I've been to many Mexican restaurants in Denver, and this family-run hidden jewel may be the best. Every dish is tasty, fresh, well presented, and never heavy or greasy. Service is friendly and attentive, and, importantly, the whole restaurant is always clean and well cared-for. And they have a fine outdoor patio, perfect for a delicious plate of tamales on a summer's eve. What could be better? Prices are low ($20-25 will get you a couple of supper entrees, a couple of drinks from the bar, and tax and tip). A fine neighborhood spot, and even worth a drive across town.
Pros: Great Mexican food--some of the best in Denver. Nice outdoor patio.
Cons: Romantic it ain't. Standard, clean, very pleasant neighborhood Mexican.
