“Fuzzy’s Taco Shop in Arvada is absolutely fantastic! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and hits the spot every single time. From the tacos to the chips and queso, everything is made well and served fast, even when they’re busy.

What really sets this location apart, though, is the store manager, Amelia. She is amazing—friendly, professional, and clearly cares about both her team and her customers. You can feel the positive atmosphere the moment you walk in, and that starts with great leadership. Amelia goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly and that customers feel welcomed and valued.

Highly recommend this Fuzzy’s location for great food, great service, and an outstanding manager who truly makes a difference!“

“Legit brisket / shoulder taco - Camino. Could taste the tallow, meat had excellent bark, salsa was fresh and tasted great. Wasn't sure I was in the right spot at first as the location is in an industrial kitchen, but the food was killer. Taco was huge. I'll be back.“

“We have been dining at the Park Meadow location in LoneTree for a couple of years (about a total of ten times) as we live about 30+ miles away. So it is always a time we look forward to. Our experience in efficient friendly staff and awesome food has always been excellent. This is definitely the Mexican restaurant you would take out of town guests to.“

“Ivy is the most amazing server ever ! She was prompt and great through our whole conversation! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best green chile on the planet! Try the chile relleno burrito smothered in green chile. Your life will never be the same.“

“The food was delicious, although I must admit it’s hard to truly impress me with cuisine alone. What absolutely stood out, however, was the service—100%. Coming from the restaurant industry myself, I can confidently say this was top-tier hospitality.

We were amazed by the atmosphere! The entire team works in perfect harmony, creating an unforgettable experience. From the very first moment, you feel right at home. Every request was heard, and every wish was thoughtfully fulfilled.

This restaurant is a true gem—where exceptional service meets an inviting atmosphere.“

“I have loved this restaurant for 40+ years. Sadly, I moved to Wisconsin and couldn't bring it with me. People here in WI don't even know what green chili is. We need Taco House here!“

“Everything was absolutely amazing. Food, table service, as well as host/hostess service. The only complaint we have is that the chicken sandwhiches are way too tall. I would insert an inappropriate joke here, but then somebody would get butt hurt. Other than that, WONDERFUL experience. Had no wait time on a rather busy night. Appetizers came out quickly, and food before we could finish the appetizers. Didn't feel rushed at all. We will definitely be going back here next date night.“

“Stopped in here looking for a more authentic feel over Mister Oso and it did not disappoint. Our server Angelica was quick and super friendly and the food was fantastic and also super quick. Not many people in here and there SHOULD BE! The prices are amazing especially for this area.“

“We sat at the bar and really enjoyed the tacos! The prices are great and our bartender that day was amazing. We will be back. ♥️“

“The food and ambiance were amazing! But the tequila selection accompanied with Leo's extensive knowledge of tequila made for a truly exceptional experience! Highly recommended!!“

“I ordered takeout for dinner. The restaurant was extremely busy when I arrived. There were lines at the front door and at the take out entrance. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy my order was ready very near the time promised. All items were included and nothing was missing. The food was hot and fresh and seasoned perfectly. All the employees I witnessed were very busy and we're professional and courteous. Food was actually better than I even expected. I will definitely order takeout from Chili's again and will continue to eat in the restaurant when I am dining out.“

“wow I am absolutely amazed by the food,this is a very amazing place to eat“

“Have been going here for years sitting upstairs listening to good music, drinking margaritas & yummy appetizers. The atmosphere here is perfect and so is the service.“

“I wasn't asked to write this. Stella and Barbara provide excellent service and delicious food from the moment you walk up to their counter. They dress presentable, they act professional, and they are genuinely attentive to your order. The food is always fresh, warm and flavor is on point. The tortillas are always toasted well on the grill. Their professionalism is refreshing and appreciated.“

“This Chilis location is a great place to stop by for a meal. We like to sit by the bar bc of the server Jen. She is very friendly , very prompt , and more than likely will remember your face. This location has always been clean including the bathrooms. The food is always served hot . There are booths and tables unless you’d rather sit at the bar. Plenty of TVs to watch. The sound is normal where you can hear the people speaking at your table. There is plenty of parking and you can see the restaurant from the street. There are lots of other businesses around it including shopping. Grab a bite after you’re done getting your vehicle serviced , doing some shopping , getting groceries maybe. Don’t forget to check the specials , your rewards , and any happy hour deals.“

“My friend and I arrived early and let Kenna know we were waiting on others to join us. She was so understanding and patient, even though she was super busy. Despite a small mix-up with the order (which she quickly fixed and took off our tab), Kenna stayed apologetic, attentive, and kind throughout. Overall, she did a great job. Thank you, Kenna, for the great service!“

“amazing food friendly service the best chile in the world 💯💯💯♥️“
