Denver has its share of neighborhood sports bars, but you’d be hard pressed to find any that serve Vietnamese food as good as Long Shots Bar & Grill in Wheat Ridge. Eating noodle bowls or spring rolls in a dive bar might sound like a bizarre juxtaposition, but somehow it works. But if you want […]

The Mountain Sun group channels the spirit of those college roommates who maintained a constant house party, complete with a keg and a rotating roster of friends. The five pubs are a front for a microbrewery, and they each maintain a line of about twenty taps for the Sun’s own solid, award-winning craft beers. During […]
The Lookin’ Good is a blessed throwback to the times when neighborhoods had lounges, places to eat and drink and gather for some music or just merriment. The family-owned diner was established back in 1978, when eggs were eggs, everything came with gravy, and we just called yacht rock the Top 40. The Lookin’ Good […]
This small, family-friendly neighborhood cafe is warm and crowded during the day and loud and crowded after dark. The big kitchen is constantly at work banging out food that may not yet be ubiquitous in Denver, but certainly should be. The house specialty is huaraches: long, open-faced slabs of corn masa topped with whatever is […]

Troy Guard is out to make the 2400 block of Larimer Street the taco the town with Los Chingones, a stylish taqueria that he opened there at the end of 2013. For decades, this block was home to the Bamboo Hut, a Mexican restaurant that made grease-dripping fried tacos; in contrast, the tacos on the […]
Troy Guard made the 2400 block of Larimer Street the taco the town with Los Chingones, a stylish taqueria he opened there at the end of 2013, ten blocks and a world away from his flagship restaurant, TAG. He now has four locations of his “bad-ass” eatery, all offering the same menu of tacos — […]

Troy Guard made the 2400 block of Larimer Street the taco the town with Los Chingones, a stylish taqueria he opened there at the end of 2013, ten blocks and a world away from his flagship restaurant, TAG. The second outpost of his “bad-ass” eatery opened in November 2015 in the Belleview Station development, offering […]

This staple in the southern suburbs that opened in 2002 is better known for its Mexican cuisine reminiscent of the food its founder Jose Ramirez’s hometown of Jerez, Mexico, than for Denver-style grub, but Los Dos Potrillos knows how to make a killer green chile and much more. Now with four locations, the family-owned hospitality […]
When we were putting together our 2011 Best of Denver issue, there were many spirited discussions about which chile made us the greenest with envy — and while there were several viable contenders, none was more worthy than Los Farolitos, where the green chile, tarted up with tomatillos and gobsmacked with heat, is simply terrific.
This tiny strip-mall snack bar didn’t get our attention for the riot of colors on its exterior – though the orange-and-yellow storefront and fedora-wearing mango mascot are definitely eye-catching – but rather for the elusive Sonoran hot dog served within. This perro caliente is as intimidating as it is delicious, with a bacon-wrapped dog, a […]
When husband-and-wife owners Hector Hugo Soto and Adriana Chávez opened Los Mesones in 2006, there were three other Mexican restaurants nearby. Now, only Los Mesones remains, but it’s still serving the neighborhood well, with a sprawling, multi-page menu loaded with options, from whole, deep-fried tilapia and molcajetes overflowing with meat to staples like enchiladas, tacos […]

Los Trompitos is proof that some of Aurora’s Mexican food can stand up against Denver’s finest. This white-and-red structure on Montview Boulevard contains many Mexican mainstays — a salsa bar, tacos, and so on — but the breakfast burritos are worth sampling at least once. The biggest difference between these breakfast burritos and all the […]
Better-than-average Mexican food, starting with a great mol
There aren’t many Cajun eateries in Denver, and the few that do pop up often skew Asian, thanks to the Vietnamese immigrant population that settled in Louisiana and then migrated north. But this Littleton spot is all Southern, and despite the casual vibe, it doesn’t take any shortcuts with the food: The gumbo simmers for […]
