Authentic Mexican Cuisine from the streets of Mexico City.

In the heart of Denver, Colorado, where the Rocky Mountains frame the cityscape, a culinary treasure has thrived since November 1985. El Taco De Mexico, founded by Felipe Juarez and MaLuisa Zanabria, is more than just a restaurant—it is a bridge connecting the vibrant streets of Mexico City to the bustling avenues of Denver.

MaLuisa Zanabria, hailing from Mexico City, brought with her a deep love and respect for the culinary traditions of her homeland. Partnering with her mother, MaLuisa Juarez, she meticulously crafted recipes that captured the authentic flavors of Mexico. From the very beginning, their vision was clear: to offer Denverites the rich and soulful street food that embodies the essence of Mexican culture.

El Taco De Mexico quickly became a local favorite, drawing in crowds with its irresistible menu. Tacos, burritos, enchiladas, sopes, chile rellenos, tamales, tortas, and tostadas became staples for patrons seeking an authentic taste of Mexico. Each dish carries the legacy of traditional recipes, prepared with love and an unwavering commitment to quality.

Among its many offerings, one dish stands out as a beacon of culinary excellence: the award-winning green chile. Known for its bold yet balanced approach to spice, the green chile has garnered international acclaim. This emblematic Mexican dish has become synonymous with El Taco De Mexico, celebrated for its depth of flavor and perfect harmony of heat and richness.

Over the decades, El Taco De Mexico has become more than a restaurant; it’s a cornerstone of the Denver community. Locals and visitors alike flock to its doors, drawn not only by the food but also by the warmth and hospitality that Felipe and MaLuisa instilled in every corner of the establishment. Their dedication to preserving the spirit of Mexican street food has transformed El Taco De Mexico into a beloved institution.

As the years have passed, the restaurant has remained steadfast in its mission to share the authentic flavors of Mexico. With each taco served and every bowl of green chile enjoyed, El Taco De Mexico continues to honor the traditions and recipes that started it all. It’s not just a place to eat; it’s a place where memories are made, flavors are savored, and the spirit of Mexico comes alive in every bite.
