La Mariposa Margarita House - Boulder

I?ve been to La Mariposa at least 12 times since they opened last year and always been treated with amazing service, outstanding food, and one of the best Mexican Restaurant experiences I have ever experienced. Their margaritas keep me coming back for more, (not to mention the rewards program? free margarita on national margarita day? Well, the Birria tacos are my best friend. The owner was at the bar tonight and it was great to meet him and wish I had interviewed thisbusiness sooner, but I?m glad I waited because now I can really detail how much I appreciate this business. Please visit this place, it is hands down the best and most unique restaurant experience Boulder has to offer.

The good: really friendly staff, and the molcajete ranchero was really tasty (the steak was a little overdone) and fed two people (with an extra side order of Mexican rice). The less than great: we were seated in a booth that had salt all over one seat, the floor underneath was greasy, and the menus were sticky/had a tacky feeling to them, like they?d been wiped with a dirty rag. The four star rating is really related to the food, and we will be back to try the cocktails!

Nice restaurant but food was meh. Guacamole was good, but burrito, taco, fajita had no flavor or spice. Some stuff tasted canned. Very bland.

The food was not the best, drinks were ok. There are better places in Boulder

Our food was excellent and unique! We love Mexican quinine and eat it often so finding something new to try was exciting! Our waitress was super friendly and accommodating.
