BEST MEXICAN: Los Carboncitos
3757 Pecos St.

If you're a gringo, sometimes you might be the only one not ordering in Spanish in this place. But Los Carbonzitos is a cozy, no-frills taqueria that welcomes everyone.
Denver's Mexican-Americans swear it serves up the most authentic dishes in the city, a city that's known for its Mexican food! Take a native of Mexico City and they'll tell you that Los Carboncitos represents the food of their city very well.
You can view the chefs cooking right behind the counter, and slicing the meat right off the gyro-like spinners, whisking the plates out assembly-line style while you sip on a horchata, enveloped in the smells of the grill.
What to order: Los Carboncitos are known for their signature dishes called "Huaraches", a full plate that resembles its namesake, a long Mexican sandal. You can't go wrong with one. Another good choice is the Hawaiian taco plate is fantastic.....you will need to ask for more tortillas because you will for sure polish off more than 7 or so.
