Chimayo Grill

The attention is fast and the dishes are rich. I recommend the vegetarian burrito and the quesadilla. You can add the toppings you want and assemble as you want. The prices are according to the quantity of the dishes. It is well located and easy to access. Hau chairs and tables available inside and outside the restaurant

Hands down this place has the best grilled fish tacos I've ever tasted. A few years back, my foodie companion and I stopped by this place on a whim and now anytime we're nearby, we make a point to come here. The fish is lightly sauteed with either Cajun or butter garlic seasoning then finished on the grill to add some smokey flavor. It is then placed on fresh ingredients and topped with a white sauce.

Amazing food and great service! Vegan/vegetarian friendly.

My wife and I hit this place up every chance we get. We tell everyone we know about it who visits this area.
Had lunch there 3 days out of 4 on this trip.

Great staff. Great fish tacos. Priced as expected in Summit County. Love this place.

Food is great but the through put of customers is horrible

I had an Awesome late lunch here today, about 2:30pm. I can recommend the grilled fish (Cajun style) corn tacos. The fish was cooked to perfection. They re generous portions and I got 3 huge tacos for $9.75 I added an order of chips and salsa, pico de gallo. Their hot salsa is flavorful with a hot kick that ll heat you up! I d need to eat here a few more times and sample more menu items to decide if they re really a true 5. This place has real good food and not a fast food Mexican place like Taco Bell or Del Taco. I m including a pic of my Taco, just understand there were 3 of them for only $9.75
Everything is FRESH!!!
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Really great food!! Very cool place, great fast service alot of healthy options! I recommend checking it out!

Had the Baja shrimp tacos and almost made me puke later day - probably a mild case of food poisoning. Dirty kitchen (and tables) and whoever the brunette working the front counter was shouldn t have a job interacting with humans. She s not at all suitable for that task. Frozen margaritas are way too sweet. Kids quesadilla tasted bad as well. Not managed very well unfortunately. Was hoping it would be better as reviews have been favorable.

Delicious Baja fish tacos! Friendly and fast service!

Food was really bland. Most of the flavor came from the tortilla and the caramelized onions, which they only added a small amount to the burrito. The bathrooms were also very dirty. It wasn't expensive, but the portions were small and bland. Overall experience wasn't worth it.

EDIT: Review was changed due to the rude response from the restaurant. This is really disappointing because the staff were very nice when we were there and the food was bland even though we ordered different things.

Best place to eat around town. Fish burritos are the best and are deep fried fresh here.

I have to say that the evening my husband and I came in we would have left if not for the young lady at the register. Our burritos were made incorrect and the guys on the line were bickering amoungst each other of who was at fault. I believe she said her name was Jennifer, she stepped in with a smile and said no worries we. Will get you taken care of apologies for the mix up and went right to work on getting it done. She offered us chips and salsa while we waited and that our order would be up as Soon a sit was ready. She offered to bring it out to us as well. She never once lost her smile and the line was out the door. I sat and watched as she went to the next customer and so on and she was the true definition of customer service at its best our food was ready and she did as she said and brought it right to us again offered apologies and that we were welcome to please come back, not to allow the issue at hand to keep us from clerking to eat where we actually love to come. We had stopped coming due to a similar situation not to long ago. This lady was new and is an exceptional addition to your business. Keep her as long as you can and customers will be smiling w satisfaction A special thank you to her for ensuring that our visit was not ruined by a careless mistake
Thank you Jennifer we will be back to see you again !

This place blows my mind. You can't go wrong here, but their Baja Fish Tacos are definitely the best I've had ever!!! Working next to this place is definitely going to be dangerous for me!

We can't get enough! It took me a few years to try this place out and I will never go back to those 'other taco places' again! Locally owned and absolutely delicious!!!!!!

Chili Reno burrito was AMAZING. Perfect. But the people were soooooo grumpy!

Great burritos. I call these guys Chipotle 2.0. Baja Fish combined with Cajun Shrimp on a Southwest Tortilla and it's heaven on your palette. Definitely a good place to grab a bite and relax.

Hands down the best Mexican food in Summit county Colorado

The food was beyond amazing prices are a little high but so is everything in this area, so in reality the prices are pretty normal for this area. But the food, taste, and service was totally worth it!!!.

Some of the best tacos in CO! Really great spot post-skiing.

I typically don't order fish because, well it tastes fishy. I took a chance here based on the reviews and the baha fish taco was amazing! Everything tasted great. To top it off, this place has the first "compostable" straws that function as well as plastic. Finally my prayers are answered!

Fresh and tasty! Reasonably priced. Friendly service. Recommend the garlic shrimp tacos.

Amazing fish tacos. You can't go wrong if you order them. I have always had the Baja style shrimp and fish. Great sauces for the fish and shrimp. I rated this place 4 stars because sometimes the staff can be a little off putting.

Phenomenal food. I got a taco bowl and they deep fried the shell to order - definitely made a difference!

Good food when the employee listens to you and gets your food right. I ask for grilled shrimp tacos they give me fried then instead of asking what I want on it they just go down the line and start putting whatever on it then at the end they say anything else? Well I didn't have a choice in what's on it so clearly I don't have a say.

Same thing happened to my husbands food. He got a burrito he put the correct meat on but then again the employee went down the line and put whatever HE wanted on it.

The employee that did this was a shorter rounder Mexican guy who had a bad attitude and didn't listen to anything we said. We were pretty much just talking to ourselves cuz he did whatever he wanted. I really enjoy the food but honestly don't know if I'll go back cuz of the service.

If you get this guy ask for someone else.....

Made my wife sick on our way to Vail. Garbage, don't go here

Very expensive, plus they charge you more for every single topping in your burrito. Served cold and staff was not friendly. Environment was crowded and noisy. Good enough for a $6-7 burrito but cost $12-14. Would not recommend.
Edit: I said crowded, not busy. There were not many people there making it noisy, just too many seats and too loud music.

Great fast casual Baja inspired Mexican establishment. Got their Baja fish tacos which their known for. Alaskan pollock was hand battered and dipped right in front of you. Came out with an immense crisp. Delicious. The quesadilla at the table across from me had beautiful grill marks on it. You can tell these guys really put a lot care and consideration into the food they prepare. Only downside was the pico de gallo was very watery which led to a soggy corn tortilla and the trash holes were a little small so you really had to work to shove it in there. Plenty of parking and single bathrooms.

Easy, cheap, fast and tasty with a kids menu. Loved it.

Delicious food. Doesn't matter what you get, it's going to be good. Occasionally I'll notice the workers seem a little off, but they DO have to deal with the tourists.

Best Baja shrimp tacos I've ever had! Went in when they were slow and when they were slammed and the taste was still consistent. Cannot get enough. Easily a favorite spot when I come up the mountain!

The best cajun shrimp tacos this side of the Continental divide!

Good food at halfway reasonable price. The entire staff looks stoned every time we visit. Wish they would hire people that don't look like they should be working in a dispensary. I'm serious they are all stone heads and need to bathe more than once a week.

I always get the Baja fish tacos. They're my favorite!

Such a gem and the secret seems to have been getting out over the years. Crushes chipotle, more of an Illegal Pete s vibe, but maybe better. If you re in Keystone or Breckinridge area it s a great place to stop and enjoy a burrito and their fish tacos are great!

Hands down some of the best fish tacos in Colorado. Everything is made fresh to order, and I ve never had a bad experience in my three years coming here. The employees are always super friendly, and the owner is awesome. Definitely a summit county favorite.

Foods great but they charge full side prices to add 1/8 size portions if rice and beans to a quesadilla. Independently. So it gets expensive, If the food wasn't good I wouldnt give it 5 stars though.. just out of price point for a weekly stop

The best fish and shrimp tacos anywhere! Plus great burritos and fajitas. Forget Chipotle and Qdoba, Chimayo is where it's at!

Awesome spot for a quick bite. Great food. Great service. What else can you ask for?

Very good. Will come back. Guys are extremely hard working.

Absolute gem! If you're considering Chipotle, go local instead. More options like fish and shrimp for tacos or burritos. Even their chips are delish. Service was friendly.

Good food, large portion, plenty vegetarian options

Cozy. Relatively affordable prices. Some dang good steak tacos. The crispy rellano was tasty too.
For comparison's sake, t's fast casual tacos and burritos Like a QDoba or Chipotle...but better.

Good portions friendly staff and decent prices for ski town

Really good fish burritos, worth trying out if you are around!

Terrible staff, they seem to be irritated that they are employed and have customers to serve. The food isn't good enough to make me come back.

Yummy food. The fish tacos are awesome. Everything else is great, too.

Fantastic place. The guys there are super nice and they all know how to wrap a burrito. The shrimp and fish were freshly cooked to order and they were delicious. All the sauces were really good and our server suggested sauces that would go well with our meals which was cool. The sauces at the tables are also really awesome, worth a try.

My favorite lunch spot! Their fish burrito hits the spot with the flavor and crunch from the fried fish. So good!

Got massive order for co workers and they handled it with ease. They don t take phone orders for large orders, so the people behind us were not amused. I had grilled shrimp tacos with no cheese. Nicely done. Everyone else had fish tacos and More

Good food. Love that they include fish and shrimp as a meat option and they serve beer too!

The Caucasian man who takes the orders was EXTREMELY RUDE!

Small taco place with a big bite. We spent some time waiting in line at this place but for good reason. It s a similar type setup to a chipotle but with a more mom&pop type feel too it. The food was excellent and the staff worked their butts off to keep the line moving. Pricing was pretty decent. Seating was limited but we were able to find some anyways. Nice place.

Fish tacos were out of this world, staff asks a lot of questions while creating your lunch so be prepared to answer.

Slowest place of this type I have been to. Food bland.

Everything was great. Food was great. The manager, short Hispanic woman, very mean, very rude. She was very rude to the African American worker, yelling all the time, very unprofessional. Won t be coming back.

Great tacos and burritos. A solid go-to for fast causal Tex-Mex

Probably not the best place to be at the rush time, unless you don t mind 30 mins waiting in line. but everything is so absolutely delicious!!!

Unfortunately the food quality seems to have taken a hit. Which is a bummer for us! We visit the area twice a year for all of vacations and Chimayo was our go to place to eat good food. We used to recommend it to everyone we met. This time however, the food was tasteless and completely bland ( seemed like even salt was not added). The employees were overwhelmed with the rush and the service was also rushed, as a result. We are really hoping that all of it was due to holiday crowds (we were there during new year week. Although that's when we have been in the past too) . Will give it a try again during our spring break visit.

Great fish burrito. The restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly

Wish we had a place like this closer to home. SO GOOD!

I would call this a higher quality version of Chipotle and QDoba. The burritos were filling and delicious. If I'm ever in the Denver area again I would definitely stop by.

I loved the burrito I ordered if your around the area I recommend you go for lunch

Love chimayo! So much better than qdoba or chipotle! Best fish tacos hands down

Great food. Workers appeared to be so stoned they couldn't remember an order for longer than 10 seconds

Really good breakfast burritos! Very reasonably priced for a ski town, too.

Had the steak tacos and it was pretty good. Reminded me of a better version of Chipotle. Their hottest sauce definitely has great flavor and a nice kick to it. Thanks!

Very famous tasting fish tacos. A must after a day of skiing.

Service here is a joke. First dude greated me with a cold what ll you have? with a slight annoyance to his question. I get it, you just had a good 5 minute conversation(while I patiently waited to order) with your buddy ahead of me about how you haven t gotten to snowboard much because you work all the time. No big deal, some people just have bad days. Not sure if dude number one was stoned or what because he asked me three times for here or to go? , each time getting a little more annoyed. So then it s on to dude number two who has the (apparently super hard) job of assembling my taco. They must train their employees not to be friendly with anyone, because the first thing out of this jabroni s mouth was a condescending what do you want on it?! . I then explained to him I m not sure what are my options? Dude number two just points down at the messy tubs of unlabeled toppings with an irritated look on his face. At this point, I probably should have just told them forget it and walked out. To make things even better, they had forgotten what fish I ordered on my tacos and proceeded to switch between GRILLED FISH AND BAJA FISH FOUR TIMES without bothering to ask me what I ordered. I had ordered the Baja Tacos, and they came so saturated with sauce that they were barely edible. The tortilla had a weird stale taste to it, but perhaps it was the lack of personality and good service behind the counter that left a stale taste in my mouth. I used to like this spot, but unfortunately due to rude service and soggy tacos the past few visits, this will be my last.

Fantastic food and great service. Really enjoyed their variety of salsas and sauces. We will be back after future mountain excursions!

I've been going here for years! Definitely one of my top 3 places to eat on this side of the county. People describe it to those who have never been there as "similar to Chipolte/Q'doba". I guess the process is similar but that is all. Most things are made to order(shrimp & Fish) and whatever isn't is kept more fresh in my opinion than one of those chains. Once you have one of their signature items (shrimp/fish, grilled/fried, burrito/tacos) you will be hooked.
