Smoked-meat tacos, ceviches, and frozen cocktails
"An upmarket taqueria offering elevated tacos and contemporary Mexican-inspired plates in an upscale, polished format." - Ruth Tobias
"This restaurant/bar is the site of an Ortega takeover pop-up on Saturday, February 8 at 3 p.m. serving tacos, Frito pie, and more; the public event is free to attend (food is not free), requires RSVP to save a spot, and will include a giveaway for two Super Bowl tickets." - Clair Lorell
"From the team that brought you excellent ceviche and churros at Señor Bear, Mister Oso serves that same style of pan-Latin food and party vibe, only with more tacos. Start with the downright perfect queso fundido, continue with lamb barbacoa and birria tacos, and finish with those excellent churros. Wash it all down with a pisco punch on Mister Oso’s magical, vine-covered patio and—for a second—the world might feel a little less like a dumpster fire." - allyson reedy, patricia kaowthumrong
"Mister Oso is a Latin American restaurant specializing in tacos with a twist — everything is served family style. Diners can enjoy tacos, like the coconut-braised mojo pork and lamb cheek barbacoa, with a selection from their expansive non-alcoholic agua fresca cocktail program." - Annie Harrigan
"Vines climb the wall, plants hang from the rafters, and flowers bloom on the patio of this contemporary taqueria, making for a refuge from the clamor on Larimer Street that’s all the more relaxing with a round of congelados (daily-changing frozen cocktails) and dishes like Mister Oso’s now-famous coconut rice as well as its smoked potatoes with chile crunch and crema." - Gigi Sukin
