Honestly how could anyone give this a less than 5 star review Ive eaten at every single Mexican restaurant in metro Denver and outlying but here is in Colorado the New Mexico Arizona and Im just actually in love with food that being said I dont understand Harold Iman. Detract just food the service the atmosphere this is truly me finance Mexican fare of my friends directly from Mexico City that when they come here thats where they want to eat cuz food from home Ive missed you shift the cups spokes are the real deal now if youre looking for Tex Mex maybe thats why youre not but I encourage you to there was a truly love Mexican food to give this one to go!!!!

The food is pretty good and was out immediately. The peach margaritas are amazing. The waitress we had was very RUDE! I think she had the hots for my date or didnt like the fact i was white. Upon ordering the waitress acted like she couldnt understand me. I had to open the menu and show her. I ordered the Burrito Dorado. I know my spanglish isnt great but really?! My date, who speaks spanish, said i pronounced the plate just fine, she wast just being difficult! She was very friendly to my date, but to myself she was rude!! I will not be back just because of our waitress last night :( i will be calling this morning to complain.

A sign of excellent quality is when a restaurant makes you wait a second to make sure your tortillas are fresh and hot when you pick up your to-go order. I moved here a year ago and have eaten at more than a few Mexican places, and sadly, have been dissappointed every time. Except this one...... These guys and gals know what their doing. Every single thing I ordered looked and tasted like it came strait out of someones dear old grandmothers kitchen. The combination for one I ordered was more than 2 of us could put a dent in,, so come hungry, and make sure you try the mushrooms;)

I went here a week ago for the first time and had their carne asada lunch special. DELICIOUS. So tender, juicy and flovorful and with a big dollop of guacamole. I wtook my mom here tonight and had the chimichanga dinner special, so crispy, moist and flavorful!! Also had 2 for 1 house margaritas, add a dollar for double shot or high quality tequila. GREAT MARGARITAS! Also Thursday night they have a mariachi band which was very fun, they take requests and are extremely fun and social!!! GO here is you love Mexican food and wonderful service!

The food here wasnt amazing, but fairly good - good enough that I ate and drank more than I would usually. The service was pretty fast and friendly. The house margarita were fair, and the specialty margarita was excellent. The place is very popular, doing a very brisk, family-oriented business for a Tuesday night. And the best judge of all is I left overly full and very happy so the food and drinks were obviously decent enough to make for a pretty enjoyable night out.

Probably the best Mexican food Ive found so far, in Colorado. Not Tex-Mex, not Colorado-Mex but Mexican food. If your from So-Cal (like me) and are craving the kind of Mexican restaurant you would find back home, then this is your place. My only criticism is that they dont serve fresh fried tortillas with their crispy tacos, the taco shells are preformed a la Taco-Bell. I guess most people just eat soft tacos nowadays anyway...Everything else was excellent!

Love this place! Chips and salsa are always delicious and plentiful. The staff is so attentive and friendly. Never have to wait for a refill and they really all seem to really like working there (never see a frown or bad attitude). Love the cabbage slaw they give you with the salsa -great together once I realized thats what its for. Atmosphere is very clean and cheerful. Food is decent, pretty typical. Very affordable lunch menu 7days per week.

Terrible. Save your money and go to Taco Bell. I ordered the beef enchiladas what I got was a tray of slop. Everything was wet, swimming in water. The beans had no flavor. The rice had GREEN BEANS in it. Green Beans! The enchiladas where covered in a half a tub of sour cream. The meat was Taco Bell quality. And to top it off there was lettuce covered in Italian dressing (WTH?). Dont waste your time.

We used to love this place we would go every Sunday after a long race weekend or dirt biking the last few times we went it was so bad we couldnt eat it the service sitting at the bar was the worst Ive ever gotten anywhere and we eat out a lot they didnt bring the right food to top it off it was way over cooked and dry and when we Told the lady she rolled her eyes and walked away Ill never go back

MIXED REVIEW! Usually we like the food a lot and the service is good as long as you are sitting in the Bar area. LAST NIGHT the food was COLD. When a "manager" asked us how everything was and I mentioned that my food was cold, he said hes look into it, and NEVER RETURNED. Very disappointed!!!

My husband and I went here for lunch. The food was amazing, service was friendly and fast, and the prices were great! You get a lot of food for the price, next time Ill half my portion in a box when it comes and have lunch for the next day too! Today, however, I just HAD to finish my plate! :)

Ordered shrimp cocktail for pick up. Paid $35 for two orders of shrimp cocktail. Big containers with mostly juice very little avocados and shrimp. was very disappointed in my experience with this restaurant. I have had some shrimp cocktail cocktail at other restaurants and was satisfied.

“Best Eatery on the west side of Town” This place is incredible. Warm open and inviting staff. The food is comfort but with a twist. I have never been disappointed here and have tried many entrees. My favorite is the pork chop! Try it you wont be disappointed.

This has become our favorite Mexican restaurant. The menu is extensive; they make almost every traditional dish one can think of. Portions are so generous there is usually enough to save for another meal. They make great margaritas in a fun atmosphere

Waited ten minutes only to be seated in a busy walkway. When I said I didnt want to get bumped all thru dinner, he seated me next to the restrooms. Literally staring at the restroom doors. I left. Money is apparently far more important than service.

We had a great experience at the Capital Grille. We went super early one night and the staff treated us so well. They were very attentive but not intrusive. All of our questions were answered without condescension. We never felt hurried or rushed.
