A quintessential “hole-in-the-wall” - El Callejon is a hidden gem. The food is AMAZING, all cooked to order, and almost everything on the menu is gluten free. Seating is limited, but on nice days we sit outside anyway. We have been here a handful of times and will be back many more!Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options and easily modified for dairy-free!

The vegan super arepas here are delicious. This is definitely one of my favorite places in Golden, especially if I'm looking for a relatively healthy lunch.

The food is very good, but it’s wildly expensive for the portion sizes and the type of food compared to other restaurants with similar menu items in the area. Especially being a grab and go type of place, $50 for two people for takeout lunch is just a little crazy

Obsessed with their Al pastor super arepas. Could eat them every day!! I’ve tried them at other places in Denver and they have the best by far. SO GOOD!

I was looking for some good vegetarian options while we were adventuring in Golden. I came upon El Callejon and decided to check it out on a Friday afternoon. This place is a literal hole in the wall with a few tables. Don't be fooled, though! This small restaurant packs major flavor into its food. There are ample vegetarian options too. I opted for the veggie burrito. It comes filled with beans, peppers, onions, cheese, rice and probably a few other things I've missed. The sauce on it is delightful. My wife got a chicken quesadilla which came with 3 different sauces and she absolutely devoured it. The food came out fast and the prices were great for the portion sizes. Would definitely dine here again.
El Callejon is my favorite restaurant in downtown Golden. Their super arepa is second to none!

Just had a couple of arepas from this place and let me tell you.... Wow! Most delicious bite I've had in a while! Authentic Latin flavors and great service! Didn't have to wait long either, and it was made to order. I'm looking forward to tasting more of their menu. Excellent!

I would go far out of my way to eat here again. The arepas are perfect. Al Pastor all the way. Lots of authentic food and drinks. Absolutely try it. Golden is an adorable town. Summer nights are around perfect time to come wander after eating.Vegetarian options: Almost every variety of food has a vegetarian option here.Parking: You may have to park above main but should be able to find some.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options

Delicious & fresh Latin American food! We recommend the vegan arepa and pork & chili pupusa with salsa at the side. Both are gluten-free. Very nice staff and quick service! We also loved looking at all of the beautiful decor inside of the restaurant. Can't wait to try more dishes!
