CASA BONITA REVIEWS

It was the complete experience, live entertainment in multiple different aspects. You dont just go to eat, the food was amazing tho. I ordered the nachos with the Carnitas and it had plenty of toppings on the chips with a lot of flavors. I did put the salsa all over the nachos because I enjoy a good salsa to chip ratio. The food is an hour window of time. After you eat you have time to go over all of the locations on the map. Multiple drink stations around the restaurant to enjoy the experience. Live Mariachi band, cliff diving, puppet show, magic show, arcade, wishing well, scavenger hunt for the different actor and actresses, and a lot of small touches through the different zones to experience. Definitely, keep the map to follow along your hunt to all the side quest entertainment. The shows have specific start times, so time it out when you travel around vs watching one of the events. I will most definitely take another trip to Denver just for Casa Bonita.

We ate at Casa Bonita while visiting from Nashville. It truly lives up to the hype. It was a delightful experience, with a wide range of entertainment, including cliff divers, a waterfall, arcade, and live entertainment like a humorous magic show, mariachi bands, live classical guitar music, kitschy cowboys, flame jugglers, and a maze of colorful themed rooms. The great thing was, it wasn’t just about the experience — the food was outstanding too! I have to mention, they have the best tasting tortilla chips I’ve ever eaten.

Straight up, like from when I was a kid, except with better food!! first time coming here in over 15 years. They’ve wonderfully restored it. The food was fantastic though $40 does seem a little bit steep. You’re also paying for the environment, which was outstanding. Employees had great customer service. I look forward to coming back here.

JOSE O'SHEA'S REVIEWS

Best good ever. Amount of food amazing for the price. Love the deep fried Ice cream!!!!!.

Seriously the best Mexican food I’ve ever had and the place itself is so cute.

Food was excellent and for three people the total bill was $55!!! Amazing!!!.

MOOSE HILL CANTINA REVIEWS

Great local Colorado Mexican food. I always get the C-9 combo - a burrito and chile relleno. I really like the family friendly atmosphere and the fact that all the employees have been there forever. Or at least, since I moved to the area nearly 20 years ago...

Excellent food and service! The moose milk sample at the end was sooo tasty! Loved the street tacos and fresh salsa!.

Great food. Family owned great service. Can accommodate large groups.
