Oct. 4 was National Taco Day and to celebrate, Yelp published a list on Tuesday (Taco Tuesday) that’s sure to be something to taco-bout.
The restaurant reviewing platform culled a list of the 100 best taco joints in the U.S., from trucks to cantinas and breakfast to beer sponge, based on consumer ratings and reviews.
Four Colorado restaurants landed among the top 100 establishments. They are:
Tacos Aya Yay, 1206 Centaur Village Drive, in Lafayette (No. 24)
Xicamiti La Taqueria Bistro, 715 Washington Ave., in Golden (No. 37)
Slope & Hatch, 208 7th St., in Glenwood Springs (No. 76), and
La Calle Taqueria y Carnitas, 1565 W. Alameda Ave., in Denver (No. 77)
That last one was also a finalist in The Denver Post’s sweet 16 round of its recent March Madness taco bracket, before losing to Tacos Selene. Hungry for more recommendations? Here’s where you can celebrate National Taco Day every day of the year near Denver.
