Word Mexican food i’ve had in Denver, service was terrible. The queso and guac tasted like it came out of a can. Will never recommend or go back. Waste of money. Don’t go.

Was alright if you need a place to eat before the Broncos game. I'd recommend the tacos. Cold in the resturant which was disappointing.

Meh… the quesadilla not worth the price; dry, barely meat.. and a teaspoon of guacamole for $3,.. come on now. Rice mushy. Service was good though.

Upscale tavern offering many upscale food options. Large seating area with outside tables too. Extensive tequila and mezcal selection. Had the pan seared salmon at Cilantro which was excellent.

This place is awesome.. Great food and drinks, nice decor, friendly staff, etc.A lot of the negative reviews are really just from people going to an event nearby and complaining about a wait or slow service... If there's an event right across the street at mile high, you're probably not going to get fast service (understandably)..

I got the chicken tacos. The waiter warned me that the chicken is sweet...which I thought. "How Strange." But I like sweet so I went for it. (I am mostly a vegetarian and this restaurant does not have a ton of options for me)The chicken tacos came, the chicken. Itself was dry and strangely sweet. Almost like it was glazed...or something... but not in a good way. The appetizer, was queso bendito or some5hing like that...which was DELICIOUS!!!I got the house margaritas, which were heavy on the alcohol..(I appreciated that)The staff was super friendly and I LOVED the decor and atmosphere. They had some metal sculptures that I thought looked like they were from the local artist, Dennis West. Who's studio is less then a mile from Cilantro. (23rd Ave sculpture studo)Vegetarian options: Almost no vegetarian options. :(

The Kimi, El Porky and El Autentico tacos with a little rice and beans on the side. Cool little place with a great variety of tequila. Nice interior adds the the gourmet street tacos. All full of flavor! Even the salsa was fantastic the was just the right amount of chunkiness.#spicemeister approved.

I found it! I've been looking to find food that reminds me of home. The Mexican feel to this restaurant is exactly what I needed. The food was great, for an appetizer grab the queso fondido with chorizo, it won't disappoint.

I thought it would be just okay but it was great! For a Sunday evening it had a great atmosphere and the food (as a latina) was very tasty! Just watch out for the spice guys, they don’t play.

We didn’t eat here but we came for the “swiftinis” before the concert on Friday. It was so fun seeing all the swifties in the restaurant. The service was great and I was so happy to see they carried casa asul tequila. We had a swiftini and a shot and proceeded to the concert. We had a great experience at this place! Good service and good drinks!

I was disappointed in this restaurant. The vegan options are absolutely minimal and include an overpriced and unimaginative veggie fajita, chips and salsa (which they charge for), and a sweet, not savory veggie taco served on lettuce, not even on a tortilla! This place seriously needs to get some vegan meat options on the menu and up their game. Drinks are decent.

The place has a good look. Food was ok though very salty and overpriced for what you get. No complimentary chips/salsa as with most mexican restaurants. We were there on a slow Tuesday evening and were constantly looking for our waiter. Had to go find our own menues. Small $15 Drinks didnt come till after food arrived. Had to go to bar to get our check. Bums walking by asking for money (we were on the patio).Parking: There is a free parking lot but it is small, full of huge potholes and most always full. Can't park on federal. Side street parking is limited and you'll have to walk a few blocks in a sketchy neighborhood.

Drinks were good but don't expect a decent taco. I got two and ate em both in one bite. Smallest street tacos I've ever had for almost 5 bucks a pop. Would come back but not for

Once we were seated, we were basically left alone for about 20 minutes. I then got up and politely let them know. Host let waiter know he forgot about us. Really disappointed we then let them know again. And finally left.No bueno!!!
