" Madre Cocina is a breath of fresh air in the Fort Collins dining scene! On our visit, we were treated to the most amazing pork belly tacos I've ever tasted. The blend of textures was delightful. Additionally, the casual yet classy atmosphere allowed us to enjoy our meal without feeling rushed. The staff was knowledgeable about the cocktails, which paired excellently with our dishes. I will be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing dining experience from start to finish! We arrived without a reservation and were warmly welcomed. The mole on the pollo almendrado was a highlight for me—rich, flavorful, and unlike anything I've had in Colorado. I also appreciated that the cocktails were expertly crafted—refreshing yet complex. The staff went above and beyond to cater to our needs, making us feel special throughout our meal. Madre is sure to become my go-to spot for Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had such a wonderful experience here. The atmosphere is chic and vibrant, a perfect spot for a night out. We tried the guacamole with crispy pork belly as an appetizer—what a fantastic combo! The entrees, especially the asada madre, were top notch, bursting with flavor. Though a bit on the pricier side, the experience and quality of food justify every penny. This restaurant has definitely made its mark on Fort Collins! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came to Madre expecting a standard Mexican meal, but what I found was truly exceptional! The flavors of each dish are crafted with care, and you can truly feel the authenticity in every bite. I particularly enjoyed the enchiladas with a unique twist—they were the best I’ve ever had! The bartender also whipped up a phenomenal cocktail that was not overly sweet—just perfect! The atmosphere is perfect for families or gatherings. Can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the decor set a beautiful tone for the evening. The ribeye tacos were divine, packed with flavor like no other in the area. Our server was friendly and attentive, explaining menu items passionately. We also enjoyed a refreshing margarita that complemented our meal perfectly. I can't recommend this place enough for a date night or a gathering with friends. We'll definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" This charming restaurant has quickly become my favorite spot! The atmosphere is warm, and the staff is attentive and personable. I couldn’t get enough of the mole sauce on my chicken! It was to die for! I look forward to returning to sample more of their impressive cocktail menu. This place is a must-visit for anyone who loves authentic Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Madre is a delightful combination of great food and vibrant atmosphere. We shared several dishes, and each one was bursting with flavor. The ribeye taco may have been my favorite—turns out sharing was a mistake! The cocktails were equally impressive, and the servers were friendly and knowledgeable. This place will surely become a regular stop for us. " (*Curated Review*)
