Food is amazing! Prices are decent. Staff is super nice. I couldn't decide between the tacos and ceviche, so I got both 😁I love the "serve yourself" salsa bar.

I always come eat at this restaurant, but today I request small amount on harmony in my menudo. They say I can bring back. The lady did not serve right.. she told me I could not get my money back. Bad business, if manager say you can no longer come eat in their restaurant. WOW!! BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE! THEY ARE NOY THE ONLY PLACE THAT MAKE IT...WOW

The take out order I got was large and tasty, the plates average 8 dollars but are pretty loaded. It seemed like a decent place. A little tricky to get to. It is on the west side of academy and you have to be going south on academy to get to it.

Yuck. Ordered Caldo de Res which I thought had corn on the cob and maybe some avocado. ($12.99). But I got a greasy broth and soup full of chickpeas and more chickpeas. Looked at the menu and the #2 store has pictures of nice caldo de res the way I thought it was made. But what I got was just nasty. Also ordered the beef enchilada’s with red sauce which was mediocre at best and bland. It was an hour before closing time so maybe they just wanted out the door. $30+ dollars down the drain, tried to eat it but the grease just made me sick. Maybe 2 is better, but this one is substandard.

Randomly walked into this place for takeout tonight. Accidentally found my favorite mexican food place in the springs. It's crazy authentic, just absolutely delicious. The salsas they gave us were unreal.

Food was tasty. Atmosphere was nice. Sat a little close to the speaker for music so was hard to hear each other and hard to understand the server. Will sit somewhere else next time. But definitely going back.

Carnitas, a reliable staple of Comida Mexicano. It was good here, I'd eat it here again. Problem is here in Colorado, further from the border, Mexican food starts to be tailored to the taste of the local population in order to make sales. I enjoyed this place because it retains more of its Bordef authenticity.

Got the order through grub hub-carnitas, chicken fajitas and the grand burrito with ground beef smothered with green chili. Was good food- a bit salty, carnitas were superb with lots of crispy bits. No tortillas came with so the fajitas were kinda bare. No frills- we’ll eat here again. Was good.

I just stopped in to see if they had flan- And boy did they have flan, probably the best flan I've ever had (besides my grandmother's of course) if I'm not mistaken it has cream cheese in it- Delish! Will definitely make another trip back!

This is one of the best home-style Mexican restaurants in Colorado Springs. We have been here about 75 times over 4 years and it never disappoints. The food is fresh and delicious, the servers are always friendly, and the decor is homey. And their salsa bar always has variety. They also sell great empanadas and buñelos to go. This is our go-to spot after hitting the gym!

One of the better places to eat in the Springs, I love the burritos and barbacoa tacos. The food is always good and service has always been nothing short of top notch. Plus, who doesn't like to watch football and eat tacos

Pretty good Mexican food along with great service from Nilda. Food came out relatively fast although this is my 1st time so I cannot say there is a long wait since it wasn't packed. Had a good variety of salsa. I definitely visit again just to explore more of the menu. Finally a restaurant with huge cups so they don't have to refill your drink every 5 minutes.

Authentic alert authentic alert. This place is absolutely amazing. I show up on Sunday for pesola and Asada I absolutely love their salsa bar. Everything is so tasty and traditional it’s hard to leave Without a piece of traditional three milk cake. The customer service is impeccable. When I walk in I feel like I’m going to my grandmothers house. And I get to see my favorite Tia
