Everything is always very tasty and reliable but unfortunately they often forget item modifiers like sour cream. Still a great spot to check out!

Got my car towed while I was inside eating, had to pay over $300 to get it back. When I went back to the restaurant to ask about the situation, they pretended they didn't recognize me. Horrible service, I will never come back.

DO NOT PARK HERE!!!!! $300 — DO NOT PARK HERE! My partner ate here and parked in their lot. They towed his car while he was in the restaurant!!! (He first thought it was stolen and went the police station). He paid in cash, so they denied that he even ate there! THE TOW COST $300. There is no cold, average-tasting food that is worth $300!!!!

I went the other day. i guess their microwave is broken because my burrito was three different temps throughout. the coldness was enough to distract from the lack of flavor

Would rate 0 if I could. They towed my car in customer parking WHILE I was eating inside and pretended they didnt recognize me. Food is mid, not worth the risk.

Their tacos are AWESOME! Ask for their secret menu.
This location is trash.
Oh, how you’ve fallen. You’re not even a shadow of what you used to be. I lived next to a Torchy’s in Austin in the mid-2000s, and what I just experienced in Denver doesn’t even come close.
First, the tortillas for my tacos tasted like they came straight out of the bag—completely uncooked. My food came out lukewarm at best. The migas taco was the biggest disappointment. When did “migas” become just tossing an egg on top of tortilla strips and calling it a day?
I understand things evolve as a company grows, but this was a poor—and frankly, embarrassing—representation of Texas food.
On the plus side, the restaurant was very clean, and the young woman who greeted me, Lyric, was friendly, welcoming, and a true asset to your company.
Just so we’re clear—I don’t blame the kitchen team. They’re doing what they’ve been taught. The true fault lies with corporate management and whoever is responsible for setting the stores up for success. Please do better.

Good Tex-Mex flavors that hit the spot, but portions tend to be on the smaller side. Prices feel a bit high for what you get. Great for a flavorful quick bite if you don’t mind paying a little extra.

Do not eat here. I parked in the torchys lot went into the restaurant and when I came out my car was towed away. Thank you for the very expensive bill to eat at your restaurant torchys.

I ordered the steaks salad. The lettuce, Krispy, and the steak was juicy and perfection.. The service, excellent Steve attending bar takes pride and his job and it shows.

There are tacos, and then there is Torchy’s—gritty, glorious, unapologetic. A psychedelic roadside attraction masquerading as a taco joint, parked square in the chaos of Denver’s 11th Ave like a neon-lit food altar built by renegade saints and line cooks with too much soul to quit.
I went in hungry and mildly unhinged. The salad with chicken arrived first—an architectural wonder of greens, charred meat, and whatever secret dressing they’re brewing in the back with lightning and good intentions. The chicken was tender, seared just enough to keep you honest. Each bite whispered, “Slow down, you animal. This is the good stuff.”
Then came the beans and rice—nothing fancy, but holy hell, they had gravity. Earthy, warm, humming with spice. You don’t just eat Torchy’s beans and rice. You feel them. Like a low drumbeat in your chest. Like a food truck rolling through your subconscious.
And the mango juice? Liquid gold. Bright as a flare gun, sweet as a bribe, and thicker than most politicians’ promises. It clung to the sides of the glass like it knew it was too good to last. Every sip was a tropical gut-punch in the best possible way.
Service? Sharp and fast—like they knew you might unravel if left too long with your own thoughts. No fluff. No forced cheer. Just tacos, juice, and the quiet understanding that life out there is insane, but in here, the food makes sense.
Torchy’s isn’t a restaurant. It’s a controlled detonation of flavor and form, served with a wink and a wedge of lime. Don’t ask questions. Just go. Eat. Repeat.
