What turned into a random pull off turned into one of the better decisions I’ve made in my life. The breakfast burrito was so good, and reminded me of simplicity and beauty of the world we live in. Definitely worth the stop!

Really cute Mexican shop with great treats and amazing homemade Mexican food! The store owner, David really makes the experience. This little store is busy, but worth the wait! I highly recommend! Even if you don’t speak Spanish you will feel comfortable! Try it!

If you're traveling through on I-70, stop by this restaurant! We got bacon breakfast burritos. I really wish we had a place back home that's as good as this place! Very flavorful and scratch made.

This was a great find. Their breakfast burritos were heaven. Omg THAT TORTILLA! Ask for their green salsa! It is less than 5 minutes off 70. Add this one to your list.

Amazing spot! Very easy grab and go breakfast options. Tons of snacks and drinks. fresh produce is a massive plus. The homemade tortillas are on point and they even warmed them up for me as I had a Togo order. This was an amazing Mexican restaurant and if I'm ever here again this is the only place I'll be eating at forsure!!

I was driving from Denver on an early morning and craved a bean taco. We pulled into this Mexican shop and I had the best breakfast burritos with beans, bacon, egg and potato toasted to a perfect crisp. I was excited to see a pan dulce case too. Order at the counter for fast, friendly service. They have grocery store too for all your tortilla, chips, Mexican candy needs.
