Denver WestwordAugust 5, 2014Now it features four versions of guacamole, including a killer smash of avocados pelted with chicharrons, as well as several new tacos Read more
Erin GAugust 9, 2015Great happy hour! $5 specialty Margs and other drinks. Try the Tamayo margarita or the Sandia Tajin. Mahi mahi ceviche is also a steal for $4.
Ashley SevadjianSeptember 19, 2019I had La Tampiqueña, which is a beautifully seasoned fillet steak with a tomato salad, guacamole, and a small cheese enchilada. It was delicious. You could taste every element.
Joshua AllanAugust 3, 2013Pepper infused Tequila is incredible, the chile Morita salsa is one of a kind, ask for the "agavero margarita" (casa nobles resposado, agavero liquor, citrus).enchiladas on the house if you CHECK IN.- Brent GatewoodSeptember 20, 2017Enchiladas and the namesake margarita were excellent. Good chips and salsa. Good and quick service. Yep, I'll be back!
Rachel KNovember 25, 2017Happy hour in the bar area gets you $5 margaritas, add a dollar for one of their house infused tequilas like sage pineapple or citrus lemongrass.- Denver WestwordJuly 23, 2013It is worth trying one of the out of the box margaritas such as the "Mercado" which blends serrano-infused tequila with passion fruit puree, citrus and a hibiscus rosemary foam.
Unlimited brunch on the weekends for $20!!! And it is DELICIOUS! Order everything from the menu - you wont regret it, promise!
Eric TigreJanuary 21, 2011Tamayo offers great dining in Denver's Larimer Square with fresh Mexican food flavors. Start with a prickly pear margarita or a michelada, and savor an order of the mole poblano for dinner. Me gusta! Read more
Upstairs has a gorgeous view! The queso fundido is amazing, unless your idea of queso is velveeta. The flavors are incredible and very unique!!
Jeff SchroerJuly 10, 2017All you can eat / drink brunch is where it's at. Great service, atmosphere and value.
Jennifer BushJune 5, 2013Quest fundido was fabulous! Not your average cheese dip like at other mexican restaurants - something special & definitely worth ordering.
Shannon VogelMarch 17, 2013The bottomless margarita brunch (unlimited small plates and free flowing brunch cocktails) for $35 is a no brainer!- Bill AtkinsonJanuary 16, 2015Short rib #enchiladas mahi mahi #tacos were fantastic. Also rec anjeo #tequila flight.
Ricky SherrillJuly 11, 2015Very good food & drinks. Great for lunch, dinner, & after work drinks with colleagues
Chris AlbrechtFebruary 14, 2018The huitlacoche and mushroom enchiladas were delicious, and just the right portion.
NED CAMPBELLJuly 27, 2018Food & service was good. However, air conditioner was broken during a heat wave. Staff was unapologetic about A/C. People left early because it was so hot. I'm sure it is better with a working A/C.
E. J. M.November 1, 2021The Caramelized Plantains are awesome! Enjoyed the Crab Guac and Mahi Mahi tacos as well.
Happy Hour favs coin style margarita, poblano tamal and al pastor taco- John HaberlandJanuary 25, 2014The Tamayo margarita is awesome. The plantains are very tasty but also very rich.
- Denver WestwordOctober 19, 2011Catch a great glimpse of the sunset on the rooftop while you down margaritas, chips and salsa and maybe even an entire Mexican feast!
Anna KhandruevaJuly 19, 2012The new pineapple Mojito is absolutely perfect - not too sweet and very refreshing!
eric bornemannJanuary 29, 2023Food is hit or miss, and the staff is a bit off. The fish was surprisingly fantastic.
Matt JacobsonApril 20, 2011Food was excellent. I had the filet. Only complaint is that they don't accept Discover cards, which is ridiculous for a restaurant charging over $20 for entrees.
Brad LargeSeptember 28, 2010Me and Choco Chona had all appetizers. Mahi mahi ceviche, calamari & queso fundido. All great! Just what we needed after moving home from Mexico.
Lori KlamoOctober 2, 2010The camarones dish is seriously awesome. We tried four dishes, and it was unanimously the favorite.
David FogelApril 18, 2018Not a lot. Food needs to be fresher and more creative. It is a tired, uninspired restaurant
Michelle MierzwaNovember 9, 2012Enchiladas de Jaiba...delicious. Prickly pear martini...prickly=a little sour
Ryan HochmillerSeptember 14, 2013Been here twice.. Server Matt is impolite and is focused more on him than the customer.
