour our plates. Thank you for bringing this gem close to home! Love, your loyal and happy customers. read more

Delighted to have this new restaurant in our neighborhood. The food is excellent and authentic but not among the best. The margarita was watery and the food was good, but not outstanding. The staff was exceptionally good. Another downside is that the Cerveza is served from bottles and not the tap. The wine list is basically almost nonexistent and does not offer varieties that work well with Mexican food. The owner is relational, good hearted and management comes to your table. We definitely will be back and hope that some improvements be vague in these other areas. read more

All salads and soups can be ordered gluten free, and there are many vegan / vegetarian options. We ordered the lotus salad, lazeena salad, and tomato bisque. I was so jealous of the zhougg sauce on the lazeena that I ordered a side of the sauce for the lotus salad, it was an incredible addition!!

Wow, how fortunate are we to find this unicorn of a restaurant that serves bò kho and many…read moreVietnamese staples. Their bò kho definitely reminds me of my father's recipe, which is rich and not overly sweet. This aromatic Vietnamese beef stew is a fragrant broth infused with lemongrass, star anise, and spices. It's a bowl of distinct and complex flavor profile that balances savory, sweet, spicy notes, with a vibrant brick-red color from the annatto seeds. The cuts of beef shank, flank, and chuck were soft so you know they spent hours simmering to achieve this level of tenderness. The deep beef profile is highlighted when adding bean sprouts, Thai basil, lime juice to cut through the richness and carrots provided a natural sweetness to the savory broth. Bánh canh is a Vietnamese noodle soup featuring thick, chewy noodles made from tapioca flour, rice flour, or a mix, served in a flavorful broth with various toppings like pork, shrimp, crab, or fish cake. The broth is clean from the hours of simmering bones to create a savory, collagen-rich base. You can taste the freshness of the soup garnished with fresh cilantro, green onions, fried shallots, lime, and chili oil. Plus you get a boat load of proteins and garnishes - shrimp cake, imitation crab meat, shrimp, quail egg, mushroom, tapioca noodle, onion, cilantro and black pepper. We'll be back and try the bún bò huế and cá ri.

Service was decent, like any fast casual. Nothing to call home for - they take your order and bring you the food. You get your own water/fountain drinks... and you get your own sprouts and basil at the station. The veggies were fresh and love that you can get as much as you want. You also get your own utensils and napkins. The amount of food you get for the order was plenty. I love the stainless steel bowls vs melamine at some other places. The not so good: The pho overall was decent but way over seasoned. I probably could have asked for a cup of hot water but they were looking to close 50 mins before the closing hour posted... so I hustled. The over seasoning has happened the last few times I've been here... I think maybe they are tailored to the local palate. The lady went around and cleaned up the tables around us when we were eating, I'm not sure what was in the solutions she was spraying vigorously around us, but made me feel nervous about the spray getting in my bowl of soup. Maybe it's her way of making us eat faster. Lastly, the last few times I've been, the floor was extremely slippery... it's one thing if I'm just sitting and enjoying my food, it's another when I have to go grab my own stuff and put my plates away. Definitely a hazard for the customers. I did notice a lot of their business is from take out so maybe not as big of deal... but if I have been here mid day, afternoon and evening... all are slippery... they might need to look into better cleaning methods for their floors. Maybe I'll come by to try the banh mi next time and skip their soups....

Wapo's Cantina was amazing! We shared the combo fajitas, carnitas street tacos, rellenos, and a quesadilla--every single dish was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. You can really taste the freshness and care in each bite. The staff was just as impressive--friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. The atmosphere is trendy and vibrant, with a cool, modern vibe that adds to the experience. Just a heads-up: many of the tables are low to the ground, which might be a bit uncomfortable if you have back or knee issues, but there are a few standard-height tables available too. Can't wait to go back! read more

This place is a gem! The interior is absolutely beautiful, and the seating is super comfortable with plenty of TVs to catch the game. I can't wait to come back during the summer months! Monday is happy hour all day, which is such a bonus. The salsa was incredible, and the food was even better--my husband loved his fajitas, and my carne asada plate was perfect. We left so happy and completely stuffed! Plus, our waiter was so charismatic and made the experience even better. So so excited to have this spot so close to home! read more

All the ingredients tasted store bought, and was cooked with minimal seasoning. No spice or kick to any of the dishes. The salsa was good, but everything else was a let down. Price for quality I say the menu needs a large improvement. Experience: I ran a Mexican restaurant in Austin, Texas for years.

They have a very large menu- everyone will find something they can enjoy. Lots of kid friendly options. The table chips and salsa are average but also still complimentary. I ordered a frozen peach margarita and it was smooth and delicious. We ordered a quesadilla, lamb birria tacos and fried ice cream and ate every bite. Prices are reasonable for the quantity of food. If you haven't checked it out yet it's definitely worth a visit!

However, when we got home we realized our food was cold. The rellanos were soggy despite not being smothered, and the cheese in the enchiladas wasn't melted. Our food was most likely sitting there the whole time he was waiting. There were no rice or beans included and each combo plate was $18!! I know times are hard, but that's insane. No other Mexican place we eat at costs this much and they all come with rice and beans. This is the second time we've tried this Wapos and both times have been awful so are scratching them off the list.

Let's go through each stage. 1. Quickly presented with water and chips and salsa. Both were very traditional and quite good. 2. Ordered two Ana's marg no salt and they were quite tasty. Nice balance of sweet and sour, shaken so they were nice and cold. Good enough we had a 2nd round. 3. The food, the wife ordered two fried tacos and I ordered to pork burritos. My wife was stuffed after eating her two tacos and I got two good sized burritos smothered in green chili. The chili isn't hot but very good flavor. I finished one burrito and brought the other home for the next day. Now the real question, will we go back. 100% !

Food is always good. Nice little place in Broomfield. Can be a little busy but it is worth wait.read more

Once everything was finalized, we needed to make a last-minute change to the agua fresca, and Alex was able to make it happen--even though our order had already been finalized and the party was the very next day. The experience got even better on the day of the party. The team arrived early, was extremely professional, set up all the stations, and immediately got to work prepping everything. By the end of the party, every single guest was complimenting how great the food was! We ordered a little too much, which actually worked out perfectly because we got to enjoy the leftovers for another couple of meals. Great customer service, professional setup, and amazing food. We will definitely be using Vatos Tacos and Tequila again!

Went here in the afternoon thinking it was going to be good, but unfortunately I was disappointed…read more I ordered horchata, Jamaica, and lemonade, and all three drinks tasted very watered down. When I went inside to ask for a refund, it looked like they were serving what was left over from the morning and didn't want to make a fresh batch. They blamed it on the ice, but the ice hadn't even been sitting in the drinks for a minute. I also ordered churros, and by the time I got home--which is only about three minutes away they looked more like pudding than churros. I was expecting regular churros, but they came with a lot of extra toppings and sauces that I personally didn't enjoy. As someone who is Hispanic and really enjoys Mexican food, I honestly would not recommend this place. The food was okay, but definitely not amazing or worth going back for.

We did take this first order home to eat as we had family in town and we wanted margaritas to go with the meal. They are still waiting on their liquor license so to go it was this time. The barbacoa is amazing and we also tried the tamales. They were flavorful once some of the masa was off but that's a personal opinion on how I like tamales. The veggies that come with the food are always a great and I appreciate them coming with the meal. We were so hungry I forgot to take pics but we will be back!
