Mister Oso

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!

The food was tasty and I enjoyed my lamb barbacoa tacos. This dish felt unique with the lamb cheek and shishito peppers. My pear-ginger drink was good but didn't blow me away or anything. The churros, on the other hand, did. They were thin and crispy on the outside but crumbled easily in my mouth and were delicate and soft too! I didn't really care for the dip, but the churros were really tasty on their own! We made a reservation and got a table for 5 pretty easily on a week night. The place was a little loud for conversation, but we made do! That being said, I found the prices to be a little expensive for the amount of food you received. You also assembled the tacos yourself. Overall, I had a good experience and would visit this location again, mostly likely for a special get together with friends!

Great spot for happy hour and delicious tacos! It's not the most authentic food, but it's tasty all the same. The mojo tacos are my favorite--soft succulent carnitas served alongside perfectly crispy plantains. Their guacamole has pumpkin seeds inside it and is nice and flavorful. The highlight of my most recent visit was definitely the elote corn ribs and the cotija ice cream along with some churros. The cotija ice cream has the taste of a salty cheesecake. The service has always been friendly. During the warmer months, they have an outdoor patio, and it can get busy, so I recommend you reserve a table. The interior also has a nice, trendy ambiance. They have their own parking lot next to the restaurant and plenty of street parking, but like I said, it can get busy very quickly particularly on the weekends.

It was very quiet, not busy for our 6 person brunch reservation- waitress was almost completely MIA; ordered the bottomless cocktail for brunch for $30 I got 2 drinks (2 =$24) bc I couldn't ever order from the MIA waitress; we sat down at 12 and didn't leave til 2 bc of how slow service was; after asking for the check, we waited almost 35 min before getting it from waitress. I ordered $30 bottomless cocktail for 2 drinks in 2 hrs, and the $17 salad. Rcvd my check and they add service fees to split between the staff and a service charge =$15 in fees for my 2 drinks and salad $60+ for the snail pace service/ zero attn to the tables' drinks, added fees then it asks for additional tip. WAY OVERPRICED. zero attn to drinks; very very very slow service. dont waste your $$$ and food was just O K. NOT WORTH the trip or the bill

This place is so cute inside if you are looking for a great Mexican restaurant with a beach vibe. Our waitress and her entire team was very kind and attentive. Loved the refills on the chips and salsa/guac. The tortillas here were delicious and I ate so many of them I almost went into a tortilla coma. If you get one thing off the menus, make it the churros. These were the best bite of my entire month. My entree was pretty okay, the chicken was a bit dry and lacked any flavor. I was enticed and let down by the coconut rice which could've been either more sweet or more savory, but ended up just tasting of coconut milk. This meant more room for chips and salsa, which I wasn't upset about.

Very fun Mexican restaurant with great outdoor seating. Pretty lights, space heaters, fully covered.Attentive friendly servers and good with food allergies too. The food itself was very heavily salted and spiced - a bit much for my palate but I think my companions enjoyed it.

We've been wanting to try mister oso for a while, but the main location on larimer is always packed! This second location is more spacious, has a bunch of outdoor seating as well for warmer weather. Dropped in for happy hour, got the death bear nachos while we're good and very cheesy (bring your lactaid). Tacos- had birria which was very hearty/meaty, and the mojo (coconut braised pork shoulder with fried plantains (thought this would be sweet but was actually a nice balance and coconut was very subtle in flavor). We'd come back and probably order a smaller portion (we couldn't quite finish the two taco orders with the HH nachos). But very delicious and worth a try!

I love the Mr. Oso location in Wash park! The patio is a great spot and the service was stellar. We were able to bring our puppy on the porch and he was served water. The food (Pollo Bronco Tacos) were yummy! Things a great spot for dates, friend meetups, and groups. They also take reservations!

Trendy and super fun place! I went to the Wash Park location and the decor is insanely nice. It is well thought out, inviting and fun to experience.The service was good. We had a reservation but had to wait a little to be seated. No big deal there.As per the food, delicious! The margaritas were tasty without being overly sweet.The queso and the Brussel sprouts salad were so good! Def one of my favorite quesos in town. The bbq empanada tasted more like a calzone but delicious nonetheless.We tried the ceviche which tasted fresh and had tons of flavor.For tacos, we got the birria, lamb and beef. All tender, juicy and full of flavor! The tortillas tasted homemade as well! The only negative was the churros which were overdone but otherwise, great experience!

Food 4.5/5 From presentation, texture, to clean ingredients, I loved refreshing horchata with cold brew and guacamole. I took .5 out becuause of tres leches French toast. I think it would be best to try when you have the sweet tooth. Tres leches usually reminds me of moist/milk dripping texture but this version was thick, crispy, sticky, and suppppper sweet. Service 5+/5Super friendly. Informative. Attentive ! Everyone was welcoming vibe and chillaxing. Even for the tres leches French toast, I was told it will be pretty sweet so I knew what to expect at least more than by 80 percents (lol)Ambiance 4.5/5Interesting vibe. Colorful, warm, fun. They got nice patio as well for warmer weather. Definitely a stop to go before or after wash park! I definitely enjoyed this Michelin bib gourmand restaurant of 2023 Denver ! Exciting experience
