Kike’s Red Tacos

One of the first places to really kick off the birria taco trend in Denver, Kike’s has expanded into birria burritos, birria quesadillas, and even birria ramen. But really, it’s all about those tacos. The beef is simmered for more than eight hours in its spicy, saucy bath before hitting the griddle in cheesed-up corn tortillas and served with a cup of consomme for dunking. Take them to Highland Park, about a five-minute drive away, for people-watching with a side of consomme.
