Los Amigos Restaurant — Restaurant in Colfax

Cash only with an atm inside was a surprise, but understandable. They are an authentic Mexican food restaurant and most of our food tasted delicious. My husband kept asking me if I thought they would use ketchup to season their fajita's which made me suspicious of how he felt about his food. It does state all over the menu that if you take a bite off of someone else's plate, they'll charge you $2. Which made us feel awkward as a family because we love to try each other's food at new restaurants we are testing for the first time, as in this case. Our service was very non chalant which I feel obligated to point out. They walked by a few times before talking or acknowledging us after they seated us and took a while to bring chips and salsa. It only had 1 other table occupied as we arrived.. Not a bad experience, but improving their customer promptness would improve satisfaction which would be a recommendation. As always with a Mexican restaurant, I recommend serving beans with your salsa. It helps the kids mild down the spicy salsa and it's wildly encouraged from an avid traveler and eat out guru. I am a self proclaimed chef and homemade food that tastes amazing is my niche, so I'm a tough critic on food that I know how to make. Don't get me wrong, the food is tasty here as I enjoyed my #3 with 2 cheese enchiladas with a chicken taco, that is how they earned those 3 stars. They lost the 4th and 5th star for price gauging, my husband's responses, and poor communication. They also gave me the wrong drink, but I understand how it was messed up. I felt everything was as expensive as an organic restaurant in a big city. No joke. Sweet people though. Choices are minimal in Colfax, so they've got the market cornered. I wish their business well. I also hope they find local options as a way to reduce prices for themselves which would be greatly appreciated by their customers. Hence increasing customer loyalty and potentially increasing frequency of visits based off of feeling like it's...

Here’s a place that you could easily miss by just driving right by - but don’t. Unassuming from the street, but step inside and you’ll find a very nice, comfortable, very clean and well maintained establishment. Booths are comfortable with plenty of room. The menu is organized and easy to read with a wide selection of standard Mexican dishes, but includes a few things for los gringos, as well. Portions are fair and prices very reasonable with a three-item combo of one tamale, one enchilada and one taco with rice and beans priced at $14.50. That’s a bargain these days. Food is seasoned to accommodate the more bland INW palate, but still satisfactory. Chips and homemade salsa are complimentary. Wait staff was friendly and responsive. All in all, a pretty...

Had no idea this place was here. I pass thru here pretty often visiting family, I ate here with my parents. This might become a regular lunch spot for us in transit. The carne asada burrito is pretty good if a bit heavy on refried beans. My mom and I both ordered one and wished we had split one instead, it's huge. The salsa is... unusual, has a flavor to it that I can't quite place, but quite good. Chips were good too. The chips and salsa were long gone before the meal arrived. Overall on par with any good Mexican restaurant I would eat at more than once. Nice little place for Colfax,...
