Delicious Mexican food for very reasonable prices! I Love their Self Service Salsa and marinated veggies that you can snack on while dining in.

Best tacos in town!
Hands down some of the best, most authentic Mexican food in Colorado Springs. The service is quick, the staff is very kind, and the food comes out hot and packed with flavor. Whether you’re grabbing quick street tacos or a full plate, it never disappoints. Highly recommend!

1 of my favorite places for Mexican food, the only drawback is if you eat in the restaurant, you will come out smelling like the deep fryer. Their ventilation system over their cooking area must not work properly. I usually get take out so I don't leave smelling like cooking oil. I sure hope the employees do not become ill from all of the frying oil smoke/mist. Fix the ventilation in the kitchen and im sure you will have even more customers.

El Ray’s del Taco – Colorado Springs
If you’re looking for authentic Mexican cuisine at a price that’s almost impossible to beat, El Ray Del Taco is the place to go. Every dish is fresh, flavorful, and served with the kind of hospitality that makes you feel right at home.
One of the best parts? Every plate is under $20.50, with an average price of just $12.50. In today’s world, that alone makes El Ray’s one of the most affordable and delicious mexican cuisine in Colorado Springs.
The food is unforgettable.
✨ The smothered enchiladas with grilled chile are truly to die for, rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked every single time.
✨ The chile relleno plate with a beef taco on the side is another must-have. The relleno is crispy, cheesy, and full of authentic flavor, while the beef taco adds the perfect touch to complete an incredible meal.
From tacos to enchiladas to their amazing sides, El Ray’s delivers bold, authentic Mexican flavors without breaking the bank. Generous portions, great service, and unbeatable prices make this place a true gem.
If you’re in Colorado Springs, El Ray’s is a must-visit. You’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next trip back. 🌮

Atmosphere 10/10. Spice and flavor was underwhelming. We ordered the birria tacos and the consume was quite thin and lacking in flavor.

The best milanesa plate and red posole! Happy hour margaritas, salsa bar…what more can you want?! Super nice staff. Only complaint is the parking lot has a ton of potholes, but the food makes up for it 😋.

The food was okay but it really wasn't competitive with the other taco places around. They do have a very well stocked salsa bar that is delicious however the cups were not rinsed properly after washing and tasted like soap and I tried to communicate to the server who was very nice but she didn't seem to understand me. As far as the tacos go I got crispy tacos and the meat which was shredded beef that was put on there was not drained from the juices and the whole Taco fell apart from sogginess. It wasn't a horrible experience and it wasn't a great experience. Probably won't be back but I'm sure they have some good food somewhere in there.

Service was very good, nice restaurant. The food was not up to my expectations. Maybe an off day? I would be open to giving them another chance.
