REAL DEAL: Alice's Mexican Cuisine The Gazette
For the lucky few who choose to linger on the right day, Alice makes the best tres leches cake I've ever had. She jazzes up the Mexican sponge cake soaked in three milks (whole, condensed and powdered) with crushed pineapple and a rich frosting.

The food was absolutely delicious! I am a vegetarian and got a very large been burrito covered in cheese sauce which I would kill for the recipe! Very good food and extremely friendly service. Would definitely be a regular if I lived there! I'm from Texas and know my Mexican food, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a better place in Colorado than this! Your taste buds will thank you! (and me).
