    Cojita, barbacoa, and carnita tacos
    Kathryn O.

    So the food is great. We started out with guacamole and chips. I don't particularly like guacamole but this was fantastic. Lots of flavor and fresh, warm chips. The tacos were very flavorful. I had cojita, barbacoa and carnitas. They were all delightfully spicy. I liked the cojita the best. Service was friendly and attentive despite how busy they were. My only complaint was that the bathroom could have used some attention and the floor was sticky. Also, a note for people with sensory issues: this place is LOUD. The acoustics are such that the music is intense and it's very hard to hear. It's not a big deal for me, but I have family members I can't bring because they wouldn't be able to take the noise.

    Great and fun spot for a group on taco Tuesday (and great deals)! It gets pretty busy, so definitely make a reservation before coming. They have nice outdoor seating for good days. I loved the Korean BBQ and Carnitas, but would probably try something other than the Baja Fish next time. Their chips are also really good.

    Tacos for the table

    T/aco is a popular casual taqueria in Boulder, especially on Taco Tuesday. I'd heard of their strong margaritas and yes, they deliver! We went recently with another couple on a Tuesday night. The place was packed, with a 30-minute wait and no space to hang out. Unfortunately, you can't order a drink while waiting, since alcoholic beverages aren't allowed on the sidewalk. I get that it's a rule they can't control, but still, it's too bad. The space is fairly small and very loud, not ideal for conversation, but I suppose you don't go there to philosophize. The hostess and our server were very friendly, despite the hectic night. The house marg is too sweet for me but my husband loves it that way; the coin is perfect, and definitely strong! We started with a salsa trio, which was very good. The guac could have used a little less salt and more spice, but it was still satisfying. The tacos are yummy and generously filled, and the Taco Tuesday price can't be beat. They are served on a tray for the entire table, which looks cool but makes it a bit tricky to figure out which is which, especially when it's so loud you can't hear the waiter. Overall, we had a great time, and would definitely go back!

    Salsa trio & queso

    This place was delicious! Our server was amazing and the food was so tasty. Loved all of the salsas and the queso was one of the best we've had. I've never had a spaghetti squash taco before and it sounded strange but it was so good. Will definitely be visiting again in the future!

    Decent restaurant with really good taco Tuesday prices. I had the Buffalo chicken, Barbacoa, and cheese with steak. The chicken and Barbacoa was dry. The chicken one was interesting and had a pretty good spice to it. The cheese with added steak was probably the best but I wish the cheese was crunchy for a different texture since their tortillas were super flimsy and not great. The chips and Queso was pretty good, the Queso texture was a bit too thick and seized up even though it was still hot. Service was ok, they were super busy though. Also it was pretty loud inside, we needed to basically yell for a lot of the night.

    Sanitas is a SPOT in Boulder, for sure…read more It has a superb outdoor deck and patio with a mountain view (double bonus). It makes their already crisp and refreshing beer go down extra smoother (triple bonus). To top that, there's a McDevitt Taco Supply slinging out bites (quadruple bonus). And... of course... thanks to their kind staff and cool vibe, dogs and babies are encouraged to come hang with their drinking parents (quintuple bonus). With all these bonuses, you gotta check it out ASAP! Or if you're me, you gotta go back AGAIN. :D

    Sanitas is a phenomenal brewery in Boulder boasting one of the most impressive outdoor spaces in…read morethe area. They're doing so many things right here. It's become one of my favorite breweries to visit! It's one of the places that has such a large outdoor beer garden that it really doesn't matter if the beer is good or not. Turns out they make very good beer! I actually appreciate that they don't go overboard naming their beers. Most of them are named after their style/flavor i.e. Saison, IPA, Passion Fruit Sour. On my last visit the Hazy IPA was calling my name with 70 degree afternoon temps, and it was a patio pounder. Think the usual suspects when it comes to hops, fruity aromatics and flavor profile. With a lower IBU and sitting at 5.8%, it was the ideal beer on a sunny day. So much so that I had a few! Two fantastic bonuses here are the coffee and food programs. As soon as you walk in they have Bona Coffee Roasters, a fully functional coffee bar serving excellent coffee until 3pm most days. Outside you'll find McDevitt Taco Supply that has a great reputation in Boulder and Denver. And the long lines are a testament to their tasty tacos. One of the best places in Boulder to grab a beer. Bring a big group with you because they have the space to accommodate just about everyone. Sanitas, don't change a thing!
