Bellota - Boulder

We had the rehydrator alcohol free cocktail, it felt like a real treat that made us not even miss the alcohol. A bright cranberry flavor with lime and enough honey to balance the acidity. The salsas were fun and unusual with a tomatillo one that was actually creamy. The smokey deep red salsa was a favorite. Service is friendly yet professional. Overall feels like a chef run restaurant. The chili relleno was nice and crisp with a thick battered shell. Maybe they also roast the peppers because the stem was charred even though the shell was perfectly brown. Great texture with a nice dark brown sauce. There's a really cool mural inside made by a graffiti artist from the RINO area where the other Bellota is. Atmosphere is classy but comfortable. We'll be back.

This place was absolutely delicious. Plenty of parking, not packed like a lot of downtown Boulder, and the staff was really great. Their salsa trio was incredible - so rare to get a salsa trio and like all three of them. We also got chile rellenos, aquachiles, queso fundido, quesabirria, churros, and tacos. Everything we had was incredible! Definitely recommend checking this place out.

Our new fave Mexican restaurant in Boulder. Fresh, creative flavors. Everything is tasty- we’ve tried at least half the menu. We eat there almost weekly. Such a gem.

Thank you Bellotta for an amazing experience… proud to be the first customers of your new Boulder location. The service, drinks and food were all on point. Chef Manny is the man- we loved everything we had. Highly recommend the shrimp taco, margaritas and queso fundido. The sauce trio was also wonderful. We will be back and very happy to have you in the neighborhood. Welcome to Boulder! ❤

We had a lovely time at this neighborhood haunt! It’s definitely getting added to our list of go-to restaurants. The taco flight is delicious, and the chicken enchiladas are the best in town in my opinion.

I love the atmosphere and it’s nice to have free parking. Good food too!

We dined here tonight, and every single bite was delicious. Our server Allison was helpful and fast. What a gem! We ordered: chips and salsa (each of the three salsas were delicious), fried broccoli, carrots and jicama, wild fries, tacos, tostada, and the chile relleno. I'm a major relleno fan, and this was one of the best I've ever had. The textures and tastes were just delightful. I couldn't drum up a single complaint.

As others have noted, the flour tortillas were fantastic.

Ribeye tacos were amazing. Chips and guac were next level. Frozen margarita balanced lime and booze perfectly. Churros were a must. Highly recommend.

We had a little celebratory dinner for four and this was just right. Everyone had plenty to eat, and we had some leftovers. The drinks were very tasty. I like the mole sauce in particular. The staff were very helpful without being overbearing. I think we spent a bit more than we technically had to because we got a lot of fancy drinks that are expensive compared to the food. We had some in our party who are omnivores and some are pescatarians and everyone was able to pick out what they wanted and no one felt like it was an uncomfortable compromise. Great menu. Street parking was easy to get when we were there on a Sunday afternoon. Oh, they had a Happy Hour and we got a lot of stuff on the happy hour menu.

Bellota is a delightful restaurant. The happy hour offering is fantastic with great food and drink specials.

One of the better happy hours in Boulder. Food and drinks are both outstanding. Hard to go wrong!

We held a private event for 30 people and the staff were amazing, the food was exceptional and the ambiance was great. Highly recommended

Really excellent food and cocktails, and very reasonable prices! We really enjoyed our meals. Wish there were more vegan options.

Delicious food, fun vibe, great addition to North Boulder! Happy hour every day as well 👏🏼

Host was unfriendly and on his own time (could’ve just been having a bad day), but our waiter was great and the food delicious! We loved the mole verde enchiladas. Plenty of vegetarian options.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Boulder. I love the tacos - they remind me of the griddled style that Comida makes - now only available at Stanley Marketplace, so I’m thrilled to be able to have such delicious options so close with the opening of Bellota. My faves are the shrimp and rib-eye taco but I has the panela recently and I loved it! The salsa with nuts was such a good match with the salty cheese!

Every cocktail I have had at Bellota has been phénoménal. I had the Zona Rossa recently and it was sooo good! Their margaritas are tart and refreshing - perfectly balanced!

The service is always friendly and helpful. Truly one of my go-to places. The dining room is the perfect size for a group, too, and I love the outdoor terrace area. Highly recommended!

Delicious dinner last night. Yes, the broccoli is the bomb! Out of the 3 tacos we tried, we both thought that the rib eye was the best. Superior service and relatively quiet at 6:45 on a Tuesday night. Will definitely return!

Very unique but tasty Mexican food

We had been meaning to come try out Bellota for awhile, since we live in the North Boulder area and drive past it practically every day. Overall, it was pretty good, elevated mexican food. The atmosphere was bustling and energetic, the food had depth of flavor, and the drinks were enjoyable. Be sure to try a few starters, particularly the salsa trio, queso fundido, and guacamole. 1-2 more dessert choices (especially GF choices) would be a great addition to the menu.

What a nice find. Their signage is disorder so we didn't even know they had opened for business. We happened to stumble upon it from a Google search. The food was amazing. The chips are some of the best I've had in the tacos were also very good. The only downside is that the tables are so small it's hard to fit everything when you have four people sitting together.
