25 Essential Tacos in and Around Denver

"While it offers everything from deeply savory buche to juicy barbacoa, this Aurora gem (with a second location in the University neighborhood) excels above all at batter-fried fish and shrimp tacos, at once shatteringly crunchy and catch-of-the-day fresh. Throw in an order of carne asada fries just for kicks." - Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
