Tocabe is the brainchild of Ben Jacobs, a member of the Osage tribe who's lived here since he was a kid, went into the restaurant biz at fifteen and still managed college (majoring in history and Native American studies). Then he spotted a hole in Denver's tattered skein of ethnic and international cuisines and went after it with his whole heart, collecting recipes from his past to fit a fast-casual Native American concept. It was a great idea, and Tocabe is a great spot, serving up inexpensive meals that start with one of the true culinary breakthroughs of the New World: fry bread.
We've raved about Tocabe before -- it won a Best of Denver award in 2009, and former restaurant critic Jason Sheehan gave it a stellar review. And even better: Tocabe is vegetarian- and vegan-friendly... More »

The staff was super friendly, the beer was ice cold and cheap at happy hour prices, the food was tasty! These folks are also concerned about the environment so they use all green products like, forks, plates, cups made from corn, etc. Try it out and you won't be disappointed!
While American Indian food may be the original American cuisine, not many of us have experienced much past fry bread. But Tocabe, a new fast-casual spot that got its start in Denver, does a perfect job of fusing the old with the new. In a Chipotle-esque setting, and at Chipotle-esque prices, you can get Medicine Wheel Nachos and delicious green chile, as well as pillowy fry bread.
