Denver's Most Authentic Mexican Restaurants

Being of Hispanic descent, I've always found it challenging to find Mexican restaurants that are as good or comparable to my mother and grandmother's cooking. Luckily, being born and raised in Denver gave me many opportunities to sample some of the best Mexican food that can be found in the United States.

Not only are Denver's Mexican restaurants delicious, many are independently owned, operated, and completely authentic.

Here is an overview of some of the most authentic Mexican restaurants in Denver, Colorado.

"Chubby's" is located at 1231 West 38^th Avenue and is the best Mexican restaurant you'll ever find in Denver. The food is authentic, delicious, made fresh, and like nothing you've ever tasted before.

The portion sizes are not for those with little appetites, they are very generous and crush the largest hunger pains. The spiciness and flavor is never compromised at "Chubby's" which makes it a favorite of locals and visitors alike.
