Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

This place is so delicious. Although i've only had their chorizo egg burrito and the horchata whoch they make there. Oh man and must i say both are soooo good. I'm going to start exploring the rest of the menu now though. They have a very nice selection.

If you want NM chile and fast service this is not the place. I had their tamales; lack luster with watery red and green chile and not the taste of NM. This is straight up Mexican food.

Quick, fairly cheap, and super yum. None of us tried the tortas, but I got a pork burrito, add chorizo, and it was terrific! A small place in a strip mall, but good for a quick bite to eat. Beware the drug addicts in search of your money outside. Seemed like they had a little set-up over by the side of the parking lot. They're waiting for you!

Tasty, cheap, and quick. Who says you can't have all three. Barbacoa and Carnitas were slow cooked goodness.

We were passing through on our way to Colorado Springs and selected this place based on Yelp reviews. We're so glad we did! The food was delicious and the service was great. The pulled pork tacos were excellent, and my daughter had the breakfast burrito which she said was really good, also. The kids said the mango and banana smoothies were very tasty, and the Cuban torta was great. The lemonade was more like a slushy and hit the spot on a hot day. I would definitely come here again. The reason I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 is because the air conditioner wasn't working and it was quite warm in there. Other than that, we really loved this place.

GREAT EATS right off the main road! The man that took our order was hilarious! He insisted that we drank out of these color changing straws and then showed us pictures of all the Tortas they had to offer. Anyway super tasty food YUM!!!

Wonderful little sandwich/hamburger/burrito/taco/enchilada shop, with smoothies, horchata, flavored drinks from Mexico, juices, and more. Lovely owners who really try to make sure you are having a great dining experience. Go here rather than the gringo fast food spots that line the main drag; you'll be glad you did. Excellante!

This place is great! - Great aguas frescas. Not watered down and very fruity - Tortas were incredible. Bread was fluffy and crisp in all the right places. Meat was cooked and cut in good size pieces. - Prices are relatively cheap, especially since you're getting a freshly cooked meal - Great service

Modestly priced delicious food. Clean restaurant and bathroom. Very friendly staff. We had Barbacoa and beef tongue tacos and chicken enchiladas, and mango Luciano's. All were good.

Wow, what a hidden little gem! Probably the best Torta I have ever had. Very affordable and the portions are nice size. Had a Barbacoa which was loaded with meat, creamy avocado and L&T! The bread was spot on! Also ordered a side of fries. Now, I did not have high hopes for those, however they arrived nice and hot and perfectly crisp. Let me give you a tip if you go and venture into this gem. Put your fries on the Torta and you will not be disappointed! So the lady behind the counter asks if I would like the fresh papaya drink, so I agreed and was expecting it to be watered down. Nope that the case, it was spot on. Place does lack a little ambiance, however look pass that and try some great tasting food.

Apparently all it takes to win my heart is stop-in-your-tracks delicious, greasy, cheap tortas paired with refreshing fruit drinks (agua fresca). Oh yeah, and casual, order-at-the-counter service, unpretentious wrappings, and generous spicy red-and-green-chile straight from the squeezy bottle. We got one carnitas and one barbacoa torta, with mango agua fresca. All of it was perfect - unable to be improved upon. Though we didn't need the English menu, we were offered it by the friendly man behind the counter, who kept eyeing us to make sure we were sufficiently stuffing our faces. (Don't worry, we were.) There was even a bucket of grilled whole chilies next to where the food came out that we could add to our plates as we so wished. This a place you'll drive right by if you're not looking for it. It's flanked by - I don't remember exactly - something like Subway or KFC or something, which is one of the great mysteries of life for me: How is it possible for a given location of Subway/KFC/insert name of national mediocre chain here to still be in business when a place like Tortas Rainbow is right next to it??? Can't be the price - TR is cheap (under $15 for the both of us). It certainly isn't the food quality - TR is miles better. It isn't that no one's willing to take a chance on a new place, right? Because one would think that word would get around a small town like Española. Who knows. This will likely remain a mystery. But I hope that there are legions of road tripping fans and locals alike, who will give this place the accolades and constant business it deserves.

I agree with all the other reviewers; the service was great, the food was great, and the prices are great. The only thing this place lacks is air conditioning. :-(
(4)Julie A.
Good food and fast. I went there on the recommendation of other reviews of this place, and I was not disappointed. Yum!
(5)Barb O.
Really pleased with the food and service. Agree with the other reviewer - why eat at a chain especially when an independent gives back more of its money to the community. Enjoyed a quesadilla with very tasty beef. Prices quite reasonable. Would certainly stop here again.

Torta milenesa- yum! This was the perfect place to stop for a quick on-the-road dinner with seven native Mexicans. We arrived at 8:10 (they closed at 8:00) but the friendly man behind the counter welcomed all eight of us in and fired up the grill. The tortas were delicious, and we were offered red and green salsas in addition to mountains of chiles toreados. They also had plenty of bottled Mexican sodas- Sidral, Sangria Senorial, Jarritos, Mexican Coke, etc. The decor is kitschy and cute, with a stack of free magazines featuring Jennifer Lopez and some posters of local sports teams and musicians. And the milenesa I had beat the pants off of any fast-food hamburger (or Subway from next door) that we could have eaten in Espanola. Thinly pounded meat breaded and fried on a well-used grill, warm jamon, white cheese, veggies and a dot of mayo. And the bun was pretty scrumptious, too. I wasn't a huge fan of the mango licuado that I had (it was slightly sour) but I also probably shouldn't have ordered something with fresh mango in December. Don't waste your money on a bland sandwich from Subway- be bold, and eat a torta!

We stopped by this hole-in-the-wall restaurant during a road trip to from Albuquerque to northern NM. It's located in a small strip mall next to a Subway sandwich shop. They have a small but delicious selection of tortas (sandwiches), soft tacos, burritos, and liquados (fruit juice drinks). They also offer quesadillas and hamburgers for the unadventurous. The chicken (pollo y pico de gallo) burrito was delicious and had a nice spicy kick to it, and the bistek taco platter that a local guy was eating at the next table smelled and looked wonderful. I ordered a mango liquado made with water (you can get it made with milk but I'm lactose intolerant) and what I got was a thick fresh mango juice, like what a mango lassi would be without the yogurt. Very refreshing and not too sweet. The proprietors speak mostly Spanish, as does the majority of the clientele, but there weren't any language barrier problems so I recommend you drop by even if you only speak Gringo.
