If you can get by on appetizers, Zorba's offers superb hummus and falafel dishes. I go for the Kolokithia (zucchini slices with tzatziki) and if I'm feeling adventurous, I get the Macaronada as well (Greek-style macaroni), but usually I just stick to the appetizers. Zorba's serves Mexican as well; if that's what you're hankering after, leave it for another joiint. This is Colorado, after all. restaurant restaurant congress_park greek mexican 39.7351570129 -104.9559860229 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 17:21:05 +0200 http://tupalo.com/spot/1335-chef-zorbas-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/5894-illegal-petes-denver-co-usa Mike restaurant vegetarian-options tex-mex quesadillas nachos burritos mexican tacos 39.750751 -104.999426 Tue, 11 Mar 2008 09:02:14 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/5894-illegal-petes-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/1901-santiagos-denver-co-usa suz I'd like to consider myself somewhat of a breakfast burrito connoisseur. I've tried all kinds of breakfast burritos from all types of joints all around town. And I can tell you that a Santiago's BB is the way to go. First of all, they're fast, friendly and a local chain (numerous locations around town). Second of all, the tasty burritos are 2 bucks each. Lastly, order it "half 'n' half". Which means half hot, half mild. Perfecto. I'd love to elaborate on the rest of their menu but honestly, I haven't gotten past breakfast. If you're going to order a bunch, call and give them a heads up or you'll be waiting awhile. Two things to keep in mind: They aren't open on Sundays (for now) and cash is king. restaurant burritos, mexican, breakfast fast 39.7014007568 -104.9929962158 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 05:15:31 +0200 http://tupalo.com/spot/1901-santiagos-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/1349-bennys-denver-co-usa Raj R. In Missoula we had the best Tacos at Taco Del Sol. (Their fish tacos were the best). After having moved to Denver, I have been looking for a taco shop high and low. And when I came across an article that rated Benny's and Taco Del Sol as the best in the Rocky Mountains, I had to visit. Havent tried the fish taco yet, but it wasnt bad. The place is very busy almost all the time. The food is good (but not great). Its close to the place I live - so I will definetly visit more often. (Atleast to try their fish tacos) restaurant mexican capitol_hill mexican 39.7272987366 -104.983001709 Tue, 17 Jul 2007 15:35:22 +0200 http://tupalo.com/spot/1349-bennys-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/1346-panaderia-mexico-denver-co-usa c The default stop for my coworkers and myself, if we haven't brought lunches. Spanish only, service sometimes slow and dubious, but products, prices, and ambience as though you were in a small village. cafe bakery mexican barnum budget nonpretentious 39.7182006836 -105.0350036621 Mon, 30 Apr 2007 06:30:19 +0200 http://tupalo.com/spot/1346-panaderia-mexico-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/908-la-cocinita-denver-co-usa c Another low-key, neighborhood Mexican resto on the northwestern edges of Denver. When I lived in this neighborhood, I practically lived off of the cheesy burritos, topped with cubed tomatoes and dashes of lettuce (around $3), but I've since found concoctions that my taste buds prefer. Good chips, though. restaurant mexican nonpretentious sloan_lake 39.7584991455 -105.0500030518 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 01:15:24 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/908-la-cocinita-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/875-rosa-linda-denver-co-usa c restaurant casual friendly mexican nonpretentious highland 39.7631988525 -105.0110015869 Thu, 08 Mar 2007 12:28:44 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/875-rosa-linda-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/800-taqueria-patzcuaro-denver-co-usa c For me, it starts with the service: it's like eating at a (nice) relative's house in the countryside and NEVER wanting to leave. This relative also happens to be a good cook. You relax in one of the wooden booths, gazing at various photographic anecdotes of Mexican history, grabbing some fresh, homemade chips here and there. Even when the restaurant is busy, your enchiladas rojas or tacos albanil come out almost as soon as you ordered, sometimes served by the super friendly owner himself, or one of the other equally welcoming family members. So cozy, you just might end up eating all your meals here. restaurant friendly mexican nonpretentious casual highland mexican 39.7620010376 -105.0189971924 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 15:35:29 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/800-taqueria-patzcuaro-denver-co-usa http://tupalo.com/spot/799-el-taco-de-mexico-denver-co-usa c With accolades for its authenticity, El Taco offers a space where everyone--and I mean, EVERYONE, no matter the budget--rubs elbows at any time of the day, whether chomping down on tacos, chili rellenos, or my personal fave, huevos rancheros. Being a vegetarian, I have no desire to try the meaty selections, but others have attested to their scrumptious factor. Forget Chipotle/Qdoba/etc, this is the place to be, especially if you just want to bathe in their delicious green chili. Be forewarned: as this place is SUPER popular, there might be queue for a table (or the counter), but the wait will be WELL WORTH it. restaurant casual mexican budget lincoln_park 39.7276000977 -104.9990005493 Tue, 06 Mar 2007 15:26:52 +0100 http://tupalo.com/spot/799-el-taco-de-mexico-denver-co-usa
