I've decided, in the new year, I would start reviewing restaurants in Colorado since moving here. This restaurant was the first I went to and I had the quesabirria meal with consome. it was absolutely delicious! I cannot remember the name of the young man who rang me up for my food but he was very kind and the food came out in a timely manner. The prices aren't out of this world expensive and the many options are extensive and inviting! I can't wait to come in sometime in the weekend and get an order or menudo.

Love this place! We've lived in the area for a while now and haven't been able to find "our" spot. This is it!! Everything we had was excellent and we didn't even have a Torta but will be back to have one.

Very casual but nice vibes. The place was next to a work site I was working at. I got Carne Asada tacos and carne Asada gordita. The place was a bit busy so I did wait a good 10-15 minutes for my food. Maybe try calling ahead if you're short on time. The parking lot was a bit small but I was able to find parking. The lady taking the order speaks English. They have little booths and tables with TVs. Once of the best Mexican places I've had food at. I definitely want to look for more! I have to try the rotates next time.

Ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito to go. Everything is made to order and it takes 10-15 minutes to get food. Burritos are made on a flat-top and all ingredients are chopped up together leaving the burrito interior a bit mushy with little texture of the various ingredients. Tasty, but could be better from a preparation/assembly standpoint. Huge menu of Tortas and appears very authentic. Will try this establishment again.

Don't use the grubhub app. The customer service at this place was amazing. I had to reorder thru the grubhub app because I never got my first order and it took so long on my reorder I cancelled and asked for a refund. La Reyna called to check up on us and apologized for my experience even though it had nothing to do with them. I intend to eat here again.

Came here on Labor Day Monday. Pleased to know they were open on the holiday. The smell coming into the door was an authentic Mexican restaurant smell. Seems like they specialize in Tortas. My husband ordered one of their special signature Tortas, he said it was delicious and very filling. The red salsa had a smoky chipotle flavor and was tasty. We ordered the chips and guac which were both made fresh. The service from the young man behind the counter was great. He let us know he was there to help with any questions about the menu or ordering. I ordered a barbacoa plate which came with rice & beans and salad garnish. The rice was really good, fluffy, not oily like some places make it. The barbacoa was very tasty and tender. The Jamaica drink was so good, not overly sweet. We would return to this little hidden spot again sometime when we're in the neighborhood! The dining area was typical of most authentic Mexican spots similar, although the lobby area looks a bit rough, the tables & bathrooms were clean. Thanks for a great meal. We will be back!

The food tastes amazing. I haven't had a torta and agua de horchata this good since I would vacation on the Mexico-Texas border. The portions are large and for a great price. The staff was very friendly and prompt. Will definitely be a regular!

The tortas here are really good, buns are buttery and fluffy and the meat inside is tasty and plentiful. I also really enjoyed the tamarind Augua Fresca, it was sour and refreshing. The inside is also squeaky clean and the staff is really friendly. However, their tacos have some serious issues. While the Chorizo and Asada were delicious, the Al Pastor was an absolute travesty. The pieces of meat in the pastor tacos were not just re-heated but overwhelmingly burnt and black. The pastor meat was not scraped from a trompo, rather just diced and seasoned pork, really lame and not very authentic. The Lengua taco was similar, black and crispy. The last thing you would want in a lengua taco is to hear a loud crunch as you bite in. I would recommend coming in an trying a torta, they're better than average. But based on how the tacos were, the way they prepare/reheat their meat could make this a risky stop.

Gotta say it's authentic Mexican food the 3 quesobirras is fire! Comes with consume (a soup to dip the tacos) and the salsas added great flavor green is of course my favorite! Super friendly people I asked what they recommend and they didn't disappoint! As the name suggest the Aztec vibe is awesome love the art on the walls! Can't forget about the horchata comes in a huge cup definitely shareable with your partner!

Went there to get two tortas mind you they were not super busy only one person in front of me took 30 min to make them I ask for chipotle and jalapeños only got jalapeños the worker making my sandwich was cutting something up and eating it at the same time. The girl in the front was nice but seemed new had to ask cook several times how to ring me up! This place is close to my work place and I try and get them a chance once in a while but whey time is something

Chorizo breakfast burrito it's crispy, fabulous, a bit spicy and probably a good hangover cure
