The restaurant: Taco Uprising, 2849 Welton St., Denver
About: Taco Uprising is a Mexican food-inspired taqueria y cantina offering breakfast and day tacos, coffee and agave-forward cocktails. It’s open seven days a week, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner from Monday to Saturday, as well as Sunday brunch. The Five Points restaurant is owned by friends Samuel Valdez and Matias Gutknecht. Valdez’s parents migrated to the U.S. from northern Mexico, and this is his way of sharing his heritage and passion for Mexican cuisine.
What’s on the menu: Head to the to-go window early for some coffee and breakfast tacos, like the Early Bird Taco with breaded, buttermilk fried chicken, scrambled eggs and chorizo gravy, or the El Classico Taco with refried beans, scrambled eggs, cheese and salsa verde. All breakfast tacos are served on homemade flour tortillas, while day tacos are served on corn tortillas (but can be substituted). Day tacos include fan favorites like the Birria taco with consommé and the Pollo Verde taco simmered in salsa verde. Head to the bar for agave cocktails, like the Popeye’s Poblano with tequila, pineapple, lime and poblano syrup, or a classic Ranch Water in a Topo Chico bottle with tequila and lime.
