What decade is this again? With the opening of Tony Roma’s downtown (in one of the biggest restaurant black holes in the city), we’re having flashbacks to the ’80s — when baby back ribs were one of the hottest restaurant trends. The 46-year-old restaurant chain make its first appearance in…

“I shouldn’t like this!” I said to myself as I bit off huge, hasty mouthfuls of the torta Cubana at Taqueria El Gallito (403 Havana Street). I’ve never bothered with any kind of sandwich when visiting Mexican eateries in the past, since baguette-like bread doesn’t (at least to me) seem…

Two Denver restaurants are expanding in different direction to accommodate customer demand and show off some kitchen favorites. The Kitchen Table is adding lunch hours, while Stowaway Kitchen is taking on dinner three nights a week. The Kitchen Table has been a favorite since 2013 for Midwesterners and others seeking…

The new restaurant at the Kimpton Hotel Born has a spot for you.
