Efrains Mexican Restaurant

I'm had decided to give them another chance. My last experience wasn't great! This time the service was so much better. I really like the Huevos Rancheros! Green Chile did not disappoint.

We heard good things about this place, and were a bit underwhelmed. The staff was friendly but service was rather slow. The food was decent. I liked the chips and salsa they serve complimentary. I ordered an enchilada and taco. The beef was really good, definitely recommend that meat option in your meals. It's shredded beef (instead of ground). However, the tacos came out pretty soggy and we had to eat them with a fork instead because they just fell apart.

I had not been to Efrain's in Lafayette for an extended period and sought it out before attending a Louisville Street Faire rainy night. Lafayette has a fun downtown area, plenty of options, parking, and safe surroundings.Luckily, they did not have a wait on a Friday night, snaring the lone available table after quickly getting a parking spot in their private lot. Efrain's always had a good neighborhood vibe, and this was no exception--average noise level. Excellent service from the onset, chips and their terrific red salsa on our table within minutes, and then a guacamole order to add to the appetizer! Our server was so pleasant and helpful and was kind throughout the visit.I ordered the Steak San Lorenzo, veering from my usual Mexican food choices, and I am glad I did. It was as delicious as I had hoped, craving a spicy dish with solid tastes. Perfectly cooked; I loved the veggies, and everything was yummy.

A Lafayette must stop .. we popped in tonight for a quick bite to eat ... the hubby had chile verde burrito and he just loved it .... Our server was super quick, very attentive and could Vincent hubby that the house marg would be better than the frozen one .. he really liked it a lot ...The place really hadn't changed in the many years it's been b around, but it's clean and has really good "vibes"

I hadn't been here for several years, but it was pretty much what I remembered. The food isn't anything fancy or creative; it's filling decent Mexican-American classics. We shared the chili verde and rellenos, both were flavorful and well made, I'd happily recommend both. The service was friendly and attentive at the end of a busy Friday night.The house margarita was tasty and an outstanding value. The whole meal was a good value: I can't remember the last time I got the check anywhere and thought, "That's cheap, did they forget to charge me for something?" But no, it really is cheaper than typical fast casual chains.

I love the Efrain burrito smothered in chili Verde. It is my favorite Mexican dish I have ever had. I live in California and every year I visit Colorado I stop by this location and get an Efrain. It is a glorious mix of multiple meats, rice beans and cheese, smothered in the best Chili Verde in Colorado.It is on the spicy side but if you like spicy food it has the perfect amount of heat. Do yourself a favor and get an Efrain, and make sure you get the Chile Verde version.

*Yummy food, slower service*Line out the door.Ordered:Queso dipPartner had something porky that does not exist in my reality.Cutesy adobe like atmosphere.Clean amenities.Local fave.Large portions.

Came by for lunch. Efrains has a patio outdoors that was pretty full. The bar area has some large TVs with a crowd watching the game. Interior was large but most of the restaurant was sitting outside. The menu is large with the usual fare. They have some creative options like the Efrains burrito which seems like a wet burrito with the chef's choice of everything. Food was solid but pretty typical fare. Prices were pretty reasonable for the portion sizes. Queso came in a huge portion but was a little grainy. Service was very very friendly but a bit forgetful. We had a very nice waiter but things moved a little slow. Ample parking.

Nowhere near as good as Efrain's of Boulder. Service was slow. Salsa sucked. Portion size much smaller than Efrain's of Boulder. Just go to the Boulder location as it's a totally different and much better.

This is the only place I will go to for Mexican food. Recently went to the Boulder location and it was equally amazing!
