We were staying in the Colorado Springs area, traveling, and wanted a good margarita and Mexican food for dinner. Searching the area, the general consensus seemed to be that there was not much good Mexican in the Colorado Springs area, but then I came across this gem!
We decided to take the 15 minute drive from our hotel to this restaurant in a rather unassuming nice strip mall. I'm so glad we did. This turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. I have had so much bad Mexican food and margaritas elsewhere recently, that this location was a pleasure to find. It far exceeded my expectations.
The hostess was warm and welcoming despite the restaurant being completely full and lively. From there we were warmly welcomed by our server, Mayra, who throughout the meal gave us her full attention, was warm, personable and offered guidance when picking our food. She even guided us to the Margarita tasting that my wife and I both shared (and later ordered a full margarita).
The food was fresh tasting, not too heavy, not too salty, and offered a variety of option for everyone at the table. My children even found new foods that they liked, such as the Elote. The margaritas were not overly sweet, and clearly were made with fresh juices and not pre-made mixes like many other places I have been recently.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was festive, adorned with tasteful Halloween decorations, and while it was full, it didn't feel like we were on top of the other tables.
If you live in the Colorado Springs area, count yourselves lucky to have this as your local spot. If you are traveling, like we were, make sure to stop by here if you are looking for a good Mexican food with a fun atmosphere and great staff!
