Efrains Mexican Restaurant ·$$

Situated in Lafayette, Efrain’s Mexican Restaurante and Cantina is one of the three chain Mexican restaurants. The dishes are cooked in Northern Chichuahua style and are spicy. Chile Verde (re-fried beans with cheese and chile verde in flour tortilla), Chile Colorado (tender diced pork in variety of chiles, serve with Spanish rice and salad) and Efrain's Special Chile Verde Bowl are some of the best dishes from their menu. The drinks menu is very impressive with a list of margaritas, tequilas, wines and beers. Being a three times winner of the People's Choice Award for the best Mexican food in Boulder, Efrain's is a place you must check out!
