    Website states happy hour is 3-6, Fri thru Sunday, but we came at 3:15 on a Saturday and were told that happy hour did not start until 4:00.
    Monica H.

    This was my favorite taco place and we've been regulars for years. However, there have been some bumps since the new owners have taken over. Most recently, we visited on a Saturday for happy hour, which is from 3-6 (according to their website) however, when we ordered, we were told that happy hour did not start until 4:00. When I showed the server the website, she checked with the manager and still came back and said yeah, we just haven't updated the website yet. We unexpectedly got free churos at the end of our visit, but I'd have rather had them honor their website...I wasn't interested in dessert. Also, you can no longer order just one quesaburria taco - you must order them as a set of 3. This is really disappointing. In addition, the food has been a little 'off' the last few times we have visited. For example, my husbands carnitas were very dry and the onion topping was different than usual. Still, this is one of my favorite places to eat but I am starting to wonder if it's worth it to keep coming back and be disappointed more often than not.

    I love tacos, I love tequila, and I love whiskey--so obviously I had to visit Tacos, Tequila & Whiskey in the Highlands. Spoiler alert: I love them now too. What I tried: Basically... the whole menu, but highlights included: Carnitas: Crispy roasted pork perfection. Cordero: Braised lamb with esquite--an elite combo. Queso Fundido: Made with tequila and chorizo, absolutely unreal. Hibiscus Margarita: My favorite sip of the night. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe? Fun.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food? Fire. The service? Fantastic. The prices? Super fair for what you get. Add this spot to your Denver rotation ASAP.

    Hongos, birria, fried chicken tacos

    My tacos and tequila crew (yes, I'm being serious!) came by on a Friday afternoon to check out the spot for the last chunk of happy hour. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoor patio was bumping but indoors was quite quiet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was lovely and someone always seemed to be around for water refills which is an A+ in my book. We heard great things about the queso and had to give it a try - did not disappoint! Super cheesy and delicious. Decent HH deals on margs but was bummed no taco deals. Margs were fine but nothing to call home about; the spicy one didn't have much of a kick. For tacos, I went with the hongos, birria, and fried chicken. Tortillas were great quality and tacos were very filling with yummy flavor. The massive chunk of fried chicken was sweet as a portion size, though very difficult to eat and would have liked to see it cut at least in half. On the whole, a really solid spot to grab some tacos and tequila - would not be upset to return by any means.

    Nachos
    Will S.

    Think I've reviewed it before, but whatever. This place is insanely good and has a great HH menu too! Their tacos on hh are "sliders" and they're sooooo good. The nachos on happy hour were also super good, haven't had these before but the cheese was layered so well and every chip had a delicious bite - the Key to good nachos! The sliders were reaaaaaalllyyyy good. Make sure you get the birria slider, it's to die for! Service is always great and quick here! I get the purist margaritas, it's super super fresh and not too sweet at all! Love it!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Some of the best tacos I've had in Denver and a great atmosphere![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outdoor dining area was well set up and the service was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had six different tacos and all were amazing, the carnitas and quesabirria were incredible. Will absolutely be going back.

    Been curious about this place for awhile and I'm so glad we stopped to try! We tried the nachos that were on the happy hour menu and there were layers of flavors while the nachos were actually super crispy and not stale at all! We also tried the tacos and every single one I tried were so tasty!! I can't remember the name but the one with a fatty pork meat was my favorite. Everything melts in your mouth!! Wonderful place. Would love to try stuff from their brunch menu and non-taco items (which might be hard cuz now that I know the taste it'll be too tempting)

    Carnitas and black beans
    Jennifer D.

    So this came as a pleasant surprise! When traveling through the airport in Denver, and you have a layover, we have all aimlessly looked for a place to either have a snack, lunch or dinner. I took a gamble on this place. This place did not disappoint. I had the Carnitas taco and black beans, was seriously hesitant because there is no way you're going to get good tacos in an airport. Do yourself a favor and try this place. If you're ever lucky to be in terminal A- it's down at the end of the terminal around A18. I didn't wanna commit on a combo so I just got one taco and a side of black beans, that was $10! So now I'm thinking I should've got the two tacos combo, lol. Anyways, give this place a try it was truly delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It may be a bit confusing because there is a bar restaurant right next-door to it so soon as you pass the bar, you'll see the restaurant on the other side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You're welcome!

    Queso
    Marissa F.

    We went last weekend with our family and had tacos, queso, and margs. Our server was super nice. The watermelon margarita sounded really good on the board but I feel like flavor wise it fell a little flat and the seasoning on the rim was weird. It wasn't just tajin, it was like tajin, salt, oregano and something else. It was strange. We got the chorizo queso with garlic to share for the table. It came out hot and bubbly. It was probably my favorite part of the meal. It was melty, it was yummy, it was crispy from the little cast iron pan and the garlic addition was perfect. It had a little heat but not bad. Everyone at the table got the queso a la plancha taco and I was disappointed with this one. It came in two corn tortillas and it's supposed to be just like fried cheese on the taco topped with guac and salsa. There was minimal fried cheese and SO much guac. I had a shrimp taco which felt flavorless and an asada taco which felt overfilled. My husband loved the birria. I had a bite and it was delicious!!

    Delicious burrito and coffee

    Honestly the most amazing people. I stopped by a few minutes after 11. They still went out of their way to make me food and accommodate me. Amazing food, amazing people! Highly recommend! I'm really lost for words with their kindness! Thank you so much

My friend and I arrived with laptops and left them closed. The whole place has an Elle Woods sleepover energy: pink-adjacent, unapologetically cozy, a little magical. We enjoyed our treats, caught up and people watched. And yes these are treats. There may be alcohol at other times; we were just there for coffee and tea, and the specials leaned floral. I had something built around orange blossom that drifted between citrus and honeysuckle, delicate enough to feel like a mood rather than a flavor. Lovely, if not exactly life-changing. But that's the point: Hello Darling pulls you in with its aesthetic and keeps you with its comfy, cozy seats. Definitely equally suited to a solo work session or a two-hour gossip spiral that was supposed to be a work session! Come for the drinks, stay because you forgot you had somewhere else to be.

We started with what might be one of the best bruschetta apps: grilled, charred bread topped with blistered heirloom tomatoes (those vibrant yellow and red ones!), creamy burrata (or whipped ricotta-like cheese), fresh basil, and a gorgeous balsamic drizzle. The contrast of the smoky, crispy bread with the juicy, roasted tomatoes and that rich, peppery cheese was so fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend sharing this one! Frankie's cocktails were spot-on too. We went for the perfect pink marg with Tajín rims refreshing, citrusy (heavy on the lime), with just the right kick of spice from the rim. They were dangerously drinkable and paired beautifully with everything. If you're in Denver craving a mix of elevated American small plates, killer cocktails, and top-notch sandwiches in a cool setting, this place is a must-try.

For better and worse, it's a neighborhood bar at its core. The most shocking thing is how they transformed the space from the previous tenants. It has a beautiful open layout with nice furniture and design. The bartenders are generally friendly and prices are in line with similar cocktail bars in Denver. The few times I've been here I've been in a cocktail mood. Negronis and Old Fashioneds are made well and are slow sippers I enjoy. They do have a nice selection of wines that I'll have to try when it tickles my fancy. The only hiccups here for me are some really long wait times for drinks. They usually have two bartenders and sometimes it gets really backed up. No one is running the floor when I've been there bussing and wiping down tables. Though I understand with a location here it can go from being empty to completely slammed in a matter of minutes!
