It is best framed as an easygoing stop for diners who want Mexican food in a tequila-bar setting, with signatures that include street tacos, DIY guacamole, smashed guacamole, a potato and chili enchilada.

Choose it for tequila-bar ease and Mexican grill staples
The strongest reason to come is the combination of a tequila-bar identity and familiar Mexican grill dishes. Bonez is not a venue to describe through awards, chef claims, or a detailed service format; the grounded read is simpler: casual dress, Mexican tequila bar & grill, a handful of known signatures such as street tacos and guacamole.
That makes it a practical Crested Butte choice when the group wants a relaxed meal rather than a highly formal restaurant plan.
The booking decision is low-risk, but groups should plan ahead
Bonez has the kind of profile that makes the decision feel direct: casual dress, daily 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM hours, a short 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM happy hour, a $30-per-person price point. Those facts make it useful for a flexible Crested Butte meal, especially if the timing works around the daily schedule.
Go in with grounded expectations: casual Mexican tequila bar & grill, not a confirmed fine-dining format or award-driven destination. If happy hour is important, note that the window is limited to 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
Use to plan the wider Crested Butte trip
If this is one stop in a longer stay, pair the dinner decision with broader Crested Butte planning and compare it with other dining in Crested Butte generically. For Bonez specifically, the reliable planning hooks are its Mexican tequila bar & grill identity, casual dress code, daily hours, happy hour window, $30-per-person price point, known dishes such as street tacos, DIY guacamole, smashed guacamole, potato and chili enchilada.
