Always delicious! Megan rocks, so courteous and understanding with our family. One of our favorites.

fantastic!! Anna was fantastic! so much fun with great food!! they'll be seeing me again!

Great spot found in DTC! We came for happy hour and were seated quickly inside. Great vibes and atmosphere all around! Everyone we came across that worked here were super chill and friendly. I had the sangria (white) which was real good. We shared a chips and queso which were perfect! I had two bang bang shrimp tacos and hubby had the 3 carne asada tacos that came with beans and rice. All tasty and happy hour prices are some of the best around! read more

One thing to note is that they add a 5% "culinary contribution" charge to the bill. I did not see this displayed on the menu or noted beforehand. So just something to keep in mind. We got the 3 taco meal with rice/beans and it was delicious. The appetizer chips and guacamole was good too. Overall, it was good food, good ambiance and I would recommend. The one recommended is to lower the music as it was hard to have a conversation. It was very loud. Also, just make the menu prices higher instead of adding on hidden fees. Most people have "tip fatigue" at this point. Better to just be transparent with pricing. read more

We visited on Friday night and were able to get a reservation a day in advance for our party of 4. While we're currently in a drought it's important to note you have to ask for water instead of automatically being served. Not a terrible thing just a note. Our group got chips and salsa to start off plus the elote, followed by enchiladas, tacos, and a taco salad. The service was relatively quick once we ordered our food. We even got treated to their cookies. If you like mole you'll like the cookies. read more

The service and ambiance are always good at Los Chingones. It's fun to stop by for some tasty salsa and warm corn chips. I had the avocado taco, made gluten-free, so it wasn't deep-fried, but unfortunately the avocado was icy. It was also the same price as the meat tacos, which isn't really fair. I see I last reviewed this location two years ago, and here I am again, still asking for more vegan tacos! There are so many possibilities: cauliflower, mushrooms, roasted veggies, beans, quinoa, or walnut taco "meat." I really do hope they add more vegan options to their menu. read more

To celebrate my last birthday lunch for this year I chose Los Chingones. They were supposed to be having all kinds of fun stuff for Cinco De Mayo but with all the rain and upcoming snow, that was a bust. Nevertheless the restaurant was absolutely packed. We waited about 10 minutes at the front, debating whether to go somewhere else when the friendly hostess noticed us. She took us to a booth by the kitchen but at least we were next to a wall so the noise was only on one side. We were given a small menu with mostly drink specials for the holiday but there were some tacos. We both opted for regular menu items - I had the chicken enchiladas and my friend had the taco salad. Our server was Jo and she was very distracted. As the restaurant emptied out we thought service would be more attentive but no such luck. She even slammed down a carafe of water on our table as she ran by - not even glancing at us. Luckily we were capable of pouring our own water ;) it took just over a half hour to get our food and by that time we were second guessing our decision not to go somewhere else. When we finally got our food it was good. My adobo chicken enchiladas had a delicious slaw on top and just a hint of spice. The smoky sauce was very good. After another 20 minutes we were able to flag down Jo so I could get a box. Then she dropped off a plate with 2 dark colored balls and told us they were peanut butter mole cookies. The flavor was good but it left my fingers very greasy. Another server brought a plate of churros with chocolate sauce and a candle and wished me a happy birthday. The churros were tasty and filled with a little bit of custard. I have been to Los Chingones before and always had a great experience. I would go back but not on Cinco de Mayo. read more

GREAT happy hour! Discounted tacos, chips & dip, + drink specials. It's a kickback vibe with a nice outdoor patio. 10/10 recommend the queso, chicken tacos, & churros. Parking in the DTC can be frustrating but pro hack: the parking garage down the street has 3 hour free parking. read more

Food was great. Smaller portions so definitely get starters if you're hungry. I did 3 tacos with rice and beans and chips and salsa. We got margaritas too and they were pretty good. The server was so sweet and made it a great experience. read more

Great spot for happy hour in the area, and hubby and I could get all the yummy tacos GF with corn tortillas. We did ourselves in with the Chilaquiles oh-so-good and messy. Nice having the outdoor seating. Kait was wonderful! read more

Updating my review. I've since been to this restaurant twice and each time the food has blown me away. The queso, fish taco, and house marg are going to be my new go-tos. Happy hour deals are incredible and the staff has since been kind and accommodating with helpful menu suggestions. The ambiance is a lively vibe, but still a very loud atmosphere you need to be aware of if you're sensitive to this kind of thing. Not great for a first or second date because it's hard to talk, but perfect for a longtime partner date, friend date, or a happy hour stop before dinner. Patrick the manager was helpful in resolving any issue and I was able to bring a friend to try more new things. Will keep coming back now that I've had these new experiences! read more

We came for happy hour. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. I ordered the skinny marg which was delicious. My friend ordered spicy marg in carafe but it was too sour to our liking. We ordered tacos to share which was delicious. We also had queso, salsa and guacamole. It was great that they also refilled our chips. The music was vibey with great music and I loved that this area has free parking off the first 3 hours in the parking garage. read more

What the heck has happened to some of the awesome restaurants after covid? Has anyone noticed that they now lack quality and good service? I realize many things have changed after Covid, but too bad this place changed for the worse. The vibe of this place is okay; the music they had the day I went was annoyingly loud. Food is mehhhh. We had chips and salsa; salsa was tasty, but the downside was that they charge for chips and salsa. The tacos were cold and greasy and tasted like leftovers. The 3 pieces of shrimp okay, but the other two were not so good. There was so much grease that the tortilla fell apart; it was hard to eat. After eating here, I got a horrible stomach ache and got sick. Overpriced for what you get, from beer to food. Not even close to authentic Mexican or tex mex. Service was very good, however! We won't be returning, and I don't recommend this place. read more

Good food and good service. Me and my friend had the pork ramen and it was perfect on a cold day! I like this restaurant, but be aware of the hidden charges. I know more restaurants are doing this but it's dishonest. They are "committed" to not raise menu prices, but all checks are charged a service fee to pay back of house staff. So rather than putting it upfront in the prices, they put it in tiny print on the back. Remember, unless you're paying attention, you'll likely then tip your server off of this extra fee. My check had a EAGS charge- which I read is "employee action group". I don't know if this is the same as the back of house service fee. I just wish restaurants would be upfront rather than hiding this. It is a tip for back go house, which I'm cool with, they need more money, but I want to know fully what I am getting into. read more

Kait is always super sweet and attentive will def be back to see her again. Thank you for a wonderful experience as always :))

My girlfriends and I went o celebrate birthdays in the group and we had the BEST time!! We started with the margarita flights and tried all the salsas they had (HIGHLY RECOOMEND THE ROJO) and got the elotes queso! Then we got taco on tacos on tacos!! The variety was great ALL of the margs were OUTSTANDING! such a cute venue! A little hipsterish, eclectic and fun! I will say the music was loud but so are we so we didn't mind! read more

I had the Ramen and it was probably the tastiest dish I've tried anywhere in Denver in the last few years! Who knew you could get Mexican Ramen? My dad had the enchiladas and loved them as well. The ambience is light and festive, drinks and entrees very reasonable. We should have ordered churros but were too full. Next time! This is also a family friendly place and the service is excellent. read more

Food was mediocre, server was not the friendliest and I am disgusted that we were charged $4.50 for two very small bowls of salsa. We didn't even order the salsa. The server did take it off our bill, but didn't like the surprise charge for something we didn't even ask for. The menu could be a little more interesting and offer more. Not my favorite, but now we know! read more

Excellent experience while doing a work happy hour on Thursday afternoon! The staff were very accommodating and graciously welcomed a group of twelve of us. Not every establishment in the DTC is as welcoming for happy hour groups or place restrictive conditions on large groups. Very grateful for the hospitality! Great happy hour menu offered with both drinks and snacks, and good value! Personally, I enjoy the cocktail of the day (a cucumber and cilantro margarita), the T and T margarita, chips and guac, and the two tacos off the happy hour menu. I really loved the drinks- T and T was my favorite- a sweet, simple tang flavored margarita. Also very pleased with the guac and chips- perfectly fresh and crispy chips, rich flavored guac with a bit of a spicy kick! Tacos (ordered chicken) were also great! Also- want to mention I have enjoyed the enchiladas entree at other visits to Los Chingones- delicious! Service was on point, friendly, and attentive- kept track of our group's orders for individual payment with no mix ups. The bar high top dining area was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Great spot for a casual yet trendy happy hour or dinner! read more

Great service, yummy food and atmosphere is great. Great location and happy hour deals!

Great margs, great guac, friendly service, dog friendly on the patio, delicious birria tacos, and shrimp tacos. Definitely recommend.

Birria taco was amazing, the broth was somewhat bland and lacking flavor. The Al Pastor had good flavor. Bean and rice were simple but tasty. Service was quick, music was a bit load, everything was clean read more

Los Chingones is a great option in a wonderful little downtown area in DTC. We have been here a few times and have been pleased every time. I will say we have sat on the patio every visit in part because the music is too loud in the restaurant for my taste. If you suffer from poor hearing you may find it difficult to carry on a conversation inside the restaurant. The patio however is fine. Our service has always been very good and every server we have had has been super attentive and polite. The food is very good! Some tacos are better than others based on personal taste, but they have great options to choose from (the Birria are my favorite) Also the Elote queso dip is incredibly good! The price is wonderful for what you receive as well. My only criticism is they have a very limited non-alcoholic drink selection. TL:DR - great food, good service, loud, limited non-alcoholic drink options read more

I went to Los Chingones when it first opened in RiNo. I hadn't made it to this one but the result is the same - excellent tacos, fun atmosphere, good service. The Brussels Sprouts and Guac were also good options for appetizers. read more

Los Chingones has an excellent happy hour from 3:00-5:30pm with a great selection of margaritas and bites. The place is busy during this time. Bartenders also double as servers for the bar area so it can take a bit to get your order. Be ready to order all you need to get your order in before HH is up. My first margarita had too much ice but the second one was just right. I loved the 80s rock anthems playing overhead. It definitely added to the fun vibe. read more

Los Chingones - DTC - Pastor tacos and duck confit - Tacos Near Me - Denver, Colorado

We visited Los Chingones for lunch at the end of a conference. I absolutely love the decoration in this place. The sign outside {badass Mexican} is adorable. We were seated immediately and our server was very friendly when giving us recommendations and helping us learn what things were. We started with a regular guacamole. It was balanced and had a good kick. I ordered a couple tacos, one pastor and one duck confit, and an elote. The pastor taco was great, but the duck confit was unlike anything I'd ever eaten. It was juicy and flavorful, and the mustard and hoisin worked beautifully together. The crispy onions were the perfect touch of crunch and didn't get soggy at all. The corn was also delicious. Everything that came to our table tasted super fresh. I'd absolutely eat here regularly if I lived in the area. read more

Ambiance lively. But Mexican food could be better and seemed over priced for the portion sizes. Service was good.

Came back to Los Chingones to give their tacos and food another try. My partner had the Mexican pizza and 1. That thing is huge and 2. That thing is delicious! The Mexican pizza is such a good option when you want more food than the tacos and at a really reasonable price. I also ordered the duck confit taco and the paleo taco. As I've said before in my reviews, the paleo taco is amazing. The crispy tofu is so good and the flavors added are very good. I personally was a bit disappointed by the duck confit, it was a bit drier than I hoped for. The wait staff noticed and asked about my thoughts and even removed it from our bill which I thought was so kind and not necessary. I really appreciate the team at Los chingones and I will be back to have more paleo tacos in the future! read more

I recently went to Los Chingones & our waiter Chris was great with great service ! This place has a great atmosphere and food, especially the tacos and the drinks were great. The ambiance was cozy yet modern, making it a perfect spot for a night out. Definitely recommend and can't wait to come again read more

Oh.my.goooodnesssss! Mexican food can be such a gut bomb...being Mexican, it's something I CRAVE but rarely eat. This, my friends, is not that heavy, lard-laden, pants putting you in a vice grip kind of place. This is a place of watermelon hibiscus margaritas, layered flavors that wink at Mexican food but offer something truly special. I had the taquitos and elote (corn), our table had tacos (pork,chicken and beef) that were perfect size and deeply flavored, also enjoyed a quesadilla that was expertly crisped and full of melty cheese and chicken. Their salsas are bomb-the chipotle pineapple delivered sweet heat that was unexpectedly outstanding. Our server was on point with her suggestions and Inso wish I would have gotten her name. I could literally go back right now and eat it again -that-good!!!!! read more

If you like cilantro then this place is for you. My guest had 3 tacos with beans and rice. She didn't know there was going to be cilantro in her dish. The waiter was kind and took the dish back. I think they just picked out the cilantro and brought it back since there was still some on it after. I ordered the roasted Brussels Sprouts and that too had quite a bit of cilantro. The sprouts dish was quite generous. Our waiter was OK, with little check in, never got asked if we wanted refills on our drinks. Also, no coffee. The place looks fun, the music was loud. Maybe a good place for happy hour? read more

Here on a conference. Come to this restaurant with my GF. Waiter seems to be having a bad day from the moment we sat down. Tried small talk and he acted like he never even heard me talking. I ordered a beer while my GF looked through cocktail menu. When ordering, he asked us both for ID. I presented mine, she forgot hers at the hotel. We showed him digital version of drivers license, passport, and work ID. I am 51 and she is 42. Neither could even possibly pass for 30. Not even close. I asked for bill and paid for beer, which I did not even taste. Judgment and discretion is out the window. read more

Met some friends here mid December for some dinner. This is one of a few location (also has a couple different restaurants under this restaurant group). We were sat immediately and greeted by our server. She was very kind and offered some popular menu items. We started with the house guac (was more on the creamy side-- I prefer more chunky guac)-- but, had some nice flavor. For dinner we all got 3 tacos plates. I got Birria Taco, Baja Fish Taco, Bang Bang Crispy Shrimp Taco. The shrimp was probably my favorite but all freshly made with amazing flavors. The vibe is very chill, tasty food and great service. Definitely recommend and will be back. read more

Service was great. Prompt and Friendly. The restaurant was clean, simple decor, with a nice outdoor space Despite having to pay for the chips and salsa, because I'm a salsa fan, I ordered the rooster and tomatillo. They were both a bit watered down. The roaster had decent smokey flavor but the tomatillo was rather plain. Salsa is one of the driving forces behind me returning to a place and that alone won't be a reason to bring me back. Just mediocre I got the three taco plate. The beans and rice had good flavor for the simple sides they were. The birria and pastor were very good, the carne asada was dry and flavorless. $5 happy hour margarita was spot on I'd try someplace new first, returning as a last resort read more
