    We drove from Denver to Fort Collins just to have dinner at Madre Cocina. We had heard that it’s a rare find in Colorado’s dining scene so we had to find out for ourselves. Wow, did it exceed our high expectations!! The cocktails, appetizers, entrees, and the dessert were all outstanding. The service was absolutely wonderful - Danny, Caesar, and Annabelle made us feel so welcome and it was obvious they are dedicated to making each customer feel special. It’s so unusual to experience such an amazing dining experience but Madre Cocina is a unique restaurant. We can’t wait to go back!!

    Amazing drinks and creative food options! It was very loud and the service was mediocre. We had a reservation at 8:15 pm and they set us in the back section and then starting cleaning around us at 9:00 pm. Seemed inappropriate. But will return again and ask to sit in bar area or front section as the ambiance and food was great!

    Everything was amazing! Caleb was a great server, the Chilean sea bass crudo was to die for, all tacos amazing, and the margaritas were a HIT! New date spot for sure!

    Food is extraordinary! Tried everything our group ordered and can recommend the Caesar, cactus salad, tacos, mushroom enchilada, Airline chicken(incredible mole), sea bass (best ever), and barbacoa. My favorite is the Tommy - light and limey- margarita but all the cocktails are exceptional- try the one that is smoking through skull on top of the glass. Wonderful, attentive service from Jimmy. We all can’t wait to go back and try everything else on the menu!!

    A very beautiful space. However, what was weird to me was the 100 inch TV on the wall in the dining room right above the tables. Very distracting. Food was decent. Would go back

    The restaurant is beautiful! Our server was great! It’s loud. I know it’s a new restaurant but the bar couldn’t keep up and neither could the kitchen. The food is bland, needs salt and pepper at least, but spice and flavor would be great! The “tostadas” they serve as chips with the guacamole are SO HARD…. extremely hard to eat… not good. Asked for chips and they don’t have any. Ordered tacos but you can’t get any sides, they don’t have them… no rice or beans or anything else. I had the mushroom enchiladas, also lacking in flavor, 2 small enchiladas with mushrooms only, no cheese and they were cold and $22 - $11 per enchilada…. And nothing else on the plate. The duck tacos came with a broth for dipping….basically hot water… no flavor. I realize they want to be an upscale Mexican restaurant, they want a different menu then a typical Mexican restaurant….but the menu is small, portions are small, very little flavor and expensive for what you get. Needs work….

    I’ll start with they are trying. I can see where they may end up. It is so loud in there the poor host could barely hear on the phone, with that we were not greeted immediately. The 2nd host had to almost yell to talk to us. Last night we were seated directly at the front door, that’s a tough spot because people come in and out all night and the cold air blows in. Short wait for our friends so we ordered a drink and the sea bass crudo. The watermelon cocktail was so sour lime I couldn’t drink it and asked for a sprite to try and save it. Our server was very nice, hair should be pulled back and contained so when she’s serving at the table it’s not falling down into her face and plates. Needs needs a little polishing when it comes to fulfilling items when the table asks for them. Serve over right shoulder, open armed. Know where to place silverware and glasses. Wine didn’t come, extra silverware didn’t come and then one entree didn’t make it to the table. The guacamole was very small and I’m not a fan of the chip they serve. One whole tortilla, hard to share when you’re with other people as you have to touch the whole thing to break it. They also needed to be baked or fried more. Very chewy. My second cocktail the mango was better. Loved the Ceasar salad, had the cheese empanada it was just ok very bland and oily. My husband loved the fish and our friends loved the enchiladas and the beef stew when it came late to the table. Overall I feel I would return, the sauces were definitely the best part of all the dishes so cheers to the saucier. The bussers and food runners worked their butts off last night and I appreciate dirty plates gone from the table quickly.
