Where to Find Denver’s Most Satisfying Mexican Food

"Corazon means “heart” in Spanish, which is something this beloved LoDo longtimer has plenty of: There’s a homemade (as opposed to housemade) quality to everything it serves — from addictive beef-and-bean dip to crispy chiles rellenos in thick, rust-colored Colorado-style green chile to pork chops smothered in ranchero sauce. Even more charming are the prices, which seem like throwbacks to the pre-pandemic era: Most entrees are under $16, and margaritas don’t crack the $9 mark." - Ruth Tobias, Eater Staff

18 Downtown Lunch Options for Every Occasion | Eater Denver

"Splitting the difference between Tex-Mex (fajitas, chimichangas) and Colo-Mex (thick green chile, burrito-like “Mexican hamburgers”), this Larimer Street joint is as busy as it is beloved for big portions, hard-to-beat prices, and the premium it puts on pure comfort, from the frozen margaritas onward." - Eater Staff

Visited D’Corazon on a weekday evening with a party of three and arrived around 7 PM. As expected for a popular downtown spot, indoor seating was full, and we were offered a table on the outdoor patio. Despite the chill in the air, the ambiance and quick service made up for it. We ordered the Chicken Mole, Steak Fajitas, and Carnitas Adobada. All three dishes were flavorful and well-prepared — the mole had a rich, deep flavor, the steak was tender and sizzling hot, and the carnitas had a great smoky marinade that really stood out. Drinks-wise, we tried the Spicy Margarita. It had a definite kick — maybe a bit too spicy for some — but it balanced well with the citrus and tequila, making it a bold, refreshing choice. Overall, a great experience with authentic flavors and solid service. Would definitely recommend for casual dining in downtown Denver.

Outstanding! The food, drinks, service and the vibe were all excellent! It’s not fancy, stuffy, reserved or ostentatious; actually it was packed with regular folks casually dressed, smiling, laughing and having a great time! They brought us hot homemade chips with an excellent homemade salsa to start and were quick with cocktails. Then the chicharrones, which were different than I’d had before, really meaty, rustic; tossed with masa and seasonings (I think that’s what they did) and fried, YUM! I had the best mole I’ve ever tasted and my wife loved her carne adobada. The beans and rice were also excellent, a good item to compare from restaurant to restaurant for the cook’s skill and attention to detail. Only one problem, it’s downtown in the middle of never ending construction, but that’s not the restaurant’s fault. This will be our go to place when downtown.

Wow, talk about a great little place. Me and a friend recently met up here to eat before a Denver Nuggets game and completely loved the vibe and atmosphere, this place was packed and it’s obviously a popular place. We were greeted with a friendly and welcoming staff, we were seated at a table against the wall close to the bar. Great menu choices and their chips and salsa were some of the best, chips were warm and crispy and the salsa some of the best I’ve had for a Mexican restaurant. We both ordered the Carnitas with green chili, rice and refried beans which came with tortillas, service was excellent and prompt even with this place being packed they are very attentive. The food was great and what makes this place really nice is the busy atmosphere, it wasn’t but a few blocks walk to Ball arena which was much needed after that. Great dinner, the food tasted excellent and just overall had a great time. Lots of menu choices for all food types, we didn’t drink, but they had margaritas which I would like to try next time I’m here. Can’t wait to come back here and try some of the other menu items, definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a happening atmosphere and good food.

Went on a Monday around 7:30, busy but comfortable. No wait, drinks, appetizers, and food came out quick. Ordered the #6 grande combo, DELICIOUS! 10 out of 10, go try it if you’re craving real Mexican.

My husband and I were visiting from Canada and decided to check this place out after reading all the great reviews. We tried the Enchiladas and Chile Relleno—absolutely blown away by the flavors! Everything was so delicious. The staff were super polite and welcoming, and we loved the vibe of the place. Definitely a highlight of our trip!

If you’re from the south and miss Mexican restaurants with the flavors and style of them, D’Corazon is for you. It was the best Mexican I’ve had in Denver - casual atmosphere, quick service, delicious and hot food. The enchiladas sauce was flavorful + beans and rice were hearty portions. The housemade salsa was also a shining star, chunky and a little spicy kick. Such a great downtown spot and definitely recommend

Great “hole in the wall” restaurant. I may not have stopped if I wasn’t craving a margarita and Mexican food. I had a taco salad with ground beef. Normally taco salads are not that great; tasting like they were a requirement of a menu rather than an item that could be someone’s favorite. This one was delicious. Plus they served chips with salsa $6 happy hour margaritas. Staff was nice and service was quick. I’d definitely come back!

Salsa was spicy (for a white kid) but amazingly flavored. Fajitas were some of the best I've had in a very long time and the homemade flour tortillas topped it off. Everything was fresh, delicious and lightning fast.

In my opinion, De Corazón remains the absolute best Mexican restaurant in Denver. I hate that more and more people are discovering this gem because it's making the wait times longer, but honestly, the food quality remains above all else and it's worth every minute of waiting. Incredible Chicken Fajitas: I always order the chicken fajitas and they are absolutely amazing every single time. The flavors are perfect and the quality is consistently outstanding. This is what authentic Mexican food should taste like. Truly Authentic Experience: The food here is genuinely authentic - you can taste the difference compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area. Everything is prepared with care and traditional techniques that really show in the final product. Owner-Operated Excellence: The owner is there every single day they're open, personally making sure that everyone is well taken care of. You can feel that personal touch and commitment to quality in every aspect of the experience. Outstanding Margaritas: Their margaritas are absolutely chef's kiss - strong and DELICIOUS! You can get them frozen or on the rocks, and they offer incredible flavors. My personal favorite is peach, but honestly you can't go wrong with any of them. Best part? They'll let you take to-go margaritas with you! Fresh Complimentary Sides: The complimentary chips and salsa are fantastic. The salsa is incredibly fresh - you can literally taste every single ingredient. It's the perfect way to start your meal. Perfect Execution: The food comes out fast, piping hot, and delicious every time. The kitchen clearly knows what they're doing and takes pride in their work. Consistently Great Menu: You honestly can't go wrong with any food option on their menu. Everything I've tried has been exceptional, which is rare to find. Lifelong Customer: I keep coming back again and again, and at this point they have a lifelong member in me. When you find a place this special, you hold onto it. De Corazón has earned my unwavering loyalty through consistently excellent food, service, and authenticity.

A Hidden Gem in Downtown Denver! D'Corazon is hands down one of my favorite spots in the city. The food is consistently delicious--authentic, flavorful, and generously portioned. Their Carnitas dish was absolutely amazing--tender, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Pair it with their house-made green chile, and it's next-level. The service is warm and welcoming, and even when it's busy (which it often is, for good reason), the staff keeps things moving smoothly. It's got that perfect mix of casual comfort and high-quality food that makes you want to come back again and again. Whether you're a local or just visiting, D'Corazon is a must.

Truly, my happy place. My brain lights up every single time I have food from here! I recommend the #5 (enchilada, burrito--beef or chicken, and chile relleno)! It hits the spot every time, sometimes I can finish it and other times not so much, but it's fire! Their chips and salsa for the table are and the guac is too! Horchata is a must, but you gotta pick what sweet you want and commit-- because the sopapillas are incredible too (just filling)! The service has always been solid and kind! They move fast and I've not really felt rushed while there, but they will keep it moving, especially when it's a busy night. Go for lunch if you want a more leisurely vibe, so you don't feel the pressure as much. I've also tried bites of the Mexican hamburger and that was fire! Give them a try and enjoy! (No pics because I can never wait to eat)

Wow- just wow. I haven't had food this delicious in ages. They have everything down to perfection- crunchy chips and tacos, chile heavy salsa and sauces, and delicious margaritas. To top it all off- the wait staff is excellent at serving. We ate more than we'd planned but it just soooo good! Highly recommend this place!

I'm going to move this review down a star for lack of customer recognition. We've been coming here for years, Friday nights are popular for us and we often come with friends. We've found that despite our regular appearance, it's like we are new customers every time. All the staff are so polite and efficient but there is no attempt to connect or value repeat customers. We've started patronizing other local options and found that after 2-3 visits they recognize and acknowledge and engage us in a way that makes it feel like you are more than a 30 minute turn at a table. It feels like, "Hey neighbor, welcome back!" Last night was the least enjoyable experience we have had. Staff circle and circle and circle trying to turn tables and keep the flow going, to the point that it's distracting and not any fun any more to go there. It's very transactional. The manager was standing next to us staring while we were still eating trying to gauge how many more mouthfuls it would take for us to finish eating and vacate the table so they could usher another group inside. Our entire time in the restaurant was less than 45 minutes and we spent 15 minutes waiting to be sat. What they do well is deliver consistently good food delivered to your table in a flash. The staff rarely changes and they treat their staff to unusual benefits other restaurants don't offer. I appreciate all of this and that is ultimately what has fueled our continued patronage. However, it's time to spend our dollars where we are valued and welcomed because that feels good. I can get Mexican food at 1000 places in Denver, but being acknowledged as a human in this day and age is surprisingly rare. That's worth a star or two in my book.

Still the best! Came here, ate outside. Service was amazing. Walked away $52 for dinner and drinks, two people including a tip. One of our favorite place to eat before Rockies or Nuggets game.

My favorite restaurant in Denver! Not to mention, their prices are very affordable. I would recommend their Horchata, it's so creamy and delicious. I always order their enchiladas, the sauce is delicious and homemade. Another positive is the staff is very hardworking and friendly. It's usually very busy, but the wait is always worth it. Go check out this place if you love good authentic Mexican food.

Great food at affordable prices right outside of Larimer Square. I had the carnitas chimichanga, which was really good! It came with sour cream and guacamole on top. The green Chile sauce was really flavorful. The decor was lots of wood, hand painted murals and a snarky sign. Kind of a cross between a biker bar and a Mexican restaurant. The only thing I didn't like was the server said that they don't split checks. Not sure if it's a tech issue or a service issue, but it's usually a pretty simple thing to do, especially with just three people. Overall, I would go back if it were just me and my husband, but if I were visiting with a group I might choose a different place.

My favorite meal in Denver over a week long trip! The value was incredible, all for a price so low my party gasped upon receiving the bill. Every portion was incredibly generous (not even considering price). Warm, cheery, culturally curated inner decor. The cheese enchilada was delicious -- strong enough to hold shape but melted into your mouth, bathed in a shallow tasty soup. It was my first time having a chimichanga (crispy burrito), which I'm disappointed about because I'm not sure how many will be as luxurious as this one. Again generously topped with guac and sour cream, with delicious insides (I asked to replace the meat with bell pepper, which still turned out to be very good), also bathed in a shallow soup. The chips were decent but the guac was exceptional. No extraneous spice mix -- great ingredients, generous portions; plain and simple. My colleague visiting from Mexico was impressed. Their house salsa was also a great spice enhancer. Highly recommend for high-quality Mexican food for a cheap price. (can't over-emphasize that it's not that the price density was good -- it was excellent food for a low price). We originally planned to dine at Jovanina down the street, but they had a very, very long, pretentious line. Sooo happy to have skipped that place.

Stopping through Denver from LA...D'Crazon had a ton of great reviews so decided to try them. Lo's of great Mexican options in LA so giving 4 instead of 5 stars, but was a good meal and finished my plate. Staff was friendly and inviting and prices were very reasonable. Highly recommended

Consistently enjoyable, fast, tasty, and filling. Great variety of menu items: all the classics, plus good mole, real rellenos, and strong carnitas. I appreciate the unusually tasty (and slightly spicy) salsa with the chips. Service is always friendly. Cool decor inside. It's pretty small, it can get busy at peak lunch periods so maybe come early. Good value for downtown.

If you are looking for affordable casual Mexican food place downtown, D'Corazon is it! Start off with complimentary chips and salsa, then get ready for some delicious, authentic Mexican dishes! My favorite is the burrito plate entree (either bean and chicharron or ground beef is what I recommend) or one of the combination plates! Definitely have tried combo 1 and 5! The chicharrones appetizer is also a hit if you like authentic chicharrones. Green chile is tasty but could be spicier for my own personal taste. Consistently happy with the food and service after several visits! Friendly and attentive servers! Dining space is small-medium size area. Casual environment- noise level depends on how busy it gets. Great spot!

Is a small Mexiacn Restraunt, very cute and colorful. Service was good but to stuffy. Guacamole, salsa was good. Meat had good flavor. Taco salad didn't realy have veggies and the fajita plate also came out with not very many vegetables. No rice and wither meal. But it could just be how they are made in Colorado versus California. I did love the bar saying and thw beautiful wall hangings.

Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant; we weren't planning to eat here, but because our original plan was unexpectedly closed, we made an impromptu decision to eat here. Coming from a place with plenty of good, authentic Mexican food, I wasn't sure what to expect when it came to Denver Mexican. Luckily of what we ordered, it wasn't bad. The mains were alright, and the accompanying arroz, frijoles, y más were solid. Staff were great throughout too. If I were in Denver with a serious hankering for comida Mexicana, this would do alright.

Not being from Denver I knew I had to try out the local Mexican food, and this place is by far and away the best in the area. Right when you walk through the doors you are greeted by the sweetest abuelas and they take you to your seat. All the food is authentic real deal Hispanic food. My recommendation is the chimichanga and most definitely the spicy con queso w chorizo.

Went on a recommendation from a local and this place is legit. Got there just in time before the crowd filled the place. This is super delicious food. My table had the famous carnitas and Huevos rancheros and I had the carne Abodada which was amazing. The steak was so tender and the sauce was special. I can see why this place is jammed. Love it and can't wait to go back.

What a great place! We stopped by here for a late lunch. The interior is beautiful. Hardwood tables in a very comfy space. The service was amazing, someone came to see us right away. We had chips with delicious salsa. We followed it up with a grand combo that included delicious crispy chili relleno, beef enchilada, and cheese enchilada. We also had the Carnitas with a special sauce. Everything was really good!

Absolutely delicious food! We had the chicken fajitas and various tacos and everything had a lot of flavor. Food came fast, however, staff is cordial but not overly friendly. The decor is what you would expect from a Mexican restaurant but nothing special.

Great lunch! Came here with coworkers for a birthday lunch and it was quiet and empty when we arrived, but filled up quick. The open/closed sign on the door was set to closed when we got there. It got busy but not loud, which was awesome. We were seated to a table for 8 immediately. Only half our party had arrived so we were brought chips and salsa and beverages while everyone else trickled in. We did ask for a refill on chips and salsa, which we were informed is not free. Orders were taken in relatively short order and food came out quick. Everything was enjoyed, including my chicken mole. The one hiccup we had was the 4 sets of tortillas were bright in 2 baskets without a comment, so a couple of our diners were left wondering where the rest of their meal was until the server returned and told us (one person was on the other end of the table from their corn tortillas).

We stopped in on our way over to a Rockies game, the place was packed! We ordered some tacos and queso and margaritas. The tacos were shredded beef, nice flavor. The queso was delicious but spicy! Even spicier was the salsa that came with the chips. Also, the margaritas were a tad too sweet. Overall, good, and good prices. Would definitely like to go back and try some other menu items.

Don't get me wrong the food is good and waitresses are always sweet to me! Ran into a tiny little issue, I come to this place pretty often so I never really need a drink menu because I get the same things. Margaritas use to be about 7ish bucks depending on which one you get. They are now $11 which I was unaware of. Just thought it was a little inconsiderate that they aren't making people aware their prices have gone up. I told the manager and he was pretty rude about it considering he's always nice. Not sure what's up with this place but idk If I'll be back unfortunately.

Adding an updated review to compliment my new favorite dish at D'Corazon: the pork chop The pork chop was so tender and flavorful. I ordered the Mexican style so it came up with green chili. Service was as friendly as always. No wait on weekday night. You have to drive around for street parking since it's in downtown Denver In addition to the pork chop, of course, the chicken mole was satisfying as always

I came here twice in three weeks on two separate trips to Denver. It is conveniently located in Downtown Denver. The service here was consistently great. And the food tasted phenomenal. The first time I came was for dinner before a Nuggets game, and the second time was for a midweek lunch. This place was packed both times. They place chips and salsa on all the tables. You can start munching as soon as you're seated. I ordered their Smothered burrito plate with the shredded beef the first time. The chili had was very flavorful and had a nice kick to it. It was served with rice and beans which were just as tasty. Overall a very delicious and filling burrito. The shredded beef was also cooked perfectly and I enjoyed it so much I ordered the same meat for my Chimichanga on my next visit. I was disappointed when I was told that the Chimichanga doesn't come with rice and beans. It does come with guacamole and sour cream on top of the Chimichanga though. I think the guacamole & sour cream work great with a dry chimichanga, but it is definitely not needed on a smothered burrito. It becomes a sloppy mess and most of the flavors gets lost. Overall very satisfied with both my visits and will definitely be returning on my next Denver trip.

We've tried many things on the menu, all were good. Pricing is great for denver, and the margaritas are strong and good. Service is always fast and we're usually seated right away. The salsa is more medium/hot which is a small drawback, but still one of our favorite restaurants in Denver.

There are a lot of things that I enjoyed about this restaurant. For starters the service was fast. The sever quickly brought out some seasoned chips and mildly spicy salsa. I enjoyed it. They also have several types of drinks that were offered. The rest of the menu has all of the standard Mexican food that you are accustomed to. There was not a single miss in our party of 4. All of the items came out as ordered. Fresh, hot and well seasoned. The table had a mix of items. The chicken in three of the four dishes was cooked perfectly. The fourth person had a beef dish and they really enjoyed it too. Two of my absolute favorites were the spicy queso and the seasoning on the pinto beans. Wow! Soooooo good. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.

Serving the LoDo side of Denver since 2014. Good food, great service and reasonably priced! For two stiff cocktails and two dishes it was less than $50. Their Burrito and Carnitas Plate were so delicious. Lucky Lodo! I definitely will have everything that we ordered again. But why? I'll try something else. I'm eyeing their Chimichangas I'm looking forward to going back!

Translated is D heart in Spanish. I had a large Fajita Burriito, Aross (Beans & Rice), and a cold Negro Modelo served with some heart today. I like the small taqueria vibe, and it looked like a family atmosphere working there. Here's the beats..... Uno: Green Chili's green chilis, green chilis just make sure whatever you order has the green chili sauce. Dós: It's an old school menu so this is the hits done well. All with that Southwest plateau chili vibe and taste. Très: There were a couple folks rostering on the bar seats rolling through Margs while I was there so I am gonna go out on a limb and say they can put together a solid Marg! Oh and the green chilies hit them up if I didn't say it before. ATTENTION!!! There salsa is solid but has some heat, wimps beware ;) Out!

Spring break in Colorado has been our go-to for a number of years. Before heading up to the mountains, we always spend some time in Denver. This time we stayed downtown near Union Station and ventured out for dinner one night. After a couple of strikes, we eventually ended up at D'corazon Mexican Restaurant, just a few blocks away. There was a little line out the door, but we were told that the wait would only be twenty minutes or so. Fortunately, it was more like ten minutes until our table was ready! D'corazon has been around for over 25 years. Their space is much larger than it appears from the outside. It's not wide, but is quite deep and even has a bar in the back. Service is quick and efficient. They are able to turn tables over pretty quickly. When I see a chimichanga on the menu, nine times out of ten that's what I will order. This particular chimichanga ($12.88) was among the best I've had. The star of the dish is their delicious green chile sauce. Similarly, my wife is a sucker for green chile, a staple dish of U.S. Southwestern cuisine. The green chile plate here ($14.88) is served with chunks of pork, rice, beans, and tortillas on the side. It is spicy but incredibly flavorful. No matter what you order from D'corazon make sure it comes with green chile!

I was actually very blown away by this place! I have been super loyal to los dos potrillos in littleton for a long time but after moving more into the city we've been on the hunt for a new spot. D'Corazon did not disappoint! We sat outside on the little patio area and the service was still great (aka, we weren't forgotten about just because we were outside). the prices were great too! Food was a solid 10/10 and DONT get me started on the margaritas. I saw reviews saying they were deadly so i thought that meant really strong but surprisingly they aren't strong at all but still get you very buzzed-- my kind of marg! i had two of them and had to have my husband drive home. If you're looking for a good mexican restaurant look no further!! Go here!

their red chile sauce is probably the best in denver. their green chile is solid (with pork or vegetarian). they have strong margaritas, good mexican beers on tap, good chips and salsa. it's family owned and operated. they are very nice people, and provide excellent service. the downtown location is sometimes challenging, especially during Av's and Rockie's games. but it's worth it. probably our favorite mexican food in denver.

Prior to last night, I would have given D'Corazon 5 stars. I read through the recent reviews and see a few others had a similar experience. We showed up a little early, but our entire party was not there yet so they wouldn't seat us. Not a problem. My husband asks "can we wait at the bar"? She answers "yes". We sit at the bar. Order drinks. My husband gets up to get one of our friends that had arrived. The bartender tells me we can't hold seats. (a) my husband was gone 2 minutes, (b) there was NO ONE else at the bar. Say that to me when there is a line at the door and all the bar seats are full. Then our entire party arrives, 8 people. There isn't a table big enough. Our friends meet us at the bar. Everyone orders a drink. The same hostess that told us we could wait at the bar, tells us to get to-go glasses for our drinks and wait outside. It was raining. There is still NO LINE at the door. My husband says "No. Why?". She says, "we are not busy, we need you to move. You are blocking the staff." Why didn't you say that rather than ask us to stand outside in the rain? There is plenty of room for us to sit and squeeze in and get out of the way. Easy. All this happened in 30 mins!! It's not like we were at the bar an hour. The table was ready in 30 mins from the time our party showed! Plus we were all drinking!! Our bar tab was $100! It's not like we were keeping the lame bartender from making his money. It was the most disrespectful, ridiculous encounter. The staff is just trying to get everyone in and out, even when there is no one to get in and out. This restaurant has lost the love for their customers. Simply rude. There are so many other restaurant options, don't need to be treated like this for a sub par taco.

D'Corazon is my hearty go-to spot for Mexican food. I always order the fajita or the fajita burrito, and they never disappoint. The house margaritas are a must-try and perfectly complement the meal. Whether you're going for a casual night out or a fun time with friends, this place always delivers a great experience.

This is one of my favorite Hispanic/Mexican restaurants in Denver! Every time I stop in I'm met with quick and friendly service. It's a place where you can feel comfortable taking your time or if in a rush, your food will be put out very quickly. As for the food specifically, we have tried many things but the below dishes are our personal favorites: Ranchero Smothered Ribeye - This was extremely flavorful, a smooth and savory tomato/potato chunky sauce, with a side of homemade rice and beans. Beef Nachos - You cannot miss here. Very simple combination that speaks for its self. Chicken Taquitos - The Taquitos are also a simple and flavorful combination. The overall dining experience is a large single room with plenty of space for large groups, couples or solo diners. I highly recommend giving D'Corazon a try, phenomenal fresh and local option!

The food is so so...the drinks are not good. ALL the margaritas are made with pre-made mix. Which is weak and not good. We ordered a jack and coke..and the soda was flat..huge disappointment in the Mile High! I really wanted a good margarita....THIS AINt it!!

The best service, the best margs, and the best authentic Mexican food! If there is a wait, don't turn away. They work really fast to get everyone seated as quickly as possible.

The food was delicious! I think sometimes Mexican food restaurants try to do too much with simple dishes...this restaurant did not, and it was wonderful! The staff was friendly and they got a party of 9 in very quickly and were very accommodating. Great experience!

I was in Denver for work for a week and I ate here 4 times. I couldn't stop coming back. This may be some of the best Mexican food I've had anywhere in the world let alone North America or the US. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend the Mole Enchiladas and the crispy chile relleno. They are exceptionally good. The chips are good, their house salsa is great, their pricing is beyond reasonable and the stage are so so nice. I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. If I could give it 1000 stars I would. Excellent!!!
