Our server Charlie was great! I flew in From Detroit to see my cousin for the weekend and she suggested drinks at Mexico City. It was also my birthday and I was given a free bday drink along with excellent service and smiles. I insisted he take a picture with us. I wish I always received service like this and would ... recommend it to anyone who loves Mexican food and spirits with a great vibe ❤️ Read More

Our favorite steak tacos in Denver!!! These aren't in the same category as most other restaurants. They are not tiny little "street tacos." The tacos are fried and come with avocado, lettuce, and tomatoes with a good-sized tortilla. Their hot sauce is also phenomenal and really adds to the taco. Good Margs and a super ... friendly down to earth staff. Without the carne asada (steak) tacos this place would get a 4-star review, but those carne asada tacos are really that good. Yum!!! I have also found that it is better to eat there as sometimes if the tacos sit in the to-go container, they lose some of the crunch. Read More

When I first moved to downtown Denver in 2011 (lived here since 2008), I worked for the Gill Foundation which was only a few blocks away from this restaurant. As a Florida native, I was very used to Florida style Mexican food so I was very pleased to try Colorado style Mexican food and realize that it is different, ... but still just as delicious. Fast forward to today, I still visit their location because I work near the Civic Center on the other side of the mall, but everything is always perfect. Today, I was working from home and had a mad craving for their chili rellenos so I ordered them on doordash and everything was perfect. It brought me back to the first time I ate there. Also, their salsa taste just like my mom's homemade salsa and it brings me home so that is a huge plus. 😆 If you have never been there or ordered from there, I highly encourage it. Not only is there food delicious, but I have emailed the ownership with questions and comments and they always get back to me right away. That's a really good sign that they truly care about their customers. Read More
