Gardunos Mexican Food - Eagle, Colorado

Ricardo Bran

We came on a Monday night and luckily for us, the place was quiet. I say luckily cause it gave us a chance to speak with our waitress who seems to be one of the owners. The other owner is her husband, aka the chef!
A small unassuming place that appears to have been a home at some point, Garduno’s has a rather big menu. You can find anything from tacos to enchiladas, burritos, tortas, huarachas, and more.
We had the chipotle enchiladas, I ordered two chicken and 1 cheese. Get ready: not only delicious but spicy! You may want to eat them with the red rice that the dish comes with. The enchiladas were topped with I want to say was crema. It wasn’t sour cream but it had a slight bitter taste to it, just like fresh crema.
We also had the quesadilla Birria which came with a chile de árbol salsa that was also spicy. My hubby says that they were delicious and that the only thing that would’ve made them better was if the dish had also included the consome that comes when you make birria.
For drinks we had a margarita that had a spicy kick and had tajin. A what? Tajin is a tangy Mexican seasoning that has a citrus flavor to it and can be spicy.
We also had horchata which was made in the premises by them. They actually soaked the white rice in water and flavored it with cinnamon and blended everything in house. The horchata was refreshing and it came in an XL sized cup!
We will definitely be back next time we are in town!!

The food was excellent! The staff was great and the prices reasonable.

The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. The queso sauce on the burritos was smooth and creamy. Pico de gallo and guacamole were both tasty additions to the burritos which were Asada. The appetizer was queso fundido, brought out in a sizzling cast-iron skillet with chips. We will get the tortillas next time though both work fine with the fish.

This is a new go-to place for us and if you're in Eagle Colorado stop by. You will not be disappointed.

Great weekly specials and a terrific taco Tuesday deal. Cool murals near bathroom. Wood burning fire place. Great patio in the warmer months. Giant window view into kitchen. Cool folks who are friendly and treat you like family. Great salsa bar with yummy sauces, freshly chopped onions and cilantro. Decent little bar with strong drinks at reasonable prices.

Food was cold and had no taste at all...I had cheese Enchiladas, she had a deep fried fish, which was actually semi good.

I was very disappointed, some of the worst Mexican food I've ever eaten.

Hard to mess up cheese Enchiladas....

Super sweet Mom n Pop Mexican joint around the corner from Broadway. Torta Cubano was off the hook! They have Huaraches, and Pupusas! Cool murals on the walls too +1

This place was interesting to put it kindly. It started with a self-service seat your self and get your own water. We were not told the chips and salsa were $4 and given one basket with a small salad for 5 people. The food had good flavor but the service was very slow and rude, many members of our group had stomach issues following our meal. We were not told our bill could not be split until the very end. It was nice to eat outside but other than that I would not recommend this as an option.

Food was subpar at best. Went there for lunch and it was probably some of the worse Mexican food I ever had.
The rice in the burrito was wet mush and the steak was tough.

Have had more bad experiences than I have had good experiences here. Ordered over the phone and my order wasn’t placed because I have an area code from out of town and they thought I would flake on the order. So when I arrived to pick it up they didn’t have my order ready and had to wait another 20 minutes or so for my food. And many times I have come and there are so many signs that are confusing as to whether or not they are open. Their hours don’t match the hours on google maps!!! (Zoom in on picture and tell me whether you think it’s closed or open, FYI it was closed)
