La Loma Mexican Restaurant
Photo WCarbone

La Loma is situated at the top of a hill at the top of a [1]steep driveway, and at the top of most Denver-Mexican-Restaurant lists. It’s one of the best Mexican restaurants in the Denver area and definately one of the classiest.

“La Loma is located in a distinctive Denver home that was constructed in 1887. The home accommodates a Cantina with a large fireplace, and three unique dining rooms - The Colonial Room, The Victorian Room and The Galleria are a blend of early American and Southwestern Cultures.” [Excerpt is from La Loma's website]

The Old House is an island of tranquility and class in an [2]old, North Denver neighborhood. Dark woods, exposed brick/beams, cozy booths, and an antique, (working) taco machine provide the background for this above average Mexican restaurant.

Their specialties include:
Green Chile, Chile Rellenos, Fajitas and Margaritas
Excellent Service & Atmosphere

From the menu:
Sizzling Fajitas
(All fajitas served on a bed of onions with guacamole, pico de gallo, sour cream, roasted jalapenos and home made flour tortillas.)

Chicken (mesquite broiled chicken breast) $13.95
Steak (mesquite broiled skirt steak.) $14.95
Pork (mesquite broiled pork shoulder.) $13.95

Shrimp (mesquite broiled, gulf sized shrimp.) $16.95

“Somewhat higher prices are commensurate with the overall higher quality (all aspects) of this restaurant, including a large wait staff which is there to meet your every need - fast.”
