Denver Top 10 Mexican Restaurants
Benny's Restaurante y Tequila Bar
Address: 301 E 7th Ave, Denver, CO 80203
As twilight falls over the gently sloped streets of Capitol Hill, it's not unusual to see a crowd lingering at Seventh and Logan. Put your name in for a table at this ever-lively Mexican eatery and you'll soon be part of the throng. Happily, food and drink are worth the wait – well-stuffed enchiladas, crispy sopapillas with honey, and delicious...
El Taco de Mexico
Address: 714 Santa Fe Dr, Denver, CO 80204
Tiny and brightly painted, this corner eatery is home to traditional Mexican eats offered at very affordable prices. The menu is expansive and in Spanish, but even first-timers can order a delicious meal without too much trouble. Favorites include tacos filled with your choice of cabeza (beef cheeks), carnitas, and even brains. Cilantro, lime,...
El Tejado
Address: 2651 S Broadway, Denver, CO 80210
Enjoy live mariachi music at El Tejado, and indulge in authentic Mexican goodies with friends. The place isn't exotic, but it does promise consistent food, affordable prices, and fun atmosphere. Seafood dishes are the specialty, especially huachinango (garlic-marinated fried red snapper) and campechana (shrimp, oysters, and octopus in a cool,...
Lola
Address: 1575 Boulder St, Denver, CO 80211
Garnering high praise in its early years, Lola quickly emerged as a force to be reckoned with. Innovative Mexican and Latin American fare, an emphasis on seafood, and a near-comprehensive selection of tequilas ensure a quality experience. Try fresh guacamole prepared tableside, sample seafood enchiladas, or choose from a wide variety of fish,...
Mezcal
Address: 3230 E Colfax Ave, Denver, CO 80206
Yet another of the pleasant surprises Colfax Avenue has to offer, Mezcal is known for top-shelf margaritas and reasonably priced portions of no-frills, south-of-the-border cuisine. Two types of lime combined with high-quality triple sec and tequila make for a perfectly crafted 'rita that's topped several local "best-of" lists. Soft tacos, gigantic...
Patzcuaro's
Address: 2616 W 32nd Ave, Denver, CO 80211
Within its simply-adorned space, Taqueria Patzcuaro offers delicious eats for a bargain. Whet your appetite with one of their signature fruit drinks, and munch on complimentary chips and salsa. Then, peruse the menu and try to come to a decision, faced with the selection of tacos, chiles rellenos, burritos, and enchiladas. Although it may be tough...
Sabor Latino
Address: 4340 W 35th Ave, Denver, CO 80212
Patrons are happy to know that Sabor Latino delivers exceptional Mexican and South American fare at reasonable prices. One bite of a homemade empanada and you'll know you've made the right choice. Burritos, tamales, and enchiladas also line the menu, but the paella on Fridays and Saturdays, and the Bistec a lo Pobre (a ribeye topped with a fried...
Tamayo
Address: 1400 Larimer St, Larimer Square, Denver, CO 80202
A rooftop deck that affords gorgeous views of the Front Range makes Tamayo a natural after-work gathering spot. Nationally-renowned chef Richard Sandoval's offering in Denver, this sleek, contemporary Mexican restaurant is appreciated equally for its to-die-for margaritas and tequilas and its unexpected, delicious takes on old standards. Here, the...
