Carreta Vieja

Good food, nice people, higher prices than we normally pay. We can get better value other places. No reason to go back.

The best Margarita in a hundred miles.

I have driven by this place thousands of times and I have never stopped in. I had heard good things, but just never went. Probably because I have to drive past 3 other Mexican restaurants to get there from my house. Everything (with one exception) was really good. Better food than the 3 I have to drive past. The only thing that didn't wow me was the house blended margarita. It was good, but not great. I didn't let that stop me from ordering a second one.

BEST MEXICAN FOOD IN CONIFER!!! I went here for Valentine's day so it was a little busy but nothing they couldn't handle. Food was quick to arrive and was absolutely delicious. Awesome prices and great atmosphere.

On your way back to denver from south park, skip 3 margaritas and drive a little further to stop here. Great service and real tamales!

My favorite place to eat. Same amazing chef and new owners who are pleasant.

Really great Mexican food with really great service. This is the closest restaurant to our house and we feel like we got really lucky. Try their super strong top shelf margaritas.

The food and service was AMAZING!!! Top shelf margarita was one of the best I’ve ever had!! I will definitely be returning!

Great food and service. By far my favorite Mexican restaurants in Conifer.

One of our favorite places to eat. Best margaritas!! I’m not sure what the one person who reviewed was talking about. This place under the new owner had the same chef. The food is FANTASTIC!! Who cares about the beans! Huge fan.

Great food and tasty drinks. This is definitely the go-to spot for Mexican food in area.

I was visiting Denver for work and we heard about Carreta Vieja so decided to give it a try. What a great restaurant! There were 6 of us in the group and we ordered 6 different meals to share. All of them were delicious.....as were the top shelf margaritas!! The owner and staff were so attentive and treated us like family. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Wonderful dining experience!

Super little gem that shared space with a gas station. Food is really good. Service is great.

Close to home, great staff. Love there Carreta vieja especial!!!!

Hidden gem! Very delicious, authentic Mexican food. One of the best Mexican restaurants I've ever been to. Atmosphere is perfect down to the last detail. Service was excellent!

If you want a trip for some great Mexican Food at the foothills of Colorado this is the place! Being from Texas we definitely know GREAT Mexican food; the best Margaritas in the state. Don't forget the sopapilas. Secret recipe ;). I'll be back for sure(Ian is one of the owners) be sure to tell him hello

Small tucked away Mexican restaurant connected to a discount petrol station. Very deceiving. Great tasting fish tacos, large portions, reasonably priced. Very clean and well kept. 👍👍

Amazing food, great staff and very inviting atmosphere. We will definitely come back here. They have the best margaritas!

I s I stumbled onto this place on a fluke. And was welcomed with open arms. Outstanding conversation with the owner Ian. Salsa was more than five stars that's all I could give hear. And I would definitely be back! It works

I love hiking nearby and we decided to give this place a shot. So glad that we did! Great enchiladas. Service was pretty slow, but it was busy and that happens sometimes. I've already told my friends about it. <3

Really good food and great service. Not giving a 5 star because the soap in the bathroom was diluted with water and a plate brought out was dirty.

This restaurant has the best food!! We ordered extra grilled chicken from the avocado salad just to take with us, and the service in phenomenal! Totally recommend!

Staff is friendly and fun. Margaritas are top shelf and the food is delicious.

Get in here! You don't know what you're missing if you haven't already done so. Great food, nice folks and super margarita s. Try it you won't be disappointed.

Very good food and friendly staff.

Horrible service, wrong orders, took 90 mins to get our food. Food was average . The ultimate margaritas are fantastic, I will go back just for those.

Amazing Mexican restaurant! Staff was so nice and friendly! Tacos are pretty good. For the most part clean. Free chips and salsa! Love this small restaurant! Definitely would recommend!

My sister who lives in Evergreen recommended this restaurant. Definitely had my doubts when she said it's part of a gas station. Growing up in San Diego I'm used to really good Mexican food. This restaurant is the best Mexican food I've had in the area, by far. Service is great too. Will definitely be back multiple times.

For me, the mexican dinners best part is the salsa. This place has the best, by far, salsa. Yum! Great salsa! We will just buy a big bag of chips and a large salsa to go. Huge portion and great price. The rest of the menu is great also.

Adorable little place sharing space with a gas station. Go in anyway. It's a traditional "Mexican restaurant in America" place. Cultural decor, very delicious food at reasonable prices, fantastic service. The salsa here is spicy, yum!

I have driven by this place so many times without ever giving it a chance. My brother was in town and wanted authentic Mexican. After looking at the reviews, I though it worth the chance. Boy am I glad I did. Service was outstanding. Our waitress was very attentive and food delivered promptly. I ordered the chimi combo plate. Very tasty and well prepared. My brother ordered a combo plate and was likewise pleased. Food tasted fresh and very well seasoned. Margarita was good and well mixed. The decor may not be restaurant chain worthy, but somehow that added to the ambiance. Everything including restrooms were very clean. In my option, this speaks of a family run business that cares about what they do. I would recommend you consider abandoning the Denver chains, and give this place a try. You might, like me, find a new favorite!

Hole in the wall, local favorite, great margaritas! Known locally as the Gas Station Mexican place, but once inside it's completely different. Nicely decorated and friendly staff, but the food is the draw. Do yourself a favor and find what the locals have known about for a while.

Love the food here and all the waitresses are awesome too.

What a great place. Greeted at the door like long lost friends, terrific salsa and the best real margarita I have ever had anywhere. Great and friendly service to boot. These folks are definitely something different than the run of the mill Mexican chow. We will be repeat customers for certain.

Always a great experience here! Great, friendly, fast service and delicious food. Also, best margaritas ever!Whenever you're craving Mexican in Conifer, go here!
