If you’re looking for fantastic Mexican fusion food, Adelitas is the way to go! Everything tasted so good, and I will be coming back here again. I’m not a huge fan of alcoholic drinks, but our waitress recommended their espresso shots, which honestly weren’t too bad as far as shots go. My favorite part about eating here was the tres leches cake and ceviche. The only downside was that the ceviche had an off ratio to the number of chips they provided. I would definitely recommend ordering an extra basket of chips, especially if you plan on sharing.

Fire. Get that Ceviche, double up on the mole sauce, and definitely get the steak fajitas with corn and flour tortillas. All good. customer service was ‍ amazing. Place was packed and we were never neglected. Tip well. Don’t be cheap.

Outstanding! Bring friends so you can order a nice variety, everything we’ve ever had is excellent! As a professional chef I am sensitive to cleanliness, the kitchen was looking deeply cleaned on this and past visits (I always evaluate a kitchens clean level, even under the table legs, a cronic problem). We will be back soon!

Try all 4 of the sauces! It’s worth it. Also try mixing them all together. Great atmosphere. Friendly service from Haley who recommended I get a taste of all 4 sauces. If I hadn’t done this, my review would have been “fine”

Great food, service, and aesthetic! The food was so good here. I really liked their chips and guac (the ratio wasn’t perfect, but it’s hard for that to ever work out). The drinks were great, classic margaritas with a few flavor options. I got tacos and loved them. Would definitely go again with friends or on a date!

Overall, it was one of the best Mexican restaurants that have been to in the Denver metropolitan area. I highly recommend it. My only disappointment was with the cocktails. They are extremely small and very expensive. However, the delicious food made up for the lack of alcohol experience.

Wow! 10/10 food, I listened to other reviewers and got the mushroom sauce, it did not disappoint. The food portions were great for the price and the quality of food blew us away.

Great American Mexican restaurant specially for taco tuesdays! Vibrant vibes and somewhere difficult to get a table during rush hours, so plan accordingly. Tacos were delicious with a good amount of meat. Quick and attentive service.

Delicious Mezcalrita! The Burritos were tasty and my friend really liked the Carne Asada plate, but the Chile Verde sauce didn’t hit the spot. It had no heat and tasted store bought. Next time I will have to try their Mole!

I think this is probably the best authentic Mexican restaurant in Denver that’s not a hole in the wall in the hood. Been going here for years and it’s always a delight. Every friend I’ve ever taken here also becomes obsessed. They have a killer taco Tuesday special where select tacos are only 2 bucks.
