When we spoke with owner Doug Naiman on Monday, he had high hopes that Aviano Coffee would be pouring soon in its new home at 244 Detroit Street. One city department had already signed off on the space, with only two more permits to go. But it looks like the…
Il Posto just celebrated its sixth birthday, and Gretchen Kurtz marked the occasion by presenting Andrew Frizzi’s authentic Italian restaurant with a nice, shiny review.

Westword’s Danielle Lirette brought back these…
I went to a tap room to watch the Super Bowl, thinking that there would be a rollicking crowd with whom to celebrate the Ravens’ victory. Instead, there was a single guy sitting next to us with a keg belly, a snooty bartender and a few tables of disgruntled 49er…

Once a year, an entire day is set aside to stop and appreciate Nutella. And today, February 5, is that day. This is the fifth annual celebration of World Nutella Day, which means it’s time to celebrate this fabulous, chocolate-hazelnut spread. Whether you’re a Nutella aficionado or a Nutella newbie,…
If somebody asked you what restaurateurs do for a living, you’d probably say “feed people.” And you’d be right. Sort of. What they really do is please people, because if people aren’t happy, sooner or later they won’t show up to be fed. This is why restaurants, new ones in…
It’s a few months behind schedule, thanks to predictable construction snafus, but on February 18, following a series of soft-opening events, Udi’s Pizza, Cafe & Bar will open in the former Encore space at 2550 East Colfax Avenue. See also: – Udi’s Colfax Pizza Bar taking over the former Encore…
almost everything about the Weathervane Cafe, which opened last fall on East 17th Avenue, is as cute as cute can be. It’s tiny, for starters — the interior seats a mere nineteen people. But the interior is filled with eye-catching flower arrangements, vases and ornamental items (some of them for…
Tamayo has been holding down its corner of Larimer Square for over a decade, and owner Richard Sandoval decided the restaurant was due for a remodeling job — a million-dollar remodeling job, which involved both the interior and the menu.

I think I may have found my favorite new taqueria — at least when it comes to salsas (and street tacos and chicken mole enchiladas) — and just in case you’re wondering, it’s not on Federal. Can you guess where I’m eating? Special bonus: Anyone who gives the first correct…
Suffice it to say that I eat out more than the general population, unless, of course, the general population can catalog more than 450 restaurant meals in a year — which is about the number of breakfasts, lunches and dinners that I stomached in 2012. Pathetic, isn’t it? But all…
Although there aren’t many of them, craft beer variety packs — which typically offer three or four different kinds of beers in a twelve-pack — have been on liquor stores shelves for a while. But that trend looks like it’s going to become more prevalent in Colorado this year as…
Parisi Italian Market & Deli reopened last Thursday after closing for two weeks to renovate its space at 4401 Tennyson Street.

Cafe Society dished out four Guess Where? contests last week, zigzagging from a spectacular seafood stew from Cafe Brazil, to a plate of duck meatballs from Cafe Bar, which now has a new chef, to a flight of potent beers that induced a long, long slumber…
