Wild Taco - Berkeley

★★★★☆ 4 (44) • $$

"We went on a Tuesday (Taco!) during Happy Hour.Started with chicharrones. Well executed, but not my style as I prefer meaty ones. The mild hot sauce was very tasty.Guacamole & chips. A decent-sized portion of guac. The chips are clearly not homemade.The carnitas tacos was filled with perfectly cooked shredded pork.The KFT taco was delicious. I will order this again.The other tacos were OK.+ Very good service. Friendly and knowledgeable.+ Atmosphere is comforting. I noticed that macrame and ferns are back.+ Average flatware- Paper napkins- TVs (I hate TVs in restaurants)- Kitchen staff surcharge$80.98 for dinner for 2 including tax and tip."

Tacos El Comelon - Lake Avenue Inn

★★★★★ 4.9 (14)

"Have been here a handful of times and have never been disappointed! Located in a rustic neighborhood bar (Lake Ave), the food is a hidden gem!!! Everything I have ever had has been fantastic! The tacos are hot and fresh and packed with delicious ingredients! The veggie taco is surprisingly good!! A nice variety of seasoned vegetables that are stuffed in a homemade tortilla! Their green chili is homemade and extremely flavorful. Nice kick to it! The owners are always very attentive and quick to help. I would definitely recommend trying it, and grab a drink from the bar as well"

Tacos El Metate

★★★★☆ 4.3 (166)

"Wish they had more parking options nearby. Ambiance inside was enjoyable. Good customer service. The food was delicious. We enjoyed our fresh tacos very much. A couple fish tacos and some carnitas tacos. We also enjoyed the horchata drink. We will be back for more. Fair pricing. I think a few chips should automatically come with the tacos. And it would be nice to see more combo items with tacos, chips and a drink."

Pancho & Jane

★★★★☆ 4.4 (37)

"What a great lunch find. Thanks Yelp. The beef belly taco and the carnitas were amazing. Bursting with flavor on house made corn tortillas. My server was spot on, helpful friendly and made sure she had things out is short order. Pancho & Jane is relatively new, open only a few months, but I believe they have that special quality ingredient that will make them successful. I was impressed with the drink menu, although since it was mid day I did not partake. I will definitely go back some evening when I can have a few of their margaritas or mescal cocktails. The bar is large and cool. Reminds me of a resort in Mexico somewhere. Parking on the street can be tricky. I will be back soon."

Ni Tuyo

★★★★★ 4.7 (148) • $$

"I've been wanting to try this place for a while now and finally made it here! They do not take reservations so you wait in person for your table to be ready! Luckily, we got in around 8.20 pm on Friday evening which is a bit late for dinner but we got a table instantly. I got the papayita drink which was alright and my husband got the Paloma which was good. Our friend was visiting from India and had never tried mezcal, he tried the mahahali drink and that was really good! For apps we got the elote corn and guacamole - both were freshly made. I personally loved the elote corn. For mains we got the tacos - I loved the pork belly tacos, it was almost like the al pastor but better. Our friend is a vegetarian and got the Rajas which he loved. We also got the veggie enchiladas and the pollo main dish - they were both so well made. Overall, I liked the food here! I am glad we stopped by for dinner here."

Blanco Cocina + Cantina

★★★★☆ 3.9 (279) • $$

"I remember when Blanco landed in Denver a few years back. I was blown away by the beautiful build out and their dedication to revitalizing this part of town. Years later, it's grown into one of my favorite chain restaurants because the food, service and cocktails are consistently top notch!Our last visit solidified it being a go-to when in this part of town. 9+Co has plenty of options, albeit many chain-type places. Blanco (and their other concept, Culinary Dropout) have always separated themselves from the rest.*Don't miss the weekday happy hour (3-6pm) and all day on Tuesdays*WARM QUESO ($13) -- Guacamole, Sour Cream, Pico de Gallo. We added Ground Beef ($3) and this elevated the already good queso into G R E A T queso. Chips were salted and perfectly crispy. The queso had the texture we all crave and love, and with the surrounding accoutrements we were devouring it faster than a race car at the Indy 500.TIGER SHRIMP FAJITAS ($23) -- Spicy Garlic Butter, Served with Caramelized Peppers & Onions, Elote, Guacamole, Pico De Gallo & Queso Blanco. Choice of Black or Charro Beans. I can't tell you the last time I ordered fajitas, but I'm really glad I ordered these. The amount of food alone was worth the price of admission. The shrimp were plump and juicy and had a great snap. The tortillas are made in house and you can absolutely taste the difference.Not to mention, my Cadillac Margarita, and even the salsa that came with the chips to begin the meal, were excellent. I literally have zero negatives at Blanco. Service is always spot on, and the vibes (whether indoors or on the patio) are always lively and fun.Impressed with this place since day one. No signs of slowing down. Check 'em out if you want a delicious meal in a trendy setting!"

The Mansion on Colfax

★★★★☆ 4.4 (57)

"Great spot for some delicious pierogis and happy hour where the infused in-house vodkas are buy one, get one. Also, a good Saturday/Sunday brunch spot, too. They had a great brunch deal then it changed with new ownership but then it got better again, so I'm just trying to keep up with it!The happy hour for some reason only includes the fried pierogies but off the regular menu you can get the steamed with this ever-so-yummy onion butter over the top of them. It sounds so simple but it's so good! Both styles are good, actually. Also tried the happy hour flatbread recently, it was just ok probably won't order it again. I'll have to go back for brunch again soon since they changed the prices up a little bit again. FYI, this is also the former Kingas restaurant, now called The Mansion since the owner sold it."

McDevitt Taco Supply

★★★★★ 4.5 (40)

"So good! Loved this place. The tacos were so great. The service was amazing. Loved that the server was so friendly and had fun with her talking about the tacos. The burnt end tacos were one of the best tacos i have ever eaten. Crazy good!"

Tacomiendo

★★★★★ 4.6 (14)

"Love this place! My partner and I come by at least every other week for their Tacos and Party Fries. The cost is very reasonable and the meats are well seasoned!"

Tacos Los Norteños

★★★★★ 4.6 (42)

"I got sucked in my the smell of sizzling meat as I did a quick liquor store run; as I hadn't had lunch I thought why not get a burrito to go real quick. The food was pretty good; there were some fatty pieces that I ended up giving to the cat. I also do question if it was Al pastor as it tasted and looked a bit more like carne asada lol but maybe that's just how they do their pork? Idk I would probably come back to try their tacos and tortas but I'm probably not going out of my way to go way to 136th if you know what I mean. I would totally stop by if I'm in the area.Oops almost forgot to the mention. Their green salsa is great. Definitely get that one if you have to choose. The red probably had a bit more heat but a little less flavor. Go with the green!"

Tacos Chihuas

Taco Bron

★★★★☆ 4.4 (71) • $$

"This is a new taco spot in downtown Denver and first impressions, it's very clean with a lot of seating options and there's a lot of room so you don't feel cramped. There are so many taco options and if you come early, they have a breakfast menu.I ordered the Al Pastor and Cubano tacos and both were so good. Both tacos have a lot of flavor and you get a good amount of protein in each. There is a sauce station near the napkins so don't forget to add some salsa and onions to your taco order."

Vegan Van

★★★★★ 4.5 (158) • $$

"Little tricky to find the entrance of the restaurant but big seating inside.The receptionist was really good and provided good recommendations. Limited choices on drinksCrunch wrap - 5/5 - really tastyFries nachos with beef - 5/5 - great taste and fillingBeef taco - 3.5/5 - lacks flavor"

Mister Oso

★★★★☆ 4.1 (388) • $$

"This place was suggested by a Colorado native and it was good. The overal ambiance was good, but the food, in my humble opinion, left a bit to be desired. What's interesting about this place, if you order tacos, they come in a big tin, with meat, and tortillas. Assembly required. But the thing was, there were three of us, and they put all the different proteins in one platter. We didn't know what was what. Overall, the food was flavorful, but nothing really stood out."

Pancho's Birrias Y Mas

★★★★★ 4.6 (47)

"That algorithm got me nice and good throwing nothing but birria tacos in my face and I just HAD to get in on it! Not the easiest task finding some in town, so we drove all the way to Lakewood to find Pancho's Birrias y Mas.No line when we went for a late lunch on a weekday and the food came out quickly. Believe the hype because birria is where it's at! Amazing, juicy beef and that consomme! I really don't know how I'm gonna eat tacos any other way from now on - I mean to dip or not to dip...in that flavorful, delicious consomme... how do you just NOT..??I had to knock a star off of this review because that taco dip price just seemed kinda steep to me - one taco with one big cup of consomme came to $4.75. I've admittedly gone to a couple other birria spots since visiting Pancho's and the price was a little better at both. With that said though, these tacos are just on a whole 'nother level and I would definitely come back if the birria craving ever hit while I'm in the area."

Tacos Tequila Whiskey

★★★★☆ 4 (553) • $$

"I had no idea until recently that the other TTW location closed down. Bummer! I actually enjoyed my experience at the Highlands location more than I did the first time, which was a pleasant surprise. Cocktails are strong (got a Serrano Marg & Pinche Paloma) - would come back just for those! They have a ton of high-end tequilas and mezcals, it seems.On top of their incredlble Queso Gringo, I ordered 3 tacos: hongos, quesobirria, and pork belly pastor. Been trying to perfect my order as time goes on. Would definitely get the hongos & quesobirria again, switching out the third taco for something different. They're all filling either way. Still have yet to come here for happy hour!"

Kalaka Berkeley

"Lovely outside patio and nice indoor ambiance. Service was very good. Enjoyed the green chili queso but it was a bit salty. Street tacos were good but not amazing. Seemed a bit pricey."

Wild Taco Denver - Govs Park

★★★★☆ 4.4 (137) • $$

"We have patronized Wild Taco twice I. The last twoMonths. Both times the food and service were solid and the outdoor patio is just right after 7pm. Tonight with had the carne asada yucca fries which are amazing. A meal on its own but definitely a nice way to start. For tacos we had the coconut shrimp special which had just the right amount of sweet and spicy. I could have used a tad more slaw but loved the pineapple and fresh coconut. The chicken tinga are on the Monday night HH all night special for 3.50 and are a big portion of chicken. InOur last visit we had the taco Tuesday special with tacos and a margarita for cheap. It was good too. The drinks here are very good and reasonably priced. It's worth the 1.5 mile walk to eat here."

Monterrey House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (74) • $

"There's a steady flow of people in and out ... regulars hug the staff / owners and the food is super good- homemade- hot and fast- you can tell this is a local favorite.-Many times over ... so nice to see ..."

Tacos & Ranchitos

★★★★☆ 3.8 (13)

Brutø

★★★★☆ 4.4 (111)

"Writing this review brings tears to my eyes because it was such a treat dining at one of Denver's first Michelin-starred restaurants. Brutø was just as you'd expect from the reservation flow on Tock to the seating process upon arrival. My partner and I came here for our anniversary and felt incredibly special throughout the evening. I'm still drooling over the menu.Everything was exquisite, served with detail and enthusiasm. My favorite dish was probably the Lamb + Eggplant because I had no idea lamb or eggplant could taste so emotional. The bison carpaccio as part of the Canapes was also delightful. I'm sure none of this will sound familiar as Brutø rotates their menu, but all I'm saying is that it's worth saving up to visit.I didn't do their alcohol pairings and went down the street for a brief happy hour instead, since we got to Dairy Block earlier than expected. From experience, call a car if you're doing any of their pairings. I had some FOMO from our neighbors that indulged. Maybe next time! I will forever cherish the printed menu from our dinner, to keep the memories alive."

Federales - Denver

★★★★☆ 3.8 (201) • $$

"Two year later, the Hatch Chile Nachos at Federales are still fantastic! Came here with my friend after a happy hour event, and I love how late they're open. I already had my fill of margaritas but couldn't resist a heaping pile of dressed-up nachos. Every chip had plenty of toppings. It was all delicious. Service at the bar was fine. Definitely gets a little rowdy but would keep coming back again whenever I'm partying out in RiNo."

La Distileria

★★★★☆ 3.7 (30)

"Being a truly NAFTA family, who has lived in Mexico and Canada, we have international tastes. What I was most impressed with was the friendliness of the staff and and owner. Their liquor license had been temporarily suspended due to the faults of the state. Now booze is back. I had the Barria tacos and a nice salad. My spouse had the pozole. It wasn't quite what she read expected, but when she put wine in it, taste improved. Perhaps the Cook should just squeeze the lime in it ahead of time. She still thought that it tasted different from she's had in Mexico. She did like that. She liked my Birria better.I read the reviews of Alex A, Mary D, and Linda B. These spoiled-brat harridans came with American expectations and did not realize that this is a part of Chilango cuisine. Sure, I could work a week-or-two in that kitchen and probably improve the items on the menu and the menu itself but all in all I think it is a good place. We will return."

Highlands Cork & Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.6 (250) • $

"Stopped by for a quick lunch (egg on a bagel) and fell in love with this place. The food was 3/5 but the service, vibe and overall experience was 5/5. Loads of charm, warm and inviting interior and friendly staff. Sometimes it's about the experience and the memories - this is the type of place that will make you feel special. Give them a try!"

The Goldfinch

★★★★★ 4.6 (23)

"My friend and I came here for brunch last week. We came right when it opened and had no trouble getting seated. I'm glad more places are starting to offer brunch because I really hate waiting. The ambience is definitely that of a cocktail lounge, but very comfortable. We started with bloody marys and asked for spicy. They didn't come out spicy (granted, we really like spice) but the mix is all very thin. I prefer a thicker bloody, so I wouldn't order this again.We opted for a bottle of bubbly rose next and that was delightful. For our entrees, I had the Shakshuka and my friend had the Breakfast Skillet. I loved how saucy mine was and the flavor was great- but it came out luke warm, so I would have preferred hotter. My friend said the Breakfast Skillet was very good. Overall, I think the best aspect of this place is the ambiance. I'd certainly return!"

Kiké's Red Tacos

★★★★☆ 4.4 (225) • $$

"The place to go for taco Tuesday!A local food truck turned brick and mortar is all the rage here in the highlands neighborhood of Denver. Located just off 38th this is a happening place for great tacos, burritos, nachos and ramen. If you like birria style this is your place. The consume' looked rich and flavorful. This attracts a pretty young crowd but definitely all ages were in the house when we went. Seating is pretty limited to be honest. I'm guessing the restaurant will host 50 people, the bar can seat a total of 10. In warmer weather the patio adds another 20% more capacity. When we arrived at 6:30 on Tuesday we snagged the only table which accommodated 2 people. The line was short. By 7pm the lines was well over 20 people deep with folks waiting around to snag open tables. Lots of to go orders as well. Chips and guacamole are pretty standard. Guacamole is good but nothing unique. Al pastor tacos were yummy. Love the red corn tacos. The queso taco Al pastor was REALLY GOOD. That's what I'm having next time!!The fries with queso were good but I'm going to try a burrito next time. Looking around at other tables, the burritos and quesadillas looked amazing!! Visit the salsa bar to get all the necessary additions like pineapple, cucumbers, radishes and lots of salsas. Definitely plan a return trip try more menu options. I definitely recommend earlier rather than later. By 7pm the place was chaos. I liked that when we got to the checkout they were clear about the wait time for food to avoid any disappointment."

Taco El Pueblita

★★★★★ 4.8 (5)

"Their menu is difficult to read, but they have what I was looking for: street tacos. Most of them are $2.50. There's a salsa bar for you to grab your own items such as hot, medium sauces, limes, radish, and cucumber slices. The asada, chicken and al pastor tacos were great! The cheese quesadilla hit the spot and the chili fries were good too. The chili fries had a smokiness to it, i don't necessarily enjoy smokiness in my food, but it wasn't overwhelming. Unlike the former restaurant, there were no comp chips (for dining in) or a self-serve water station. All beverages are either canned or bottled. The place looks great with the fresh coat of paint and it's pretty clean. A little too simple inside, but I went for the tacos - not the decor."

Cochino Taco

★★★★☆ 3.7 (444) • $$

"Sat on patio with dog. Queso happy hour chips were alright. I like the seasoning on the chips. Queso was very liquidy tho. The chorizo burrito was okay. Not as good as I remember. Server wasn't very friendly, didn't even look us in the eyes when talking to us. Overall just ok."

Tacos Y Mariscos El Guti

★★★★☆ 4.1 (18)

"OMG the Quesabirria Tacos are amazing! I got the 4 Tacos with the bowl of Consume. It was stellar! The side sauces are spicy and delicious.This is a taqueria-style restaurant. You can dine onsite, but most people order take out or DoorDash. You order and pay at the counter before your meal. They have water and soft drinks, but do not serve alcohol. There is limited off street parking in front of the restaurant."

Mister Oso

★★★★☆ 4.2 (92) • $$

"As a fan of Señor bear, I didn't expect anything less from Mister Oso. Starting with the music-- it's a playlist of all the current reggaeton/Latin pop hits (I'm looking at you Bad Bunny fans) -Decor is a fun beachy feel replete with neon signs and some Denver-friendly greenery. Seating options include a covered patio which we took advantage of. -Service was great! We were able to place orders shortly and food came out at a perfect pace. -saving the best for last: food (it goes without saying drinks are great-- def Señor Bear caliber but with more casual offerings too like NA agua frescas)Tacos generally are deconstructed and served with 3 fresh flour tortillas per order. The tortillas themselves are just perfect, but add in any assortment of fillings (fried mushroom, carnitas, birria) and you're in taco paradise. Every taco entree is thoughtfully made and with a distinct flavor profile and topping/sauce. The family style serving is pretty genius since you can mix/match said sauces to your heart's content. Despite how amazing these tacos are, don't sleep on the appetizers or dessert-- queso fundido, coconut rice (same same but different from Señor bear's coconut rice croquettes) and ofc churros with salted caramel!"
