A Little Taste of Mexico in Pueblo


Colorado Springs Food Guy recently visited Garlic & Onions Mexican Grill located at 4333 Thatcher Ave, Pueblo, CO 81005. There are no words to describe the food and the atmosphere. I started the evening with a delightful Queso Bean Dip with chips and Beef Flautas. The Bean Dip was spicy and hearty and went well the warm chips. The Flautas were also very good. For dinner, I sampled the Garlic and Onions Burrito, the Chicken and Steak Fajitas, and the Cielo Mar & Tierra. The burrito and the Fajitas were filled with well-seasoned chicken and beef and a host of other fresh ingredients—even the guacamole was fresh.  The Garlic and Onions burrito was smothered with chili and served up in huge portions with Spanish rice and refried beans. The Cielo Mar & Tierra dish was exciting with steak, chicken and shrimp grilled and seared with jalapenos that gave it a spicy kick. The food at Garlic & Onions is truly authentic. Everything was so flavorful. However, it was the Chimichanga Cheesecake for dessert that stole the show. It was crispy on the outside and so creamy good on the inside. It definitely hit the spot. So if you are ever in Pueblo and want that authentic Mexican cuisine, come visit Garlic & Onions Mexican Grill and tell Jesse, the owner, that the Colorado Springs Food Guy sent you.
