Ravenous crowds from all over town flock to La Fiesta for their midday meals. They're drawn by the convivial vibe of the huge dining room (this was once a Safeway), the friendly family that runs the joint (which is open for weekday lunches only) and the huge portions of delectably cheesy, greasy, addictive Colorado-style Mexican food, including free chips and salsa, great chiles rellenos and a hot -- very hot -- green chile packed with pork, tomatoes and peppers.

  • 2008 | Best Colorado-Style Mexican Restaurant

    There was a time when our favorite Korean restaurant was in a huge, ex-McDonald's space. There's a Chinese restaurant we really like that grew in a space vacated by a Taco Bell. And our favorite outpost for Colorado-style Mexican grub is a joint... More >

  • 2005 | Best Colorado-Style Green Chile -- Smooth

  • 2004 | Best Red Chile

    There are those who go for the cheap thrills -- the quick, delicious burn that green chile makes when it reaches the sinuses. But red has its pleasures, too, and there's no red chile more pleasant than the version that La Fiesta's been dishing... More >

  • La Fiesta

    By Jason Sheehan | Thu, January 10, 2008

    There was a time when my favorite Korean restaurant was the one housed in the shell of a former McDonald's on Parker Road in Aurora — a massive place that still had uncomfortable plastic McDonaldland seats in the dining room and big Ms embossed on... More >

  • Horny Purple People Eater Margarita

    By Nancy Levine | Thu, June 21, 2007

    A change will do you good — and the changes taking place in Denver are amazing. Fifteen years ago, La Fiesta tried to expand from its weekday, lunch-only schedule into the evening hours, but it just didn't work. Back then, the Curtis Park neighbor... More >

  • Drink of the Week

    By Nancy Levine | Thu, November 25, 2004

    I love the irony of a place that's called La Fiesta Supper Club only being open for weekday lunches -- and from just 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at that. My sources tell me that back in the day, La Fiesta was a real supper club (and before that, a Safewa... More >

    La Fiesta has won many Best of Denver awards, and it's eligible for so many more. Best Mexican Restaurant in a Former Grocery Store. Best Strictly Colorado-Style Mexican Restaurant. Best Wednesday Special (chile caribe). Best Weekday Lunch-Only Mexican Restaurant. Oops, that no longer applies. Because La Fiesta has now extended its hours on Friday, and Friday only, to 9 p.m., and added special happy-hour deals on both food and drink starting at 3 p.m. On sunny days, the outdoor patio is the perfect spot to watch conscientious business types racing home to pay the babysitter; the capacious dining room is conducive to throwing all manner of impromptu parties.
