La Fuente

Whoo boy!
I am still a Santiago’s addict. It’s hard to beat breakfast burritos at $ 2 that are so good I’d pay $ 4 for, plus, on Federal and 25^th, I can go thru the drive-​thru.
But, if I’m in the mood to sit down and munch on a breakfast burrito, I’m going back to La Fuente. This burrito was awesome. I had the steak. So good. I really don’t know what to atribute it to. Nothing seemed special but it all just tasted slightly better than it should have been for $ 7.
The décor is nothing, but I like that you can buy cigs, bananas and CDs while paying your bill.
Also, the service was great and the wait was almost nil. Although, this might be b/​c we were the only two people in here on a Monday morning.

This review is regarding breakfast burritos and breakfast burritos only…
You have heard of greasy spoons, and dive dive bars, well, this is the Mexican food equivalent. Posters for visiting Mexican bands on the walls, old school booths that you can barely fit in, looks unkempt and dirty and, yes, actual bullet holes through the exterior walls (hey, it was in the heart of Commerce City when it was still «Combat City.»
Now, you may be saying to yourself, «This Eddie guy is insane… He must have lost his marbles…» Well, dear reader, you may be correct… However, it does not make what I am about to say any less true. I will put a La Fuente breakfast burrito up against any burrito in the city any day of the week. There. I said it. The gauntlet has been thrown.
Big chunks of ham, crispy fried potatoes, and they don’t even know how to spell «mild» evidently, because what they think is mild and what I think is mild are two different things entirely. In a good way, of course…
So, in summary, if you somehow find yourself lost and alone in Commerce City, perhaps after being kidnapped or something, look for the bullet holes and console yourself with some breakfast burritoy goodness at La Fuente… Se habla espanol…
