I grew up across the street from the taco house south federal When we were kids Tommy and Albert would hire us kid to help pack the bell peppers and green chilies out the back of south federal taco house that when I was 9-10 old then when I was 14 I worked being a dish washer. I remember when the guy blew up the plane he also have the apartments behind the taco house too I remember the night it blew up we could go outside to look my dad wouldn’t let us fond memories of South Federal taco house

When I lived in Denver over the winter of 1987-88, y'all had a $4-all-you-can-eat deal, at least on Sundays; as a 22-year-old, I took full advantage. I have a lovely memory of sitting in your establishment for hours one sunny day, reading both the Denver Post and the Rocky Mountain News, while my plates piled up. Two teenagers had come in after I did, and they sat in the booth behind me; they ate while I ate. Eventually I heard them saying something to the effect of "We couldn't eat another bite" -- but when I turned and looked at their table, the stack of plates that the two of them had emptied did not measure as tall as my own. I sure couldn't do that anymore, but I feel gratitude all of these years later for the down-home and very tasty food that helped keep a marginally-employed young man nourished. Long may your neon sign glow!

Been eating your delicious food for 50 years and mostly the tasty Taco Burger - Love It! Have dined at all locations but mostly the Littleton location. Thanks for the online store option. I finally bought a tee shirt since I now live in Phoenix AZ and can’t find a good Taco Burger here. I visit you every time I get back to Denver. Thanks for many years of lunches and dinners. Glad you have stayed on business all these years my old house. Keep on cooking:-)

I have loved Taco House since I was a little girl. I live up north and drive south at least once a week to get cheese enchiladas. It would be so nice to have a location back in north Denver or Thornton or even better Westminster. Would this ever be possible?!

Please find a place to continue with the Enchilada sauce. My mom Carol worked with Bob and Vicki for 25 years at the Federal location and this is the one thing that I purchase to remind me of growing up in Colorado and reminds me of my late mom. Come out east and set up a location because let me tell you, there is NO good Mexican food out here in Virginia. Miss Taco House so much!! Please bring back you enchilada packets soon!

I remember, growing up in Denver, going to Taco House on a regular basis, as it was a favorite of my mom and dad, as well as my grandparents. After we moved to the Western Slope, we continued to visit Taco House during every trip back to Denver. When I went to college at CSU we used to make trips to Denver just to go to Taco House! I miss the cheese enchiladas, tacos and the chili con queso the most! I remember how they used to bring two different kinds of hot sauce to the table, in little drinking glasses with plastic spoons, and then when they began the All-You-Can-Eat Special...which was always my favorite! Now that I am living in Germany I always think about Taco House when I make my own Mexican food!

I've been going to the Taco House since I was a child in the mid/late '70s. It's been consistently delicious all these years. I moved away from Denver 15 years ago and miss the Taco House so much. Every time I come home to visit, I eat the Taco House as many times as possible. I was elated to learn about the enchilada sauce being sold online. I bought 3 to start. I love you Taco House!

I used to live right up the street from this Taco House when I lived on West Walsh Place. I love the Taco House. I wish they had more of them all over the United States. I think they would do quite well if they went nationwide. Best food in Denver.

We have been coming here since early 80's and we have moved now so I'm thankful we can buy at least the enchilada sauce of yum...on line. Just made a new order. The daughter is just amazing very polite, happy, professional its a pleasure when we do make it in we get to reminisce with her.

When I go I order smothered burrito all the time went with My mom when I was little.now I take my daughter she love it.

There used to be a location on north Federal Blvd and my family and I used to go in there all the time. (We currently live out of state.) You could order three tostadas (NOT tacos), one with beans, one with cheese and one with guacamole and get all three for a buck. It was the best buy in the whole world. We would do that over and over. I am sure the cook was smart enough to know what was going on....LOL Of course, eventually we would order an enchilada stack covered in red sauce or something else on the menu. We LOVED that place.

I've been going to taco house since the late 60S loved them then and still do.

What a success story this little restaurant is. Best prices- good food and family atmosphere. I hope this place is open well past 100 years.

Patrick McCullough wrote on July 18, 2020 at 10:36 pm

Been eating here my whole life. Grew up on Taco House. I now live out of state, but make it a point to stop by every time I'm in town. I have the hat and the shirt, so I can spread the word. See yah soon.

I love Taco House. I have been going to your restaurant for over 30 years. The best enchiladas ever! I wish there was a location in NoCo. Thank you for bomb food great memories!

Brad Bollinger wrote on April 23, 2019 at 4:34 am

This is my favorite restaurant and not just because the cheese enchiladas are the best in the world, it also has to do with the best wait staff in the world! Now I haven’t actually been around the world but I’ve seen a good share of it. I’ve never experienced such kind and generous servers before. If you didn’t get enough chips and salsa on the first go around, just be patient because they will be coming around to ask if you would like more. The cheese enchiladas are so good that you’ll be back for more again and again but be careful because the plate is very hot and the sauce may still be boiling, exactly how I like it! Thank you Taco House for working so hard to make our experience the best, anywhere!!

Myself, My Mom and Grandma love your family and your food. We have been going to your restaurant since it was just starting.

I attended Colorado School of Mines in the early 1980's and Taco House was a standard place for us to get good Mexican food on a student's budget. the memory crossed my mind today and am so pleased to know you are still around. Congratulations on 60 years--I'll stop by next time i am in the Denver area.

Camy Rea wrote on May 21, 2018 at 10:32 pm

Best place ever! Best guacamole and Burradas! Would anyone ever share how you make the guacamole? Please open one up north in Broomfield!!!!

Always a good meal when I’m home! I miss having taco house on a weekly basis. I’ll be back soon!!

My dad always took me and my sister here as kids and I love it! We also made it a tradition to come to Taco House on our birthdays and I plan on being here for my sixteenth!!!

I went here as a child and still do today with my mom. The table salsa is good . The chicken burrito with green Chile is good. The Chile verde is good. The salad plate. Food food!

I absolutely love the cheese enchiladas. I've been enjoying them since before I was in second grade.

Sandi Riedel wrote on March 20, 2017 at 10:28 pm

The Taco House is comfort food as I have been going there for 50 years. All my kids and grandkids now love it too. Good job keeping good prices and tasty food. TY

Jim Eberle wrote on December 28, 2016 at 11:27 pm

My dad brought me to Taco House back in the 60s and I've been going for over 40 years. I got hooked on the Burrada, back then it was $0.60. The prices have changed, but the food is just as good.

Anthony Garcia wrote on December 1, 2016 at 11:27 pm

Mom brought me here when I was 5 that was over 20 years ago, never left. food is so delicious. Nobody can resist the #4. Amazing flavors. Please never leave.

OMG! I'm SO excited to see this site! My mom, Carol Arnold worked for Bob and Vicky for 25 years at the Federal Blvd. location. I would go in with her on select Saturdays when she would prep for Bob when her and Vicky would go on vacation. They trusted her and she worked with Anita for years too!! The memories of sitting in one of the booths when I would join my mom during prep. She would make me a bean chalupa with plenty of cheese and a dr. pepper while she worked. The yummilicious smells from the cheese and the kitchen. I'm a wife of a Marine and we have moved so much and are now in Stafford Virginia and what I would GIVE to have the recipes for the enchilada sauce, the refried beans and the original queso dip (with beans). Takes me back when I was younger! I turn 46 tomorrow 6/29 and I just bought me a t-shirt and 4 of the classic enchilada sauces for my birthday!! I remember when Bob passed away from skin cancer. God bless him and Vicky. Two very good people!!

I used to go to the one that was on West Colfax when I was in High School but since they closed I go to the one on Wadsworth every time I am in town ( Live on the Western Slope ) and order Burrada's to go !!! Have always received great service & they probably think I'm wierd ordering so many to go , all the way to Craig !!! Now I can order the Classic Enchilada Sauce online and enjoy it anytime at home ! THANK YOU !!!!!

Forty-three years ago my wife and I got married. We moved to Denver for school. We had little money and found Taco House. We love the place. We are in CA now, but are retiring and moving back to Denver. We will once again be customers at Taco House.

I am so excited to have found this site. I worked at the Taco House in Littleton from 1976 to 1978, and every time I go back to Colorado, I have to stop in for some TexMex food. You just can't find that in California! I wish that there was a way for you to ship the Chili Con Queso. The best cheese dip ever!

Lorrie English wrote on December 30, 2015 at 6:16 am

Love love Taco House, been going for 40+ years. Love the #4 and the chili con queso...can't wait to try the powdered enchilada sauce at home!!

Ral Sandberg wrote on December 3, 2015 at 11:13 pm

I live about 40 miles away, and I don't get down your way very often these days, but I make it a point to stop by when I can. I always get the #4, and usually extra items. I was surprised and happy to see the enchilada sauce mix, and I'm eager to try it out. Thanks for all the years of good eatin'.
