We stopped here for Sunday lunch just as it opened at Noon. Tocabe takes a Mexican fast-food approach to serving, with servers at the counter filling your plate with your choices from the assembled options. My wife and I both had the Indian Taco Plate with braised shredded bison, black beans, osage hominy, lettuce, cheese, mild tomato salsa and seed mix. Both the individual flavours and the overall combination of tastes were divine. The ingredients were fresh and high quality, and the cooking superb. I don't know how close this food is to what American Indians traditionally ate on the Colorado mountains and plains, but it is truly delicious. Not to be missed if you're in Denver.

Love the cool vibe... by cool, I mean everyone working there is cooler than you are, but they donât act like it. Such a rad vibe and the food is great! Tons of drink and food options. But the vibe is the real reason to go. Loosen up, roll up your shirt sleeves to show your tat sleeve, and settle in for a long night of tequila and memories you wonât tell!
3. Fuzzy's Taco Shop

Recently tried Fuzzy's in Arvada for the first time at the suggestions of a work acquaintance. I tried three tacos: pork, chicken and grilled fish. All three were ample sized tacos with good flavor though each could have been 'amped' up a bit. I ended up adding salsa to two of them. They also had a lot of shredded lettuce. I could have done with less and simply brushed half of it off.We also ordered chips and queso with a small side of salsa. The chips are thin and cripsy. The queso was bland, tasting like plain melted Velveeta. It needed a lot more spice. You can get it with meat and I'm sure chorizo would have helped a lot though I wish the basic queso had more flavor by itself. The salsa was a bit sweet for my taste.Service was better than expected. You get a buzzer to come get your meal at the kitchen window. After picking up our chips, a worker there offered to pick up our tacos, cleared our plates, made nice conversation without being obtrusive. I wish I had her name to tell the manager.I would definitely go back for the tacos or to try another dish, but I would skip the chips and queso.
