El Taco de Mexico

Denver, CO 80204

View Ad

Stop in El Taco de Mexico during the worst crush of a busy rush, and you'll be in the most jumbled, bungled, mingled, noisy, crowded and cosmopolitan spot in the entire city. The narrow space (which includes a diner-style counter and a few hard plastic booths) will be full of wholesome kitchen smells and packed with people chasing after El Taco's reputation -- regulars from the neighborhood, Denver foodies with a yen for the simple charms of authentic old Mexico City flavors, cholos, gringos and everyone in between.
