“The quesabirria tacos were BOMB! The best I’ve found here in the Springs. Their salsa is also on point. Great daily specials as well. I’ve never been disappointed from anything I’ve ordered there (Elotes, platano frito, salchipapas, Fresca con crema)“
“All 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me! They check all of the boxes of having a successful, yummy Mexican food restaurant! Me and my family enjoy the culture just as much as the food, and this place has it ALL! We came in an hour before closing and our server was the sweetest. He answered all of our questions, and recommend a few of the items. I will be coming back for round two soon!“
“Some of the best tacos I have had in Colorado Springs. The birria tacos are crunchy and have awesome flavor, and the consome elevates the experience. I had an al pastor taco and it was ok, had decent flavor. I had a barbacoa taco and it was very dry bit tasted good. All the tacos are stuffed with meat making them a great value. My wife had the menudo and she said it was ok. I tried the horchata, it was too sweet and made with less milk (maybe none). The salsas are provided for your tacos: green, red, and habenero. The habenero was our favorite since it had spice and good flavor. Great hours and friendly staff. Will definitely come back for those birria tacos!“
“We love El Korita! They are the best Mexican food truck in town hands down. It always hits the spot especially coming from California and being very picky when it comes to Mexican food. My husband always asks for his tripa extra crispy and they never fail at making it crispy and still keeping it savory. We come back quite often and are regular customers and they are always very kind. Definitely recommended!“
“Loved this place I got the Tamali plate. The feed was extremely authentic and fairy tasty enjoyed every bite. I also got to tacos that were extremely delicious as well. The white salsa That came with it elevated. It was extremely delicious.“
“This is the best Mexican spot in Colorado Springs. The authenticity is out of this world. Every time I want true Mexican food, this is where I go. The barbacoa is perfect and the service is great and personal every time. We’re welcomed with a smile and genuine hospitality every time. I’ll be going here for a long time.“
“i buy meat from this place all the time, never a dissepimentUpdate, meat is good not the price.I had their carnitas and they are not original, that are hard with no taste,This food might be good for some ppl but for someone like me full blood mexican, will never eat here again.“
“Best Quesabirria and comsume I’ve had by far. Quesabirria by itself was already so good and had so much flavor but dipping it into the consume made it taste even better. Their consume was perfect! Not too bland or overly salted.I also got their Pastor Quesadilla and it was PACKED with meat and lots of cheese.Salsa bar was a plus. The extra spicy red salsa was my fav and it was def spicy.Definitely give this place a try.“
“My boyfriend and I were craving some birria tacos and found this gem on Yelp. Let me just say...best tacos ever, and the horchata CHEFS KISS For chips, guac, two orders of the birria taco plate and two drinks...$38. Best Mexican food in the springs. If it were me, I'd come here rather than all the main stream restaurants.“
“Food was fast and their tacos are always a treat! My favorite "street tacos" near me. Good portions and well seasoned.I always take my food to go, so I don't get a chance to have it super fresh or eat inside. However, with the tiny tables, I'm not sure i would dine in personally..Highly recommend! Great food, very friendly staff, all around win.“
“I love this place!The one by exit 146 (off I-25) has a better atmosphere and, for some reason, is never busy.The servers at this location were great.I LOVE the tapatio burrito because it's large and like 12$They have a lot of meal options.I dont eat out often, but this is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Colorado.Kid-friendliness: There were many children, I will say, the area, maybe like the Parking lot, keep a close eye on your children, but sadly that's anywhere in the world anymore.No reason this couldn't be a nice place for a family dinner, unless of course customers were to misbehave.“
“I would say 5 star service all around! This is a little gem of a place and you won’t be disappointed, my wife and I came to try the Taco’s and the Birra and Carnitas are fantastic! It’s Hard to Find Good Birra w/Consumé thank you so much for an amazing meal and keep up the great food! We will be “
“Real flavor and good balance of spiceBest breakfast burritos I have tasted in the springs.Good pricing, love they are open earlyOnly thing I could see getting better is the tortilla, it is fine but they could level it up and I be happy to pay a little more.“
“It's been renamed since we last lived here over 6 years ago but it is every bit as amazing. The food, service, and atmosphere are all phenomenal. Wonderful!!! The drinks are soooooooo good and very well proved as well and the food!! I've been waiting for some great Mexican food for years! Thank you 3 margaritas! You made our last date night before deployment a Beautiful one to remember!!!“
“I was craving this place. Came down from Denver and my son and I had GREAT service from a true gentleman and the food was ?. They're tacos are out there. So good.Dietary restrictions: They make everything ingredient by ingredient here so you can tell them to leave whatever out and you can add whatever in.“
“We came here pretty early on a Friday however the food and service were very good, but my favorite were the margaritas which were some of the best I've had. I highly recommend this place if your looking for quick and great food and amazing drinks.“
“Hands down some of the most authentic Mexican food I've ever had in my life. I thought I was eating my grandma's food! Service was spot on! From the young man who seated us to our waitress to the bartender! The vibrant colors in the restaurant radiated the feeling of I'm hungry! Just a fabulous experience all the way around give it a try and won't disappoint you I promise! If I could give it a hundred Stars I wouldParking: It's located across from the El Paso County court on Vermont, so there's plenty of paid parking lots all up and down the block.“
“Always good food. The staff are super nice and the place is always clean, even with such a large customer rotation.Vegetarian options: Mainly a sides as primaryParking: The parking lot is small, but I've always found a space. They have a drive through and I have definitely parked at Walmart next door to eat.“
“Very good burrito. My first time here, I grew up eating fresh tortillas so it's the only way to have them ☺️ the woman who helped me was very friendly. I liked that the meat was cut into manageable pieces, not huge chunks ? maybe a little spendy for a burrito ? but I'll definitely come “
“Dos Santos gets a 10++!!! ALL the tacos we got were AMAZING!!! We started off with the Blood Orange soda (not on the menu) and the Salsa Flight, which consists of 4 different salsas and seasoned chips.We ordered the STEAK ARRACHERA, PORKY LECHON, BEER BATERED SHRIMP, CHICKEN TINGA, BEER BATERED FISH and monthly special PORK BELLY. All of these were DELICIOUS! The service was exceptional. A+++++“
“Lemme start with the customer service here is amazing! I’ve been through a few times but tonight ALAN was working the window and that kid has so much respect and super friendly. I ordered and waited. Kid was fast and on top of it. Didn’t forget one thing. Not even his manners! Whoever his mama is should be proud! I even told him that. He deserves 10stars. It was a nice end to my long day. I really appreciate how easy the menu is and how easy it is to order. Food is amazing and very tasty! Keep up the good work!“
“We frequently get breakfast for staff meetings. This is the only place I'll get breakfast burritos from. They are not hit or miss like some places, everything is good and it's always good. I haven't eaten any of their other food, but definitely great breakfast dishes. And they accommodate gluten free diet restrictions.“
“I love coming here. It’s my go-to spot if if I want some solid drinks and food. Every single item on their menu is bomb. If you sit at the bar, I hope you get Codi. She’s super talkative and always in an uplifting mood!! Check DosDos out!!!“
“By far the best street tacos I have had in town. The Al pastor mix they have is amazing. They also have birria tacos which are the cheesiest most mouth watering tacos in the world. I have gone to this truck for many years now and they are the kindest family who recognize there customers and know my order before I do sometimes. Would highly recommend.“
“Enjoyed breakfast here on a weekend. Place was busy, but a short wait for a table. Everyone we encountered was friendly, food was great, and the bill was super reasonable for what you get. Terrific red and green Chile. Looking forward to coming back.“
“Their chips and salaa with pico are amazing! Birria quesadillas made for a fantastic start. The Yucatan Lime Soup and Honey Lime Chicken Salad were both good, but no lime was provided to complement the dishes. Coconut Flan was a happy and delicious finish.“
“Update: Still great and they now take credit cards!This family-owned business is delicious. I have never had anything that I didn’t like. Their refried beans and rice are wonderful and their pork green chile and enchilada sauce are also very good. The portions are large and my husband and I usually share an entree. No matter what we ALWAYS get the limeade, even though it’s a little extra. It’s the perfect combo of sour and sweet. The owners are always there and very friendly. Cash only!“
“The food? Delicious. The service? Quick. The price? Affordable. Eating out is getting pretty expensive these days, so if I can feed my family of 3 with less than $50, then I jump on the deal. I highly recommend the birria quesadilla. Super good.“
“Tacos are some of the few in town that remind me of home (las Vegas) tripa, asada, pastor, and bierria are all recommend!!! Their green salsa is a bit on the spicy side but a good mild flavor.Sadly, government caused inflation is hitting everyone hard, especially the food industry, so their tacos are around $3 each. Still the cheapest I've found so far.“
“Had a lovely time with my friends. We ordered the fajitas and had a blast sharing the meal together, which was delicious and so fun. Would definitely come back.Kid-friendliness: We brought a kid with us and the staff were very accommodating with helping us keep him occupied and safe.“
“This is the best food in town!! Literally makes me miss Arizona so much. My heart is happy and my tummy after leaving this place. ?❤️?Parking: Parking in the back of establishment.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes you can enter with a wheelchair ?“
“Simple order of two crunchy ground beef tacos with a side of guac TOTALLY hit the spot at lunch! Packed full of fresh ingredients and only $7. Red and green hot sauces are soooo good. Used to work downtown and ate her A LOT. I remember DEELISH breakfast burritos as big as your forearm. ?“
“Amazing, authentic Mexican food! Grabbed an early supper while our car was at Jiffy Lube - I simply ordered our waitress's favorite meal (ok, you can NEVER go wrong doing that!). Dtr-in-law ordered chicken quesadillas in corn tortillas - she's stick skinny & picky, and she loved them! Your basic chips and salsa? Chef's kiss ? ? LOVELY!!“
“This place makes great authentic Mexican food and has a good verity of fresh fruits and vegetables. I also like the grill cooked food they have cooking outside every day. Great for a fast freshly cooked lunch. The people are always very friendly and helpful.“
“I have had Mexican food all over the country and I have lived in Mexico but I absolutely love ❤️ the Carnita tacos at The Fiesta Grill (Food Truck). They are so good and so simple just like you would expect them be if you got them in Mexico. If you love real Mexican tacos, ♥️ you need to stop by and try their tacos where you like carnitas. El pastor, carna Masada or torttas or anything Mexican just stop buy and see what you want to try. You won't be sorry you stoppedI stop overtime I am in Colorado Springs.“
“My first time coming here, my neighbor bought me here. I loved rice and refried beans, quesadilla was alright. My second time coming here, I bought my grandma. She's loved it, she ordered spinach enchilada and cheese enchilada. I ordered Burrito Colorado, that was good. Marco was our server, he was awesome and always had a smile. I definitely recommend coming here ?“
“Great food!Highly recommended!The cactus tacosEl pastor burritos (my fav)The birria tacos.Fish tacosCarne asada, and everything else I've had here are amazing!Love the history of the name!The salsa bar is always on point.The hot is actually a bit spicy which is saying something for me.A+“
“This Mexican restaurant is one of the best in town and the longest standing. It is so nice to have a family run restaurant with the customer in mind. We have been coming to the bean bandit, my whole life and truly love Margie and her spirit is still here. The food is still amazing and the chips and salsa are, always tasty! The service is good. Our waitress was the only one on the floor at the time we were there, and seemed to be handling things nicely.“
“Really great food and an ample amount of it - very reminiscent of pre-pandemic portions. I ordered the chicken, beef, and shrimp fajitas, which sizzled their way to our table via a friendly and very competent server. I stand corrected; there is excellent Mexican food in Colorado Springs, and it can be found here.P.S. I like my margaritas like I like my bros - big and strong. These did not disappoint.?“
“Grab a breakfast burrito and some of their hot salsa if you like real spice. No matter what time of day we visit, their food has always been excellent and the staff friendly. Real Mexican food from great people. They have plenty of parking and seating or a drive-through if you need to hut the road. Portions are large and flavorful.“
“Lovely authentic Mexican restaurant. Huge portions packed with flavor. The horchata is house made and has hints of coconut to make it unique and absolutely delicious! The hot green Chile I smothered my barbacoa burrito in was fire! Plenty of spice and flavor. Service was good, food came out fast and waitresses were friendly and attentive.“
“I seen Mr. Pollo truck by Home Depot and decided to support their business. I got the whole chicken and was surprised with the price and how much food you get. The chicken was outstanding and well worth every dollar. It also came with beans, rice and peppers. I love this place and will be a frequent customer.“
“We have been a customer for about two years now and we love this place! This is the only place we grab our tacos! It's the best, well seasoned, and just everything melts in your mouth for how tender it is. MUY BUENO!Also, sometimes they run out of meat, make sure to call and ask if the meat you want is still available.“
“The service here was very good. Server was talkative and very friendly. Also, they served very large portion, enough for the next day. I loved that they automatically served free chips and salsa. I was pleasantly surprised. I had the fajita which came out sizzling like I love it.“
“The food was phenomenal! The salsa needs to be jarred and sold! Delicious. The waitstaff was very friendly and attentive for our large party of 9. Everyone’s food was hot and flavorful. I was so excited to have leftovers! Definitely worth the stop.“
“Some of the most fire Mexican food in the Springs I’ve had yet. Carne asada was gas, enchiladas verdes buss, and the churros filled with strawberry are my favorite. Def would eat everything on the menu here if i could but probably will end up doing so over time. Sweet and speedy service.“
“BEST TACOS IN TOWN!This family owned/operated taco truck is fantastic! Fresh, homemade everything...daily specials...and wonderful service. I cannot recommend this place enough. 10 million stars! Follow them on Instagram to find their schedule.“
“I went through drive-through this evening, so I can’t speak to the atmosphere on the interior. I can say that the employee that assisted me with lovely. She was super friendly and very kind. My food was superb! The best Carne Asada burrito I’ve ever had!! Without a doubt it was fantastic, and I will be back. Thank you!“
“You are missing out if you don’t visit the el Paisa taco truck. No comparison. Hands down the BEST Mexican food! Real food! Real flavor! Real Good! Every Friday night I go to the south east corner of circle and airport cuz that’s where el PAISA is! Can’t get enough! Their barbacoa is always awesome. Been coming for a long time and every time it’s the best! Consistently Fantastic. And they are fast too! Makes my mouth water just writing this review! Seriously my favorite place to get food!!“
“All I gotta say is, as a first generation immigrant from Mexico, this is our favorite Mexican restaurant in Colorado Springs. Food is FIRE (highly recommend the barbacoa) the service is really good as well, most of the time. Drinks are really good too. They ain’t stingy wit it, I’ll say that.“
