Jarrito Loco is a Mexican restaurant in Monument, Colorado, that specializes in authentic Mexican City cuisine. They offer a wide variety of dishes, including fajitas, margaritas, mole, tacos, chiles rellenos, salsa, and breakfast burritos. They also have many gluten-free options. Because we represent south of the border cuisine, you won’t find green chili, chimichangas, and queso dip. We hope Colorado Springs will enjoy the good authentic Mexican food its been lacking for so long.

Decor was a little dated, but that did not take away from the quality of the food. Staff was super friendly and attentive. Will return again on my next trip through Monument.
This establishment merits special recognition. As a diner who often reserves five-star ratings for truly exceptional experiences, I must place this restaurant in a category of its own. It is, by a measurable margin, the most impressive local dining and catering operation I have encountered.
The appeal is dual: a delightful dine-in experience paired with an equally capable, high-end catering service. The ambiance is warm and considered, complemented by a service staff led by owner, Angel, the most friendly, informative, helpful, people-loving, humble, confident, pleasant owner that I have ever met, and simply a wonderful human being. His detailed knowledge of ingredients, culinary history, and flavor profiles elevates the service from merely attentive to genuinely informative.
My recent visit, a wedding catering tasting with my fiancée and future mother-in-law, confirmed the reputation that preceded them.
The kitchen’s profound commitment to quality is evident from the first offering: house-made tortilla chips, fried exclusively in beef tallow—a dedicated approach to traditional flavor and the avoidance of seed oils.
Sampling the various sauces was the core of the visit. While the mole was well-executed, three of the sauces were masterful. The entomatada sauce, sampled initially with the chips and later on a classic chile relleno, possessed a delightful, unexpected complexity. The subtle cinnamon note in its profile offered a savory counterpoint to the bright tomato base, resulting in one of the most memorable flavor experiences of the evening. The pork chile pasilla provided a depth of earthiness and richness. Ultimately, the popular Poblano Pepper sauce stood out as the crown jewel, demonstrating exceptional balance, and both the pasilla and poblano sauces were selected for our upcoming catered event.
A noteworthy dish was the white vegetarian chile relleno. Its composition was surprisingly superior to its traditional, non-vegetarian counterpart (which was already amazing!) showcasing the kitchen’s ability to execute refined, meatless options. The meal concluded with an impossible flan that was texturally perfect and beautifully plated.
This is a venue that demands to be part of any serious local diner’s rotation. If you are needing catered food, the synergy of outstanding culinary execution, Angel’s attention to detail, and comprehensive client care positions this operation as unrivaled within the Colorado Springs metropolitan area.
