Tacontento | Our Story

The Happy Taco With Two Roots

Born from Guatemalan and Mexican roots in Denver's Westwood neighborhood, we cook honest, from-scratch food that makes people come back and bring their friends.
What the Name Means

What the Name Means

"Taco contento" simply means happy taco — and that's the whole idea. We want every plate to put a smile on your face, whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth.
Two Countries, One Menu

Two Countries, One Menu

We're rooted in both Guatemalan and Mexican culinary traditions — and we honor both, fully. That means Guatemalan shukos live right alongside quesabirria and caldo 7 mares, because both belong here.

Home in Westwood

Our original kitchen sits on West Mississippi Avenue in Denver's Westwood neighborhood — one of the city's most vibrant Latino communities. The menu runs in English and Spanish because that's who walks through our door.

Salsas made fresh, tortillas cooked to order — that's not a tagline, it's just how we've always done it.

What started in Westwood has grown to more than a dozen locations — but the Denver original is still the heart of everything we do.
