From waffles to tacos.

The former Denny’s at 900 W. Alameda Ave. in Denver’s Baker neighborhood will soon be home to a quick-serve taquería, according to Ray Rosado, who brokered the deal for the landlord and tenant.

Josue Mora, who is behind the restaurant, also has a Mexican spot in Lone Tree called Mariachi Loco. This one will go by a different name, Rosado said.

Patrons will drive in the lot and see employees with tablets in hand ready to take orders, Rosado said. The restaurant will rely heavily on pickup and delivery.

“It’s kind of like a Sonic,” said Rosado, who is with Lee & Associates.

Denny’s, the national breakfast chain, closed at the 3,600-square-foot building a year ago. It had operated there since 1972, just off Interstate 25 on a small island between Alameda Avenue, Santa Fe Drive and Kalamath Street.

Rosado said the busy streets made the spot attractive.

“If you add up counts on Alameda, Kalamath and Santa Fe, you have over 70,000 cars a day,” he said. “If you add I-25, now you have over 120,000 eyeballs to that building and the signage.”
