25 Essential Tacos in and Around Denver

"With a splashy mural, handsome tilework, and pops of bright pink and orange, this Thornton charmer boasts a festive vibe that’s only enhanced by its fairly elaborate tacos. Grilled mahi mahi sits atop a dollop of rice, sprinkled with diced mango and crema; lamb birria drips with a tangy roasted tomato–chile sauce; and thick-sliced, batter-fried avocado comes drizzled in chipotle aioli over refreshing jicama slaw. Some 20 different margaritas infused with everything from cucumber and mint to habanero and tamarind keep the party going." - Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
