El Nopal Restaurant

The traditional Mexican food created here at El Nopal follows the age-old recipes brought here by Rosa “Ma” Torres from various regions of the Mexican countryside as well as her own recipes. Our kitchen combines not only the best ingredients indigenous to both Colorado and Mexico, but also the tools and techniques of both old and new worlds.

Mexican cuisine is noted for its delicious blending of herbs and spices in combination with fine meats and vegetables. We use only selected chili pods in making our red chili sauce. We use only one hundred percent vegetable oil in our fried foods and we use no artificial flavoring or preservatives in our cooking.

We sincerely hope your dining experience will be a memorable one.
