El Taco Y La Arepa - Colorado Springs

We ate here a few weeks ago and had a pretty good experience.The parking is shared with some other businesses, but seems to be adequate and the restaurant, itself, is quite small, but clean and pretty well kept. In our case, the service was quite poor one lady was doing everything, so it's possible that this was an isolated incident and they were short on people... but we did have to ask for drinks and other things multiple times. It also took a very long time to get food ordered and to receive it. The biggest issue, though, was that my wife is 8 months pregnant, so the bathroom is particularly important to her and the women's bathroom got unintentionally locked right before she entered and stayed locked the whole time we were there (after my wife mentioned it to the staff early on, nothing changed she ended up using the men's bathroom twice).The food, on the other hand, was quite good and we definitely enjoyed it...and that's the most important thing. I feel that the prices are pretty on point to where they should be: not super cheap, but reasonable. I would say that we will surely be visiting again and trying out more of their menu!

Really enjoyed my tacos. The mango drink was amazong. Great service, kind people. Glad I stopped by!

Some of the best latino food in the city, mostly Venezuelan and Mexican food.Good arepas (yeah probably the pre-made stuff but still prepared very well), good tacos, good breakfast. Everything is fresh, and most things seem to be made from scratch.I really recommend you order one of the daily drinks, whatever they may be.The ambiance is just a basic cafeteria with music playing; there is no hiding the food behind a painted veil. And the food speaks for itself very well.Vegetarian options: There are a number of vegetarian options, and one could even eat vegan here and enjoy himself.

I love this place! Highly recommend the fish and pork tacos. They come with some amazing sauces as well!

Oh my! Great place, great people, fair prices. The food was delicious, the portions were just enough, and the service was top notch! Definitely coming back and totally recommended!
