Cochino is quickly becoming one of my go-to spots. Cool atmosphere with a tequila bar and tvs all around, but still a relatively quiet atmosphere compared to other bars. Friendly, attentive staff. Insanely quick order-to-table every time so far, one of the top reasons I continue to go. Quite affordable. I like to take friends here

Thought this time would be better but it wasn't. My order of tacos were heavily drowned in oil which made the tortillas soggy and the lady behind the bar who served us was super rude. My boyfriend's taco looked like a toddler was the kitchen chef. This place doesn't care how they treat customers and how the food quality is. Cochino means dirty, that is literally what this place is. We won't be back.

The food is over priced for sub par tacos. Very forgettable. I got the pork and steak tacos and there wasn't much flavor. It seems like a cool restaurant with plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. I just wouldn't go back because of the food.

This was a great last lunch to end my trip to Denver! Once I saw they had happy hour everyday starting at 11am, I HAD to go! I started with the house margarita (only $5.50) - it was delicious and strong. For my food, I did not order off the happy hour menu, although they had tons of options. I ordered three tacos including the Say What? (pigs ears) and they were all so good!! Very flavorful and the toppings and sauces were so fresh and yummy. Service was also super fast, and the interior was very cute; they also had a nice patio. Would definitely recommend giving them a try, some of the best tacos I had in a while.

Man!!! I want to like this place so much but, with all the amazing restaurants for street tacos and Mexican fare, it's hard. Pros: for this location, the patio is great! Has misters and shade and a great view to people watch. Good customer service. Good margaritas. Cons: soooooo sooooo basic and bland. Like, really really bland. Make a salsa with some flavor and kick...PLEASE!! Their three salsas...even though they are made from different tomatoes, taste basically the same. We tried La Loteria and they had a line out the door (very understandably) so we came here (no line...no surprise). Next time I'll wait in line! Unless this place can add some heat!!!!

Awesome little spot off Broadway for some tacos. My lady and I went during happy hour on a Monday. They have an all day happy hour until 6 with some good deals. We both ordered their classic margaritas off of the happy hour menu. $5 margaritas with spicy salt. I had the happy hour chicken tacos 2 for $6 and a Boracho Cammaron taco. The shrimp taco was not on the happy hour menu but it was DAMN good. My lady had a shredded beef burrito bowl that was very good to. The meat on the burrito bowl was delicious and juicy with lots of flavor. We sat on their outdoor patio that is right off of Broadway Street. Service was good and we enjoyed our happy hour. With all of the other taco joints around the area Cochino has my vote beacuse of everyday all day happy hour. We will be back

We had a great meal. Kids loved the patio and I loved that any taco can be served on lettuce! Carnitas was delicious and the tots app was so good. What a gem we came across here. Great service, attentive staff and a great place to go with our kids!

Delicious tacos. Worth the price. Amazing happy hour. Wonderful margaritas. Quality customer service!First time here and I placed my drink order in which there was a time issue and delay in my drink and food order. My server Tiaira and the manager apologized and offered to offset my bill due to this issue. I really appreciated this as I was hungry and ready for food.Happy hour is every day from 11-6! Amazing. Make sure to go in this time! You save a little over $2 on some of the margaritas and apps.I ordered a Piña piña peno margarita suggested by the server. Delicious, good heat and sweet. (On happy hour menu)Also ordered the Squash Ratatouille tacos from the HH menu. Delicious with so much flavor. 2 tacos for $5!Ordered 1 Taco Al Cabron taco. Also delicious and great flavor. $4.50Last taco I ordered was the single carne asada taco. $4.75 This taco alone would get a 5 star. The flavor was AMAZING. I will probably be back again for this before I leave my trip in Denver. One of my favorite carne asada tacos ever. I also got this without the tomatillo dressing (I dislike avocados) and thought the taco was superb.Ordered a frozen Paloma margarita to go. Great flavor and strong alcohol in the margaritas. Even though it started off a bit slow/rocky, would definitely recommend! Didn’t get tequila specifically but sooo many options.
Service was great. Food was mediocre enough for me not to leave a review until my final taco came out. The shrimp taco literally had one shrimp on it. I get that shrimp isn’t inherently plural but come on!

Great atmosphere, good location, attentive staff nice patio. Good selection of drinks however the tacos were not as tasty as I would hoped. Some of the appetizers were creative and tasty but I would skip the tacos next time and maybe just have drinks.

I have been going to Cochino Taco for years now. They have one of the best happy hours in Denver! I love their margaritas. Their beef shaggy tacos and queso are my go-tos. Sometimes service is spotty, but the food usually makes up for it!

We LOVE going to Cochino Taco. The HH prices from 11am-6pm everyday are amazing. I definitely recommend the frozen paloma, though be careful with them because they are STRONG! For food, I pretty much get the crunchy tacos shaggy style. The shaggy style can be applied to any of their tacos and its awesome.

Great happy hour! I was pleasantly surprised by the frozen margs, the passion fruit stood no chance next to me. Queso was good too, a bit nacho cheesy, but the seasoning on the chips were delicious! I liked my chicken tinga tacos, but the crunchy beef ones were a bit too greasy for my taste. I will definitely be back for a casual marg with chips and salsa!
