The hostess always sets the tone for the experience. Isla was so excellent and accommodating to our seating request due to my service dog. Bella busted it on the skinny margarita. So extra yum. We were leaving the rec center and didn’t want a lot of food. We had the house, guacamole, some salsa with chips, and two different tacos- pescada tempura and carne asada. Yum. Stopping here was what we would call a good decision. Will def be back!

My parents and I came out to dinner here for the first time last night, and we all had a great time. Our server was wonderful and super duper attentive, and all of the food we had was all great. The churros were especially good! I definitely recommend this place.

Wait line about 45 minutes.Crowded sports bar with long waiting line for bathroom.Our table ordered all varieties of tacos : shrimp, pastel,asada, fish grilled or fried. We were not impressed with creoles fish – was dry and flavorless. The three salsa samples were ok. Drinks ok. Amazing wait staff.All menu is gluten free and Terrace is available.

Teocalli is consistently the best restaurant in Lafayette. There are many reasons for this. The food is always fantastic. Not just decent, or good, but legitimately like ,”um, yeah I could eat that every day for the rest of my life.”
The portions are generous for the prices. The flavors are always bright and well balanced. There is something on the menu for basically every way of eating and/or allergy consideration. Speaking of which, this is actually a truly gluten-free establishment. A friend of mine has such significant Celiac disease that she has to carry a test kit to detect wheat gluten if she goes out to eat, and she does not have any issues here. The wait staff also always asks when you order something if there there needs to be modifications to a dish before they put it in because they are very conscious of their food allergy customers. That’s pretty clutch as someone who has a nut allergy and sometimes forgets.
All in all, this is a place you want to eat. There is a reason it is always packed. Go, get the Teocalli guac, birria taco, and brussels. Have a good time, and tip your server well.

It was my friend’s first time going to Teocali and this place did not disappointment- she loved it! The food is great. I’ve been here a few times before and the food has always been consistently good. I made a hiccup during my order and didn’t realize my starter had peanuts in it(queso flameado)- I was embarrassed by my mistake but our server was so sweet and was able to get us a new one without peanuts. Shoutout to Daisy G her service was amazing! She made the dining experience great. She was so patient with us and I can just tell she’s a hard working person. The wait wasn’t so bad either! You know this place is good when it’s busy on a Monday night. Keep doing what you guys are doing, happy to be a returning customer ⭐️

Had dinner for four last evening. Had a great table at the front of the restaurant, in the little window Bay. Restaurant was quite busy for a Thursday evening with the outside seating full on a beautiful Lafayette. Our server was great and very attentive and professional!
From the receipt this is what we all had: Prospector, La Casa, Athletic Cerveza Light NA, Esquites, Shishito Peppers, Taco de Tempura, Taco de Tuna, Taco de Chicken, Adobo Tuna, Taco de Tijuana Style Shrimp, Taco de Pescado Tempura, Banana Split. The house Marg was perfect Save room for the banana split, or share it, if you’re able to
Highly recommend this restaurant, would recommend a reservation as well. The food was outstanding, the atmosphere was perfect, and the service was spectacular.

A sign on the table indicated that happy hour is daily from 3-5pm so I was glad our reservation was for 4:45. We were able to order drinks, appetizers, and tacos before 5pm! Everything was a delight, the macha salsa is delicious and sweet, the tomatillo was tangy with a kick, and the house margarita was just right.

Hands down one of the top Mexican restaurants in the entire Denver area I have been to! Decided to go here for a patio and a light lunch and left knowing we would become regulars. The salsa trio was great! Select from their list of creative and flavorful options with varying levels of heat. My favorite was a pineapple habanero. Tacos were up next. I went with a Carne Asada, pork belly and an avocado tempura. All were delicious but the pork belly was awesome! Side of Mole and this meal was flavor packed. Great decor and atmosphere. Quality service by friendly staff. We will be back soon!

This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Fast, friendly service, and the food was phenomenal. As a household with a gluten allergy, it was a wonderful surprise to find out THE ENTIRE MENU is GF. It was the first time in a long time we’ve had a quesadilla or a churro and tears of joy were shed. We would like to thank the entire team for preparing a wonderful meal and making us feel so well taken care of. Hope you have room for a few new regulars!

Good food. Sort of expensive. They’ve got booths, table tops, and a bar to sit at. The tacos were great their guac and salsas are also very good. Parking can be a little tricky to find in a busy night but it wasn’t too bad. We did make a reservation for dinner which was helpful.
