I don’t even know if this review will even do justice to my experience, and it was an order for carryout! From my phone call to place the order, whomever I spoke with was extremely pleasant! She answered my questions and was patient while I got my order together. When I arrived to pick up the food, I absolutely fell in love with this place…its beautiful!! The decor is open and airy, lots of plants on the patio and pictures hanging of what Im assuming is their family farm . We were greeted right away and exchanged small talk. I ordered a margarita while we waited. I can’t recall the name, but it was made witj blood orange liquer, it was the perfect compliment to my meal. Once we got back to our hotel and opened our containers I so appreciated how the containers had been labeled with their contents. We had a variation of tacos,

The absolute best authentic Mexican food in Denver and a new go-to for my husband and I! We loved the vibe and music. The food was amazing and I cannot wait to return! The most wonderful homemade tortillas I think I’ve ever had. All around a 10/10!

This place is great. If you’re curious, do yourself a favor and give it a try. I’ve never had a guisado before, but the chile verde guisado was one of my favorite dishes I’ve ever eaten. My partner loved her quesadilla with barbacoa as well. In both cases the tortillas were maybe the best we’ve had in Denver. The xanga con helado was a fantastic dessert.

RIDICULOUSLY GOOD FOOD! The tortillas are made by hand from scratch by the owner who lovingly brings them right to you as soon as they are freshly cooked. The carne adovado tacos blew my mind–they even take time to roast the tiny bits of pineapple! The chair seats are hand-crafted, just like I grew up with on the border. Every table has fresh, hand-cut flowers in water. The music makes me nostalgic for Mexico. Every detail from food to decoration is full of love and soul of Mexico.

This place is a true gem and exactly what Denver needed! Their homemade tortillas are to die for (literally), and their queso dishes are are incredible! I have been to La Milpa three times in 24hrs because it is just that good! I highly recommend the queso guisado, but all the food is great!
