First time visiting Ni Tuyo. Absolutely loved it. The margs were delicious. The Fundido and the Elote were wonderful starts. 3 of us shared the Ni Tuyo MOLCAJETES. It was so good and there was plenty of good for 3. Our waitress was very attentive and personable. Overall very happy with our new find! We'll be back!!!

Very tasty gourmet tacos and an amazing cocktail menu. And their tacos, they're FAT. They double wrap a pile a of meat in a standard, street taco-sized corn tortilla, but everything stays together really well and is pretty easy to eat (just a little messy). My favorite taco was surprisingly the carne asada, it was bursting with flavor. I'm not very enthusiastic about carne asada tacos generally, but theirs is probably one of the best I've had. They don't chop the asada into fine pieces like a normal carne asada taco, they give you a few thick slices instead.I really liked the habanero salsa on their pork belly tacos - very tasty and spicy. The pork belly was a bit dry though. I also really liked the shrimp tacos, very tasty and refreshing. Where we ran into an issue was with the birria tacos. Many of us got the birria tacos and all of us were spitting out chunks of fat. They also give you probably the saddest little bowl of consume you'll probably ever see to go alongside of it. The bowl of consume is so small, you can't even fit the taco in it to dip it in, and the bowl is half full on top of that. A big component of the Ni Tuyo experience is the cocktails. They have a really extensive cocktail menu where everything looks good. The menu is so tempting, it's hard to not try to run the gauntlet. The strength of the drinks I'd say is medium, so you won't need to be carried out of there if you do try a couple. It's very lively spot when it gets busy and the decor on the walls is very nice, which makes for nice ambience. The service is good but could be better. Mainly, I think they're really stingy with the napkins. When my hands were dripping after eating the tacos, I asked for more napkins and they literally just have me a single napkin instead of the pile I required. For a place like this, I also think their appetizer program could be stronger. We did the salsa trio, but only the standard red salsa stood out. And the queso was nothing special. The only other thing that I really saw stand out was the ceviche. Nevertheless, I do see myself returning to try more of their cocktails and give their recommend molcajetes a shot. I don't think you should expect anything you get here to absolutely blow you away, but they do set you up for a nice meal. Also, it's not cheap here so do keep that in mind.

There's something so dramatic about a molcajete arriving bubbling hot on your table, and even better is when the meal actually tastes just as good as it looks. The dish is easily shareable by 2 to 3 people, so while it may be a pricier item on the menu, the size justifies the spend. The giant shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the sauce was delicious. If you are someone who likes a little bit of everything, I can't recommend a better dish on this menu. To share, we also got some chips, the salsa trio, and guacamole. The guacamole was fine, but none of the salsas were notable, they are just ok. To drink, I had a mezcalrita which I didn't really care for. It could have used a lot more citrus and it tasted a bit diluted. I had a sip of my partner's Oaxacan Old Fashioned though which was really tasty. This restaurant is located in a less central/commercial area of Denver so it's really easy to park and get seated walking in without a reservation. There was plenty of covered patio seating which was great to enjoy the weather, and the street isn't too loud. Our server was sweet and service was fast, even though we came on a weekend for dinner.

Elevated food and yet a welcoming, casual spot for dinner and/or drinks. I went here for a chill bday dinner with the fam. Here's a little reminder of how kids today are not like us: My 8 yo was not interested in any of the kid's menu offerings and requested for tacos off the regular menu! It was a pork belly and beef birria tacos for him. (Wow. Luckily, he finished every bit of it and was tempted us to order him a 3rd pork belly taco. We refrained and offered up more chips and guac to him.) My younger kid was fine with the quesadilla, but ended up bringing it home because she filled up on the chips and guac, which I have to admit was fantastic and fresh. We loved everything that came out along with the adult beverages. I think my husband's only minor complaint was the portion size of his very delicious chicken mole. Overall, a great spot and we can't wait to come back.

All I can say is, OMG! If you don't like flavor, spices, and delicious Mexican food, then don't go to Ni Tuyo. But if you do, the minute I took my first bite of the molcajete, both my partner and I gave each other the look. Our eyes both lite up impressed by the flavor it had. I didn't want to waste a drop of the salsa or the sauce. This was one of the dishes that I really wish my stomach was bigger so I could eat every bite of it. I have been raving about Ni Tuyo ever since, and have plans to bring my friends and loved ones to try it. Oh and a plus. Service was great!!

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.

Ni Tuyo was a last minute decision to enjoy some happy hour and avoid rush hour! I'm happy that we stopped in to experience this very popular restaurant!I would definitely like to come back to try some different items and the happy hour was enticing enough to draw me back in.My favorite item we tried was the Mariscos Molcajete that we split! It was quite the treat having so much seafood in a rich and delicate white whine sauce! It was a light and airy molcajete and I'm glad we experienced it.I wouldn't order the elote again. I think I was missing a more traditional taste with lime. But, I would be happy to try other appetizers next time.My Moscow mule was beautiful, the margarita was tasty. We all around had a good time, but would love to try different dishes to really drive it home for us.

I give them more than 5 stars!! Blown away! The flavors here are stunning and crave-able! Of course we got some margaritas to start out the evening. Delish! We started with some chips and salsa and definitely there are my favorite chips I've had in Denver thus far. We also got the Elote dip and omg! It comes in like a butter broth and it's insane. Sop that up with some chips. Yum! We shared the NiTuyo Molcajete. This dish is completely out of this world. The broth is dynamite. This is definitely one of those places you want to recommend but you also want to keep secret. That good! Ended the night with Tres Leche cake. We were so stuffed and so happy! I will be a regular here! I also ordered some of their Red Pozole that's on special to take home. Bomb! Like damn so good! Service was on point and such a great vibe all night long!
