    This was my first stop in Colorado and I was happy I found this spot. Not only the food was delicious by the service was excellent. We came in for lunch on a Friday and it was completely empty. We had a giant margarita which was delicious and strong. For lunch we had the carnitas, asada and birria tacos Everything was delicious and super flavorful. The consomé was also super rich . Definitely would recommend.

    We came here due to the close proximity to the airport, and not going to lie, the pictures and reviews do not steer you wrong. It's so incredibly hard to find phenomenal Mexican food in Colorado. La Perla Tapatia Mexican Restaurant is our new go to. I work often in Denver and they will definitely be seeing our faces again, and it's so nice that this restaurant has doordash. Service was on point, and the lovely lady who served us was extremely kind and very pretty!

    Smothered burrito and chilli fries. Salsa and chips very delicious.

    Ordered for the first time from Uber eats. I ordered the smothered burrito with shredded beef and chilli fries with steak and both were delicious. Generous amount of steak on the fries. Burrito is huge and again a generous amount of shredded beef inside. I also got a complementary side of chips and salsa. My only complaint is there are onions in the guacamole but that is a me problem. Gave me a coupon for in restaurants dining which was nice. Great first impression. Definitely ordering from here again.

    Found this place via yelp and let me just say, it was amazing. Food is fresh and amazing, we all enjoyed our food and drinks. Service was great as well. Next time I visit, I will be back!

    Chilaquiles verdes con Asada

    I order some chilaquiles with green chile and carne asada, to drink I got a Cantarito. Everything was really good. Service was great since I arrived, everyone was friendly and welcoming. Ambient is pretty chill.

    The carne asada was 10/10! Best Mexican food in the Denver area by FAR. We also got carnitas, which were great as well.

    Not busy the 2 times we've been there which is surprising because the food is good and the margaritas are the best.

The interior is dark with cozy bar stools and tables inside for sipping beer. Bruz Beers (a play on the Belgian Bruge) has an extensive menu. I got the bartender Tim's recommendation for my first beer. It was their dubbel, which is a dark abbey style ale. It was very tasty and not overly heavy. I wanted to try one more and am a big fan of sour beers. The grape saison (only available at Colfax location) is tart and fermented with Gewürztraminer wine grapes. It was also very good with the right of sour and not overly sweet. The bar has some snacks for purchase like popcorn and meat sticks. I guess they normally have food trucks offering different types of cuisine. There are bathrooms just outside the taproom shared with R&R head labs and another business. Just ask for the code as they require one for entry. The parking is challenging as the bar is just south of Colfax on York. You can find street parking.

Love the food truck pairings and the vibe is just divine. Bruz is also THE place that got us through the pandemic w social distancing, outdoor seating and great cleaning protocols. I think our lives would have been less colorful during that time if we didn't have Bruz. Thanks Ryan and team, so happy you're still in the neighborhood all these years later.

If you go to a bar, it's always a possibility there will be fighting. I am planning to go back soon. Highly recommend for an unpredictable good time.

While the Mild is flavorful and perfect if you want less heat. The food was so good I honestly forgot to take a picture before digging in! The Atmosphere: It's a classic sports bar vibe with a great soundtrack think 90s rock, R&B, and some Mexican hits. They have sports on most TVs, but they even had Barbie playing on one of the screens, so there's really something for everyone. It's a high-energy spot that's great for a night out. Customer Service: Usually, the servers here are phenomenal and super present. However, during our most recent evening visit, the service was a bit non-existent. Our waitress disappeared after the initial order, which made it hard to get a second round of wings. It seemed like a one-time fluke, though, as they are usually on top of it. The Price: The pricing is very fair for the quality and portion sizes. It's a great value for a casual meal, especially considering how consistent the food is. Parking: Pricing is very fair for the quality. We ordered a pound of wings, which is plenty for a good meal. A pound of their classic wings currently runs around $14.00 to $16.00. Which is a great value for how consistent the food is. Overall: Despite the service hiccup this time, we will definitely be back. We love the wings and the vibe too much to stay away. We'll just probably stick to our usual daytime visits!
