50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Colorado Springs

“The food was great, I had the street tacos with rice and beans and my partner had a steak quesadilla. I don’t ever like beans but I decided to give these a try and they were EXCELLENT! Seasoned really well and honestly almost stole the show from my tacos. We were just visiting the area and it was our first time but if we ever come back I look forward to eating here again! The only negative I’d have is the service was a bit slow and we filled up too much on the chips and salsa.“

“This was my first time here and it certainly won't be my last. The staff were absolutely outstanding, and the food did not disappoint at all. Do not miss the Elote appetizer with the Crema and the queso fresco they are fire. It has a nice bite with it due to the lime juice that I've never had before,that was a five star hit. My server informed me that they were famous for their Birra tacos and had several dishes in that theme. I chose the birra quesadilla. The roast beef inside was tender and juicy. The flower tortilla was crisp and flavorful. They do not skimp on portions there was enough meat in this entrée to be a pot roast dinner. I can't wait to go back..“

“Out with my family - 2 young kids and my wife - the seated us fast and got us water and chips & salsa almost as soon as we sat. McKenzie was a great server - fast and efficient with a friendly disposition. I ordered a Margarita and the September special Steak Carbonita Chimi Burrito (dairy allergy - no cheese) and THEY NEED to add it to the menu. The Jalapeño Syrup was magic on the top of the marinated steak was delicious and the salsa flight was wonderful.“

“Absolutely the best Mexican food in Colorado! Stopped at their new location on Sinton Rd and it was delicious. The owner and his son were extremely nice and everyone was friendly and very welcoming. The carne asada was mouth watering delicious and the seafood chimichanga was amazing. We had the fried ice cream for dessert and it was melt in your mouth satisfying. We will definitely be going back as often as we can!!“

“Friendly service, good food.“

“The convenience of a drive thru is what made our decision to come here. The menu is hard to read at night but there are so many options to choose from! Customer service was great, very friendly. Food came out pretty quickly upon ordering.

I got the #18 Carne Asada Burrito with rice and beans. The carne asada burrito was massive! The meat was very flavorful I enjoyed every bite especially with pairing it with the green salsa. They do give you a good amount of rice and beans as well. I ended up sharing half of it because it was a lot lol. Hubby got the carne asada torta and he enjoyed it with the red salsa.“

“I had the chicken mole. It was very good. Everything from the salsa to the main dish and desserts was very authentic. Family owned place, they said from Jalisco. I'd go back for sure. Service was great too“

“Breakfast plates were good in quantity and taste. The chorizo wasn't the best I've had, but pretty good for the price. The mango drink tasted like artificial flavoring. It didn't taste like real mangos at all. The horchata was good.“

“The food was amazing. Very authentic!“

“A large group of us visited Los Volcanes Saturday, November 9TH and had the best time ever! The food was fantastic and came out on time even with such a large group being served! I highly recommend visiting this wonderful, authentic restaurant to experience for yourself the same dining wonder!“

“Amazing place and the staff are always super kind. Whether you go inside or the drive-thru the service is lightning quick and the food is fresh and delicious with very good portions. I can't speak on other locations because I haven't patronized those yet but the one that I'm reviewing I've been to too many times and have never been disappointed even once. The carne asada tacos are the biggest ones in the Springs. Everything is fresh and they literally never forget anything. As a local guide I highly recommend this establishment.“

“Great place for mexican. The owner recommended the relleno plate and it did not disappoint. Very reasonably priced for the menu at an average of $9 to $12 a plate. The menu is similar to the other fast food places in town, however los carnales has that family ran feel. The indoor seating is limited if you have a group of more than 6“

“We live about 30 minutes away and come here about once every two weeks. The food is just so delicious and has really big portions. It takes time but it’s very much worth it. I leave stuffed! Been my favorite Mexican restaurant for months now!!“

“First off I've been a daniels customer for a long time and today because of the attitude given to me by the young kid up front when I paid for the food that was falling apart and my eggs and sausage were so cold it didn't even melt the cheese and I was basically told o well not a bring back we can make you another I was given a attitude and basically told to f off so I know businesses don't care because they get so much business from the base but that was completely unprofessional and rude.“

“Laura was hands down the best part of our visit. Her energy, her attentiveness, and quickness made this visit want us to come back everytime we’re in from out of town. Quality and food is was perfect and portion was great! I got margarita, cantarito, flautas- and my friends got fajitas and tacos- all of them hit the spot! I’ll stop here so you can enjoy your next meal here!“

“We LOVE this restaurant. We have been going there for 40 years. They have consistently great food and the wait staff is the best!“

“I met a few guys on The Incline this morning and they were talking about great places to eat (I'm from Wichita KS) and they said I had to eat at Alfonso's. I just got back and it was the BEST burrito I have had in my entire life ! I went to the B st. location. Such friendly people, great atmosphere, and I wish I could eat it everyday!“

“Rocha’s on 8th Street is a great spot if you’re craving authentic Mexican food with a wide selection of dishes that go far beyond the typical fast food fare. The flavors are bold, fresh, and clearly made with care — from their burritos to the enchiladas, everything we’ve tried has been delicious and satisfying.

That said, be prepared for sticker shock — while it’s labeled as “fast food,” the prices are closer to what you’d expect at a sit-down restaurant. It’s definitely on the higher end for this type of establishment, which may come as a surprise to some customers.

Still, if quality and authenticity are what you’re after, Rocha’s delivers. The portions are generous, the service is quick, and the menu variety is impressive. Just know going in that you’re paying for quality, not speed or low cost.“

“My kind of Mexican, drove by and say a line at the drive thru, so I had to stop, am I ever glad I did, great food , service, and clean. We live in Black Forest, worth the drive!!
