About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Hot spot
Chef Johnny Curiel debuts Mezcaleria Alma in Denver’s LoHi neighborhood, bringing the dynamic spirit of Mexico City to life with CDMX-inspired small plates and an expansive Mexican spirits menu. Located beside Curiel’s first solo restaurant, Alma Fonda Fina, Mezcaleria Alma marks the natural next chapter in Curiel’s culinary journey to share the beauty of Mexico through food. Each dish and drink draws from Curiel’s experiences in one of the world’s most renowned culinary capitals—a city where culture and tradition merge with global inspiration and constant innovation.

While Alma Fonda Fina is a love letter to the home-cooked traditions of Chef Curiel’s childhood—the comfort food found at traditional fondas across Mexico—Mezcaleria Alma embodies the unbridled innovation that defines CDMX.

  • Dining Room Reservation

    Multiple dates available
    In keeping with the spirit of a traditional mezcaleria found in Mexico City, the elongated, plush banquette anchors each table inviting guests to sink in and relax. Every corner of the dining room reveals treasures from Johnny’s travels, paired with captivating art like intricate Mexican embroidery that sparks conversation. At the heart of the space is a captivating mural on traditional bark paper by local Latinx artist Maria Morante, a powerful homage to Mexican folk art.

    Kristina was unbelievable. We gave her free rein over our dining experience and she hit it out of the ball park. We sat at the counter and so glad we did!

    This was hands down one of the best dining experiences we have had in Denver. We went for our anniversary and Jeremy was so incredible helping us celebrate. Mexico City is one of our favorite cities and this place pays true homage to it. Can’t wait to be back

    Was there for private charity event. Tasting menu was great. Cocktails were unique. Beet spritz was okay, heavier on the beet than anticipating. Corn sour was unexpectedly tasty. Service was great, and overall friendly.
