When travel proves too expensive, you can still take your taste buds on a trip with some exotic delicacies from Denver's Mexican, Italian, Vietnamese and other international populations.
Illegal Pete's

The burritos are made with fresh ingredients and generously proportioned. You choose all the ingredients by pointing, so infinite avenues of customization are possible. A few good beers are on tap, and the casual atmosphere of the restaurant lends itself to hanging around for a couple pints.

Contrary to its humble appearance, this is one of Denver's favorite restaurants, evidenced by the multiple ad-hoc patio extensions. The flavors are both exotic and fresh, the portions are liberal and the service speedy. They're also open late into the night, till 4am Sunday through Thursday and till 5am Friday and Saturday.

This place is classic- no gimmicks, no decor, simply amazing, wholesome, homestyle cooking at very reasonable prices. The menudo, chile relleno burrito, green chile sauce, smothered enchiladas, huevos rancheros and of course the tacos are all outstanding, and generally served up with bountiful sides of refried beans and spiced rice.

Mexican, Italian and Vietnamese restaurants provide Denver with a healthy scheme of ethnic cuisine, but can also be found elsewhere. Tocabe, a fast-casual Native American restaurant created by a member of the Osage tribe, is far more unique and just as delectable. The amount of food given for price is extremely reasonable as well.

The restaurant's patrons, mainly local Vietnamese immigrants, are a testament to the authenticity of Pho Duy's recipes. If you haven't tried pho before, rest assured the flavorful broth gaurantees a great dish which can be precisely customized by selecting meat, poultry, seafood or tofu then adding the desired amount of dressings yourself.

Santiago's Mexican Restaurant

The chili here is a true staple of the regional working and student classes. Breakfast burritos, a bargain at only $2 a piece, are the best vehicle and on offer until 11 am. If you truly relish heat, order the 'hot', but be warned. Otherwise, they'll make you a medium 'half-and-half' mix, or a mellow 'mild'.

Though the food here certainly can't be called 'gourmet', the ever present crowd of latino families is a testament to its soul power. Authentic in spirit if not ingredients, the green chili smothered grilled cheese sandwich elevates simple white bread and American cheese to unimaginable heights of gluttonous ecstasy.

Tamales by La Casita

The red or green chile and vegetarian tamales are all delicious and extremely affortable at only $1.35 a piece (you'll probably want a few). They're also a bit healthier here than elsewhere due to the use of vegetable oil rather than lard. Other usual suspects; smothered burritos, tacos, stuffed sopapillas, etc. also feature on the menu.

For less than $5 a piece you can sample each of Pinche's exceptional tacos. The freshness of the flavors, a result of locally sourced ingredients, makes them far outshine the competition. These joy-filled tortillas are perfectly complimented by the range of small-batch tequila on offer.
