The Best Mexican Food in Denver | Eater Denver

"Chef Michael Beary has spent years working directly with farmers in Oaxaca to import ingredients otherwise hard to find in the U.S., including rare chiles, so dishes that showcase them are the natural highlights of this somewhat overlooked downtown spot. Cases in point include shrimp-octopus salad in lemon-chilcosle dressing; grilled duck with a pasilla de Oaxaca rub, pomegranate reduction, and avocado salsa; and mozzarella-stuffed skirt steak in negro chilhuacle mole. Meanwhile, given the restaurant’s location in a corporate office tower, $12 margaritas are a real bargain." - Ruth Tobias
