50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Aurora

“Muy rica la comida 😋y el servicio excelente 💯 recomendado 👌“

“Stopped for dinner after we arrived in Denver. Ordered 2 margaritas, a skinny and a mangonada. Both were large portions and tasty. For dinner we ordered shrimp and tacos and vegetable fajitas. The vegetables were very fresh and plentiful. The shrimp tacos were delicious. Ended our meal with fried ice cream, which had a nice strawberry fruit coating. Overall the atmosphere was nice and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The chips and salsa were bottomless.“

“La Comida es excellente y el servicio es espectacular“

“love the staff at Sazon, Lisha the owner, is amazing, food is always good, and lots of options for a vegetarian like me lol. live music on Tuesday nights, Taco Tuesday!“

“It's overall good and we liked the food, but the value is not quite right if I am comparing to other small Mexican restaurants. It's pricey for what you get and the quality of the food. It's not that the food quality is questionable, just in comparison to the price. There are other joints thst have similar or lower prices and the food is better. If the price was less, this would be a great value restaurant and would highly recommend.“

“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!“

“We got the super nachos with asada, and the tamals!
Super good!!! Their tamals are very different from all the sloppy ones in the Metro area. The texture is really extraordinary and they use enchilada sauce instead of green chili, which highlights the flavor of the pork!
Definitely recommend giving this one a try! We will be going back for sure!“

“My husband and I had a great experience here yesterday! The food was delicious and the staff was friendly. We ordered a smothered burrito, a quesadilla and two tacos. The Al Pastor taco was our favorite but we also enjoyed the carnitas and barbacoa. We will be back to try more!“

“Excelente servicio y atencion“

“Ecxelente servicio al cliente. la comida es de muy buena calidad“

“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.“

“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!“

“Food slaps, try the Lengua Gordita too fire“

“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“

“Best tacos in a 500 mile radius“

“We went on a Sunday afternoon, and my fiancé chose the spot. He absolutely loves Mexican food. We ordered a couple of Bloody Marys and I got the street tacos and crispy chilli renos. The flavor of the green chilli was not so hot you can’t eat it but had delicious flavor! The Bloody Mary had fantastic seasoning as well. My fiancé looked like he was in heaven with his burrito. We will be back again soon. It’s a family run place, and you can feel the love in the food!“

“Jr and his father do a great job running the restruant they are a very humble family operated business they treat the employees very well the vibe upon entering is amazing everyone immediately greets you and welcomes you inside JR is a real true leader does so much work to keep the quality of ingredients top notch and always makes sures everything is great“

“Service was fast. And very friendly.“

“We found this lovely little establishment by accident and we are so glad we did! From the moment we stepped inside, we were met with a friendly and warm atmosphere. The service was top notch. Our food arrived quickly (lots of options), piping hot, and served with love. They even gave sopapillas like I remember from my childhood. No other restaurant serves them authentically except here! It was a welcomed nostalgic surprise! Can’t wait to try other menu items. My partner said the pozole is legit!“

“We had an amazing experience thanks to Alex! He was so attentive and made my husband’s birthday dinner feel really special. The food and drinks were incredible, and his service made the whole night even better. We’ll definitely be back!“

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

“Completely stumbled into this place, was actually on the hunt for the food truck just beyond the store. What an awesome mistake. You walk in and turn left for amazing authentic Mexican food. We don't speak Spanish, but the staff was really awesome with us. We had the asada tacos, chili relleno burrito and asada burrito. Everything on point, delicious. Wish this place was closer to the springs but if you are at the soccer and baseball park across the road and have a ravenous teenager after a match, this is the place to go!!“

“this food truck is such a great find!! The people running it are so kind. The food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. You can tell everything is made with care, not rushed or thrown together. they definitely care about what their serving. The portions were more than satisfying, and for the price, it felt like a great deal. The whole experience just feels easy and welcoming. definitely recommend!!!😊“

“I found this place about 3 years ago and loved it ever since customer service is great food is great. Jessica is my favorite we go see her every weekend sometimes twice we go and eat and talk to her she has great customer service. She is always happy with a smile with everyone literally. Love this place Jessica is the best!!“

“Great local spot! Foods always hot n fresh!“

“Good food and good service.“

“Best Carne Asada anywhere!“

“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!“

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

“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!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“I love their food and the people and the music 🎼 and the way they treat their guest and they are clean and they serve their costumers like they were family and yes I just loved it there when my husband Antonyo took me there when we first met,and we had a awesome time there and they speak Spanish and English, and the waitresses are amazing,so go ahead down to Real de minas Mexican grill and enjoy your enthenic mexican food and the music 🎼.“

“I've been eating at this restaurant for many years and, believe it or not, I've never had a bad meal...ever. It is packed 7 days a week and there's a reason why. Beyond the great variety of food with breakfast all day (139 menu items {not including 29 drink}). the help is absolutely incredible. You can tell they love the manager, Carlos, because they function as one big family. I'm 72 and have eaten, through my career, in countless restaurants in numberous cities and for the money (quite reasonable) this is my #1 favorite of them all (including many 5 star, exclusive restaurants. You won't find Beef Wellington, Duck à l’Orange,, Lobster Thermidor, Seafood Paella, Foie Gras., or Caviar on their menu, however; Escargot if you love real scratch Mexican/American cooking“

“Tacos were delicious and a great price! Tried pastor, birria, and carnitas and all were great. Staff was very kind and would certainly visit again. Great food truck option just a 5 minute walk from Peoria station after taking the airport train!“

“Quesabirria tacos from an awesome family owned and operated business. Erika and family always make you feel like you’re enjoying food at home and everything is delicious!!“

“I Love The Consomé It’s Delicious! 🤤 10/10 Great customer service !😊“

“Soooo Good! Tortas are huge“
