A former Chubby’s spinoff reopened in 2017 as Tacos Los Compas, this spot offers an assortment of burritos, tacos, enchiladas, tortas and – most important – carne asada fries, a late-night must for after-hours diners. The hefty order of loaded fries will test the limits of a plastic takeout bag, so carry that precious cargo […]

Watch for a gathering crowd and smoke rising at at the corner of South Federal Boulevard and West Exposition Avenue: That’s the site of Tacos Marlene, a spot that cooks up some of the best street food in town.

Early-morning, mid-afternoon or late-night Mexican munchies can be sated at Tacos Rapidos, where carne asada-smothered fries, tacos stuffed with beef, pork or tongue meat, and breakfast burritos with bacon, sausage, potatoes and eggs are served all day. There are three Tacos Rapidos outposts – one on West Alameda Avenue, one about twenty minutes south facing […]
Kevin Morrison started with Pinche Tacos, a truck that proved so popular he soon had a brick-and-mortar spot in Capitol Hill, Pinche Taqueria, which won our Best New Restaurant in the Best of Denver 2012. And in February 2013, he opened a second location in Highland and promptly changed both restaurants’ names to Tacos Tequila […]
Tacos y Salsas is a tough place to miss — all the outposts of this growing local chain are as shiny and carnival-colored as their surroundings are gray and grim. The food at this taqueria shines just as bright, with excellent meats sliced and seared right in front of you. You can doctor your dishes […]

There’s more to Peruvian cuisine than ceviche and lomo saltado, and that’s why Taita was such a welcome addition to the Denver dining scene when it opened just off Colfax in 2012. While this contemporary Peruvian restaurant does serve all the fare commonly associated with that country, it also offers plenty of other dishes that […]
This local chain got its start in 1981, and the menu has gotten huge over the years, with offerings ranging from shrimp cocktail to Mexican egg rolls as well as a long list of burritos and tacos. But the real draw is the tamales, corn-wrapped packets filled with a classic blend of pork and green […]
While you can get staples like burritos and chiles rellenos at this counter-service spot in the Highland neighborhood, the real draw at Tamales by La Casita is (obviously) the tamales. But while the husk-wrapped masa pockets stuffed with your choice of red chile and pork or green chile with cheese are reason enough to visit, […]

Tamayo’s owner, nationally renowned restaurateur Richard Sandoval, grew up working in his family’s Acapulco restaurants, and when he opened his first restaurant in Colorado, in a prime corner space on Larimer Square, he billed his cross of traditional dishes with contemporary techniques as “Modern Mexican.” But a decade and several restaurants later, Tamayo was beginning […]
Tap Fourteen opened its second Denver beer bar in January 2018, following the original on the rooftop of Hayter’s at 1920 Blake Street. This one is on street level, so it lacks the views of the LoDo location, but the wrap-around patio makes an ideal spot for neighbors and their pooches to wander in for […]
Taqueria Mi Pueblo has held down the corner of 23rd and Federal for the better part of two decades, continuously adding onto and improving both the building and the menu. They’ve joined the $2 breakfast burrito fray that marks this stretch of Federal, they offer a whole roast chicken special done in the style of […]
After a long run on the second-floor corner of 15th and Champa streets, Tarantula Billiards moved to street level a block east in early 2012, giving the pool hall much more visibility. The new space has a sleek and classy look, closer to that of sister pool hall ZanZibar Billiards and Grill, which is owned […]
Tarasco’s peeks out from its corner spot like the shy girl in a homemade dress at her first dance. The interior walls are covered in Spanish aphorisms and descriptions of fruit and vegetable drinks (jugos and licuados), part of chef/owner Noe Bermudez’s dedication to healthy food. Tarasco’s has a way of creating beauty and perfection […]

The original six-seater takeout place on Colorado Boulevard was founded by a guy from Pennsylvania, and even though it’s now owned by folks from south Jersey, they still know how to make a real Philadelphia cheesesteak. It’s a great sandwich in every way, from the caramelized onions to the chopped steak to the American cheese […]
