Recently, we found that Yelp users are in love with Uptown & Humboldt for their creative and incredibly tasty burgers.

In a ranking a while back, it was found that the fan favorite Chinese spot was Fortune Wok to Table, which has unique downstairs/upstairs designs with different experiences. Obviously, both floors offer must-have Chinese classics.

However, a recent ranking by 24/7 Wall St. sought to find the best Mexican restaurant in each state, and for Colorado, they chose an absolutely elite spot.

Xicamiti La Taquería Bistro is an absolute favorite amongst the people of Golden, Colorado.

24/7 Wall St.’s article says the restaurant’s take on “street Mexican cuisine” makes this place truly special.

The family owned restaurant serves up a great selection of beautifully crafted tacos and burritos that are to die for.

If you want to sip on something while you eat, you can also try out their awesome margaritas as well.

Colorado's Casa Bonita Worth The Money? Full Review With Pix

Yes, Casa Bonita is back, and better than ever. It's truly remarkable how they were able to re-do so much, yet it still felt just as "homey" as it has all these years. They didn't take away the things that made Casa Bonita the Colorado, and now the worldwide icon that it is. Let me start with the look... It looks fantastic. They nailed the upgrades and renovations. The service was phenomenal. The entertainment was fantastic as well. The food? We'll get to that... But allow us to take you inside and give you a sneak peek at the Colorado Icon that is, Casa Bonita!

This Local Colorado Mexican Restaurant Is One Of The Best

After opening in 2008, Las Palmeras Mexican Restaurant has become one of the area's very best locally-owned places to get delicious, and authentic Mexican food. We found this place by accident years ago while driving hungry down Main Street in Longmont and have been regulars ever since.
