Lady Nomada - Mexican Kitchen

We were a party of four for a Monday night dinner. First off, it's not our servers fault they were way under staffed. He did his best given the circumstances. The entire restaurant was pretty much full and there were only two servers I saw. It took them nearly half an hour before we got our drinks. By that time the four of us got through our bowl of chips and small salsa dish, and when we asked for more salsa, he told us there was a $4 charge for a second salsa, which was maybe 2 oz. I ordered the "Best of" plate which had a hard shell taco that had been laying in sauce for so long, it was completely soggy and I couldn't even pick it up. There were multiple other little details about this experience that made it rather poor, which is unfortunate because I heard good things about this restaurant, but I certainly will not be back.

Great Mexican! Very nice atmosphere, broad menu. Very good service in spite of the restaurant being slammed. Perfect spice level for me. Very fair prices. Would return in a heartbeat.

Food is always good here, unfortunately they are not serving their amazing ceviche anymore! And when we express our feelings about it, seems like the manager and waitress weren’t very happy with this.
They send us to eat to at another restaurant; we didn’t get the intention behind this comment, but, we felt it was very inappropriate.
We were very excited to go there today, but very disappointed with the service! The hostess definitely needs to learn how to serve water with not spilling it on the table, and without the shitty attitude.
And lastly! We found hair in our food, not a good thing, never ever.
Very disappointing about tonight. We will definitely not be going back there anytime soon!

The food here used to be great, but something changed, perhaps the chef? I used to love the Burria tacos, but now they are boring. The sauce is tasteless. The nomada double decker is ok. The carne asada is extremely chewy (they cut it the wrong direction, with grain instead of against grain). The "beans" that came with the carne asada tasted like canned refried beans. The menu was simplified, but I'm afraid they simplified away the only decent dishes.

I was rather shocked by the unwelcoming behavior of one of your hostesses, Abby. She could have just been high as a kite, but when we arrived to ask for a table for 2, we got a ‘I don’t think you want to wait it’s going to be over an hour.’
We got a text the table was ready within 30 minutes.

She sat us on your stage section when there were very obviously plenty of 2 person options and did not bother to ask if the selection was okay. We had to get the waiter to move us and were moved over to the bar area. Again, we asked for a standard table not in the bar area when we checked in with the hostess and then asked for a regular table when we were being moved and ended up being placed at the bar.

Lady Nomada brings such fun flavors to Olde Town Arvada and it was really disappointing to see it being run with such incompetence.

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. What is not to like?

My teenage son ordered the quesadilla. He is a bit of a quesadilla connoisseur and says that Lady Nomada has the best chicken quesadilla he has ever had. So, take that as a big compliment.

The fajitas were excellent.

I will be back.

Parking: Parking can be rough. The street is walking only. Closest realistic parking is a block or two away. Well worth the walk. Enjoy it and take advantage of the little shops along the way.

Beautifully decorated and food and service were great. My only complaint is that the taco shell,which is pretty important for a taco, just fell apart. All three choices i had taco shell fail:(
Warming them with a little oil helps...fyi
