*
dips & margs were very yummyyy

Cute little place in Denver with a bar area and a restaurant area. Very colorful inside with an open kitchen and TVs above the bar. There are a limited number of standard height tables and a decent amount of high top seating rows, which was fine for the taller members of our group, but we had to wait a bit for a standard table since we had some more petite members of our party.

The menu has a decent amount of creative combinations that extend beyond your traditional Mexican flavors.

Pros: creative taco combinations, quick service, decent portion sizes for the price

Cons: Loud, not terribly comfortable seating

TLDR: worth a try for the creative taco combinations.

This review is disappointing to write as I have been before and loved going up to the patio and grabbing a beer when it's nice out.
However, this time around when we came in on a beautiful sunny day we wanted to go up in the patio and it was closed. Our experience was very hostile from our hostess greeting us to the end of it. In addition, when arrived we asked our hostess simple questions and he acted annoyed with us.

When we sat down we knew we wanted queso so when we requested queso the waitress asked if we wanted chorizo, not specifying what kind of chorizo until we had the opportunity to look at the menu and it states "rattlesnake chorizo". We tried grabbing the waitress but when we had the chance our queso was already out. We asked about it as we were wanting just regular chorizo and we were told it's rattlesnake mixed with rabbit meat and pork. Untouched, we asked to send it back to regular queso and the attitude we received was very disappointing and unprofessional from our waitress.
The waitress continued to be rude for the remaining of our time there and when our checks came we noticed the original queso w/ chorizo was included. We then asked the waitress about it as we did not touch the queso and her response was "yes, its in there" she argued back and forth with us and then took our check and said she will speak with the manager about it. She then came back with the accurate check and said nothing to us.

I know it can get overwhelming as a server and hostess but there weren't too many when we got there. They really need to speak with their staff as this is not the first time their service has been unprofessional towards myself and the individuals I've been with.

A fun rooftop spot in RiNo! It is on a fun strip that you can walk to other places post drinks and food. The happy hour was amazing with good guacamole & tacos. The gluten free options are amazing! The service was kind and easy. Highly recommend!

We recently brought two dedicated foodies here and everything was exceptional. The coin margaritas were on point, the server was prompt and engaging, and the food was even better than expected. Had the big plate with chicken enchiladas and my friends had the 3 tacos with rice and beans plates and I lack the vocabulary to describe how good everything was. This was my fourth visit and I will be back, especially for the rooftop patio for margs on a summer day.

I came here with a girl friend on a Friday night around 7:30pm. We were able to get a seat right away on the roof top. *Stairs only

It took a while for a waiter to come up to us but that was okay because we were catching up. Started with some drinks and they were delicious, bare in mind the spicy marg.. is spicy. lol

My quesadilla was delicious. It had a little kick and was very filling. The tacos were also yummy with the shrimp taco being the favorite.

I did take off one star because of the stairs only, and bathroom. Only one stall was available and there was a big line.

This is a great date night spot or group hang out. The did have table that were big enough for six people.

Overall 4/5 stars!

This is definitely a happy hour hangout spot. We came for a late dinner on a Monday. Got the Marg Tower. Besides being tasty is a whole experience of its own. There was plenty for two people to share.
The queso and salsa flight came with plenty of chips. The best thing we ate all night was that birria taco. It was fantastic.

Cruising thru the city of Denver we decided to take a break and try a local spot for some appetizers. Los Chingones was highly recommended on Yelp so we stopped by.

Los Chingones also has a rooftop bar and restaurant for those looking for a drink while enjoying the scenery of downtown Denver. Unfortunately the unexpected rain prevented us from sitting upstairs but inside had great decor and packed with patrons who arrived from watching the Rockies play.

Los Chingones has a simple menu of traditional Mexican dishes as well as drink menu. We didn't have time for drinks in the visit but did order the fried Brussel Sprouts and queso dip. Both appetizers were delicious and reasonably priced.

Overall great experience and recommend anyone in the area stop by and enjoy a great time.

Yum! This place was such a tasty treat! The margharita flight was a fun experience but they recommend you share with another person since it equals 2.5 drinks.

The tacos are so good! Birria tacos were the best in my opinion. Highly recommend the guac as well.

We went here before a baseball game since it's not to far from the stadium. Great pit stop before heading over!

The rooftop is highly recommend but it was cooler to sit inside than up there. Very colorful though with a bar.

I was told this place had Margarita towers and my eyes went wide open. Who doesn't love margaritas?? And in a tower form?? Yes please.

I stopped in on a Friday night and was sat almost immediately for the roof top patio. Patio is an amazing spot to overlook RiNo and the city. Views were amazing, we got to even watch a beautiful sunset. I will say rooftop music can be loud for some, but I didn't mind.

For food we ordered the queso with additional corn added. I had the 3 taco combo. I originally ordered the birria, bang bang shrimp and gringo. I wasn't given the bang bang shrimp taco unfortunately and was given a different one. The kitchen seemed to be pretty busy and behind but it was a weekend so no stress. Food was still amazing and great flavor. My favorite was definitely the birria.

A worker from kitchen brought food to our table and had queso and tacos. Asked if we had ordered queso but we already had the queso on the table. Staff member had walked away and placed the tacos on a ledge outside and walked away for about 5 minutes before returning and grabbing the food and bringing it back to the table. Not the best thing to do in my opinion. Other than that every thing was great.

Fun spot for a quick date night or even a pregame spot before joining the bars below in RiNo.
