They have a big menu and the real stars are the seafood, it's in the name itself. If you love ceviche, this is definitely the spot to come to. I had the shrimp and octopus ceviche with a tostada, and one portion was more than enough for me and the servings are generous and easily shareable. If seafood isn't your thing, they still have plenty of solid options like chicken and steak. I've tried their steak tacos and they were actually really good, and the shrimp taco was great too. Overall, the place has a nice atmosphere and the service is friendly and attentive. Definitely worth checking out! read more

The food here is absolutely amazing! I have now been here 2 times and have had a great experience with the service and food. The ceviche does taste fresh and has great flavor. Now it can be a bit spicy for those who aren't used to spice. Personally it was perfect for me but I know my tolerance for spice is high. The ambiance is very different from lunch to dinner. During lunch time they do have music that's a bit on the louder side and the tvs are set to sports or news but there aren't as many people. Definitely think they have a huge menu but you can find a great variety in marisco dishes. Definitely will be coming back during future visits. read more

Mariscos Uruapan - Quesabirria - Mexican Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

We were in the area for a youth soccer tournament and wanted to get some good Mexican food. A Google search gave us Mariscos Uruapan and since the reviews looked good we decided to try it. They have a huge menu. We both had the quesobirria tacos because lately that is our obsession. They were excellent ! The shredded beef was tender and the consommé very flavorful. We got 3 tacos and they were served with limes, diced red onions, radishes and cucumbers. Honestly, we could've shared the meal. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant has the cutest decorations too. Overall, it was an excellent experience and meal. read more

We met up with friends before going to the Vintage Theater across the street for a play. Perfect location for this activity. There is plenty of parking and ample seating inside the restaurant. We were welcomed in and seated right away. Our server did a great job. I love Chile Rellenos. I got the soft relleno plate. It had rice, beans and a mixture of lettuce, tomato and radish. The chips and salsa were tasty. I think this will become a thing to meet for lunch before a matinee. read more

Mariscos Uruapan - Soft chile relleno - Mexican Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

The food is great, but the atmosphere is LOUD. I love grabbing lunch here before at show at Vintage Theater. But, it is a difficult place to have a conversation with your lunchmates. It's just a really loud atmosphere. There's always a Mariachi or really loud sports game on the TVs. The tacos Uruapan are great and are similar to fried tacos. Ask for the orange and green sauce. These go great with the tacos and aren't overly spicy. The carnitas are really good, too. Plan ahead and order another beverage or ask for the check before you need it. You may lose track of your server for a while. read more

Consistently great food. Great service. Tostada super, camerones a la diabla, and the best cantarito to be found around here

My last experience at a Mexican seafood place in CO was pretty bad, so when my mom suggested we have dinner "at the place next to Vintage Theater" I was not thrilled. I checked out their menu online and saw there were plenty of non-seafood options, however, so I agreed to give Mariscos Uruapan a try. By the way, when I saw "lots of options" on the menu, I mean that there menu is a novel the likes of which I have not seen since Cheesecake Factory. They serve everything here. That can also be a red flag as the chances of things being done well goes down as the menu page count goes up. I was pleasantly surprised on arrival. They have ample parking despite being in the heart of downtown Aurora and the restaurant was adorably decorated. I noticed almost all the patrons were speaking Spanish and that every food item that came out was MASSIVE and looked and smelled pretty darn good. My mom is a very light eater so we decided to split something, which ended up being a surf and turf molcajete. It was very good! The whole pinto beans cooked in lard were another highlight, as were the fresh scratch corn tortillas. Despite splitting one entree between two people, we couldnt get through the whole thing. Oh, and the "surf" part of the dish - grilled fish - was the best part. I am now excited to return for more Mexican seafood dishes! read more

I have been here a few times now. It is right across the street from the Vintage Theater and a great place to grab a meal before or after a show. It is not cheap, but you get a lot for your money. The beer is cold, and every dish I have tried is delicious. Service is solid. read more

Great food and amazing staff! I can't wait to come back. Had the fajita, which was perfect.

Portions are massive, definitely a place to share with friends or family. But everything was delicious! Service was fast and super friendly! They have a great patio and good sized bar. Still feels like a family restaurant though, not too big. When we were there, they had musicians walking around playing music, it was not too loud. They even had some outside vendors, walking around selling cookies, cheeses, and jerky from Mexico. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

Great food, and the portions are pretty big. The service I got from Rosy was just as wonderful as the food. I love the ammbience of this restaurant: the lighting,sound, decor,color,but most of all the Cleanliness of this place. read more

This place is definitely worth visiting! The horchata is definitely unique with a nice creamy but sweet (not too sweet) taste. The serive is very friendly always checking up if we needed anything and made sure we were happy with the meal. One of the best things about this restaurant is its variety of dishes! From molcajetes to steak dishes to sea food dishes , stuffed pineapples and chicken. It really is hard to just decide on one but it is very well served with just the right sides (not just beans and rice). read more

Mexican sushi was a new and delicious discovery for me. The pineapple ceviche was also great. Generous portions!

Tried 2 tacos and ordered their carnitas a lb. Even though was bit dissapointed lretty sure thei menu also saus comes with pico bit said only the plate. I didmt get spooms lr napkins. Their carnitas were superb as was expected as is estilo Michoacan; no gripes there. The hostess tried to be attentive but could improve. The tacos while good domt think i got any salsas sl had tl request some. Supposedly carnitas doesnt include any condiments but even for tacos hadn't gotten any. So there are several small degails could be better. read more

Across the street from The Vintage Theater so we had to give it a try. Food was tasty and the portions were generous. Huge menu with lots of seafood options. Lost a star for the way too loud music blasting in our ears. It didn't seem to bother other diners but we found it almost painful. Might try again and be certain to sit some distance from the sound system. read more

excelente servicio! muy buen ambient, buena música gracias a las señoritas del turno de la tarde Viri, Rossy!! y también a Josesito

Good food good service. It was a little pricey but worth it. The atmosphere was so friendly. They played Mexican music throughout the meal and even though I don't speak Spanish I thought it was great, Great food, seafood, Mexican, and American. I recommend this restaurant. read more

ok, as you know, i will try any place with "taco" in the name.... haha. Admittedly, this was right as restaurants are re-opening here in CO, so they were not at all busy. i got the carnitas tacos which were good, but needed a little salt and mr. handsome ordered cheese and onion enchiladas.... which said, according to the menu, they came topped with carrot and potato???? perhaps this is even more authentic than the tiny whole in the wall where i inadvertently ordered cactus - but was surprised at how good it was..... but anyway, the enchiladas had no sauce, which is not how we're used to eating them. they were tasty, but when you go in expecting something specific and it comes out not at all like you were hoping.... it's a bit disappointing. All of this to say.... the food was good, fresh, and fast....but not sure we would return. (too, because they focus on seafood which my man doesn't much care for). read more

I love tacos. I love tacos of all shapes and sizes. I love steak tacos, I love fish tacos, I love tacos al pastor. Tacos Uruapan has some of the best tacos I have ever had in Colorado. They make all of their crunchy tacos in house and they are something from heaven. When you order tacos, they bring out a selection of seven different salsas. They also offer a wide variety of other Mexican foods including carne asada, sea food and ice cream. The atmosphere is bright and festive and the service is on point. They have a bar to wet your appetite. This little restaurant is the best. I do not think you would be disappointed! read more

Omg!!! We went looking for tacos this morning and came across Tacos Uruapan! Super authentic and delicious - having been born and raised in LA, it reminds me of the tacos and salsas we used to get back home - and we've been looking for a place like this since we moved here 3 years ago! Additionally, it's way more than an amazing taco joint, it's authentic Mexican food and they have a full bar. Definitely going to become our new spot for authentic eats. read more
