My son and I decided to step out of the usual routine and try something totally different this morning. We stopped by RxR thinking they did ribs, baked beans, and the like. To our surprise at this time the concept focuses on Texas influenced tacos and sandwiches. The owners Rick and Ryan were great about explaining their menu so we took a chance. I was blown away the quality of the food was amazing. Flavorful, rich, delicious 😋 I was on the hunt for something that would be a flavor explosion 💥 in my mouth and this food did not disappoint. I can’t recommend them enough if you haven’t tried them yet you should do yourself the favor. These guys have the service part down service was exceptional and it’s clear they know BBQ 🍖. We will definitely be back thanks fellas you’re doing a great service to your community!

Absolutely fantastic! Coming from north Texas, I did not expect to find a spot like this but man these tacos are phenomenal. The bbq is top notch and the tacos were so good…and very filling. We enjoyed leftovers the next day. Highly recommend the breakfast tacos and barbacoa - amazing. The slab of brisket in the oven bfast taco was juicy and perfect. Great salsas too

Wow… just wow. That was the best tasting barbacoa that I’ve ever eaten. The brisket taco was fantastic as well. I don’t find myself in this part of town often (I live up north), but I know where I’m going every time I’m in the neighborhood from now on! Great job RxR, keep going!! 👊

I grew up eating the best BBQ in central Texas and have been searching for comparable BBQ in Colorado for 6 years. This man knows what he is doing with that brisket. The bark and flavor is excellent and reminds me of home. I dropped $110 testing their menu and loved everything. The breakfast tacos, the brisket taco and brisket sandwich, were the best in Colorado, and I would say that they even beat the heavy hitters in Texas. I will be back for the Barbacoa on the weekend.
