Really fun and local atmosphere. Great food! Mole sauce is obviously from scratch with super flavor. The house margarita is unbeatable. The salsa could be better. Still the best Mexican we’ve tried since moving to Denver.
Crucial local restaurant and bar. Thankful to have this place rockin’ in this neighborhood. Great food and excellent micheladas & margaritas. Awesome staff, especially the one and only Ben Hoops. Thanks, Adelita’s!
Cool, vibey atmosphere, tall stools ain’t too comfortable but the fantastic service made up for it. Food came up fast. Does not take reservations. Lots of sauce options. Chips and salsa is not free, but still yummy. Good coffee.
The food was extremely satisfying and flavorful. They menu and staff are also accommodating when it comes to gluten/dairy allergies. I had their weekly special ( huaraches ), and it didn’t disappoint! Fairly priced & delicious Mexican food in Denver in a cute area with a shared customer parking lot.
If you're looking for fantastic Mexican fusion food, Adelitas is the way to go! Everything tasted so good, and I will be coming back here again. I'm not a huge fan of alcoholic drinks, but our waitress recommended their espresso shots, which honestly weren't too bad as far as shots go. My favorite part about eating here was the tres leches cake and ceviche. The only downside was that the ceviche had an off ratio to the number of chips they provided. I would definitely recommend ordering an extra basket of chips, especially if you plan on sharing.
Our waitress also let us know that Adelitas is woman owned and founded, and it definitely shows! Not many restaurants provide feminine hygiene products in their bathrooms, but they do, and for free at that!
Parking is a little dicey because there's no parking lot. It's all street parking. Depending on the time of day, you can park fairly close.
Overall, I had a wonderful experience, and I know you will too if you decide to eat here!
Outstanding! Bring friends so you can order a nice variety, everything we’ve ever had is excellent! As a professional chef I am sensitive to cleanliness, the kitchen was looking deeply cleaned on this and past visits (I always evaluate a kitchens clean level, even under the table legs, a cronic problem). We will be back soon!
Overall, it was one of the best Mexican restaurants that have been to in the Denver metropolitan area. I highly recommend it. My only disappointment was with the cocktails. They are extremely small and very expensive. However, the delicious food made up for the lack of alcohol experience.
Wow! 10/10 food, I listened to other reviewers and got the mushroom sauce, it did not disappoint. The food portions were great for the price and the quality of food blew us away.
Whether you live in Denver, or just visiting I definitely recommend giving this Mexican joint a try!! Look no further… this is place you want to be!!!
Great food, service, and aesthetic! The food was so good here. I really liked their chips and guac (the ratio wasn’t perfect, but it’s hard for that to ever work out). The drinks were great, classic margaritas with a few flavor options. I got tacos and loved them. Would definitely go again with friends or on a date!
If you're craving Mexican food in the heart of Denver, this is the place to go. They have decent vegetarian options as well and the prices are reasonable too.
Some of the best tamales and fajitas I've ever had, but honestly the service is top notch. The staff is amazing. Very attentive, very friendly.
I left my credit card and my waiter tracked me down on the sidewalk.
I can't wait to come back!
Try all 4 of the sauces! It's worth it. Also try mixing them all together. Great atmosphere. Friendly service from Haley who recommended I get a taste of all 4 sauces. If I hadn't done this, my review would have been "fine" 😉
