Enjoyed this first visit to this Downtown Arvada location, as it nicely combined good food, a great location, and superb customer service. Our group gravitate to their Bowl options, and I thoroughly enjoted their Tinga Bowl. Also liked their Mexican Street Corn. Like they have Coca-Cola products! Excellent service from Jack, our server. Great decor, liked the overall ambience. Only one comment: a member of our party requested a non-diabetic sweetener, and it was not available. Let's fix that in the future. read more

We live near here but have never gone because prices seem high when there are so many great and cheaper places around. My partner and I decided to give it a try tonight finally for happy hour... and it is average. The margarita was okay, the queso was average and a small serving. I am super glad that we came during happy hour or I would be upset. The service was very kind, the atmosphere was neat but there are better places for Mexican downtown. read more

Pretty good food. The shrimp enchilada with the green sauce was really good. Ambiance was fun with the arcade games for kids and so aesthetic for meeting people. Service was nothing special read more

I stopped into this Mexican restaurant right in the heart of Old Town Arvada -- such a cute area with tons of small shops, fairs, and local restaurants. I chose to sit in the bar area and was seated immediately, even on a Saturday afternoon, which was nice. The restaurant itself is super cute with lots of fun photo-op spots. I ordered one carnitas taco. It wasn't bad at all, but it didn't quite give me that "wow" factor either -- just decent. For my drink, I stuck with water. The staff, however, were very friendly and welcoming, which I always appreciate. Overall, it's a charming spot with a great vibe, and while the food didn't blow me away this time, the atmosphere and service make it worth checking out. read more

Off the streets in Old Town Arvada comes a delightful surprise: Enter into Lady Nomada and be transported by the walls filled with ethnic art; deliciously Latin/South American - Chef designed edible, in short Gastronomic Delights! Gracious Rebecca greeted both Aspen and my self: They check for the best booth to seat us. When entering Lady Nomada, I heard laughing and joyous banter; the restaurant was almost filled including the bar. Walking through the restaurant is beautifully transporting to South America, and what awaits is more than what most would expect. Refined dinning and service. The Art work is beyond phenomenal, particularly and proudly displayed are the Baja surfboards which were the last boards made either by Jim Drake and/or Hoyle Schweitzer. And then the FOOD!!! Oh how hard it is to choose from the menu and I walked in timely for the lunch specials, being stated by Rebecca and Malea my waitress! Of course I must order the "Creamed Corn" such a delight and filling unto its self. From the lunch special I had Baja Fish, which offers 2 items for and easy price of $13.00, instead we doubled up on the fish tacos, there is just so much GREAT FOOD my tummy can absorb. Even Aspen loved the Cod, perfectly cook to tender moist consistency, with a private cream sauce (chef secrets), flawlessly adding "Cilantro Lime fluffy Rice!" Which I inhaled!!! I mentioned to Malea, if it were not so inappropriate, I would have licked the plate and bowl!! There are sister Restaurants created by Gastamo Group: Park Burger, Perdida, Homegrown Tap & Dough, and Birdcall. Don't be shy, enjoy with friends, never disappointed! read more

Neighbors recommended Lady Nomada and we were not disappointed. I lived in SoCal for 38 years and Nomada's Baja fish taco is as good as any I've ever had. The carnitas rocks equally hard and can't wait to try their grilled fish tacos. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was pleasant. Definitely adding this local gem to the dining rotation, looking forward to the next visit! read more

Wow what a treat, almost a hidden gem. We came on the train from downtown to meet family for dinner. Wanted something different and a Yelp search revealed Lady Nomada. The pics said it all!! We were seated quickly for a Sunday at 5:30. Everything we had was delicious and worth a return trip. Our server was a hoot too. She was great with recommendations that worked out well for each of us. Started with drinks and the chips queso, salsa guacamole trio. That queso was crazy good!! The Paloma, cucumber and house margs were yummy. The Baja shrimp enchiladas were so perfect. Creamy jalapeño sauce. Lots of perfectly seasoned shrimp with a little salad and rice. The enchiladas, quesadilla and combo platters were all just what we needed. The restaurant setting is well done and provides a rich background to enjoy great food and friends. Definitely a repeat. Wish they were downtown so we could go often. Lots of seating inside and out and groups of different sizes can get accommodated. read more

The cutest, vibiest, coolest spot in Arvada to dine. The interior is so bright and inviting. The seating is comfortable and fun. The art is beautiful and the staff are awesome! The food is delicious and I love a good lunch special/deal. The only downside I would say is that ordering a la carte is gonna cost ya. My sister isn't a huge fan of Mexican food and doesn't eat rice and beans. So she just ordered 3 birria tacos, which were priced pretty high and costed more than my full plate with all the goods. She did like the tacos though! read more

Great place to get a couple margs and tacos during their happy hour! The beach vibes is a nice change up from most traditional taquerias and reminds me of vacation and time spent in FL. Ingredients have always been fresh and staff are very friendly! 5 stars!! read more

Wow! I cannot sing the praises of the Baja fish tacos enough! They were crispy, hot, and exactly what you'd want when biting into a fried fish taco! Lady Nomada is the place to be. I met my friend for her birthday & found the atmosphere and service to be impeccable as well. It feels bright, airy, and welcoming. A great spot to meet up and enjoy a fresh, tasty meal with loved ones. I'll definitely be back. read more

My boyfriend and I both experienced throwing up and a spinning feeling after we ate here. About 1 hour after we left we started having symptoms. The waitstaff was fine, the decor was great but the food was a little tasteless, and then obviously we got super sick. We still feel sick 5 hours later. read more

Decor: beautiful, fun, whimsical. Food: very mild compared to traditional Mexican, just "okay". Drinks: They used cheaper tequila. my body cannot handle cheap tequila, but higher end stuff is just fine. how can I tell? I was sweating tequila the next day after one margarita. Quality tequila doesn't mess me up like that. Pricing: for the quality of food, not great. they also no longer do taco tuesday. Service: staff was lovely, though I wish they were more accommodating to my vegetarian guest. The refried beans are made with animal fat, so it is not vegetarian as advertised. read more

I love having a bunch of great places in walking distance of my house. Lady Nomada is one of those places! - Food: this is the first place I ever tried birria tacos and I was HOOKED.

Walking around downtown Arvada on a Sunday afternoon and decided to stop in for a quick drink and pick me up. The place wasn't busy and we sat at the bar, such a cute ambiance and the decor was on point, lots of props and really looks like effort was put in to making it look cute. I wanted to customize one of the menu cocktails but many of them are pre-batched so i tried the elderflower one instead and it was honestly delicious as is. They also gave us free chips and yummy salsa while we had our cocktails, this place has lots of locations now so now i will try others. Thanks ! read more

The red salsa is now much spicier and far less addictive (what happened to the flavor???) and the potato flautas are sweet... Why are they sweet?? The beer list has gone downhill again, and many of the bar employees are nonattentive and not very welcoming. I'm hoping this trend reverses soon! I REALLY loved the red salsa, it reminded me of AZ Mexican food. Please bring back the original recipe!! :( read more

Excellent authentic Mexican food. No Tex-Mex to be found here. Clean well maintained space with good service. Only thing I missed was a legit house made hot sauce. Their bottled choices were very weak : ) read more

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. What is not to like? My teenage son ordered the quesadilla. He is a bit of a quesadilla connoisseur and says that Lady Nomada has the best chicken quesadilla he has ever had. So, take that as a big compliment. The fajitas were excellent. Parking is rough. The street is pedestrian traffic only, so you will walk a block or two to get inside. But, it is worth it. Take advantage and check out some of the shops along the way. I will be back. read more

I had heard so many good things about Lady Nomada and they did not disappoint. The inside was very well decorated and it felt like I was stepping into a high end taco place. I highly recommend getting Marg's there with the barria tacos. Service was as you'd expect, however, our waitress explained everything as this was the first time we had been there. They have many locations but the one in Arvada is great esp where it's located in Old Town. read more

This is in downtown Arvada and it was such a cute place! Their non alcoholic drinks were amazing so I'm sure their cocktails are perfection! I got the coco no loco and I could drink that all day long. It was so refreshing and I felt like I was in a Caribbean vacation! We split the Birria tacos and the fish tacos and wow. The fish tacos were exceptional. these are the best ones I have had in this whole state and rival fish tacos in California (i am shocked to even say this). The Birria was good but nothing compared to fish tacos! The dip trip was also delicious. The fire roasted salsa was spicy but so yummy! The queso was also delicious (without the hot sauce) and the guacamole tasted so fresh! I normally don't even bother talking about the beans and rice but don't skip that!! Definitely get the meal with it added because they were so good! I wish I had one of these locations closer to my house! read more

Did not have any food here only came in for a beverage. Upon looking at customers food it all looked great as well as the alcoholic drinks. The bartender was pleasant and chatted up a bit about the restaurant and town. The ambiance is fun and bright. They also have a section to take quick boomerang videos. read more

Horrible service we waited for hour I half some reservation did not show up we were still waiting. Then had to go and sit at the bar and they had free tables. They were waiting for the people who set reservations. Food was not authentic Mexican food not good. I will not go back. read more

Love the convenience of it being so close to the light rail. The food was hot and fresh and had good quality meats and flavor , cooked well. They were very good at accommodating Ryan's allergy needs too. It is a little pricey for the product and the seats were really small -Ryan is a tall guy and he had to stick his legs out the side of the booth. And my legs were scrunched up too and I'm not tall. The overall vibe is chill and clean - the esthetic is like if a restaurant wanted to look like a Holister in the early 2000s. We had excellent service the whole time and they were very attentive to us checking in. Ryan loved his margarita ! read more

One of my fav Lat Am restaurants in all of Denver. Great vibe...the decor, music and service are spot on. Food is delicious. I usually stick with the guac and chips ( their Salsa is AMAZING!!!) and their trio of tacos. What makes their tacos unique is each different protein is served on a different tortilla with different sauces and toppings.....each is very unique. I could eat here easily twice a week every week. read more

Went during their happy hour 3-5 pm Monday through Friday and was very pleased with the drink selection! They are strong and favorable. The service was great and attentive. We got the queso and nachos which do not come with meat but they are loaded and got me full for being a happy hour item. We mostly came because of the ambiance! It is the perfect spot for a girls night out or a group of friends. Very aesthetic and in downtown Arvada. We made a reservation but it was pretty empty walking in at 3. However, around 5 pm it started getting packed and recommend making one! read more

Ambiance inside gives off Tulum vibes. Cute boho beige decor, super spacious interior with cute benches booths and seating. The lunch menu is so reasonably priced- two tacos of your choice with rice and beans for just $10.99 practically a steal in this economy. The fish taco is crispy and crunchy and the birria taco is super solid, tender meat very yummy loved the pickled red onions sprinkled on top! The red salsa is flavorful. Whole meal was excellent and I also really loved the carne asada fries as a big sharing appetizer for the table, it's enough for four people and the loaded guac, carne and perfectly crispy fries make for a great combo! read more

The food was expensive and gross. The atmosphere was stuck up and the food was absolutely terrible. If you want to pay a lot for subpar food it is the place for you. read more

To be fair, the service and atmosphere are excellent and the flavors are top notch. Lunch menu had nice options for reasonable price. I had a birria taco, chicken tinga taco, rice and beans for $13. Aside from serving the marinated onions on the outside of the birria taco, which just made it messy and confusing, the food was delicious. They even manage to make black beans taste good, which to me is a real feat of culinary magic. So why is this a two star review and not a five star review? Well let's discuss a really basic concept that frankly is the single most important feature of a Mexican restaurant to me. They bring your first "round"of chips and salsa for free. Great! Bare minimum for any decent Mexican restaurant in America. The truth is, it's more like a bowl of chips and a thimble of salsa. More like a ramekin I guess, although it feels like a thimble. When you finish the salsa, which is killer btw, with most of your chips left sitting there you'll have to pay $4 for another thimble of salsa. Good grief. Another flaw is that the lunch menu lists "happy hour" drink prices on it, even though they aren't party of the lunch menu. So you look at the lunch menu and think you're margarita is $6 as shown until they charge you $9 and say oh that's happy hour pricing even though it's on the lunch menu. Such a great place that almost nails it, but comes up woefully short at such simple failure points. It's a little tragic. As much as I like it here there are like four other options in Old Towne for Mexican with a better sense of what people enjoy about going out for Mexican. I'll take my regular haunt, Cochino Taco, any day. They don't poke me in the eye and give me a noogie while smiling to my face. read more

Definitely a great place for a meal though and I'll be back. read more

4.5 stars. This is the first Olde Town Arvada restaurant I've visited more than once, which is a huge win. DELICIOUS cocktails (especially their margaritas) and fresh food. At least come here for the Carne Asada Fries, topped with guacamole, crema, pickled onion, and cilantro. Those fill me up every time, even though it's on the appetizer menu. So colorful and flavorful. My partner and I have had a few other things, all tasty. Loved the Birria Taco and Mini Chile Relleno (while they're hot) and want to keep trying more items off their menu. Other random thoughts: Parking isn't too bad. I love all their décor! Super cute and well thought-out. Great spot for a date night or group outings. Still haven't sat at their bar yet, miraculously! read more

I thought this place looked cool. Nice vibe, nicely decorated and relaxed. I decided to come in and have a drink while I waited for the wife (shopping). Sat at the bar while several servers walked by. It looked like they were preparing drinks for people in the dining room. No real bartender on duty. I said hello and they said hello back but couldn't get anyone to wait on me. Ten minutes went by, the wife walked in and finally a girl came to ask what I would like. I kinda shrugged, said "I'm good" and have a nice evening. Then I left. LOL. Oh well. Perhaps another time. read more

One my favorite destinations down south (and I mean pretty far down south) is Todo Santos, Mexico. It's super chill Baja vibe is muy bueno! The beaches, the margs and the food is hard to beat. But if I'm looking for a quick little taste of that magic, I never miss a chance to meet a buddy of mine at Lady Nomada. For starters, I truly LOVE the space. Great bar seats, lounge-style seating, tables, booths... this place has it all. I am instantly transported back to my beloved Baja with its beachy interior design. My favorite cocktail is the Cali Caliente Margarita... the balance of the cool cucumber and chili-rubbed rim is "sub-lime." You see what I did there! ;-) And while I'll not going to say that the Baja Fish Tacos are quite as good as my all time favorite at Pacifica Fish Market in Todo Santos, the Lady Nomada version is VERY good indeed with their crispy fish, serrano tartar & classic slaw. Quatro stars for me, but I almost think I'd give it 4.5 when I really missing the real thing. read more

I went here to get a drink and small bites with my girl right after work at 3 pm. It wasn't busy and happy hour was going on. I thought the pricing was great. The frozen coconut margarita was to die for. I still randomly dream about it. It was perfectly boozy and frozen and stayed frozen the right amount the entire time I sipped it. The tacos were small in portion but man do they pack a punch in flavor! I love the decor of boho Mexican rattan vibes with a whole lot of color. It's upscale compared to most other Tex Mex type places. They're doing something different and for that, I commend them. read more
