La Loma

In the ’80s, the Brinkerhoff family created a Den-Mex institution in north Denver, so fans despaired when they sold its original digs in Jefferson Park. But it quickly reopened in a new space in 2016 in another iconic spot — the moody former home of Trinity Grille — and the owners have worked hard to make sure that the food remained as tasty as ever. We like to start with an order of the mini chile rellenos — basically cheddar-cheese egg rolls that you dunk in this restaurant’s iconic green — and margaritas served in glasses the size of fishbowls.
