You don't go to the Rio Grande for the food (although the chips, salsa and guac aren't bad). No, you go for the unbelievably tasty -- and potent -- margaritas. Enjoy them on the patio.

WHY WE LOVE IT: Tableside guacamole means you decide what goes in it, and a multiple margarita styles mean no one goes thirsty at Carlos Miguel’s, a casual and festive Mexican place where families and large groups co-exist. The plus a menu that goes a bit beyond the usual cheese-chile-combos deal, with several soups, a couple of elaborate steak dishes and a unique honey mustard chicken... more

Editorial Reviews from the web

Food takes a backseat to the potent margaritas and the crowd that loves them.

brought to you by

In Short This wildly popular place usually has a line of people waiting for a table or patio spot. Luckily it's ok to order appetizers and margaritas at the bar and check out the social scene during the wait. The restaurant is all about margaritas: Big or small, frozen or on the rocks. They're deceptively potent; so there's a three-margarita limit. For dining, fajitas hit the table... more

Best margaritas in Denver - hands down. The lunch menu is good considering this restaurant is best known for its marg's. I always get the chicken burrito with green chile (mild) because the hot salsa will melt your tongue.

The service was poor. If its not happy hour, the margs are 6.50 a peice. Although it was strong, it wasn't very big for the 6.50 charge! The chips and salsa were ok, but we only got a few big chips and then the rest were crumbs. Our water glasses remained empty. When we asked if we could special order something, the waitress acted like it was a huge hassle and didn't want to help. Its not... more
