Taco Uprising

We went on Friday night during happy hour, and the drinks were great. The chips and salsa were good, and the tacos we tried were all on point. Fun casual vibe and may be my new go-to happy spot.

Interior is cool. Service is very good. I did like the chips, salsa & queso. My pollo verde taco was . I wasn't wild about the birria taco and I love me some birria. $6 taco's is the new expected price for fancy smancy tacos but, $6 for a Pacifico beer? Hell no. I'll be back to try more food for sure. My rating may change as well. I do recommend this place.

Cute taco place in Five Points. Plenty of free on street parking after 6pm. Otherwise 2hr parking. The have 4 soft tacos with protein and 3 vegan tacos. All served on corn tortillas, but their house-made flour tortillas for $0.15 extra are better. They have the usual chips with either salsa, guacamole or queso or get all three. I got their fried plantains with red onion, queso fresca and crema. Yummy sweet plantains. I tried their house mrgarita, but it was weak. I switched to the Popeye's Poblano and substituted Ojo mezcal for the tequila. A much better drink. Smoky and spicy. I got the Birria with consomme and the Pollo Verde simmered in salsa verde. Both good. For dessert, I got a churro cookie with vanilla ice cream. I finished with a Margarita Verano made with aperol & tequila. Very nice. They are open daily Tues-Sat 9am-2pm for breakfast and lunch, then reopen at 430pm till 8pm most days. Happy Hour is 430pm-630pm weekdays. They have soft drinks and a mocktail. Most margaritas can be made alcohol free. Note, no one asked if I wanted salted or sugared rims. Jose B took my order. He recommended the flour tortillas. Normally when come in, you order at the counter, then find a table. I sat at the bar where you can order after sitting. They have a sidewalk takeout window. They charge a 5% fee for the Greener Good sustainable practices. They are closed Sunday. Reasonable prices, even better on happy hour.

Great find for a taco spot! Definitely will be one of our regulars. Gave elevated street style, authentic Mexican. Service was great, they kept checking on us and making sure we had everything. Food tasted authentic and delicious. Good prices. Good ambiance with great hispanic music.

Super cute, relatively new restaurant in Five Points! The high turnover and competitive nature of doing business in this area feels intense, but it's nice being able to support local additions. The wait staff when I visited were clearly still learning processes, but everyone was determined to provide a positive customer service experience. It was kind of adorable.I got two tacos, one of which was birria. Drank a few spicy margaritas, too. Everything was tasty! Love the décor and overall vibe. I want to come back again and try more items on their menu. They're still figuring it out as a business, and I hope they end up doing well! Of course make sure to allot plenty of time to find parking in this busy neighborhood.

Modern restaurant. Cocktails are fresh. Tacos are 7/10, gonna enjoy more if tortillas were thinner.

I'm super jealous that everyone from the area gets to have these tacos all the time. Everything was absolutely incredible, packed with so much flavor and quality. I can't even tell you what I liked most because everything was the bomb! The service was top notch, super friendly and helpful and made sure my needs were met. It's got that legit taco joint feeling to it. It's well lit and clean inside so it's a picture takers dream.

We had such an amazing experience here on Friday night. We walked over from our Airbnb a little bit later in the evening, around 9ish and were able to be seated right away. There's a bar inside and some tables as well. The service was quick and super friendly. They have breakfast, lunch, and dinner and we were so sad we weren't able to make it back for their breakfast, because the menu looked so delicious. All of their menus had plenty of wonderful vegan and vegetarian options on them, which made me so happy.Green Mule Cocktail: This was super light and refreshing. I get nervous ordering drinks with ginger in them, because sometimes the ginger can be overpowering, but this was perfect. It was a perfect and refreshing summer drink.Chips + Queso: Chips were great and perfectly salted, and the queso was wonderful. If you're on the fence about getting queso like we were, just get it :)Senor Potato Taco: DELICIOUS! Oh my goodness. The house made corn tortillas were just delicious. So much flavor, I could've eaten multiple.El Jardinero: Equally delicious and full of flavor. It came with cheese, sauteed mushrooms, corn, picked onions, crema, and salsa verde.Churro Cookie: GET IT! Deliciously gooey and warm, topped with vanilla ice cream and cinnamon dust. It was amazing. We devoured it in second.The house made tortillas stole the show here. We had the opportunity to chat with the owner for a little bit as he was making his way around the tables, and we got to hear the story of how they started. Thank you for the incredible service and delicious food!This place just opened 6 weeks ago, and I can't wait to watch them thrive from afar. We will definitely be coming back the next time we're in town!

This is such welcome addition to Five Points! They have the means to draw customers in with their amazing tacos and drinks. The staff is great. Met one of the owners Sam. He's there everyday to personally man the kitchen and cook up some delicious birrias which apparently everybody loves!!I've tried all their tacos and they're one of best in Denver! Stop by and try them! Their open air design includes the bar! Hazel makes great cocktails!! My fave was the Greenmile and El Sicario! They do have housemade flour tortillas as an option. Other options include vegetarian, vegan, GF, and spicy. Even their Vegan tacos are amazing!!If you go try their queso and fresh guac. It's yummy!

Ok, there are as many taco spots in denver as pizza places in NY, but a few stand out. Taco uprising is different. Their tacos are different from everything else out there. The only way I can explain it is they are very "clean" tacos. I had the chicken taco and a potato taco. The potato one was very cool! It was almost like eating a baked potato! The chicken taco was also delicious as was the salsas. The clean style tacos echo the cleanliness of the place. it's about the cleanest restaurant I've ever seen. You need to try it to understand. Try it out, you won't be disappointed!
