Locations in Denver
Showing 2267 - 2288 of 4558La Chiva got its start as a food truck in 2015 and moved into its original brick-and-mortar location on South Broadway in 2017. In November 2020, when the space across the street became available, owner and native Colombian Jorge Aguirre relocated his operation, gaining double the seating, an upstairs area and a large back patio. […]
After over four decades in the same location, the Nuñez family still make some of the tastiest Mexican home cooking in town, including fresh handmade tortillas. Settle into one of the restaurant’s turquoise booths and try the green chile, spicy and addictive, which contains all fresh ingredients, or the beef tacos, which come loaded with […]
Chef Jose Avila’s La Diabla has been heaped with praise since opening in 2021 for everything from its namesake pozole to its tacos and stellar house margs, and rightfully so: It does a lot of things well, but we also love the fact that it offers guests a lot of deals on those things. In […]
La Fiesta celebrated sixty years in business in 2023, making it one of Denver’s oldest restaurants that’s still operating in the same location and run by the same family that founded it. Located in a former Safeway, it doles out Denver’s unique style of Mexican food done right. While the late-night dance parties of decades […]
Despite the small size of its original location, La Fillette always made an impressive number of menu items in-house, from bread and croissants to duck confit and sausages. After a move to larger digs in early 2023, the bakery has continued to serve its celebrated baked goods and build-your-own breakfast sandwiches, as well as an […]
The original location of La Fogata, on East Evans Avenue, opened back in 1990 and in 2004, a second spot was later added in the Denver Tech Center. Both eateries are staples in their neighborhoods, and regulars are greeted warmly by longtime staff. The thick, warming, gravy-style green chile is one of the best versions […]

La Forêt, which opened in March 2024 inside the former home of iconic Denver spot Beatrice & Woodsley, honors the previous tenant in a way that’s part homage and part fresh start – and 100 percent gorgeous. Dining here is like entering a real-life enchanted forest, complete with (yes, they’re real) aspen tree trunks. The […]
The tiny kitchen at La Fuente – a groovy, low-rent Mexican joint – turns out big flavors in all its food, but one of the largest draws to this Highland eatery is the plump breakfast burritos. There are nearly a dozen manifestations of them, all featuring soft scrambled eggs and shards of crisp-edged potatoes with […]
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 […]
La Merise is aptly named for the neighborhood that surrounds it. “Merise” means “wild cherry,” and while you may not find anything even vaguely outlandish in the Cherry Creek ’hood these days, you will find classic French fare at this garden-level restaurant. Menu items include the foie gras and escargots to start; follow up with […]
This small, cheery eatery sits like an island bordered on all sides by roads; it’s an oasis of clean, authentic Mexican food. Owner Jose Luis Guereca and his sister cook dishes their mama used to make in Durango, Mexico, and they do it all from scratch. This is the real deal.
Down in Texas, right on the border between El Paso and Juarez, there’s a stand – actually, a shack – that sells the best tamales in the known universe. But they’re only slightly better than the green-chile tamales sold every day at La Popular. These fat rolls of masa, pork and whole chunks of fiery […]
