on Citysearch Dec 08, 2008Having gone on a Saturday night, there was a 45 minute wait. Luckily, we found a place at the crowed bar and enjoyed one of the best margaritas in town. Got seated, and started filling up on chips and salsa. Though not the... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 19, 2008What an embarrassing evening! I took my most special, out of town guests, per my recommendation, to Hacienda Colorado. We began our feasting on the Margarita Swirls, on to stale guacamole, then the chile rellenos... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 15, 2008I'm not a big fan of mexican food in the Denver area. But this place isn't that bad. I would call it a slightly more up scale Don Pablos with better food. I had the Enchilada and Chili Relleno platter. The enchiladas... (more)

on Citysearch Oct 26, 2007This place has the best mexican food in town. Anyone that would choose the rio over this place must be drinking. Great drinks, not just margs. Home made chips and salsa rock. Great seafood and the best pork green chili... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 06, 2007My husband and I looooooove Hacienda!!! We go here at least every other weekend. Yes, there is always a wait, especially if you go on the weekend around 7-8 but that is ok with us. We just sit in the bar area and grab a... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 24, 2007Not a truly traditional Mexican restaurant but very good. Best spicy ribs Ive ever had. The problem, which others have noted is that it can get VERY busy. So if you go between 5-7pm expect to wait. I only sat in the dining... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 31, 2006I have eaten in this restaurant about 12 times - 10 of which were for lunch because it is convenient to my office. The food is excellent but the wait for seating - even when the restaurant is 25% - 50% full is maddening.... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 20, 2006As soon as you are seated, the hostess brings the chips and salsa (very good thin chips and spicy salsa) to your table and tells you who you will be taking care of you this evening. Very nice touch. Promptly, a server... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 20, 2006I'm with a lot of these other reviewers -- the food at Hacienda is lousy, as is the service, and the wait does not ever justify the experience. So why is everyone there? I'm more intrigued with how this place became "the"... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 04, 2006I can't think of one reason to not like this restaurant. Granted if you don't come at the right time there is a wait, well worth it I think. Make sure to use the call ahead seating if you are going to dinner there at a busy... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 28, 2006I am sick of the Tex Mex Mexican Food in Colorado. If you don't like red sauce smoothered everyting with cheese cheese and more cheese (so everything on your plate tastes the same) then this is your place. They actually... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 08, 2006Hi, I've been to Hacienda Colorado twice, only giving them a second chance after a disappointing first time. This is the blandest Mexican food I've ever tasted. I would recommend all the well known Fast Food... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 19, 2006My date and I gave the new restaurant on 104th and Hwy 36 a try yesterday and it was thoroughly bad. Salsa was bland and we should have cut our losses and left after a weak, expensive margarita. Headsets on the waitstaff... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 10, 2006The Hacienda is close to my place of business - near Echostar, Teletech and First Data. This is a wonderful place to take business partners and clients for lunch. Service is prompt and its priced lower than the decor... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 17, 2006This has to be the worst "mexican" restuarant I have ever been to. And I tried to give it another chance and also tried another location. I don't think I've ever received food there that is actually fully cooked. Every... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 13, 2005This is definately the worst mexican food I have every eaten! Before moving to Colorado I would drive down into Baja California and eat real mexican food. The food at this place is not mexican. I gave it two trys and both... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 09, 2005Recently moved to Denver from San Diego and was born and raised in Phx so I've had lots of Mexican food. We were there on a week day for lunch. The service was very slow. We didn't get our tortillas until we were done with... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 14, 2005They boast of over 100 tequillas and authentic mexican food, but the shots are $8 for upper mid grade,margarita's with top shelf are ridulously priced and are splashed with a tequilla of your choice. The house... (more)

on Citysearch May 08, 2005If you are looking for greasy down-and dirty mexican food, you won't find it here. Sometimes that's what I'm craving. Other times, when I want a nice "clean" mexican meal, I make the trek from the Cherry Creek area... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 06, 2003Three of us tried 2 different kinds of Marqueritas at Hacienda Co. None of us were able to drink them. They were bitter and weak. The food wasn't very good either and the service was terrible as far as getting our food was... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 18, 2003The first HC on Wadsworth originally didn't have much of a tequila selection - it does now and so does the Bierstadt location. Top to bottom one of the best around so forget the Marg mix - have an anejo on the rocks and... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 07, 2003you'll which this revamped version took to heart the lesson that a little more tequila balances out a bad menu. Mountain-mex as they coin it is nothing more than tex-mex without the ketsup. Its not all bad, the gringo... (more)
