    Love this place. Bowls are super huge and filling, the ambience is chill and modern, clean establishment, fresh tasty food at great prices. Service was excellent.

    Fast and friendly service. Food was fresh and tasty! Prices seem a little high but the environment was makes it worth it!

    Dined at Torchy's Taco tonight and I would give it 3.75 stars, but will round up to 4. Service : 4 stars. After placing the order our food was out within 5 mins. Food: the chips and 3 dips were really good. The Baja Shrimp tacos were really good, the steak fajita wasn't that good. The steak was tough. My brisket taco was pretty good too. Ambiance : very bright and plenty of seating. Specially in the summer they have plenty of outdoor seating.

    We visited on a Sunday and we found parking right away. There was no line when we got there. We ordered a grilled shrimp taco and my boyfriend ordered the fried shrimp taco and the beef Democrat taco. I liked both the shrimp tacos they were good with the pickled veggies. The queso was really good and flavorful and a little spicy; I really liked it! The churros were also really good and I liked the crunchy texture with the dulce de leche sauce. The ambiance was between chill and lively from the football game on the TV. The staff was friendly and attentive.

    Torchys queso is the bomb! Ordered one of the family platters with beef. It came with all the fixings and an extra beans was even thrown in. Could have used more tortillas based on the amount of toppings which is not a bad problem to have I suppose. Was pleased with the quick to go service and quality of everything. Have only eaten a couple times in person but this location is really nice with comfortable outdoor seating. The individual tacos are a little pricey so the family pack worked out well for us.

    Torchy's Tacos never disappoints, the Baja shrimp taco had just the right kick, and every bite burst with fresh flavor. Their queso? Still one of the best around. The vibe was laid-back, and the staff made me feel right at home. Torchy's, creative tacos every time. It was absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be back soon!

    Came here on Monday night. They have a big selection of tacos. Ordering is very easy. The lady cashier wasn't too friendly but she did her job. Food came out really fast. I liked their selection of drinks, I tried the mango juice and dark cherry grape juice. I like all their tacos since I've been here multiple times. Today I got the Baja shrimp, tipsy chick which was a little spicy but not bad, democrat and chicken fajita. They're always packed with flavor. They're definitely not skimpy and 2 to 3 always fills me up even with my healthy appetite. Prices are ok. Cleanliness is ok, could definitely be cleaner as some of the tables were not wiped down.

    Service was great. Staff was friendly! Tacos were good- a bit on the pricier side. We got the chips and guacamole. Guacamole needed salt. Drinks were on the weaker/sweeter side! Loves the shrimp tacos. Didn't really enjoy the refried beans on the fried avocado- tasted like microwaved canned beans.

    Shardul T.

    Absolutely tasty!!!! I loved my fajita chicken taco and grilled shrimp taco. Highly recommend this restaurant as a pickup location for food while driving to DEN airport from the West. Service was quick and there's good amount of indoor/outdoor seating. Ambiance was quite refreshing

    Definitely my new favorite taco joint in Denver! Good customer service, great drinks at the bar, and my favorite taco is called the "Democrat". Two of any taco here it's gonna be way more than a meal for most people. These are not the chintzy little street tacos. These are some loaded with meat, and avocado tacos. The chips and dips with queso is also the bomb. The ambience inside is chill, quaint and inviting. This is a great place to sit and have conversation with friends they don't Blair loud music I have TVs blasting. Definitely a great place to meet with friends or family after work or for a weekend lunch. Check it out. You won't be disappointed!

    Kike's Red Tacos changed my life. Before this place, I was a normal person. After my first queso…read moretaco dipped into that rich, glorious consomé, I became someone who casually considers flying to Denver "for lunch." I started going when they were still operating out of their food truck, and honestly, watching them grow into a permanent restaurant feels like seeing your favorite underground band finally make it big... except instead of music, they're dropping cheesy taco masterpieces. The queso tacos are absolutely ridiculous in the best possible way: crispy, cheesy, messy, and worth ruining at least one shirt over. And the consome? That stuff could heal emotional damage. It's rich, comforting, and somehow makes you immediately want "just one more taco" even when you're already full. Every time I'm in Denver, this place is mandatory. Not optional. Not "if there's time." Mandatory. My vacation itinerary basically starts with flights and ends with tacos. So happy to see Kike's getting the recognition they deserve. If you haven't been yet, prepare to have your standards permanently ruined for all other tacos.

    Walk in casually as you go about your day on a sunny afternoon and have a quick Mexican food along…read morewith a refreshing Mexican beer kind of place is how I summarize this place. This long skinny establishment - not necessarily super spacious - can offer you a decent food that you can count on. You don't need anybody to go with - you can be a solo diner because this place is not intimidating in any way. It's that casual. I think this establishment was born in the old Stoney's Cantina space. Whether the place was huge enough to create two businesses (and thus La Loteria occupied half of it), I sort of saw some "remnant" of Stoney's was the impression that I got. Whatever I am correct on this or not, this casual Mex place is all about vivid pastel colored interior where red is mostly dominant. Intriguing murals on walls 360 degrees are quite impressive. Once you are inside, a huge arrow to direct the people to order to their left at the ordering counter. That ordering counter extends all the way where you'll see some bar seatings. The right side of it mostly has tables for small to large groups of people. Like I said, this place is not huge but at the same time, people don't stay long to dine; the turnover is quite quick in a way. The restaurant also gets many walk-in to-go order placers as well. I got me the Aztec Bowl for to-go. This dish is only $11 (as of early May of 2025) and is a vegetarian item. I consume a lot of vegetarian diet and yet my instinct loudly spoke to me to add some protein to it. Whether or not you can keep it non-meat to stay in the vegetarian zone, adding some protein to this dish is a must as if it was by itself, it would be a bit boring because it only has some greens and some slices of avocado. As the add-on, I got me the carne asada ($5.00) that comes with rice. Not bad.. I didn't eat it right after I got home; I meant to get it to eat it the next day which I did (this AM.) It was still fresh where nothing tasted stale. The carne asada was well-cooked with seasonings. In other words, it wasn't salty at all but held good flavors. Now on the receipt, I saw a charge of what's called "takeout service fee" which is 18%. I kind of assumed that this was mostly the mandatory gratuity. At the end of the card transaction, I remember that the different gratuity percentages were listed on the machine and they were quite small because of this fee. It'll be up to you to add more if you wish. Some people might complaint about this mandated system and yet I kind of understand that businesses nowadays must survive by navigating through the rising cost of living. As we have seen our favorite businesses disappear in the recent years, I am here to support them by whatever I could within my power. Whereas the parking on Broadway is a pain in the neck at any time of the day, if I think of a casual Mexican dining in the Baker neighborhood next time, I may stop by here. It's a good establishment to know.

It had the perfect proportion of fries, meat, and toppings. I also really like that guacamole is an option. However, what caught my attention at this place is their buzzball slushy. Surprisingly, this drink isn't bad at all. It's quite tasty and doesn't taste the alcohol as much. Overall, my friends and I had a great experience here and would highly recommend it!

It's also very unassuming. It looks like a very small restaurant on the outside but once you are inside, you'll be shocked to see its good size dining area. This place is all about happiness. I mean seriously!! They care about their customers that get satisfied with their service and meals. And it does draw a very diverse crowd from the Hispanics to Caucasians to Asians, I mean you name it. They also get a lot of to-go orders. Some people came in, grabbed their food and went on their way for the night. My friend got the Torta Los Carboncito. This is a massive sandwich with plenty of meat inside. Since the menu has colored picofor almost each item, what caught my attention was the fish dish. There are two of them: one is trout and the other is something else (I forgot) but I got me the non-trout one. The lady asked me if I wanted the flour or corn tortillas so I went with the corn one. As soon as I got home, my late night snacking started. I only took several bites out of that whatever the huge fish. And oh my goodness, it was so delicious! Well-seasoned with very light salt. Although I mainly got it for tomorrow morning/lunch I had a hard time quit eating because of its deliciousness. Extremely welcoming staff (I even met the owner, Alex as he was dining with his family), quality food and value pricing, this place checks out for the hidden gem restaurant that's not necessarily super fancy but it's worth every penny and time. Yelping is so much fun. That is why I cannot quit my foodie-ness! What a nice discovery!
