The Best Mexican Food in Denver | Eater Denver

"From chefs Erasmo Casiano of Lucina and Rene Gonzalez Mendez comes this suave date-night candidate in Uptown, where the deep thought and care that go into the seasonal menu — starting with an in-house nixtamalization program — are on display in dish after gorgeously presented dish. Masa-based items like tongue barbacoa-topped sopes, beef piccadillo-stuffed molotes, and tacos featuring duck carnitas or kanpachi al pastor on handmade tortillas are the natural stars of the show, supported by an intriguing cast of cocktails like the gin-based Martini Sucia with cilantro-infused vermouth and green onion shrub." - Ruth Tobias
