50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Fort Collins

“Olivia C. is a great waitress! The food and margaritas were so good. The restaurant has a fun vibe.“

“AMAZING! I absolutely love their breakfast burritos, and their prices are so reasonable. If someone can take a “basic” egg, potato, cheese & chili burrito and make it something you actually CRAVE, you know it’s good! 🤤 Everything is always made fresh, too. And I have to say, their chili is SO good—it really makes the burrito! 🌶️ I’ll admit, I’ve been sleeping on this place, but they are officially my new favorite breakfast burrito spot! I’d say it’s better than Consuelo’s for sure! 🙌“

“Visited Fort Collin’s today and randomly chose to eat here as it was a convenient location. Wow!! I had a medium combo with Chili Relleno and a Chicken Taco. The menu said it was served with beans but it came with beans, rice, lettuce and tomato. 👍🏼👍🏼 The service was excellent, the food was excellent - I really enjoyed my lunch, thank you Pueblo Viejo!! I will be back on my next trip to Fort Collins. 😋🇲🇽🌮“

“Good tacos but expensive burritos. We went two weeks in a row and four tacos ended up at $14 which is reasonable. Last time a ham quesadilla and two burritos came in at $38.25. Unfortunately I can only recommend the tacos for the cost.“

You could tell they genuinely cared about the customer experience. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot with great vibes, excellent service, and unforgettable food. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to!“

“La Buena Vida is by far my favorite restaurant in CO! Not only do they have exceptional service, but the food is outstanding!! It’s well presented and full of Michoacán flavors! If you are a foodie this is a MUST!! Margaritas are to die for!!!“

“Really awesome in every way! As good as the Rio!!“

“Follow up review. The quality had decreased for quite ahwhile here but it does seem like the issue is being addressed. The last two orders we've received from Vatos were great quality. The steak was less gristled and better cooked, the sides are better, and the chicken taco was good again. (It was shredded chicken in our recent order, in spite of the manager comment in another review saying they never had shredded chicken. Yes they did. And they're doing it now again. It was cubed for awhile.) Regardless, great improvement and back to your historical level of quality!“

“La Campechana has quickly become one of my favorite spots. I've been slowly eating my way through the menu, and everything I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The empanadas are absolutely amazing—crispy on the outside with delicious fillings that keep me coming back.

My newest favorite is the Torta Hawaiana. It's loaded with flavor, perfectly balanced, and one of the best tortas I've had. The staff is always friendly, and every visit has been a great experience. If you're looking for authentic, delicious food, La Campechana is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back to keep working my way through the menu!“

“Kaleb deserves a raise... or at the very least an extra scoop of queso. Dude was friendly, fast, and somehow managed to keep a great attitude while dealing with the lunch rush. He made my burrito like it was the most important burrito of the day, and I respect that kind of dedication. Great customer service is getting harder to find, but Kaleb absolutely nailed it. I'll definitely be back—partly for the food, but also because employees like him make the whole place better.

Kaleb… you tha man!“

“I went to the CSU Lory student Center - the only Taco Bell that still has the new Shredded Beef Grill cheese dipping taco in Northern Colorado. I would order this all the time, if it wasn’t a limited menu item. Tasted great with the red dipping sauce.“

“Excellent food, service and now open 24 hours! Highly recommend!!!“

“Of every qdouba, this is the best one. The environment is a comforting vibe, the employees are always respectful and fun. And the food, omg, that's perfect. I highly recommend it. I want to shout out to employees that treated me so well, Chais S and Diego V. Both of these employees did a great job even though they are so young, truly exceptional young men“

“Excellent dining excellent waitress“

“Always excellent authentic Mexican food! Very reasonable prices! Not usually a wait line, but maybe every now and then you might have one or two people before you. There is sometimes a picnic table outside, otherwise it's a to go order.“

“Awesome personnel, good breakfast! Food is good and service is quick“

“Best place to get Mexican food. They have a restaurant in Greeley that was so popular that they were able to open one up for us in Fort Collins. I'm so glad they did. They have a huge variety of food items to choose from. My favorite is the lengua tacos. They are big and filling. One is plenty for me unless I'm starving, then I go for two and then I'm too full and say I should have just stuck to one. LOL The lengua is the best I've ever tasted. It's so tender and delicious. It's a MUST try when you go. I've tried many different dishes and they were all fantastic. Also, the best customer service ever. Everyone is so friendly. You can't go wrong here. Try it, you'll like it.“

“Illegal Pete's is a bar & Mexican food restaurant. It is counter service & you customize your order like subway, etc. The food is good the portions are generous & the Mexican coke & squirt are a welcome touch. You can do 3 tacos, burritos or bowls for the same price.“

“Exceptional service from Madison, Ned, and Ally. So friendly and the food was amazing! They put up with my intense questioning to be sure I was getting items without dairy and offered wonderful and tasty suggestions (like the Verde oh my gosh so good!).“

“Since moving to Loveland, we’ve struggled to find authentic Mexican snacks that compare to the spots in Denver, until now!
We drove about 20 minutes to try the elote chorreado, and it completely satisfied our craving. It was absolutely worth the drive and the aguas frescas 10/10. We will definitely be back!“

“Have you met Rachael?? She is the bartender who took care of me. She was on point! The California heat tacos were fantastic!! I had mine prepared with the tempura shrimp, with a nice shot of butt burning habanero sauce. The sides were black beans with the cilantro rice. The rice was the perfect texture to accent the cilantro flavor. I mixed the beans in cause I’m that guy!! All around 5 stars.“

“Las mejores nieves y botanas“

“Had amazing fish tacos and unexpectedly caught the end of an Ohio football game here. Fun group and great food.

I tried a both a blackened and a fried fish versions and both were great though personally I preferred the blackened version. Would like to try the famous fish and chips next time. Don’t miss the wasabi sauce. I’m a spice wimp so I got it on the side but it wasn’t hardly spicy.

Don’t miss out on signing up for their rewards program too! Will definitely be back when I’m in the area again.“

“Placed a mobile order & it was ready just in time! Portions were perfect and filled me up!! Everything tasted wonderful, especially the steak ugh!!!! :) front counter employee was super kind and polite and I wish I received this level of customer service at other places. Yall are doing great!“

“very goood yummm dinner was served“

“I had a great experience at Café Rio! The food was absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly prepared. The staff was exceptionally friendly and welcoming from start to finish. I’m not sure what the supervisor’s name was, but she went out of her way to check in with us and make sure everything was perfect with our meal. Out of several restaurants I’ve visited recently, Café Rio easily stood out for having the best customer service and overall dining experience.“

“The drinks it’s really good !!“
