Tacos El Comelon - Lake Avenue Inn

Taco lover here - speaking from experience....these tacos are legit! So fresh and yummy. We enjoyed some carne asada, Al pastor, chorizo, and one that I am forgetting the name of (lol) but ALL were amazing. The Al pastor was the crowd favorite in our group. The small town vibe at the bar was awesome. Everyone seemed to be "regulars" and all had a favorite item on the menu. One fella who appeared to know the chef personally was a fan favorite of a "spicy" Philly (not on menu), the bartender couldn't decide on what to order today "because it is all so good" and opted for an impressive looking quesadilla stuffed to the brim with who-knows-what kind of goodness. The atmosphere was dive bar (in a good way) very Cheers-esque with the bartender knowing all the locals' drink and meal preferences when they walked in the door. Service was appropriate for the made-to-order food. Salsa was the just right kind of spicy for this spice loving girl. As far as the bar goes, there are a few pool tables, some high top tables and booths, plus a few dart boards. Says MUST BE 21 to enter, so families likely need to Door Dash - unsure on this point. Overall, yummy yummy and immediately off the N-line train last stop for anyone wanting to check it out and have some drinks on the north side of town!

Excellent Mexican food. Learned about them at Top Taco and have been ordering from them on a pretty regular basis since and have eaten in once at Lake Avenue Inn. There was an issue with my first to-go order through Yelp where the order was populated on Yelp, but not submitted by me and was somehow submitted to the shop. When they called an hour after my order was submitted letting me know my food has been ready, I showed up to pick up my order and they remade it for me, without me really being deserving of it. Everything that I've had from them has been great, but I have a hard time staying away from the Cali burrito smothered in their green chili. The dive bar atmosphere only adds to the comfort food consumption. We'll be back many times I'm sure.

Found this little joint on the way down to Denver. Great outdoor atmosphere, great tacos and drinks. We will definitely be back for more!

Hands-down, best Mexican in Thornton what a hidden gem. They also just got a taco award at a taco competition.

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

Haven't had a meal I didn't enjoy and I'm continually recommending this hidden gem, inside Lake Ave Inn, aka East Lake. The weekly specials are always a new favorite, so we make it a point to try them. If you're not interested in the bar vibes, they make for a great takeout option. Can't go wrong with this one.

I was tired of cooking and looking to grab something to-go for dinner when this place popped up on Yelp. I knew exactly where it was at since it's right down the street from me; decided to give it a try. They have a bunch of photos of their food on their website and a lot of great reviews on DoorDash as well.Essentially, it's a kitchen inside of the Lake Avenue Inn. If you want to grab something to go as I did, the kitchen is straight ahead and to the right when you walk inside.They have a really good variety of stuff on their menu. I normally eat tons of spicy food and thought about getting a burrito, but I just wanted a good burger. They delivered! Really good sized burger, with legit bacon, and a huge side of seasoned fries that were perfectly crispy. It was very filling and I could have easily made two meals from it.I am sure I looked out of place since I was the only one there grabbing something to go and trying to figure it out. I talked to the owner(s) a bit when my food was ready, and the woman told me they had been there for about a year and just happened to add themselves to Yelp earlier today.Looking forward to grabbing some more food there again soon, especially some tacos or a burrito! The bar would be a good place to grab a beer while you wait, though they made my food pretty quickly.

Everything I have eaten here is delicious! The green chili on the burritos is some of the best in town. They also have a fabulous cheese dip if you're in to velvety, flavorful deliciousness!

Excellent tacos, good drinks and prices. Easy parking and atmosphere is like a neighborhood dive bar

Husband found this place on Yelp. You would have never guessed this taco place was inside this bar. Family friendly. Nice people! We are from Los Angeles so we are picky but this place is had carne asada nachos, pinche hamburger and tacos...was all so good. They also have breakfast and smothered burritos! This place is a must!!!!
