“I did some research on local restaurants before my 3 day trip to Denver and was so happy to have found Lucina Eatery. Let's start with the vibe and atmosphere. I felt right at home. The staff was fantastic from Alexander Moon (GM) to Billie (bartender with the right amount of sass, playfullness and desire to please). NOW FOR THE FOOD. Well I went back 2x over the 3 days the food was so good, I sat at the bar (a lot of fun since I was by myself) and felt totally welcome and comfortable. THE CEVICHE and BROCOLLI were to die for. I have 4 orders of Ceviche. I love this place and will be back“

“We sat outside on a very warm evening, and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. The food was consistently good, if not amazing, but the cocktails were poor... particularly when so many other restaurants are doing cocktails so well. Still, it's worth a visit... the coconut rice was superb, as was the elote & burrata, while the pigtail carnitas and the churros were disappointing for everyone at the table.“

“I have been a customer of Maria Empanada for over a decade, since its original location on Morrison Rd. The food at Maria Empanada is amazing!!!…as long as it is fresh. There continues to be inconsistencies with their quality. Often if you go early in the day, you will purchase day old food and the difference is quite noticeable. Today was no exception. I got medialunas and they were disappointingly stale and the empanadas more toasted aka from yesterday. This is my go to and i wish it was consistently good.“

“Pretty decent empanadas for an ok price on the 16th Street Mall. There's a lot of choices, which can make it hard to pick, but they are all pretty yummy, especially after a quick blast in the oven. They are more on the small side for empanadas, which is fine I guess“

“My first time here with a group was great. For apps, we had queso and guac, both were delicious. I tried the chicken empanadas which were pretty good. I also tried the mojo tacos which are pork with plantains. Excellent flavor and I appreciated that they were willing to accommodate my request for no pickled onion. Standouts were the drinks and dessert though. I had a banana pina colada and a frozen strawberry pomegranate margarita and both were scrumptious. The churros and its sauce were the favorite of the meal - a must have!

Service was decent. I could tell he was very busy. Was a little disappointed that after we closed out, we stayed for maybe 15-20 more minutes and there was no additional water brought to the table so many of us had nothing to sip on.

Vibes and atmosphere were excellent but it is pretty loud when it’s busy. I look forward to going back.“

“The absolute best coffee shop in Denver! I ordered the Horchata Latte which was served hot in a traditional red clay mug. My beverage was smooth had a delicate body, a gentle sweetness and fruitiness, and an acidic snap to finish off the experience. There was ample, clean space to sit with friends in the courtyard right outside with chairs and tables. The shop was colorfully complimented with locally made goods, homemade Mexican pan dulce, and offered so much more than coffee. They even make atole which takes me back to my childhood! I can't wait to try everything on their menu. This is my new favorite place in Denver and will quickly become yours too!“
