We stopped in this restaurant that is celebrating 54 years today. I had the chimichanga, and my wife had the fajitas, and they were great! The chimichanga dinner was presented well with half an avocado and tasted great!
The green chili here is amazing, and the salsa is to die for.

Don’t go! The host was a very nice man, that is the only positive thing I can say.

He sat me in the bar, but when I asked where the restroom was I had to walk through the dark restaurant side and down a dark hallway with my phone flashlight on. All the other lights were turned off, on a Friday night at 5:30. Made sense since the place seemed very dirty, dust clumps hanging from the ceiling and the glasses had lots of water stains.

There were only 2 other people on the place, sitting at the bar counter, but I guess they worked there because they kept going into the kitchen and behind the bar. They also had a phone conversation on speaker phone so that was annoying.

I asked for a water while I waited for my friends and picked out a margarita. The salsa is pure trash, more like warm marinara sauce.
Then as I look at my water there is a roach crawling out of my straw.

I simply left, I just could not be in there anymore.

Food is trash, when we walked in the cook was at the bar drinking. I ordered a menudo and I received menudo from a can that was barely warmed up. Fake Mexican food.

I love this place! I actually worked here 3 years or so ago. So I can tell you the kitchen & "behind the scenes" is legit. The bathroom still has the awesome decor and smell I remember. It's nostalgic of my Nana's when I was young: clean & inviting. The vibe here is sooooo on point. Usually 90s country or 70s classic rock music playing. Their signature margaritas are amazing. The food is always fresh and done RIGHT. We had the pleasure of having the owner there himself today. We used to live up in Greeley but haven't for 3 years now. So we happened to be up here & this is what we wanted for a late lunch. My hubby LOVES their shrimp flautas. They're extraordinary. You can't go wrong with shrimp, bacon, etc in the perfectly folded fried wrap of deliciousness. I really love all their food. Today I went easy & got a combo with enchilada, burrito and tostada. The guacamole is perfect. I'm really picky about my guacamole & most places just don't get it right. This place does. We left stuffed full & happy and will definitely be back next time we're in the area.

Amazing food and vibes! If you’re an American in Greeley you will love this place, Classic rock on the radio and football on tv, greeted in English and sat with a smile. Love it

Eight of us for dinner tonight. Twenty minutes for drinks. Another fifteen minutes to order. Another twenty minutes for food to arrive. Food good as usual. Another half hour wait for the bill. One person in kitchen, one person making drinks and waiting on customers. Won't be long before this one closes at this rate. Sad.

It's not Mexican food, it doesn't have a menu with Mexican food. Don't come eat here at all, it's American food.
The food had no flavor at all.
The name of the place was Mexican but as soon as you see the menu it's American food. The food needs more flavor. Wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for Mexican food
