Yelp.com Review - by Mike E.

5.0 of 5 stars. Debates on Mexican food can get just as heated as discussions of politics and religion. My bias - I lived in New Mexico and San Diego, my wife grew up in Tucson, I like to roast and peel my own green...

5.0 of 5 stars. You don't come here for the atmosphere or the service, but the food is absolutely amazing - I am a cult follower of Efrain's Bean Burrito, half red sauce, half green sauce (NOT the green chile because...

Yelp.com Review - by David R.

4.0 of 5 stars. I'm surprised about the bad reviews about Efrain's. Always busy, usually quick service (not the best service, but not bad imo), and consistently good food. The house margs served in Bell jars are...

Yelp.com Review - by Shawn R.

2.0 of 5 stars. When we sat down for dinner this evening I remembered that I had yet to review Efrain's. I've eaten here probably a dozen times and I have to admit that while the decor isn't great and the place is...

4.0 of 5 stars. On a normal night, Efrains is absolutely delicious! The best Mexican food around (and that says a lot because there are 6 other Mexican restaurants on Public Road!). Some nights, Efrains has an "off...

2.0 of 5 stars. I really wanted to like this place. We met some dear friends who were celebrating a birthday here. We had our own private dining area which was nice. The chips and salsa were good. The menu I have to...

1.0 of 5 stars. Unfortunately, this is the worst Mexican food I've eaten in Colorado. But, I'm from Texas. If you're FROM Colorado, you might like this place. If you're from Texas and love tex-mex, then this is...

Yelp.com Review - by Ashton D.

3.0 of 5 stars. This is the original Efrain's and sadly the best of them all. I've heard great things from friends about the food here, but my experience was just ok. Driving up to Efrain's I was excited! The outside...

Horrible, horrible, horrible service! Why do you employ these deadbeats?

We were rushed to the bar area for seating and totally ignored by the "We are busy" excuse-ridden waitress. We don't need an excuse, just take our order! Tables seated after us were promptly serviced and...

does the trick

It's not the highest quality food, but its inexpensive and tastey and the Margharitas do the trick, you know?

Excellent authentic mex food. Yes, the service is slow when it's crowded just like everywhere else.

This restaurant has excellent authentic mexican food - the best in the denver metro area. I love their chicken enchiladas and chicken chimis. I don't eat red meat but my wife does and she says the tamales are...

Do not miss the Chili Verde Burrito

Efrain's has captured my wife's and my heart for our favorite restaurant in the Denver area. That's a strong statement, because I like food, and Mexican food especially. Don't come here expecting to have your...

they used to be good

I was a big fan of Efrain's but recently the service and food have slipped. Just ate there tonight and the waiter didn't stop by to refill a single drink at our 5 person table. The chicken was dry and the...

Best Mexican in the Colorado

By far our favorite Mexican place in the Boulder/Denver area. This family-run business serves up amazing food (although I've never tried the "Efrain" which leaves the ingredients up to the chef's mood...

Good food!

Usually pretty busy, and a simple place. But its a pretty good food actually. They could maybe have a better variety of burritos or enchilada's, there were a few interesting items on the menu. They could maybe...

Not sure where the negative review is coming from. Perhaps they didn't call ahead and some group bypassed them. This place is most excellent. Very authentic. The service is excellent. The food is so tasty, my...

Not for me

If you like to wait over an hour and then have the hostess seat someone who arrived after you did, then this restaurant is for you but not for me. I found the food average and the service OK. We like La...
