A new option has joined Woodland Park’s busy Mexican food scene. Tacos El Amigo #4 has officially opened in the shopping center anchored by Safeway, taking over the space previously occupied by Serrano’s, which has since relocated to Florissant.
Tacos El Amigo is not new to the area. The restaurant already operates three other locations, two in Colorado Springs and one in Fountain, all of which have built strong followings and consistently high ratings. The Woodland Park location marks the brand’s first expansion into Teller County.
The restaurant describes itself as a casual spot focused on comfort food and quick bites, with a menu centered around tacos, burritos, and other Mexican favorites. One of the standout offerings is their birria tacos, which have become a highlight at their other locations and are already drawing attention from local diners.
With several established Mexican restaurants already serving the Woodland Park community, competition is strong, but Tacos El Amigo enters the scene with a proven track record and an existing customer base familiar with the brand. Its location near Safeway places it in a high-traffic area, making it an easy stop for both locals and visitors.
As the restaurant settles in, it adds another option for residents looking for casual, fast Mexican fare and continues the trend of new dining spots filling long-standing restaurant spaces in Woodland Park.
