Carniceria La Despensa Latina

Just a short distance from Denver Airport you'll find Carniceria La Depensa Latina a grocery, butcher shop and restaurant. I'm a huge fan of menudo and base on recommendations from the Yelp Army, we stopped by for a great experience.The Carneceria was a impressive arrangement of Latino decor as well as friendly staff. I ventured over to their menu and was impressed at all the delicious options to have for either breakfast, lunch or dinner. We visited early Sunday for a chance to get menudo and also try their chiliquillies a delicacy of fried tortillas and eggs with salsa, beans and rice.Both dishes were serve hot and filled with incredible flavor. The menudo also came with the usual garnishes as well as hot tortillas. Both dishes were reasonably priced and great portions.Lost of patrons began visiting the store to grab produce as well as prepared meats to take home and either fry or grill. Store was very clean and service was very helpful.If you want great food for some authentic Latino groceries, this is your place. I highly recommend them!

Very friendly great food and a good selection. They will speak English but mostly Spanish A couple of booths if you want to eat in

Bakery and butcher are clutch. Don't sleep on the kitchen or the family taco deals ... Everything's good

Great little butcher meat shop, the premarinated meats like the chicken fajita are great, and found their meat prices are on track with todays market prices. Love their inhouse sausage. Their full of flavor but not over the top. In the food/takeout area english is spotty but youll survive. The overal store is very clean

Great chorizo breakfast burrito, and cheap. As I waited for my burrito, I walked around the market. They have quite an extensive stock of Mexican hardgoods, a decent supply of produce, and a well-stocked butcher section. I will say that as I walked the store, I was surprised how dirty it was..the floors were filthy. There was a stack of clearly rotting produce on one end of the produce section. While they have a great selection of groceries, I find it difficult to believe this place is inspected to the level of a normal chain grocery store in Denver. The burrito was good, but I wouldn't purchase anything here from their produce or meat sections...only canned goods.

Not very good, ordered basic carne asada tacos they were Gooey and didn't taste very good I'm gonna have to give em a hard pass kinda hard to mess up a taco but they did it!

I was in Denver for the 1st time and wound up at this place. All employees were extremely friendly. The ladies making the food were so nice and the food was amazing. If you're looking for real authentic Mexican food, this is the place. It's not only a food market, it's also a place to get food to go or sit there. The food and service was so good, I decided to take pastries to work the next day and they were HUGE and delicious

The BEST chilaquiles I have had here on Denver! They remind me of my moms back home in California. They are spicy, just like I grew up having them. Love their tortilla chips as well. So delicious. Definitely will come again for my fix

plastic bags are 50 cents in there but obviously "EVERYTHING" is 5 times more expensive than a regular grocery store, (thieves)

Really enjoy this place but the produce starts going bad after one day. Not sure if they get cheaper produce or what.
