“Love the tacos here, but the atmosphere is crazy loud and the tables are crowded together quite close. I would be okay with this but the prices are just a little higher than I would expect as well. So with those two things, we don't frequent this place as often as we normally would a really good restaurant. But if you are willing to deal with those couple little things, and want some fantastic tacos, check them out!!!“

“Tacos Ay Ay Ay is my goto for breakfast burritos. I order 10 at a time and freeze them for a quick and tastey breakfast or lunch snack. The burritos are well priced and larger than other retailers here in the area. The service is always prompt and polite. No need to look elsewher Tacos Ay Ay Ay has what you need...and it's fun to say. Try some of their tastey burritos next time your passin by.“

“So glad Valles moved into the old Dos Wapos location. Interior has been refreshed. Servers were friendly and prompt. Food was solid - all of our dishes were tasty. Good GF options - our server was knowledgeable about which menu items to avoid due to cross contamination. Prices were great. I will go back and try their Sunday papusas, for sure!Dietary restrictions: Good GF selection“

Tacos Tepa Mexican •
1285 S Public Rd, Lafayette

“My favorite Taco Truck in all of Colorado, no exaggeration!Here's the thing: I've tried SO. MANY. TACOS over the years, you would not even believe it, that I've unintentionally become kind of a Taco snob. My family is from Texas so naturally, tacos are pretty important to us. Specifically the classic Carnitas tacos with cilantro, onion, lime and salsa. Something about that combo drives me crazy -- in the best way!So when I found out that I'd be moving to an area with a bunch of new trucks, naturally I decided to try all of them.And let me tell you... I am ONLY going here. The other ones weren't bad or anything, but the quality, flavor, and just general vibe of this place is what won me over.Staff here are incredibly kind and attentive!!!The menu is simple, but that's probably why it's so good -- it's so pure. Sometimes, less is definitely more -- and with this place it shows!!!They have drinks in coolers available! I paid $15 for 4 tacos and a Jaritos. What a great deal, and will definitely have me coming back! Please don't skip this spot. You will not miss it!“

“I cannot speak for anything else on the menu, but the Huevos Rancheros were the best I’ve had (and this is my go to at every breakfast place)! Green chili is hot but super flavorful. I requested a side of chorizo (also delish) which wasn’t necessary in the end with plenty of pork IN the green chili. Also, our 7:30 AM server on Sunday was cheerful, helpful and quick! Will be frequenting this establishment for sure!“

“So I went to this Mexican place the other day. And I’m not Mexican. I’m Dutch. Yeah, I know. I’m very exotic. And I ordered a breakfast burrito. Because why not? It’s breakfast. And it’s a burrito. It’s two great things in one. And it was delicious. It was so good. I don’t know what they put in there. Eggs? Cheese? Chili? Magic? I don’t know. But it was amazing. And I’m not even a burrito expert. I’m just a guy who likes to eat. A lot. And I like to eat burritos. A lot. And this was one of the best burritos I ever had. And I’ve had a lot of burritos. Trust me. I know burritos. Well, not really. But I like them. A lot. Did I mention that?“

“Been a fan and have been going to Efrain's for over 15 yrs. years now. However, there's always a 1st time for everything. That said, we ate in the library room for the first time on Monday! I didn't even know this room existed! Per their delicious usual, Efrain's did not disappoint. I ordered my go-to; the green chile burrito with a side of potatoes, soo good!! Service was also top-notch, as were the margaritas!Parking: They have a free parking lot but it's small and usually crowded. Street parking is available but is also limited as it's on South Public Rd; a very busy downtown street.“

“I would give Santiago's five stars overall but it detracts from the no frills Denver Mexican food legend status Santiago's has earned with consistently good food, and legendary green Chile. You will not be displeased by eating at Santiago's and will come back for that Green Chile craving again and again.“
