A trip to Crystal Park Cantina isn't complete without the wild turkeys.

Chips and chili relleno's were delicious! We could share 1 dish and were pleasantly full. Will definitely be going back.

Went in about an hour before closing, some of the wait staff decided to turn the music up so loud my wife and I couldn't hold a conversation while we waited on our food. Chicken enchiladas was a small portion, not Impressed. Smothered pork burrito was small and pork was so salty that's all I could taste for 2hrs after we left. Drinks were good, a neat little place for sure. But for a $70 bill, the food was not worth it at all!

Best mexican restaurant in Colorado Springs easily, the best food I had. It tastes authentic from Mexico homade salsas. There, enchiladas are so good, the best food I ever had 100% would recommend.

Seriously one of the best hidden gems of Colorado. Authentic food at its finest. That meat bowl is amazing, the Cantina burger is heaven. Wings are bomb. If you want an amazing experience with a date, look no further.

Delicious drinks and food was great. I wish the vegetarian options were clearly labeled on the menu. When I inquired about the rice and beans I was informed they have chicken stock.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are not labeled. Rice and beans have chicken stock. You are able to sub a side salad instead!

Way over priced 24 dollars for a small bowl of Mac n cheese the first time I got it was 13 weeks later it was 17 then a month later it was 24 dollars totally ridiculous price.

One of my favorite spots to go. Really great food, great drinks, good service, and good atmosphere. To me the Mexican food is really really good, though I wouldn't say it's the best Mexican I've had. This is a place to go for a date or with friends to get drinks and dinner.

I highly recommend the Jalapeño poppers. They were absolutely delicious, but definitely have some kick so be careful if you don't like spice.

Last thought - sometimes parking can be a pain, but there are usually spots up and down the street, even if it's busy.

I went with a group of six people on a Saturday night, and we were seated very quickly and everyone agreed that the food was great. I had the portobello spinach cheese enchiladas and they were very tasty, and the portion size was really large. In addition, the restaurant decor was really cute and the food was plated really nicely. I don't think that anything was very spicy, which I didn't mind, but if you're looking for spicy Mexican food you won't necessarily find it here. The only drawback is that it was pretty cold inside the restaurant, and the people at my table agreed. I'm not sure if there was just a draft at the table we were sitting at or if it was because we came in on a pretty cold day. Regardless, I'd still come here again if I were in the area.

Vegetarian options: There are several vegetarian items on the menu but they weren't labeled. I don't know if there were any vegan options.

Worth the the wait!

Despite the wait to be seated and served, I would highly recommend this spot. Katie did a phenomenal job despite being massively understaffed and the food is easily the best Mexican fare I've had in the wider COS area. Flavorful and bold, original but classic, and some of the best chips around. Will definitely be back!
