Mission Deli — Restaurant in Rocky Ford

First impression of this place when you pull up the place looks pretty decent. I was surprised it was seat yourself when I went in. Table was dirty, asked to have it wiped off, no big deal. Waitress was polite but not very attentive. It was 40 minutes before close when we arrived. Ordered quickly soon after we arrived. Chips and salsa were good. Waited 35 minutes for the special of the day and a taco salad and nobody every checked on us in that time we waited. got our food Our food was not even warm. Chile relleno was soggy with oil, steak in fajitas was so tough and it was served on the hot plate that wasn't even hot.(every other mexican place I have been to that thing is sizzling when it comes out)my tortillas for the fajitas were hard and cold. One thing that was good was the rice. no one ever came back and asked about the food. We never got a ticket either so we went straight to the register. That's when the owner tried to give us every excuse for our poor food quality and service. We didn't ask for a free meal, we asked for a discount especially since I ate 1 fajitas and left the entire rest of the plate there because It was not good. My boyfriend only ate part of his taco salad shell and the chips that came on the side. We paid for our slightly discounted meal after we were told they were busy and that's why or food was cold.🙃 needless to say I will continue just not supporting this local business...

I went in on a friend's referral. It was super busy on a Friday afternoon, right about 12:30. I waited for about 10 minutes to be seated until a diner told me that you seat yourself. That would have been nice to know right away since obviously I was just standing there. I looked around and there were no clean tables so I sat on an unbused table like others that just walked in instead of waiting for them to bus it or else I would have been waiting a long time. Seemed like they only bused tables if someone had to sit on them, so they probably need someone to bus tables only. Waitresses were busy. I had the #2 combo with medium green chile. It was pretty good but not real hot, temperature wise. I also had them add on lettuce and tomato, which they upcharged for. It was all good because they definitely gave you your money's worth. The complimentary chips and salsa were really good, too! The menu was reasonably priced. It took me 45 minutes from arriving to get and finish my meal, which I rushed through because I was in a hurry. I would give this place one...

Salsa and chips at the beginner are great, right amount of kick and spice to it, salt is just right on the chips as well! Great combo. The selection is great, the bar is not well stocked so if you're looking for specialty mixed drinks, do t get your hopes up. The food is amazing. I had the steak Fajitas , 😋 and Mt friend had her normal chicken Fajitas. The portions are amazing, good rice, good refried beans. The vegetables with the fajitas were great, cooked well. The steak is was slightly overcooked, but not to the point it was too hard to eat. Tortillas come warmed with your fajitas, and there is plenty of stuff to add to all 4 of your tortillas for your fajitas. Prices are fair to average. Not overpriced, but you get your money's worth for the price of the meal. I would say the only reason I didn't give 5 stars is just due to the slow-ish service, it is a seat yourself place and I was there for about 10 mons before my waitress even came over. Once I was initially served and asked what drink I'd like, she was attentive and...
