Good old school Mexican food! Had to find another place for Mexican food after Bennys closed. After months of searching and eating a lot of burritos and green chili, this is my "go to" for Mexican food from now on.

The fact that they have white queso dip in Denver….hallelujah!! Service was great! Israel , Janet, and Angie brought the feel good vibes! We’ve been searching for good Mexican and this is it! Enchilada sauce- yumm, guacamole- double yumm, and the margaritas are perfection- PLEASE check out this spot! Asap!

I read a Westword article that rated this place among the top 10 for best green chilie in Denver. The restaurants' website also boasts about having the best green chilie in Denver, so I checked it out.
I was promptly greeted by a friendly staff member who got me seated and quickly got me chips and salsa and a drink order. However I waited 10 minutes for the server to come take my food order who was a different person. I was at first confused because I thought the person who took my drink order was my server, LOL. Also none of the tables had salt or pepper shakers, not sure why.
Anyway, I got the chili relleno plate, which was delicious. However, I have had much better green chili in Denver, and unfortunately the green chilie here did not make the top 10 for me. It was pretty tasty, but there was no heat whatsoever. I would have even been okay with some mild heat but there was none. Also, the green chili looked a lot different than the photos on their website and the Westword article, which I found strange.

Excellent, authentic Mexican restaurant here in downtown Englewood. We’ve been coming here for a few years and the food and service is always consistent. The chips and salsa are great. l really like the homemade chips and the salsa has a great flavor and texture. If you love chili rellanos like I do, then this place makes the best! The pork green chili on top is great- has chunks of shredded pork and the chili isn’t too spicy, very authentic tasting. It’s got a Tex Mex style to it. Ever since owners moved down the street to this location, there is so much seating available. We’ve never had to wait for a table. I definitely recommend stopping in. Other entrees we’ve tried are the enchiladas and carne asada burrito, they’ve all been great.

Long-time customer at El Tep (back to when it was next door to current location) so it’s an honor to finally write this review. If you are a fan of Colorado-style Mexican food, like large burritos smothered in homemade green chile, served with some of the best table salsa out there, and with the option of mixing in American diner style bfast food for at affordable prices, then this is your place! Personal fave is the green chile plate, TRULY EXCEPTIONAL! Service is quick and no nonsense. Viva EL TEP!!
