Had such a fun night at Federales! The vibes were on point — great music, energetic crowd, and the perfect mix of upscale but still laid-back. The margaritas were strong (the way they should be ), and the tacos were packed with flavor.

Shouting out Aaliyah for making the experience even better! She was super attentive, friendly, and made sure our table was taken care of all night. Amazing service really makes a difference, and she definitely delivered.

If you’re looking for a spot with good food, good drinks, and good energy, this is it. I’ll definitely be back!

Federales was fantastic. The tacos were AMAZING. I had the pork and pineapple, the carnitas, and the spicy chicken, and all three were full of flavor. The free chips and salsa were surprisingly great too. We also ordered the guacamole and queso, and both were fresh, creamy, and really tasty. Federales is an easy yes for anyone who loves good tacos.

John is an amazing bartender and his suggestions were on point! I tried the Baja, Barbacoa chicken and pork and pineapple. The flavors were consistent and the side of salsas are a great additions if you need an extra kick! The blood orange marg is handmade – definitely worth it!

Had a blast! Food and service was amazing! Also, our waitress Megan was also so friendly and kind. I ordered 3 different tacos, the asada taco, the pork pastor taco and chalupa taco. Definitely a vibe here!

Great spot! On our first night here from Houston. Was not expecting Denver to deliver on Mexican food over Houston but deliver they did!! Good music and vibes.

Another fantastic stop to add to your RiNo district adventure! The vibes here are great, and if you’re looking to catch a game, they’ve got plenty of TVs. It can get a little loud, but that’s part of the fun and energy. The food is solid, with tacos ranging from $6 to $9 each, and they serve bottomless chips with salsa—perfect for snacking. Don’t miss their margaritas—they’re really good! Throwing ice at the bell seems like a hit and theme to get it to ring. A fun spot to hang out and enjoy the lively atmosphere.

Nothing good here. They don’t offer white meat chicken and the discounted margaritas at $9 were heavy and tasted off.
Potato taco was simple and Shrimp taco had weird ingredients.

I recently visited Federales in the RiNo district of Denver, Colorado, and my experience was a mixed bag. While there are some positives to highlight, there are also recurring issues that need to be addressed.

**Ambiance:**
Federales has a vibrant and lively atmosphere that fits well with the trendy RiNo district. The decor is modern and inviting, making it a popular spot for gatherings with friends and casual dining.

**Service:**
Unfortunately, the service at Federales has been consistently disappointing during my visits. On this particular occasion, we waited over 10 minutes without being greeted by any staff member. This seems to be a common issue, as it has happened on multiple visits. Improving the speed and attentiveness of the service would greatly enhance the overall experience.

**Food:**
The food at Federales is definitely a highlight. Despite the lackluster service, the variety of tacos we ordered were all tasty and well-prepared. We tried the Gringo Taco Supreme and the Lamb Quesabirria with Consomé—both were good choices. I wouldn’t say the food was anything amazingly flavorful, but what we got for the price point was good. We really enjoyed the chips and guacamole with tajin!

**Overall Experience:**
Overall, Federales in RiNo offers good food in a lively setting, but the consistently poor service detracts from the experience. It’s a shame because the tacos are pretty good and the ambiance is appealing given its location in RiNo. If the service were improved, it could easily become a top dining destination in the area. I hope to see changes in the future that address these service issues.
