We were driving from Ft. Collins to Denver and looking for somewhere to eat Mexican. I found this place and give a try since those pics of foods looks great. The restaurant was easy to find, the music sounds already Mexican. When we went inside, all the stuff were smiling and friendly. My husband ordered Cadillac margarita and it was Sunday so he got 2 for 1 price! He said it was super good. I ordered shrimp and that’s so delicious. We will definitely come back!

I was very surprised by this resultant. Had very good food. Food was prepared well and had very authentic flavors. Would highly recommend the chili rellenos, they were delicious. The chicken tacos were also very good. They had fresh made tortillas with two types of salsa, the verde was wonderful. Defiantly worth a try if you are in the area.

Really delicious Mexican food with a very large menu. We sat out on the patio because it was so nice outside. It was pretty busy and we could tell the servers were working hard but service was a bit slow. Though the food came out quick once our order was in. The strawberry margarita was delicious! The chips and salsa were so good and very fresh. I had a beef burrito and my friend had Chile rellenos. Overall very happy!

Meh. Reading the reviews online made us think it was going to be awesome. For the $26 beef fajitas you’d think we could make more than one fajita. The meat was chewy and full of gristle and fat. The $28 chicken and shrimp fajitas came only with shrimp and again… not much. Not nearly worth the prices. And honestly, subpar period. I’d pick a cheap chain over this place

Chachos. Now that I got your attention for my Texas peeps, this is the closest thing Ive had to Chachos in Colorado. Yep if you know, you know….. Margaritas are strong and very tasty (get a pitcher of the cadillac). Order the habanero salsa (not on the menu but ask for it, its way better than the regular red and green. Im not a fan of the chips, they taste store bought. The havanero salsa though is fantastic. The tropical shrimp skewers were absolutely fantastic and the crab shrimp ceviche was also really good. Our waiter Wally was extremely pleasant and very attentive even with all the people he was serving. He had a smile the entire time and took very good care of us. I hope management takes as good care of him as he did for us.
My only downsides were the chips (ok but ive had better) and the fact that we are in a parking lot with no good view but thats not their fault. Its a good size patio and everyone is happy. This place would be perfect as a lake front restaurant.
5 stars still holds firmly.
