Great tequila selection, delicious margaritas. Elevated Mexican food!
Great service, especially during Covid. The food was excellent, as always.
Love the bacon guacamole! Their chips are always fresh tasting as well. One of my favorite things about quality mexican restaurants.
Dear DonovanN, We really appreciate the positive review and we are thrilled that our food was the best part of your experience. That is one of my favorite dishes as well! I hope you will come back and see us again soon!
Chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday and not to be a snob but I wasn't impressed. The food was good, waiter was nice, restaurant itself was nice but nothing to make me want to go back. It was just another restaurant in another town.
Chicken enchiladas and adobo tacos were great! Highly suggest the bacon guac to change things up. House margaritas were refreshing. Great service and calm environment. Casual dining or a night out.
Dear ErinC, We truly have the best guests! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a positive review and sharing your experience with us. I'm so glad you enjoyed the service and food. The bacon guac is my favorite too! We hope to serve you again soon!

Dear Nedley, Thank you for the five-star review! Our team is always striving to create a phenomenal experience for our guests. Reviews like this reassure us that we are doing just that. So glad you enjoyed our NYE menu! Cheers!
Service was slow. Our food was cold when it arrived. It had probably been sitting for a while. We asked for hot food. When it arrived they gave it to another table. We had to wait for our meal three times. While the waitress apologized, she did nothing to make our experience better. It is not a cheap restaurant. I am not sure I will return.
Nice employees & service. We ordered the $12 guacamole & it was smaller than my palm. The queso was just a chunk of melted cheese, about four big spoonfuls, was very difficult to serve & eat unless you just eat the cheese by itself. It was pricey for the portion size too. Limited menu but food was good. Again, entrees were more $ than they should’ve been. Rooftop patio was pretty loud.
Thanks very much for your balanced and fair review. I'm glad you felt the service was done well. It is something we've worked hard on and we're pleased our efforts resonated with you. I also want to thank you for your feedback and criticisms. We've taken your thoughts to heart and we're planning on making some internal changes based on your comments. Hope to serve you again soon.
The guacamole is just as amazing as when I first went there years ago. I didn’t even look at the menu as I asked the server her favorite taco dish and steak tacos it was. Yum!!!

I accidentally made a reservation for the wrong date but they were awesome enough to squeeze my party of 5 in for dinner. Great service from start to finish. I’ll be coming back for brunch soon!
Great all around!
We really appreciate your positive words and good vibes. We are definitely looking forward to your next visit. Cheers!

All things considered (with outdoor/tented dining in the winter) the food and service were great! Get out and support your local restaurants during this time if you can.

We are so thankful to Tamayo for having a rooftop where we could dine during the shut downs of COVID! And the food is amazing!
Very good restaurant. Good job with social distancing. Nice patio on the roof. The food is VERY good! Our waitress was very nice, friendly, and checked on us frequently.

You have to give it to Chef Richard Sandoval to keep the quality up during these trying times. The menu is paired down a bit, but the quality remains. The staff is working so hard to make everything work just right, and the tequila is always a hit. Let's keep this one alive and thriving so we can go back when the pandemic has passed.
Dear Douglas, Wow! Thank you so much for the kind words and five-star review!

Teeny tacos, but very tasty. Good deal for happy hour. Nice patio seating upstairs. Great Margs!
Dear Shannon, Thank you for telling us about your recent visit to Tamayo Restaurant. We strive to create a fun and tasty happy hour experience for everyone! We really appreciate your candid feedback on our food and your overall dining experience. We hope to see you at the restaurant again soon.
The view on the roof top was great. Was looking forward to more choices on the bottomless brunch. Also, being able to offer a bottomless drink package by itself would of been great considering I would of purchased another meal besides brunch. I was also especting a medium tier tequila which the bottomless drinks. Overall it was a decent meal with a great view.
Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. We are always looking to improve our experience and appreciate the feedback on our brunch menu. At this time we are at a reduced seating capacity due to COVID-19 and in turn have to reduce our menu offerings to support this new model. We look forward to restrictions being lifted and the opportunity to serve our full menu once again in the near future. Thanks again for supporting Tamayo during this challenging time for the restaurant industry. We hope to welcome you back again.
The food was not very good. There were no bold flavors, none of the food, flavor-wise, seemed to match the description on the menu. We actually ended up only getting one entree after ordering the guacamole because it simply didn’t impress us.
I had not been there in a few years. I will be going more often. Best tortilla soup EVER!!!!!!
Thank you so much for 5-star review. The tortilla soup is one of my favorites too! We are so pleased that we could offer such an enjoyable dining experience for you and we hope to see you again soon.
Lovely outdoor dining with musicians on the street. Food is fresh and delicious. We had chicken enchiladas and mahi mahi tacos. Great stuff!
We were in town for just 36 hours and went there twice! Brunch was great, as was lunch. CJ, our server, was attentive, nice, fun and personable. Such a great time. Will definitely return when back in Denver!
Let me start by saying, Tamayo’s is my favorite restaurant in Denver. We routinely visit Richard Sandoval restaurants because of his amazing restaurants. We will continue to do so.
We made reservations weeks ahead for my Birthday. When we arrived, they took us upstairs and on the roof for our seating. It was so cold. Even though it was covered, everyone had jackets on while they were eating. We told them we were not interested in sitting on the roof as it was way too cold. They said that was all they had. I asked how it is possible that we made reservations that far ahead and we got stuck on the roof? If that is the case, you should be made aware when you accept the reservations.
We informed them we would prefer to dine somewhere else rather than eat in the cold on the roof. They accommodated us but we were told very clearly that they were making an exception from their Covid precautions. They proceeded to sit us at a table that was at least 10 feet from any other nearby table. Very interesting...
Waiter was great, food was good. Only bad thing which I think was a random flook was a mouse was running around and had to be caught by a staff member. (We sat outside on the patio)
Wonderful service and great food. A value for an exquisite meal.
An out of town friend visited and wanted something he couldn’t easily get in Kansas. He loved it.
Tamayo has impressed me every time I’ve visited.
Food was really great, looked great and tasted great and the Margarita was excellent.
Delicious, interesting Latin food. The bacon guacamole is heavenly, with fresh cilantro, onions and cotilla cheese. Almost a meal in itself! Be sure to try some of their fresh fruit purees to mix with a cocktail. I adore mangoes, but most drinks use an icky syrup that tastes nothing like the real thing. I had a mango margarita and it was extremely good. The menu is small, and I can imagine that during non-COVID times, the place would be a bit on the loud side if filled to capacity. Those are my only critiques...give this place a try for sure!
The hostess was ambivalent when we arrived and didn’t even ask my name for our reservation. The food was lukewarm when it arrived, and
Great service and good food but somewhat overpriced.
Menu selection was limited because of Covid. For lunch, I selected the chicken enchiladas which were stuffed with shredded chicken with no flavor at all. The texture was not tendered and tasted like boiled chicken. Just thanks to the green sauce, I could get some flavor.
Definitely, I was disappointed with my meal selection.
Really tasty food and fun atmosphere. Service was great. Great place for a date night or hang out with friends! The taco boards are to die for.
We went for my bday and they had live jazz outside in the square. Great food never disappoints. The service is always great as well. They even made us alcohol free margaritas and they were amazing!
