Rosario's Peruvian restaurant - Longmont Colorado.

May 15, 2019 

I have never had Peruvian food but a friend told me about this place so my parents and I decided to try it out. 

We got there about 4 PM and the place was empty but we had nice friendly service. It was in a strip mall but the inside was nice and had a simple decor and was painted red and white with pictures of Peru on the walls.

 I ordered Peruvian tour plate number six which included a Papa Rellena, Aji de Gallina and Tallarin Saltado. Mom and Dad both got Peruvian tour plate number five which included Lomo Saltado and Tallarin Saltado

The Papa Rellena was really good. It was basically a really good baked potato stuffed with a meat mixture that included a few peas, carrots and hardboiled egg pieces. Then was battered and fried making it a little crispy around the outside.   Aji de Gallina was a chicken dish with a creamy Aji yellow pepper sauce and topped with a hardboiled egg slice and an olive. I thought this was excellent and Tallarin Saltado a beef noodle dish which tasted kind of like lo mein. 

Tour plate number five had Lomo Saltado which was stir-fried beef with onions and french fries and it also had the same Tallarin Saltado I had.

Each plate was 16.99. 

The food at Rosario‘s was great! My whole meal was excellent and I can’t wait to return.

Rosie's Diner- Aurora Colorado

April 3, 2019 

 

I had a club sandwich with french fries. My sandwich was okay and was basically a typical club sandwich but it seemed like it was a little short on the meat. 

Dad had a cheese steak and he said it was not the best but it was okay and he thought the fries were good. 

Mom had the chile relleno plate and just thought it was alright. Our waiter was very friendly and after we left and forgot our to go box he ran it out to the parking lot to make sure we got it. We were here for a very late lunch but there were still a fair amount of people there that were mostly older folks. Rosies Diner was just okay and I might consider going back to try a milkshake but that would be about it.

Big Bills New York pizza -Denver Colorado

September 16, 2018 

We met the rest of the family for lunch on a Sunday. We were seated at table, but it was really too small for the seven of us. We ordered cheese sticks, a cheese pizza, a pepperoni pizza and a supreme pizza. 

The cheese one was a plain and basic and delicious pizza but it might’ve even been my favorite. 

the pepperoni was still a basic pizza but delicious 

 

and the supreme pizza was heavily topped and really really good. I really enjoyed Big Bills New York pizza and can’t wait to go back another time.

Chakas Mexican Restaurant - Denver Colorado

August 1, 2018

My parents and I stopped here for an early dinner. It was not too busy, but was filling up by the time we left. We were greeted and seated right away.  We had our drink orders taken and chips and salsa brought by the same guy. Then our waiter came and took our dinner orders. 

This salsa was okay it was a little spicy and was fairly good but it was in too big of a bowl for the amount of salsa. These were regular chips but some were red and green. 

I got the number 6 combo which had a beef burrito, cheese enchilada and a crispy chile relleno.  The beef burrito had a beef filling that was just ground beef mixed with some sort of sauce and I didn’t like it so much. The enchilada was good with a decent sauce and the cheese was not tough and chewy like you get in some places. The crispy chile relleno was all right but wasn’t so crispy with all the green chili on top. I really did enjoy the green chili, I had mine half-and-half so it was a bit spicy here and there and was very good. There was plenty of this chili smothering my burrito and chile relleno. My mom also had this combo but just got the mild green chili. 

Dad had a Chimichanga with shredded beef and with half-and-half green chili.  He thought the beef was really good. But the rice and beans not so much. 

If I was in the area again I might considering returning but won’t go a long way out of the way to eat at Chakas Mexican Restaurant.
