“I just ordered some Asada tacos ? for the 1st time and Oooh myyyy - I’m 50 years old and these are the best tacos I’ve ever had!! And service was Great also!! A+ in my books!“

“Amazing service, great food, and over all amazing experience. Highly recommend the tacos and the tres leches cake. 🍰“

“comida muy buena, un servicio por parte del mesero Daniel, volveremos pronto“

“Definitely our favorite place in Lone Tree! Love the margaritas, guacamole, chili-queso, Oaxacan chicken and carnitas. Craving it all right now!“

“My husband and I love this place! The shredded beef burritos are excellent and we always get them smothered in green chili and the green chili is fabulous! The owners are a husband and wife team and they are always very happy to see us and come by and let us know that they are happy to see us. Also, the margaritas are great. We recommend coming here and we will be back!“

“I had the 2 amigo breakfast burrito. Eggs, potatoes,,Sausage and chorizo. The seasoning was good for medium spicey. Place was clean and cashier is knowledgeable. I just wish it was gushing with green Chili sauce. Not sure if they offered. The Pic above breakfast burrito show covered in green sauce on menu board. But, not in the breakfast burrito. $8.67 total out the door. It's at least a 1.25lbs of burrito. Plenty until dinner. I will be back but ask about it being smothered.“

“Food slaps, try the Lengua Gordita too fire“

“The food is good, I only have a small complaint about the tacos. I don't know how they know each person's tastes since they always already have the sauce and sometimes they are too spicy but they guess how spicy you are going to want to eat on the day you eat. one goes“

“This place deserves its flowers. I usually call in ahead of time place my order because the line can get very long due to its popularity during lunchtime. I’ve recommended this place to family members and friends when I first tried it 10+ years ago & it became a staple of their cravings as well. The quality of everything is still amazing, the salsa bar is unmatched, & the prices are still very affordable compared to many other taco trucks/places. My personal favorites are the Barbacoa Sopes, pastor tacos, & the asada quesadilla. You can’t go wrong with anything here, everything will have you wanting more! Specifically this Tacos Selene & La Calle Taqueria off of Alameda & Tejon, & Tacos Sarabia off 56th & Joliet are the best tacos you’ll find in the Denver metro area. (Coming from someone who’s tried at least 40+ taco spots lol)“

“SUPER RICA LA COMIDA TODO MUY DELICIOSO EN ESPECIAL EL CAFÉ DE OLLA Y LAS TORTILLAS HECHAS A MANO, LA ESPERA ES UN POCO LARGA, PERO VALE LA PENA Y SE ENTIENDE PORQUE TODA LA COMIDA ES PREPARADA EN ESE MOMENTO ? RECOMENDADO“

“Excelente servicio y atencion“

“It is better to play more variety of music, not just agricultural music. They can alter with some rock.

Parking: There are more places to park.

Kid-friendliness: With the music they play lying down or it's music for children. Very bad music.“

“Todo la comida esta BIEN SABROSA todo fresco ala orden. Siempre seguire veniendo. Se las recomiendo al 100“

“Step inside and you’re hit with the kind of energy that says, “This is not your average taco joint.” Every bite is a flex—bold, balanced, and unmistakably Sinaloan. Whether you’re rolling through for a quick lunch or posted up for a feast, this place brings the heat and the heart.“

“I have never reviewed a restaurant before because I’m super picky and prefer staying quiet as everyone’s tastes buds are different. I will say we aren’t food critics, we are just people who enjoy really good food.

But we came here to dine in the other day for the first time and it was amazing! The service was top tier, the lady behind the counter was friendly and patient with us. We would come back just for her!

The restaurant is super clean and cozy. Now onto the food - we ordered 2 bottle sodas, tacos, a tamale and a steak burrito. Wow just wow! The salsa was fresh and I loved that you can use as much as you wanted. We have gone to many Mexican establishments, but this one blew us out of the water. We have finally found our go-to spot!

We enjoyed our dine in experience and food so much that we ordered delivery the next day and ordered the same items but with more volume! We can’t wait to go back to try more items!“

“What a nice breakfast I had today!
I had the steak and eggs and it was cooked perfectly.
The staff were very nice and the restaurant is extremely clean and well ran.
Quick service with a smile as well as great food and coffee.
I highly recommend this place.“

“Sabor has great food. So far I have only had breakfast from there and it’s been great every time. I will be a regular customer for sure. Food is always hot! Staff is friendly. It’s not a very busy place as it should be! The quality is great especially for the money.“

“Super delicious traditional food done right! ✅“

“Excelente servicio de George en aurora“

“Beautiful decor great food.“

“Service was fast. And very friendly.“

“I like Mexican food but I’m not a huge fan of green chiles (I know, I know, get out of CO). Something about the flavor has always been kind of nauseating to me. But my husband’s favorite Mexican dish is a chile rellano, and he convinced me to try the one from here and OH SWEET MOTHER MARY… it is like biting into divinity. The texture is spot on. The flavor is spot on. There’s heat but not so much heat that it covers up the seasonings in the dish and ruins the meal for you. The sauce is lovely and the food always makes me do a happy wiggle. You know the one. Like when you bite into really good sushi. That one. The “this meal is worth the calories and after I eat I’m gonna fall onto the couch in sedated food coma bliss” one. So get in here and support a fantastic restaurant!“

“The asada for the tacos was tender, juicy, and flavorful. I'm very particular about asada, and this place impressed the heck out of me. Y'all should definitely check it out when you're in Aurora, CO.“

“One of the BEST CARNITAS BURRITO I have ever had. Of all the taco trucks in the area, this one is the best. Fresh Pico, great tasting beans and pork, crispy tortilla and really big. Only $9 too! I love me some taco truck and this one is Tops. I'll definitely keep coming back for more super good 🌯 burritos.“

“I am on a business trip and walked from my hotel. I had intended to go to Texas Roadhouse, but the entrance to Ajuaa! was very inviting. It portrays a classy ambience. My Margarita was enormous but well-deserved after dealing with construction and rush-hour traffic in the Denver area. My server was awesome. My Margarita was incredible! Dinner (Carne Asado) was delicious! The music and atmosphere were authentic. Definitely a thumbs-up from this customer!“

“This spot is my go-to every Sunday for a quick, cheap bite to eat. Everything I've had so far is on point. Flavor, presentation, wait time and price are great. The decor is a bit rustic. I usually get the quesadilla suprema. I add eggs of course for +(charge). The carne asada plate with shrimp never disappoints. A must try.“

“Fire 🔥 everything is delicious“

“Like walking into Mexico. Great Mexican grocery store and butcher.
The restaurant is the Bomb!
Delicious Carnitas Burrito 🌯 !
Spot on bacon breakfast burrito and Tamales. This is it. These ladies know how to cook and what real Mexican food is. I love this little restaurant.
🇺🇲🥑🍅🥓🥩🌮🌯🍬🇲🇽“

“A great place for the family. On Mondays they have kids eat free so I took the kids and they loved it. Beautiful decor and furniture with a cantina theme. The food was quick, fresh and delicious. The kids loved being taught how to make wishes and toss coins into the wishing well. Def will be a tradition for the many times we will be back. Also the kids menu is very extensive. Many mexican and American options for the pickiest child and they all loved it. Not to mention the chips and salsa was fire and included. Will def be out family spot for Monday nights“

“Good food and good service.“

“One of my favorite places! I love the staff here! The atmosphere is lively 😍 every once in a while they have life Mariachi Bands, and they will serenade you!!!
😍😍😍😍😍😍 Food is delicious! Tacos AL Pastor is my favorite 😍 and the margaritas leave me in a good mood!“

“💯 x 💯 recomendados muy bien servicio y buenos pollos 🐥“

“The burritos are delicious and so are the tacos al pastor. I'll be back to try more!“

“Look for the lush blue and green farmland panorama juxtaposing out from the questionable pedestrians hunch shuffling across the rutted sidewalks along Colfax, the deep historical pride of Denver. Here you will experience Mexican food hope located floating in the parking lot of a very vibrant tire repair place where it appears you can just drive up and they will jack up your car very quickly replacing one or four tires with not necessarily matching ones. Eat while getting fresh rubber!

On my first visit, I went for breakfast and got the b/fast burrito but instead of the default chorizo it comes with, I asked for carne asada (steak) as chorizo is one of those questionable intestinal meat delicacies that is a coin toss whether I will feel OK or if my stomach will be processing or rejecting the cursed tastiness for the next many hours/days.

I ordered it smothered which came with a solid green chili and I asked for a jalapeño as well which came out nice and roasted which slowly melted and lasted like a spicy green jalapeño jolly rancher in my mouth — sweet and spicy. Olé! The friendly ladies only gave me a red sauce, so I recommend asking for the verde (green) also as both are classically done with a medium kick.

My burro was slathered in a thick layer of Oaxaca cheese, which IYKYK. If you don’t, this is the Mexican version of mozzarella, but I swear they have the Italians beat. It is creamy and buttery and just plain delicious as it lovingly oozes across your tongue into your soul.

The beans were clearly freshly made, and the carne asada was seasoned perfectly. Overall, I enjoyed this burrito so much I only ate half of it to save the rest for later, and I’m a voracious eater. I paid $15 for this plus a Lipton tea, which was almost frozen like a slushy. So unexpected and so Mario’s Tacos!

I might not recommend this place for you ladies at night without some confident guards at your sides or at least be jujitsu-trained and packing with a heightened awareness for the unexpected. Totally worth it!“

“Always freshly made and always greeted with a smile.“

“Great ambience and great food. It was my first time going there and I was just traveling and I really had a great time! Kriseyda was really great and help with the food selections and made our time very pleasant. We love all the decorations! Thank you!“

“The pozole is absolutely the BEST in Denver! Get an additional order to take home.“

“Let me start by saying that being Mexican, I’ve head great tamales. I bought one of each first and tried them in the car before committing. These tamales were the closest I’ve found so far to authentic Mexican tamales. Starting with the size. You’re good with 2. The filling is generous and very tasty. red and pork tamales spice was on point. Mom like rajas although it was literally one pepper in the middle of the tamal (I suggest cutting them so it’s uniform) the green with chicken (usually my favorite) were ok. The masa is good. Not too thick, not too lard-y (shinny masa), could be a tad fluffier just need to mix a bit more. Price a bit in the higher side at $22 a dz but it’s a business and they’re good in size. The ONLY thing is that they’re not fully cooked. Maybe because it was the holiday season and they were rushed. I bought them while they were still hot, cooked them for another hour on low and they came out good. The staff was friendly the establishment left little to the imagination. It’s a pick up your tamales and go type of place. I’ll go back in hopes the quality is consistent.“

“Me encanto la comida, muy bueno servicio y el lugar!“

“Todos los platillos que ordenamos estuvieron deliciosos especialmente el mango aguachile y la señora Hilda nos atendió muy bien muy amable y cordial al recomendado 100%“

“I've been going to La Costa pretty up when they opened and ever since...the staff is always so warm and welcoming, the service is fast and the prices are super reasonable. More importantly, the food is Awesome!!!“

“I just happened to find this place and I am so glad I did. Good food. Breakfast Burritos are delicious 😋 the meat is tender the potatoes crispy and well cooked. Oh my gosh! I love love tacos and when I say they throw down; they throw down! Even the salsa is 🔥. Okay I'm done gushing lol 😆 but stop by there it is worth it!“

“Great tasting authentic Mexican food. The people friendly and give great customer service. The food is fantastic and very affordable. I highly recommend this place.“

“the food taste was terrible sorry but not worth it,almost 15 dlls for a torta not even good and service also horrible they are rude“

“These are without a doubt, the best tacos in the area, the women here treats me like her grandson and the food is just like in Mexico. If you have ever had authentic tacos, these are the closest youll find. The quesabirrias and the pastor/ asada tacos are incredible. Ice cold Jumex, what more could you ask for“
