THE Best Mexican Food in Denver – This restaurant features Mexican food, and by that I mean REAL Mexican food. The portions are ample, the produce is fresh and the prices are more than reasonable. The building itself is cozy and the booths offer a real privacy. The Mariachis are SO much fun and the bartenders know how to make a margarita. If it weren't for the completely inattentive waitresses, I would have no qualms giving this place five stars.
More Effective Than Ipecac – My boyfriend is very picky about Mexican food and we've yet to find a restaurant that's totally authentic. So, after some time reading reviews and researching online, we decided to try El Tejado. BIG mistake. While the service was friendly but very slow, the food was absolutely terrible. He immediately vetoed future visits. Less than half-way through my entree, I got heartburn. The prices were a lot higher than expected. We paid, tipped well, and got in the car to leave. We made it less than five... read more
A successful blending of Mexican dishes, Tex-Mex and Southwestern-style food. – In Short El Tejado is rightly known for its seafood. A favorite of Mexicans lonely for a taste of their homeland is Huachinango--fried red snapper marinated in garlic. Halibut is done the same way. Raw oysters or Cocktel de Camaron (shrimp cocktail) should be thrown down with Negro Modelo beer or Cuervo Margaritas. Tostadas, burritos and enchiladas would please eventhe most finicky Southern Coloradoans. Chips and salsa come to the table without h... read more
Genuine and true Mexican Food. Doesn't get anymore authentic than this! – El Tejado is the most authentic actual sit down restuarant in the Denver Metro area that isn't one of those really small places where you actually have to speak spanish to order. El Tejado will give you a huge variey on the menu and dishes that are native to Mexico. Sunday's are terribly busy as there is usually a strolling mariachi band. There are usually lots and lots of Mexican National families which add to the ambiance. The food is wonderful.
Great fun – We had heard good things but were impressed anyhow. Prompt service, good food friendly staff and to top it off.a 9 person Mariachi band Sunday afternoons. I will definitely be back.
Ask for the tacos de lengua!! – *This review was for a takeout order, but the waitstaff seemed amicable and able.* I live in south Denver, which has only a fraction of all the wonderful Mexican restaurants that can be found in north Denver, but El Tejado satisfied my craving for some good grub. I had a hankering for tacos de lengua (tongue) and the hostess was kind enough to get them made for me despite tongue not being on the menu. I cook professionally and I'm sure that the cooks have a good store of offal ready for their ... read more
THE BEST AROUND TOWN – There food is great and they serve you a good amount on your plate the the prices are great, I wish there were more places like it. Should be rated higher.
All about Food & Not Atmosphere – The restaurant has great food. However, the atmostphere is not what many consider great. It is not fancy and not quiet. Many restaurants consider themselves Mexican but don't cook real mexican food. El Tejado does! I suggest you go when they have a Mariachi Band!
mucho goodo – this is one of the best restaurants around. we eat there (lakewood) several times a month..the best salsa ever....the service is always good, the waitresses are excellent, and it helps to speak spanish..that is always appreciated.
