Around our office, we celebrate Taco Tuesday every single week.
Two of our agents in particular, Gabe Martin and Ben Smith, are particularly passionate about tacos. On Gabe’s instagram, every Tuesday for the last 66 weeks, he has highlighted different taco restaurants, given listing tours, shared his love of tacos with his fellow agents, highlighted special properties, updated his audience on the real estate market, and more, all in the name of Taco Tuesday.
This year’s National Taco Day is special - because it also falls on a Tuesday. This particular phenomenon will not occur again until 2033. To celebrate, Ben and Gabe, and Janice hit up three local taco joints to see what tacos they had to offer. Check out their findings in the reel below:
Did we convince you to go grab some tacos? Well, you’re in luck. Here’s a list of our mostly highly recommended spots throughout Colorado.

Lady Nomada
Arvada, CO
“Lady Nomada in Arvada is my favorite. Birria tacos are the best! Great atmosphere, yummy margs!” - Sue Perrault, Realtor at West + Main Homes
T/ACO
Boulder, CO
“A full menu of hand held street tacos! We love going there for the variety and atmosphere that houses a prime college town vibe. My kids love the duck tacos, which the staff (made up of all CU students) continually thinks is hilarious. Plus the house margarita is served tall and not filled with sugary mixer...if you know what I mean!” - Ben Smith, Resident Taco Expert + Realtor at West + Main Homes

Oh and their Margaritas are fire.” - Paige Acton, Realtor at West + Main Homes
Tacos, Tequila, Whiskey
Denver, CO
“I love their Queso a la Plancha taco & Pollo Al Chipotle. Let's not forget they have a stellar happy hour and the margs are delish! Fun fact, they were initially named "pinche" but once the authorities caught wind of the name it was a "no-go" unless they could name the cart something else.” - Lauren Kress, Realtor at West + Main Homes
Bartaco
Denver, CO
“Situated in the highlands on 32nd & Tejon immediately gives this joint street cred. for walkability and people watching! There are zero TV's and the music is always turned up one notch too high, so if you like to party... this is the spot. Hand held tacos from raw tuna, pork belly & oyster separate Bartaco from the rest. It's the creativity and flavor that keeps us coming back!” - Ben Smith, Resident Taco Expert + Realtor at West + Main Homes
El Consome de Morelos
