“Yesterday my wife and I ate here while being served by Justin. The experience was great! Justin was very attentive, regularly checking on us, anticipating refills and was over all a friendly guy. The food came out warm and delicious though the ranch was slightly watery. Over all this was an amazing experience, thank you Justin!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Chili's is always a cool option for delicious, greasy bar food. I dont eat here too often because I can't always be eating fried food and burgers but everytime I do, it hits the spot. Their sauced mozzarella bites are tasty and the ranch is better here than almost every place I've been. The margaritas are pricey but at least the make em strong. My girlfriend just gave birth and to celebrate she wanted chips and salsa with a margarita. Chili's delivered the goods.“

“The potato soup is banging 😋 crisp salad and croutons of which is notable because it stood up a 30 minute drive and 15 minute fridge venture before it was consumed... the soup was perfect temperature (not fridge lol) with just right amount of add ins. The burger was cooked th perfection and the salsa wasn't mostly water. Great job team 👏 thanks for a 10/10 meal and wait time for takeaway.“
