The menu at Rocky Mountain Taco offers a unique twist on classic Mexican cuisine, with a laid-back vibe that perfectly matches the mountain setting of Vail. One of the standout options is the Elk Taco, which features rich, tender elk meat seasoned with smoky spices, giving it an adventurous yet comforting flavor. Another crowd favorite is the Baja Fish Taco, where perfectly crispy fish meets a refreshing slaw, providing a delightful contrast of textures and a zesty kick. For those craving something heartier, the Brisket Taco is a must-try, with slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth beef complemented by a tangy barbecue sauce that enhances its smoky depth.
Vegetarians aren't left out either, with the Grilled Veggie Taco being a delightful option that combines charred seasonal vegetables with creamy avocado and a squeeze of lime. The Pork Belly Taco is another highlight, boasting crispy, caramelized edges with juicy, flavorful meat at the core. Each taco is served with a side of fresh salsas, ranging from mild to spicy, allowing guests to customize the heat level to their liking.
For those with an appetite for something more substantial, the Chili con Carne is a perfect choice—rich, hearty, and full of bold flavors. On the lighter side, the Street Corn offers a perfect accompaniment, with grilled corn slathered in a creamy, slightly tangy sauce that’s topped with crumbled cheese and chili powder.
What sets Rocky Mountain Taco apart is its commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients that complement the adventurous spirit of Vail. Whether you're fueling up after a day on the slopes or simply indulging in some great food, the menu provides an excellent mix of traditional Mexican flavors and mountain-inspired creativity.
