The cook oh my god!! for every dish he prepared did not wash his hands, nor wore gloves. The bigs issue he wiped his hands on his apron every time he touch different foods, rubbing bacterial on every thing

EXCELLENT FOOD & HORRIBLE SERVICE. 1. Waitress forgot to bring water. 2. They messed up my order - they fixed it immediately. 3. They mopped the floor around patrons with a strong Fabuloso scent - not exactly what you want to smell when you're eating.4. The waitress NEVER returned to our table to pick up dishes or to ask if we needed something else - the waitstaff was rolling silverware when they were not taking orders. Too bad because rhe good is very tasty.

Definitely a solid place to get tacos when its really late. A bunch of friends and I came here right after going to the Two Brothers Roadhouse. We were able to get good solid Mexican food at great prices. While not the best Mexican place I have ever been too, the food was still quite delicious. I definitely recommend this place if you are in Aurora late at night and are feeling really hungry.

I wish I could give 0 stars. I came in with a colleague for dinner and it was mostly empty. I had to ask the waitress 5 times for water even after she brought out our food. She couldn't have cared less about us. Insanely small portion of chips and salsa. Disgusting single bathrooms that didn't lock. I wouldn't send my worst enemy to this restaurant. Don't even ask me about the food.....

I celebrated my graduation this evening in this great place. Well we enjoyed a fabulous evening and the restaurant was certainly the reason for this strong gathering. The crew helped in a graceful manner, the cuisine was yummy and my guests were so pleased. We shall absolutely return for more celebrations. thanks very much.

This is probably one of the most unappreciated Mexican restaurant in Aurora, they're food it's great and very authentic yet they are not always busy, we have eaten here about 15 times and the quality is always the same their portions are big and they're staff always very friendly it is a place you have to give it a try, get past their curve appeal and enjoy an excellent Mexican food very inexpensive that will always leave you satisfied.

Honestly the food isn’t bad, it just seems that every time I go they raise the price! Which I wouldn’t really mind too much BUT the service gets worse and worse! The waitresses are incredibly unprofessional and rude!

First time here and last. The place was clean and good service but I ordered a steak Huarache ,the dough was hard, no flavor in the steak. To drink I ordered an orchata and it was the worst I've had, my wife ordered tacos and they were ok ,but her drink was amazing she ordered agua de tamarindo and it was the best.

The to-go meat on the tacos won’t be the same as eat in. That’s a pretty shady move.

Service is okay depending on which waitress you get. the food is always worth it. I'm never disappointed. (Although I wouldn't recommend their barbacoa tacos) I do recommend the chilaquiles!! those are my favorite item on the menu.

This place is disgusting . Worst place in aurora. The waitress are rude and SCAM YOU!!!! . I left the tip in the table and when I went to pay they gave themself in extra tip on my card even when I told them that I left it in the table . When I asked for my receipt they didn’t have paper . When I check my card statement is when I noticed I was over charged . I called them and try to talk to the manager the waitress would never let me talk to him or know when he would be in . The owner NEVER CONTACT ME BACK !

I wanted to have a taco and a bowl of pozole, which they only have on weekends, but for some reason this weekend they didn't have the soup. So I had 3 tacos instead. They were good, but the meat seemed a bit fatty. The salsa was good - lots of onions in it, so it was spicy. The chips were fresh, and may have been made onsite, but they were a bit heavy for my taste. Service was great, as were the prices.

Since moving to Aurora, I've been on the hunt for the perfect taco, but whenever we go out it always comes down to weighing the potential disappointment of not getting a great taco when we can just go to Taqueria El Brasero and be guaranteed great food instead. It's become our default taco place, and I can't really complain too much about that. Their salsa is served warm, which I love. Their guacamole, while feeling on the expensive side, is incredible. I've never ordered anything here that I didn't like, and better yet, it's seemingly always open regardless how late I go there.
