Call-aheads and patrons who add themselves to the waitlist online ----PLEASE reply "here" when you arrive or check in at the host stand. La Estrellita uses a call-ahead system that gives our customers a chance to lessen their wait time. "If" and only "if" we are on a wait, you can add your name to our waitlist prior to arriving. If your name comes up before you have checked in or if your whole party has not arrived by the time your name comes up, then you drop to the bottom of the list and the wait begins again. Estimates on this app are just an estimate and we suggest you get to the restaurant as soon as possible. If you would like to remove your name from the waitlist please cancel using the button below.
Before our story began in Brighton, Salome and Stella Montoya operated the first La Estrellita in Fort Lupton, CO from 1955 to 1968. In October 1986, their son John and his family returned to the tradition of providing authentic Mexican cuisine that had long been a part of their family. Today, his daughter, Gina follows her father’s footsteps, just as he followed his parent’s. It has been over three decades since opening in Brighton, and La Estrellita has won multiple awards ranging from our friendly service, to our authentic pork green chile. We can’t wait to serve you, and welcome your family to our kitchen table.
