Taco Fiesta
By Simmer & Sass

This fiesta-inspired menu brings the heart of Mexico and the Colorado-inspired Southwest to your table with fresh, vibrant ingredients and flavors that dance on the palate. Crispy yet tender carnitas and saucy enchiladas sit alongside melty quesadillas and tender, flavor-packed tacos. Our handmade guacamole, bursting with avocados, fresh lime, and cilantro, pairs perfectly with every bite. Street-style elote (corn on the cob)— charred, creamy, and dusted with spice — joins savory beans to round out the feast. Each dish is crafted to capture the brightness, warmth, and spirit of Mexican cuisine. Mix and match to make your own feast that makes all your Mexican dreams come true!

You can adjust the following selections now or later (up to 10 days in advance of your event).
