Food & Drink

There was one closure to report this week: an Italian eatery in Wheat Ridge.

“It’s just food from my heart. The goal of the food is just to be simple, beautiful and delicious,” says owner Andres Vega.

It’s now open for lunch and the menu includes a throwback to an old-school Northside Italian joint, 3 Sons.

“It’s so important for me. It’s like Little Argentina.”

Two and a half years after its debut, owner Delores Tronco and executive chef Luke Miller have revamped the menu.

He used to be Von Miller’s private chef, too.

It will be the fourth outpost of the burger joint that got its start as a watering hole in Cherry Creek in 1945.

It comes from the team behind Mizu Izakaya and serves artisanal matcha, signature drinks and soft-serve ice cream.

Let’s debate.

The second venture from chef Johnny Curiel is centered on corn nixtamalization traditions and wood-fired cooking techniques.

A trio of spots debuted while four said goodbye.

One local chain is offering $1 fried chicken sandwiches on July 6 for the occasion.

The OG trailer launched in 2021 and now owner Hayden Clark is ready to double down.

After closing her first solo venture, Cantina Loca, the James Beard finalist is back.

“We were lucky to get these super special ingredients and work with them,” says co-owner and chef Ty Leon.

The family-run operation continues to protect Colorado heritage through land stewardship and wildlife conservation.

From a secret late-night ramen to a chili-smothered burger at an old-school favorite, it was a delicious June.
