Best Mexican food in Denver?
- Thread starter McGRP01
- Start date
There's a few, depends on what you like. Here's what I dig...
Benny's (Pretty Americanized but friggin' tasty... 7th and Grant)
El Taco de Mexico (Like nothing else I've ever tried, and amazing. 7th and Santa Fe)
Little Anita's (New Mexican style, there's one on Colorado and one on 13th and Kalamath)
Tacos Junior (Crazy good taqueria style, Federal and Jewell, bright green and yellow place can't miss it)
Senor Burrito's (Not bad Mexican, quick style, 1st and Broadway)
Chubby's (Fast and sloppy gut bomb style, super hot green chile and drowned in cheese if that's how you like it, a Denver institution. Lots of locations, I prefer the one on 38th)
That's all I can think of right now, I'll add more if I think of any later. What are you in D-Town for?

I'll be staying near the Fillmore Aud., at the Ramada. I'm actually flying in on Monday and staying with a friend in Longmont Mon. and Tues.. We're seeing a concert at the Fillmore on Halloween and decided to get a room in the city rather than try to drive back to Longmont after the show...
D'oh! I can't believe I forgot Jack n' Grill on Federal and 26th! New Mexican style frikkin awesomeness! Was there Friday night, had the Carne Adovada plate with a couple of fried eggs added on top... SO delicious!
Evan, you're all over it! I have 6 days until I leave...gotta try at least one!
Well then... El Taco de Mexico and Jack n' Grill are probably at the top of your list...
WARNING: Do NOT get the rellenos at JnG if you don't like cheese-filled chiles wrapped in a scrambled egg.

Good Mexican food in Denver........... Now that's funny.
Why? Because the Mexicans that come here don't cook as well as the ones who go to California?
Dude, there may not be as many places as Cali but there is without a quality Mexican in Colo

That's right, there are no quality Mexicans in CO, just CA
Whe send all the defective ones to CO. 
I'll bet Brian has never eaten any Mexican/New Mexican food in the Denver area. 
I have, but the last time I was in Denver it was in 1992. I'm always on a quest for good Mexican food.I'll bet Brian has never eaten any Mexican/New Mexican food in the Denver area.
I missed out on the Mexican in Denver and opted for burgers at the City Grille instead!!! Sooooo good!!! 
And if you're in there and see Julie behind the bar ( ) tell her the crazy NY'er says hello!

chipotle.
Now that I'm "stuck" in Wyoming a Chipotle burrito sounds mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
El Taco De Mexico, all day every day.
nicknamed Brain Tacos, as they used to offer brains as a filling in either tacos or burritos. after mad cow, no more brains. but chicken, lots of chicken, and cheeksmeat as well.
GOTTA get at least one taco a la carte, but you also GOTTA try the burrito as well.
super duper mega turbo amazing, and i am assuming authentic.
cash only at Brain Tacos. 7th and Santa Fe, everyone should try it once.

I have to say for cheap Mexican eats, El Taco de Mexico did not disappoint. I got their relleno burrito and it didn't suck. Next time I'm gonna go for the tongue or cheeksmeat burrito. 
Little Anita's ain't too far away.
