Denver’s Best Tacos | Eater Denver

"You get what you pay for. Yes, this upscale hot spot’s tacos are expensive by the standards of the genre ($13 apiece), but they’re also more like mini-entrees on house-nixtamalized, handmade edible plates than anything, graced with such gourmet stuff as duck carnitas in mole with sweet potato crema, kanpachi al pastor with charred pineapple and onion-ash crema, and duck fat–cured ribeye with fried potatoes and salsa verde. Besides, those prices are slashed in half at happy hour, when the toppings are more traditional (barbacoa de lengua, chicken tinga) but no less lovingly prepared." - Ruth Tobias
