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.
