Torchy's is always a good option for lunch or dinner. Food is always consistent, great options for tacos and every so often the taco of the month is a hit. Well this go around the double feature was a win for us. 6 tacos total, 2 sides and 2 drinks.. for $20. I think that's a winner in my book. The tacos were great. Tried one of each and was happy with them. Additionally the sides added a nice tough as well. Lastly the drinks, well just what you need to finish off a great meal. Service is always good. Definitely they get busy around dinner time but if you come early enough you should be able to get a table without any issues. Try it.. you might like it too read more

The Democrat taco is their Barbacoa taco. Brushfire is their fried chicken taco. Both are lackluster tacos. Decent is how my gf described the veggie taco and not crispy (this time). The corn was lukewarm-warm and the dish it's served in is so small that it's annoying to eat. There's little to no spices to it, and is not recommended! The chips are dry/salty and the salsa with diablo was hot, but just that. So not really yummy either and we both only ate about 10 chips before we tired of the taste. I suppose the people eating here look happy so perhaps it's just me but these tacos are meh. I'm writing this review to remember how meh this place is. Apparently I'd been to this location before and forgot how loud the music was (this time was better!) and the food was "decent" then too. Oh! The kiosks are god-awful. They take forever to load the order you've placed, you have to designate a guest and if you ask for help, they'll just have you go to their service pad and redo their entire order. Because they don't "know how to operate" those kiosks. Ridiculous. Bartender said this for clarification, not the staff that's normally handling the front desk... so there's that? read more

I don't get how this place is so busy. I'm not sure if it's a corporate directive or local management choices but I This location is so inconsistent with their menu. They tried to eliminate the "secret menu" but you could still order it but not really. So they added back to the menu which is good cuz I only like the naughty Santa. They added these self order kiosks but the kiosks don't have the full menu so then you have to stand in line to order. Then they changed the quesadilla to just a kids meal which makes sense cuz it was so small in the first place. But the meal come with water and tots. What? And you're paying more for extras you don't want and can't just order a lone quesadilla. On top of that we always order chicken quesadilla and the last three times it comes out just cheese. Today took 45 minutes for our food. Last time we went it took an hour....for tacos. Done with this location. The one in Lowry is smaller with better service. I'll drive further to the Arapahoe location if it means avoiding this one. Then they ask for a tip on top of it for counter service and kiosk ordering. Make it make sense. read more

Pick up order was 20 minutes late which consisted of a kids quesadilla, chips and queso, and one entrée. No communication from the team as to what was taking so long or apologies. Leaders were not assisting in long waits and were inconsistent offering free drinks to those who gave frustration right off of the bat but ignored us who stood quiet. Horrible experience read more

Food was good and filling. Some unique blend of flavors. My husband liked the Damn good fajita plate $11 but not the steak it was very chewy. He did the combo and liked the chicken. Portion sizes were good. I had the Bon Fire bowl $11.30 with chicken. Nice portion, very filling and great mix of flavors from the mango to pistachios. Staff was nice and helpful. read more

The chips and queso were the star of the show, but the fajitas and tacos left more to be desired. I found the tacos dry and bland and the fajitas greasy. I've heard such good things, so I was a bit disappointed. read more

Never had Torchy's Tacos, so my friends whom I was visiting in Denver suggested I give the place a try. We stopped by the restaurant around 6pm on a Wednesday and placed a large to-go order. Ordering was made easy as you could do it right on the electronic kiosks, and you take a buzzer with you while waiting. The place was pretty busy at the time. I could see it being a fun, family-friendly spot especially with its big bar and TVs to go around. We got our order in about 10 minutes and enjoyed the food back at my friends' place. I liked what I ordered, but I did find the savory food excessively salty. I loved that the chips tasted freshly fried, but they were particularly over salted. That said, I ate a few other things including the street corn, Baja shrimp taco, kids steak and cheese quesadilla, and a churro with caramel dipping sauce. The street corn was solid. The Baja shrimp was quite a hefty taco loaded with flavor. I'm so glad that I got a kids steak and cheese quesadilla instead of another giant taco. It was the perfect size to not make me feel full, but the quesadilla was pretty basic though. I dressed it up in salsas, sour cream, and guac. Not a fan of the churro, which reminded me of a cake donut. Just wasn't quite the traditional churro texture I was looking for. read more

5 stars simply for their frozen machine not being broken in the summer time! It was really nice to finally get a frozen swirl margarita at this distant Torchy's location! I went to the Torchy's in my neighborhood last night and the frozen machine was sadly still broken. But this swirl margarita is my favorite so I was so pleasantly surprised to see it literally across the parking lot from my original destination in the same shopping center - Hashtag Highlands Ranch! So I had to stop in for a frozen swirl! This Torchy's seemed really huge inside! There was a big horseshoe bar and there were nice suburbia couples surrounding me and my friend. The bartender was super friendly as were the people around us. It was a fun and social neighborhood place! A place where you could drink to those who just started the first day of their job and those who are still job-free - simultaneously! Great place to stop in for a fun drink and a taco while running around Highlands Ranch! read more

awful. 3rd time in a row they lost my order and had to wait nearly an hour. Shannon me for thinking the first two times were a mustakecc

We just left from having dinner here. We got in at 9 on the dot and they were pretty busy but we sat at the bar and the person running the bar (Natalie) gave us the worst service we have ever received here. She checked on us two times, never asked how the food was, or if we needed anything thing else. She was texting on her phone while we waited 20 minutes for her to even ask us if we even wanted anything to eat. She was extremely friendly with the people next to us and checked in on them multiple times and had conversations with them while we were ignored. When it was time to take our order, she had no issue standing in front of the other guests but made us shout our order while she stood by the computer to put it in. Then, it was time to pay. We waited, she never asked anything so we left our card on the counter as we were trying to leave in a timely manner since they were closed...she did not care. She grabbed the card, swiped it, gave it back with NO WORDS. As much as we like to come here this has put a damper on the dining experience at torchys and we will have a hard time considering this for future visits read more

We placed an order online today, and it was cancelled by DoorDash for no apparent reason. When I called in and spoke with the manager, Zach, he went out of his way to fix the issue for us. Very kind and clearly, cares about his customers! read more

This location would be great 5/5 if they got rid of the computer kiosks and hired a person. It's nonsense to have to stand in 2 lines, one for food and then for one for alcohol. I used to love this place now I think "maybe not, the lines are always bad now even when slow." read more

Wrote a review with a bad experience with food taking over 40 minutes, and trash everywhere. Manager or owner had me rewrite review in another link. No follow-up was received - sounds like thats the crux of issues at this location: poor management. I'd be curious to hear what employees have to say too. read more

Not sure what happens with quality and consistency with this location. But nothing like the Austin locations. Been trying to give it a shot since it's one of the few things I miss about Texas. This location does not get it right ever. Very disappointing. read more

Horrible Service while two managers sat at a high top table today. I walked in around 3:30pm today and no one was at the front counter. I ordered a large chips and queso at the front automated teller and stood there for 10 minutes waiting for my pager to buzz. Several other customers came in and ordered on the automated teller as well as with a server who finally showed up. Some of the customers started receiving their chips and queso while I still stood there. I finally said something and received my order almost immediately. It doesn't take 10 minutes to get a to go order of chips and queso. I was also disappointed to experience all of this going on while two managers did nothing . Not good, likely not going to return! read more

Zach at this location was awesome. Ordered through Doordash...don't recommend them. Doordash is awful. 0 customer service when things go wrong. Torchys is wonderful. Give Zach a raise. read more

Well, this place went downhill pretty quick live in the apartments across the street a year ago. Food quality taste. Everything was great over the last couple of months horrible. I'll have some pictures ordered you know large queso and chips half full so it's like the half order, but you pay for the full order and then we got the churros which normally are good But these are raw inside. Just overall poor experience nowadays going over there so I don't know if management changed but the rewards thing when you visit you don't get your rewards for some reason. I don't understand understand been to the bar and drink and I know you don't get alcohol on there, but I've eaten and then You just don't get credit for any of that so I think I'm gonna find me a new place and you know you guys were good while it lasted, but it it is not worth it anymore to waste money read more

Logan at the bar was great! We discussed "what's the difference between a taco and a burrito"? It's not size (though tacos are generally smaller). It's not the grain used to make them (corn or flour is fine!) It's not that it's fried (see "street tacos"). No, the difference is that each bite is layered and different in a taco. A burrito tends to be homogenous with a couple of simple ingredients. Torchy's tacos have progressive flavors and textures and acidity and spice. Every bit is different and that makes a great taco. E.g. the barbacoa (so tender and the right level of spice. The fried avocado taco was different, but I probably would skip it. And the guacamole and queso was well crafted and had a nice level of heat. And the chips are light and crispy but not crumbly. Excellent! read more

Torchys... great! However, stick to lunch and dinner. I'll have their Democrat, trashy, extra lime wedge all day. Breakfast burritos are substantially less ingredients and sloppy in their prep. For the cost, I'll stick with the lunch and dinner. read more

Food is awesome! Much better service this time. I'm glad they're getting a handle on things. One note, though, the music is way too loud throughout the restaurant. Virtually impossible to have a conversation. read more

Went to Torchy's twice for takeout while I was in Denver and I fell in love the tacos and fajitas were so darn good lol. 1st day I had Steak Fajitas and Baja Shrimp Taco. Took a bite and looked at my fiancé he just smiled no words needed. The steak fajita was so juicy and flavorful no sauce was even needed. The Baja Shrimp Taco was just as delicious but I did add the sauce but was not needed. Second time I decided to try the Chicken Fajitas and a Sangria Swirl and omg Torchy's didn't disappoint once again. Service was great and quick both times even though it was just takeout. The location that we ate from was inside a shopping plaza. The vibe was nice it was given me a retro type look. All in all I would most definitely return back to Torchy's. read more

Another time at Torchy's and another good experience. Food as always 5/5. Hot and damn delicious tacos, sensational guac, and the best queso! (Get it Hillbilly style!!!) One thing keeping this from a 5 star review is that the take out always takes longer than the quoted time and the parking lot is such a hassle (shared with a handful of other businesses) Still a huge fan and regular of Torchy's though and can't get enough of that queso!! read more

Love this place. I go to often for my own good! Get trailer park trashy. You will not regret it!

Totally messed our order up. Forgot our hillbilly queso. When they finally brought us the correct order; my pork green chili taco was cold. Food and service at this location has gone downhill. I could understand if the place was busy, but when I walked in, there were only 2 people at the bar. The place was empty on a Sunday at 4pm. read more

Delicious tacos! Friendly staff. Cool design. I definitely recommend this place. It was not too busy when we visited. read more

Torchy's Tacos is a great Tex-Mex version of tacos. This was one of the first places I tried when moving here and it has become one of my favorites very fast. They have so many great options but my favorites are the migas (breakfast tacos), the trailer park (fried chicken taco), and the fried avocado taco. I have tried almost all of the regular tacos on the menu and they all have unique and great flavors so you can't go wrong. They also do a taco of the month which is a fun way to keep the menu slightly different every month. They do have a secret menu as well that has some great taco options if you do get bored of the regular menu. During the weekends they have specials on appetizers and drinks. They also have some really good deserts like churros and cookie bites. The service at this torchy's is always outstanding. Everyone is super friendly, kind, and helpful. The restaurant is kept very clean and has a very welcoming and fun atmosphere. On one side of the restaurant it is a bar area with 2 tvs that usually show sports then on the other it is like a normal restaurant set up. This location gets very busy but does have a great online ordering/phone order pickups so you don't have to wait in the line. I love torchy's and would definitely recommend checking it out if you have never been to one or if you are looking for good Tex-Mex food. read more

Great customer service, great food. everyone was extremely kind and the food was delicious and out on time. Definitely coming back.

Nice service. Good selection. Great food. Margaritas a bit pricey but tasty. Love the sangria swirls. Great queso and thanks for a $1 off tacos now for Happy Hour. read more

Picked up some food for a client meeting on cinco de mayo. I arrive righted when they opened and was able to order almost immediately. The menu is small but, lots of varieties of tacos. The gal at the counter was very welcoming and helped me place my order. In a few short minutes (roughly 15), my order was all bagged up and I was good to go. Good flavors, would suggest checking it out... and maybe dining in for the whole experience. read more

Best queso ever! Make sure to get it hillbilly (add that chorizo and be extra happy) Everyone is friendly and service is fast. Every location has its own fun vibe. read more

Decided to stop by this location after work. Fun fact, I've never been inside of Torchys before. I have had some takeout and it was amazing. Plenty of parking in the lot with a variety of different restaurants in the area. The ambiance of this establishment is very decorative. Good vibes inside with fun music playing. Equipped with a patio for some enjoyable sunsets. Good place for a margarita. When making my purchase, I was helped by one of the managers Anthony. He quite possibly had one of the best initial greetings for a business in 2022. I inquired about the food items and he immediately had his favorite choices of tacos and queso. The Democrat with corn tortillas and the Beef Fajita on flour. Make sure to get the lime with the democrat. Along with the queso and chips. And a sprite to wash it down. The food was excellent. The customer service from Anthony was exceptional. There is a difference between the employees whom care and the ones whom don't. You only get one first impression and this one was one to remember. The tacos are sold individually. I'm filled up with my order. My favorite taco of the two was the Democrat. The meat melted with each bite. Nice touch with my name on the receipt as well. Thanks for everything Torchys. I look forward to my next visit. read more

This is a follow up. After the wife complained we got a $15 gift card. Because she loved it so much in Austin, I had to give it a second try. Sunday at 1400 is much better than Thursday at 1800. The food was fast, the service was actually friendly this time. So, for the sake of making amends I'm changing my rating to 4/5: would eat here, but it's hit or miss. read more

Torchy's lived up to their reputation for great tasting food. It was my first visit. I chose the burrito with barbacoa. All the ingredients were wrapped in a big tortilla so it was possible to pick it up and eat it. It had just enough spice to make it enjoyable and the flavors mixed well. The burrito was the kind of size where you finish half and then ask yourself, "should I take the rest home..?" But because it's so fresh and good you keep nibbling away at it until the next thing you know, it's all gone. :-) The place was clean and there were people walking around clearing away the baskets once you finished. This was nice because if you want to sit and chat with your friends after your meal, you're not staring at the remnants of your meal in front of you while you socialize. One thing to know about tipping. When you pay for your meal you can add a tip. That money is put into a pot and shared with all the people who help during a particular shift. read more

We had six different tacos from this place and they were all amazing. The grilled shrimp taco is super spicy, so keep that in mind. The fried chicken tacos were delicious. The salsa is amazing. My only complaint was that I asked for no avocado due to a food allergy and one of my tacos came with avocado on it so I wasn't able to try it but all in all, I would whole heartedly recommend this place. read more

Torchy's has so many good taco's...but February is when the Scallywag is back. Torchy's does a "taco of the month", and most of them are pretty good...but the Scallywag is one of the best taco's that you'll ever eat. I don't know why it is only available one month per year. But get there soon to enjoy this goodness. My wife had two Scallywags, and loved them both (as expected), I opted for a Scallywag, and an Ace of Spades. What is the "Ace of Spades", you ask? There is nothing on the menu that is called anything remotely like that. Torchy's has a secret menu. The Ace of Spades is delicious, but it might be TOO MUCH...it does take a few Tums afterwards to get the stomach calmed down. read more

This is nothing like your parents' Torchys. It's a retrograde take on Taco Bell food - with equally inspired service. The chips are fried in soybean oli. Don't mention that on the menu. That's why you get sick when you may, parchance eat here. Contrary to what is stated on the menu, it's a damn good...hot mess. Does not actually appear to be a "scratch kitchen," contrary to what the manager says. I don't see a meat smoker or anything approximating it. Just how do they smoke meat? One wonders. Some observations: Queso: worse than Rotel and Velveeta Tipsy Chick: How about putting less on this bad boy Salmon fish taco: Who was asking for this? I guess they're trying to go public and stuff. The food quality and service attest to this... I would avoid at all costs. read more

Not the best, but not the worst! We came in around 1:30, a perfect time to stop by when the lunch rush has calmed down. We ordered and as soon as we sat down we got our food. The service was so fast, it was hard to believe! I chose to try the taco of the month (Midnight Cowboy) and I definitely LOVED this one. I also tried the Democrat, I'm a sucker for barbacoa. I asked for a flour tortilla on this one, but I think corn was the way to go. The flavor in the barbacoa was okay! There was some flavor, but it didn't satisfy my cravings :( My friend enjoyed the Trailer Park and mentioned that she was a little bit disappointed as the chicken didn't seem like it was very fresh. Nonetheless, the food was good, service was great, and the ambiance was laid back and a great spot for lunch! read more
