    Baja Burrito with carne asada and smothered in green chili
    Sheryl S.

    OMG.. what a little gem, who knew (okay, my friends knew). This little local establishment is in a tiny strip center off 9th and Jersey. The staff was so friendly and a huge shout out to Bailey our server (5 gold stars for her). We meet for a quick bit on Wednesday night also in time for Happy Hour. Wednesday is al Prime Rib special night. 2 set of friend share a large portion with mashed taters and green beans. I was at a Baja bistro and thought it best to try a Mexican item. I am a sucker for anything smothered. So I ordered the burrito with rice and beans queso cheddar cheese, and carne asada. A huge flour tortilla filled with meat, Sautee onions, peppers, mushrooms and spinach topped with shredded lettuce, dice tomato & sour cream and of course SMOTHERED in house made green chili. OMG delish. Oh, and it come with a side of chips... yeah, you read that right a side of potato chips. Our server let us upgrade to French fries in a large basket with (as my grandson says) dip (yep ketchup). In the neighborhood, or even close... I highly recommend Bertha's and ask for my new friend Bailey!

    Neighborhood place with a large brunch menu. Service and food were slow but once it came, it was good. Not incredibly large portions but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Nothing special in the ambiance but we could get a table immediate on a weekend prime time.

    Had a very enjoyable experience at Bertha's! Food was excellent and served quickly. I had the adult Mac & cheese and would highly recommend! The staff was very friendly and attentive. It is a laid back local vibe. Will definitely be back.

    I saw this place a few months ago going to a Yelp Elite Event. They are on the south end of a small strip mall in the Montclair neighborhood. They have a small bar which almost every seat was occupied on Friday at 3pm. 1 large room and a smaller one. A large shaded patio facing west. Very large menu with appetizers, soups & salads, burgers & sammies, tacos, entrees and daily specials. A table menu sign had drinks and desserts. No QR codes. The various flat-screen t.v's were showing sports, CNN and TNT movies without captions or sound. I started with freshly brewed iced tea. Nice and strong. In fact, I had 3 glasses with lunch. I chose the Don Fuego cheeseburger with pepperjack cheese, roasted poblanos, red bell pepper, sliced jalapeños, sliced onions with a chipotle aioli & Tabasco sauce. I got the beer battered Onion Rings as my side. I used the sauce to dip the onion rings into since the burger toppings already gave alot of heat. I was served by Autumn P. She was quick & pleasant. There was a sign on the check-in podium that they prefer cash over cards, but Autumn said it was not an issue. So Bertha's is basically a local diner with a wide selection. When I left at 415pm, they were filling up.

    The stellar reviews brought my husband and I along with 3 friends into Bertha's Baja Bistro on a Sunday morning for brunch. The fantastic food and service will easily bring me back next time I am in the area. All 5 of us enjoyed our food. I couldn't decide between a sweet or savory option, so the fact that pancakes come as a side option (along with toast, potatoes, fruit, sausage or bacon) made the ordering process that much easier. I went with the Huevos Rancheros along with a side of the blueberry pancakes. Everything was so good. I completely devoured my food with no morsel left in sight! Others in my group went with the Breakfast Burrito and the Bertha's Benedict. We all left fully satiated.

    Hi Bertha's I noticed that on Yelp the spelling of Bertha's Baja Bistro is correct but your sign is Berthas Baha Bistro? We are excited to come in and try the food.

    The sign was misspell but got corrected last week. I'm a neighbor and love this place! Great made from scratch food and amazing and friendly staff!

The staff is always very friendly and it's never a long wait for the delicious meal to be delivered to your table! The prices are reasonable so that's great too!

That should have given me a clue as to the heat temperature! I couldn't finish my meal as it was too spicy for me. I know I don't tolerate heat very well, so just offering this as a warning to others that might be in the same boat. Luckily they offered sopapillas and honey for dessert. The sweetness of the honey helped to soothe the sting. This location is in a strip mall and they have done a very nice job of decorating it. It looks clean and well maintained. You will need to order at the counter and then they will bring your meal out to your table. It seems to make sense that you would offer meals for all people, even ones like me that cannot manage the spice. I have to give them a lower rating only due to the fact that I know I won't be able to go back since they don't have a non-spicy option for their meals.

    What a wonderful experience. I had a near 10 hour layover so decided to checkout some highly…read morerecommended spots and this was at the top of the list. Made a reservation for 9 pm but got into town around 3:30 and they made sure to get me a table right away which was so kind of them and something they did NOT have to do. Kelsey was my server and she was so beautiful both inside and out. Very warm, welcoming and gave me great recommendations that were both personal for her but also worked with me when I wasn't sure about what to get after she recommended a few things. The food....was...SENSATIONAL. The Tostada De Toro I think every person needs to try once in their life. I feel like for whatever reason Mexican seafood is still underrated to the average person as I mentioned to Kelsey. They told me I could eat it open face or use a fork and knife so I tried it both ways starting with the first couple of bites open face. To be honest you could eat this upside down in a blizzard and it would be great, it was that damn good! The people sitting next to me giggled because I looked like I was having a foodgasm from my reaction to every bite. Then the Aguachile De Erizo had me licking my lips and then eventually drinking the "broth" (hope that's the right term) to the last drop with Kelsey's full approval hahahaha. I had never tried Uni before and what a great introduction it was. I kept finding pieces of scallops and uni in my mouth after and it was such a pleasant surprise. The Non-Alcoholic Colada I actually had first and it made be feel like I was on a beach somewhere. Delicious! The only downside to the meal was that I had to walk through the city after I left so I couldn't keep eating more which I really wanted to. But that's a blessing in disguise because I'm so excited to come back and try even more dishes that I didn't get to and I immediately recommended it to friends who live in Denver but were out of town and couldn't join me when I was there. Again cannot say enough about the service and the atmosphere which was so sexy. It felt both relaxed and accessible while still feeling upscale. (I mean I walked in with a backpack and a sleeveless shirt and didn't feel out of place or too dressed down at all. And if I was the staff didn't make me feel this whatsoever). Finally one more shoutout to the entire team for making it a great experience and make sure to ask for Kelsey as your server she's one in a million! PS my forgetful self forgot my wallet at the table and Kelsey came running out to bring it to me with a laugh and a smile. So somehow even after my meal they were still finding a way to be the best!

Could eat the whole thing myself carne - this was essentially beef tartare - SO GOOD- Loved the chile sauce kampachi crudo - very fresh and tasty! burrita - this was porkbelly burrito- highly recommend!! I dont usually love burritos but this was a hit - great mole! pollo - this was okay, I think it just needed a bit more flavor but was still good We were pretty stuffed but we also had lunch around 12 and our reservation was at 4 lol Would come back if I was ever in denver!!!

There are plenty of Mexican restaurants to choose from, but finding one that genuinely reflects our Mexican roots is much harder. As a Mexican from California, I've always believed California sets a very high standard when it comes to Mexican cuisine. This time, however, El Colima proved that Colorado absolutely has a place serving real, authentic Mexican food. The portions were generous and satisfying, the ingredients were fresh, and every dish was full of flavor. You can tell they take pride in both the quality of their food and the overall dining experience. The service was outstanding, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations. Thank you, El Colima Mexican Food, for such an amazing experience. I look forward to visiting again the next time I'm in Denver!

Both were superb 10/10 and we ended up ordering more tacos. We came with children and we were pleasantly surprised to see a restaurant that had more than just 2 high chairs which ended up accommodating more people who came with little ones z the kids menu has a good variety as well and the portions were great! We ended up getting the kids quesadilla and added ground beef to it and they were delicious! I'm so glad this place is so close to us and we are excited to try many more items from their menu, especially their guacamole which looked for good! They're margaritas are also really good, strong but not too strong with good flavor and not overly sweet! Can't wait to go back!

By now, average foodies have experienced what Culinary Dropout is all about and yet I humbly and honestly admit the fact that I was a virgin until I for the first time experienced it today on July 16, 2026. In a way, it was like celebrating a super belated birthday of someone I know. This Denver location is rightfully located in this one of the newly developed residential areas that used to be a desert (lol!!) With a blink of an eye, all sorts of businesses popped up within the last 5-10 years or so. First and foremost, what a spacious restaurant this is! Very modern with some casual sense but upscale at the same time. All 5 of us were taken all the way back to the u-shaped booths that is at the "Converse sneaker" decorated wall near the restrooms. Our waiter was John. His impeccable friendliness with expert-level server skills was quite notable. His timeliness in giving us a moment or two so we could decide what to drink/eat, checking back on us to see how everything was tasting etc. was almost AI-driven accuracy. For food and drinks, I am just going to speak just for myself. I got... -Vida Verdita which is a non-alcoholic cocktail that has a good amount of kick in it with pineapple with green appearance and -Roasted Salmon; the portion is a bit small and yet overall it tasted good with perfect medium-ness. Vida Verdita is one of the best NA drinks I've ever had in a while. This minimal consequence beverage is $9 as of mid-July 2026. If you want to steer clear of being drunk but want some energized push to get your night going then I highly recommend this NA drink. Roasted Salmon, on the other hand, was lacking exceptional quality for the price of $31. It wasn't bad as it was prepared in the perfect medium texture but I found it a bit boring so if spending $30+ on a mediocre plate is your pet peeve, then this "run of the mill" dish should be avoided. I feel that they should add more ingredients such as broccolini (yes, something green (not just some cilantro leaves) needs to be added to the plate.) In conclusion...did I walk away being super impressed after dining at Culinary Dropout Denver tonight? No, not really. And yet I wasn't disappointed either. Overall, my experience tonight sits somewhere between 3.5 and 4 star level. It was an occasion for our monthly "girls' get-together" and it's my understanding that we will meet at this place next month again. I will thus explore more on the menu by trying something different.
