Tamayo by Chef Richard Sandoval

“Just finished having brunch at Tamayo and this was my first time coming here it was amazing! We originally came for their brunch special, and it did not disappoint. They have a great brunch menu and even offer endless mimosas, which made the experience even better. Our waitress was incredibly kind and helpful, the atmosphere was gorgeous, and the food was phenomenal. One of the coolest parts was getting to see the rooftop upstairs, which would be a perfect space for events or parties (and I learned they actually host them!). I even grabbed the contact cards for the event coordinator. Brien, the store manager, was extremely kind and wonderful to speak with. Overall, the entire staff was hardworking, welcoming, and provided truly great service. I’ll definitely be back!”

“We had such a great time at Tamayo in Denver. The food and atmosphere were both fantastic, but honestly, the people are what made the night truly memorable. We know Lupita and Scott from their days at La Sandía in Northfield before it closed, so running into them again at Tamayo felt like catching up with old friends. Lupita was behind the bar doing what she does best: warm, attentive, and somehow managing to keep the bar running while also making drinks for the servers, so the whole restaurant never missed a beat. And I'll say it plainly: nobody makes margaritas as she does. Still the best we've had. Scott, the Manager, spotted us the moment we walked in and made us feel right at home. His hospitality is genuine, his attention to detail shows, and you can just tell the place runs the way it does because of him. We'll absolutely be back. If you're on the fence about visiting Tamayo, don't be. Great atmosphere, great food, and people who actually make you feel like you belong there. Ayyy Lupita!!! Luis & Maricela”

“The food and drinks were great. Service was nice, we were told we’d get a spicier salsa for the chips trio and didn’t. It’s cool, we know it gets busy. Did have leftovers that the servers bagged up and even though we told them that we wanted these things- the pico, guacamole, and tortillas weren’t included. For a $300 dinner it would’ve been cool to get all of our leftovers lol.”

“We tried the bottomless menu, which was a nice way to sample all the dishes. The food was good overall, though some items needed seasoning—no salt, pepper, or sauces were offered, and the chicken was dry. Dessert was the highlight and very tasty. The service wasn’t that great either. Also, double-check your bill; ours initially came overcharged.”

“Booked this for our anniversary dinner because it had good reviews. We were nicely greeted by the hostess who congratulated us on our anniversary and brought us to our seats. From the get-go, we were upsold to buy a bottle of wine to celebrate (shown 3 of the most expensive options, naturally). Mind you, we've celebrated special occasions before and have been given a little celebratory drink or app/dessert. Nothing here. Got our drinks menu, ordered and 40 minutes later, I had to flag our waitress down to put in our food order. Place wasn't any busier than a normal Tuesday night, so it was very surprising that we couldn't even see her walking around. Order our food and I get it's downtown so naturally it will be marked up a bit, but $13 for chips and salsa? Just because you say a "Salsa Trio" doesn't mean you need to charge $13 for an item that probably has a 500% markup. Anyways, food comes out (Chicken enchiladas, Crab & Shrimp enchiladas, Street Corn). Good, not great. Bill came and then our waitress was on top of our table. Takeaways: Overpriced. Food is maybe a hair above average. Don't come here to celebrate a special occasion. Margs were good though (Tamayo one especially).”
