Monica's Taco Shop

Colorado has tons of casual Mexican eateries located in fast food restaurants often with drive thrus, but Monica's Taco Shop stands out with its quality eats. The breakfast burritos here are extremely popular, and for good reason--they're built on a fresh, chewy flour tortilla (not the generic supermarket kind) with a generous egg-based filling of choice. I had the Machaca, made of shredded beef cooked with egg, onions, and peppers in a sort of rolled omelette that held together and stayed hot in the tortilla. On the side came tangy and spicy green and red salsas, which added a nice chili flavor to the neatly wrapped burrito.

I'm pretty disappointed. For almost $11, the carne asada burrito was super skimpy. It came out fast, but man, the quality has gone down. It was worth mentioning that the men's bathroom was absolutely disgusting. The urinal was broken, the toilet was filthy, and so was the sink. Won't likely be back anytime soon. Sad.

Awesome breakfast burritos. Perfect combination of ingredients. Just the right size for a hearty breakfast.

I have heard great things about Monica's - specifically the breakfast burritos. This location was convenient to give them a try on a recent trip to COS, and I liked it so much that we actually went to another location again before leaving. The breakfast burritos definitely lived up to the hype here!The breakfast burrito has bacon, egg, cheese and potato for that classic flavor profile. You can also get red or green salsa, and the green was best, but the burrito shockingly did not need it - the potatoes were buttery, the eggs were plentiful, the bacon was crisp and the cheese was gooey. I only intended to eat half of this massive monster but ended up eating both parts after a brief break for my stomach to adjust. No shame, it was THAT good.Maybe stick to that order though. I added on a half pint of the chile verde since our time in CO was limited and was underwhelmed - it didn't have much flavor and the texture was oddly slimy? Not a fan. Thought it would be good for dunking the burrito, and that also was a no-go. So stick to the breakfast burrito and you'll have a good experience.

The food is delicious. We had carne asada and chicken tacos and a carne asada burrito. I used the drive thru and the service was fine.

I'm disappointed with the shredded beef burrito I just ate. This burrito was 80% peppers and onions or more. I barely came across any meat. I will not go back. I also don't recommend you waste your money there like I did. If I hadn't traveled to monument before I unwrapped it, I'd of returned it.

We usually go through the drive-through. All of their food are great! We usually order carne asada burrito. We got grilled chicken burrito and bacon, egg, & cheese (breakfast burrito). Their churros are affordable heavenly. My mom calls it strawberry heavenly. They have stuffed churros. We got strawberry churros.

Monica's is the best. Everyone who works there is always friendly and nice. I love the girl who works the drive through window! She's professional, kind, and speedy. The food is consistently good, I've had Monica's countless times and I've never had a bad meal nor a mess up. I also love their horchata, it's not too sweet nor thick. The drive through is never longer than 10 minutes. They are a staple in downtown Colorado Springs. In Monica's I trust.

Love this place. Staff so friendly and helpful. Food is wonderful. Will be my go to for tacos from now on.
