    Carnitas
    Richard M.

    I have this affinity for small family Mexican Restaurants. Los Jimadores fits that bill. Firstly, the waitress we had was very friendly and delightful. When I asked her for opinion for the Birria tacos vs. the Sonoran Tacos, she said I picked to the two favorite things not the menu and she couldn't decide. But I am getting ahead of myself. Firstly, the chips and salsa. They really set the mood for the meal, although not having them is something I can live with if the meal is extraordinary. Los Jimadores has chips and salsa - and they add a kicker. Mexican slaw. A vinegar based slaw with a spicy kick. This was one of the better ones I had. The salsa was good and chunky, but we agreed it was a little sweet. The chips are the flaky crispy kind. We also ordered the house margarita. I was prepared to be disappointed because their drink menu was filled with those sugary 'tropical' drinks that were more popular 15 years ago. Their tequila menu is a bit lacking. But the house margarita was good, not too sweet and had that familiar feeling. I decided on the Sonoran Tacos. They had strip steak, a roasted Anaheim Pepper and a grilled Mexican cheese. They also came with a very good, very spicy salsa. The roasted peppers and the salsa made this dish. My wife had the carnitas, because she has been on a carnitas kick as of late. They were moist and crispy on the outside with a good green chili on top. If I had to find fault, it would the salsa with the chips and the tequila selection. The salsa with the Sonoran Tacos was fabulous - but I get that there is probably a cost difference. And the menu is a bit long. But if I am in the area, I will be back. And I will order the Birria Tacos. They looked really good being brought to a table next to ours.

    Friends took us to Los Jimadores this past Sunday and wasn't disappointed. Some people might call this place a hole in the wall, but if it is the food is still very good. If you're looking for something fancy this isn't it. A good meal is what you get here. The shrimp tacos were really good on homemade flour tortillas. My dining companions all took their meals home since it was so much food on the plate. The meals were packed with flavor. The margaritas were really good and if you have two make sure you have a driver that's not drinking. My final comment is regarding the service. Pamela (Pam) was our waitress. She alone is a reason to come to Los Jimadores. She's a super waitress and full of sass in a good way!

    Menu

    The second I walked in the door I knew this was the place to be! The restaurant was very busy for being so early in the evening. We were quickly greeted by a very friendly hostess, and we were seated promptly. Our waitress was very attentive, and she always had a smile on her face. Now, for the food part... The menu reads like a novel; it has absolutely everything imaginable. Fresh tortilla chips, salsa, and a Mexican slaw were placed on the table. We ordered house margaritas which were on point, and they were huge! The main courses were beyond plentiful and exploded with flavor. There were three of us dining, and we ordered: chicken quesadilla, chile relleno, platter, and carnitas platter. UNREAL! Can't wait to return!!!

    Delicious food with generous portions. Service was amazing. Be sure to try the Sopapillas! Fluffy light perfection. It was a wonderful birthday party!

    Enchilada and soft taco

    First time at this place and it was pretty empty for a Friday night I understand being understaffed and being busy but they weren't so I was confused a little on why our service was slow the waitress seemed kinda annoyed taking our order. The food on the other hand was delicious props to the cook! The water was nasty. But the pepino margarita I got was good my friend got a mojito and it was good as well!

    I found this place by driving around the area couple of times and was blown how much traffic it gets. Finally decided to try it myself to see what it was about and was HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED. To start my fiancé and I wanted a beer but what we wanted they were out. The food was not appetizing at all, the rice looked like it was reheated, beans were dry and unsalted. The meat (shredded beef) was nothing but fat. I don't know what the hype is but this place is disgusting. My fiancé ordered ceviche, the shrimp had pieces of peel on it and he had to squeeze his own lime on it and seasoning on it (s&p). Don't let the 5+ reviews and traffic fool you.

    Queso

    I don't leave reviews, however when I sit down to dinner and find rodent droppings on the table you can be damn sure there will be a review. The chips were stale, the salsa was flavorless, the queso was literally melted string cheese, the food was bland and DRIPPING with oil. Definitely not worth the $75. I only gave 1 star because it won't let me give no stars. People were nice, food was horrible.

The brown sugar boba was disgusting, it was far from your typical brown sugar boba from any boba shop. That stuff was straight up honey and it was sooo strong. My son go to drink is brown sugar boba at all boba shops and the look on his face was just full of sadness. We tried to add more milk to make the drink better but that drink was not fixable. It was the worse brown sugar boba ever. I do not recommend it at all, unless you like to drink pure honey. (Sad thing is, my son absolutely hate honey, so again, just huge disappointment for him) Straight waste of $$$$$ into the trash. I also ordered the passion fruit tea with no ice, there was ice and zero passion fruit flavor, such a bummer. Service was a little nonexistent but the vibe of the shop was cool! There are so many boba shops in Denver area to try out and I'm not in a hurry to go back to this one unless someone I'm with is wanting to go, when I do return, I would love to try the taro cream puff or Vietnamese coffee.

    Given the lack of bubbletea in this area, it was nice to see something new here, for that I give it…read morecredit. Other than that, this is a very average bubbletea. That is usually the case with chain spots, but some can be really good (Teahee/Shiba Boba, for instance) Happy Lemon is a very run-of-the-mill place and may be good if you're introducing someone to these kinds of drinks for the first time. I found the drinks to be on the mild side in terms of flavor, more watered down tea taste than anything else. The bubbles seemed small and were also just okay. The inside is cute, there are plenty of places to sit down and they have some games you can play. It'd be a nice family outing or a place to bring kids. Parking can be kind of tricky when its busy, but I had no issues finding a spot out front. Staff and service were quick and friendly. Overall, I think I would only return here if I was really in the mood for bubble tea and already in the area shopping.

Known for their irreverent style and neon-pink boxes, the Denver Airport location manages to keep the "Keep Weird" spirit alive. The Flavor Lineup: We dived into a curated selection of their signature yeast and cake doughnuts. Here is the breakdown: * The Voodoo Doll: The iconic signature. Beyond the playful aesthetics, the chocolate frosting is rich, and the raspberry jelly filling provides a sharp, tart contrast that cuts through the sweetness perfectly. * Banana Cream Pie: This was a standout. The filling is smooth without being overly synthetic, mimicking the comfort of a classic diner pie. It's a heavy hitter, so come hungry. * Mango Cream: A refreshing tropical twist. The mango flavor is bright and punchy--a nice departure from the more traditional chocolate-heavy options. * Strawberry Pop-Tart: This is pure nostalgia. The crunch of the crumbled pastry on top adds a fantastic textural element to the soft, pillowy dough. The Experience: The staff handles the high-volume airport rush with impressive speed, and the doughnuts tasted remarkably fresh--not "reheated" or stale, which can be a risk in transit hubs. While the line can look intimidating, it moves quickly, and the pink box is basically the ultimate status symbol at the gate.

    Location: Voodoo Doughnuts Airport Date: July 1st, 2026…read more Service: Take out This month I have the opportunity of stopping at voodoo donuts located on the third floor at the Denver Colorado airport and concourse b. I was in concourse A and to get to concourse b I had to take two trains I think to get to it. My connecting flight was in carquest b anyway so that was convenient for me however I still have to go to the third floor the food court that's where voodoo don't us is located in the corner nearby United Club lounge entrance. I purchased for my mom for a dozen of the classic voodoo donuts they have various options but if you get a dozen it's either the classic or it's the special kind of donuts. And I was able to pick up some merch as well I got a oversized sweatshirt luckily I already wear oversized sweatshirt. They do honor military discounts which was super helpful I totally appreciated that. We ate the donuts and I still have their shirt My favorite color pink now to add to my collection and it's super comfy too super soft. My family and I we love voodoo donuts definitely you should check them out if you are a donut fan. Check out the photos attached to this review.
