This is just a tortilla bakery, but if you want some food to take to go, they have amazing tamales and enchiladas. They are SPICY though, so stay away if you're not into that. The salsa is delicious (also veryyy spicy), and the tortilla chips are made fresh every day. There isn't much advertisement on the building, but just walk in and tell them what you want, they're very nice!

Hot new restaurant just around the corner on 41st and Tejon. The menu blends both Japanese and Italian cuisines - it's very unique and delicious. I'd recommend this place for a special night out as it can get pricey with wine and/or cocktails (the Japanese whisky and soda is delicious - sounds simple but it's great).

Coffee Shop during the day, bar in the evening. Good bagels (for Denver - they are outsourced from Leroy's) and I believe they have added a few other menu items. Nice large outdoor space in the summer.

Think Chipotle but local. Counter service food (burritos, bowls, quesadillas, etc.) and a full service bar with both indoor and outdoor seating. Good for a quick, cheap, local spot.
