Torchy's Tacos

A long time ago, in the bustling town of Austin, Texas, a man named Mike Rypka bought a food trailer and a red Vespa. His dream? To start a taco joint. Like all great chefs, he filled his first menu with more experiments than meals — and thanks to some trips around town on his Vespa, and overhear...

Went to the Torchy's in Austin, TX last year and was in heaven!! So you know that when I heard about one being built in Denver I was ecstatic. Amazing tacos and queso !!!

Christina Aponee

Best queso in Denver. They sell 1/2 orders though not on the menu . True tex-mex spot. Texas natives, rejoice!

Usaj Realty

This place is amazing for breakfast , lunch or dinner ! Grab some friends and enjoy the open dining area. Great drink specials and the tacos are large and filling! One of the best taco spots in Denver.

Linda Nguyen

Very good tacos , I’m on a road trip and tried the tacos , the tipsy chick, Baja shrimp and the crossroads. Definitely hit the spot, such good flavors in each taco . Would go again if I’m ever back.

Nate Finch

Line went out the door but the wait was worth it. Comparable price to other taco joints but you get a lot more bang for your buck here! Will definitely be coming back.

Bommy

Gut bomb. Breakfast tacos are available all day. Ask for a half-order of the queso dip . Two tacos are plenty for one person.

Jackal

Get the brushfire and don't forget an order of queso . Still trying to figure out if the food is worth the wait but all I know is damn good.

Tyler Burgett

Bushwhacker and the green chile pork tacos are super tasty. The green chile queso is top notch, split it with a friend.

Dustin Haley

Another amazing Torchy's location. As always, you must get the quest. My favorite taco is the Trailer Park (get it "trashy")!

Kelley Robinson

Fried Avocado tacos , and queso . And margs . Comes in clutch if you need a place to fill up and cool down during the Westword Music Showcase!

Dave Meeson

Get whatever you want, it’s all good, but especially the queso . The hidden menu has some truly ridiculous creations in it.

Matt Layman

Definitely ask for a half order of queso , only $3 instead of 5.25 and they'll give you more chips if you ask too

Kaila Mazzy

White people love this place. Excellent margaritas but go on Monday when they're only $4

Emilio C

A chain from Houston but super good. It's one of my go to spots after a long hike .

Erin G

Great tacos . Go for breakfast and get Bloody Mary drink specials ! Bonus: it's far less crowded in the morning.

Brownstone Living NYC

Everyone is right about the breakfast . It's very very good and it holds you through out the day.

Gary Hale

The food is great here. It's noisy and always busy, but it's worth the wait in line to order.

@mrfboyer

You can get a 1/2 order of queso if you ask...

Joe

Get here before ten a.m. and skip the line . Torchy's opens at 7.

Joe

If you like spicy , get the brushfire taco . My mouth still hates me for what that salsa did to it.

Chris Smith

God, eat everything. Get the queso , thank me later.

Ellen Woytowitz

THE PARKING LOT IS PATROLLED BY A PREDATORY TOWING COMPANY!!! Your car will be gone in less than 15 minutes, and you’ll be stuck paying ~$350 to get it back! No sympathy from the restaurant manager.

Karen Morgan

Brisket tacos are the bomb

Ken Bazata

Trailer taco is great

Henry Desroches

Badass tacos , great chips and dip , and amazing dessert . We were expecting a Moontower clone but Torchy's has much better vegetarian options , and is a much cooler vibe.
