I honestly don’t know how this place is still open. When I went there, nearly all of the lights were off- including in the kitchen. There was only one person in the restaurant, and he both took my order and made the food.My order took about an hour to be done which was upsetting but I tried to be patient because there was only the one person there. However, the meat was literally rancid. You could tell by look and smell- but I even tasted it just because I thought I was overthinking it and perhaps it was a seasoning or something making it seem like it was rancid.Nope!! It definitely was beyond a doubt. I don’t know how anyone could serve someone that and not notice. Disgusting! This place should honestly be shut down.

The thermometer read 47° when we went in there… I knew this wasn’t going to be a good experience. It wasn’t. I got a three taco dinner. The last beef taco was so bad that I could not eat it. I took one bite it was so terrible. I left it. The fajitas were terrible. No hook up to sink in men’s room. We will never go back there again. Big mistake.

I have a soft spot for this restaurant. The food is great, the portions are large, and the price is reasonable. The owner takes the order cooks it and brings it out. Expect a wait even if you are the only table there.

Great service and definitely authentic Mexican food

On the one hand I feel bad rating this place when we didn’t technically eat there. On the other hand, reading these reviews, perhaps we dodged a bullet. We arrived an hour and a half before close and despite the sign out front saying they were open to dine in, we walked in and the lights in the kitchen were off. A man came out and apologized and said he only had take out tonight. Also, there was a very strong smell of natural gas on entry. If it had been my restaurant I’d have been calling the fire department for fear of a gas leak.

Don't do it. The guy was cool so I paid him but otherwise I got scammed. Everything microwaved here don't be fooled. Ordered authentic mexican style tacos and got rancid tasteing ground beef with onions. Looked like a sloppy Joe in a tortilla. Boss ordered chicken tacos because they guy said he wouldn't cook steak and started puking before we drove off saying he had nasty taste in his mouth and felt bad. Was charged around $15 a plate and will never be returning. Place should be shut down honestly would no star if I could.

We called an order ahead. We were told 40 minutes. We arrived 50 minutes later on a Saturday night to find an empty restaurant and the lights out in the kitchen. Absolutely none of our food had been prepared. After another 20 minutes, we received our food, and it was absolutely horrible. It was all reheated, pre-prepared garbage that was thrown together in a microwave. The beef on the tacos was so old, it crunched on the first bite of a taco. The rest was deemed unpalatable. There is absolutely no reason anyone should ever expect "Authentic Mexican Quisine" from this restaurant.

So yummy! Was a long wait till our food came, but there was only one person there to take orders, make food, and serve, but it was well worth the wait!

Food and server/owner(?) were amazing! Every last thing was home made and authentic. Anyone looking for Mexican food, i highly advise coming here!

Food is definitely worth the wait! The owner is a kind man who you can tell has a passion for what he does. Will definitely be going back when I can!

I've gone to Colema now and then for 20 years. They have a good family and good food. Modest prices and a comfortable atmosphere.

The food was worth the wait. The owner, I’m guess since he was working alone, was kind and you could tell he had a passion for what he does!

Stood there for an hour just to get rotten food. The nachos and taco were both rotten- you could immediately smell and taste it. I second what the other review said- dark, no lights in the kitchen. Freezing cold in the building. I’m so disappointed and I just hope I don’t get sick.

Rancid smelling meat. Poor old guy was running the whole show but I wasted 45 dollars. We could not bring ourselves to eat the food the way it selled. Barely any lights on and no heat on. Super disappointed we wanted to support local. The one star is for the old man still trying to run the show.
