Food was tasty and staff were great! I got pollo asado, which was delicious with the whole beans. My husband got the mole and he said it was the best he has had in Colorado yet. My inlaws were also happy with the food.

I have never been disappointed in the meals, service, or overall atmosphere of El Tequileno in Golden. Authentic cuisine with plenty of options for meat eaters and vegetarians. The staff is warm, friendly, and very attentive. The salsa is the right amount of heat and very tasty. My favorite is the chicken mole. The mole sauce is very authentic and DEELICIOUS!
