Chez Jose is a solid Southern California style taco / burrito place. Decent salsa bar and really good meats and good tortillas. Did I mention cheap? Note - bus your own table.

Larimer square seems to have a lot going on, and one thing it has is Osteria Marco. Recommended. It was pretty busy for us, but we got lucky with the wine table being open. The house wine was good too. The specialty seems to be house cured meats. The menu is heavy on small dishes, except Saturday when they have suckling pig. I had a lamb panini w/ goat cheese and tapenade. Good stuff. Everybody else's reviews were good too.
Staff was friendly but feisty as well.
