The 100 Best Denver Restaurants We Can't Live Without

Rooted Craft American Kitchen

Rooted Craft American Kitchen
Lucy Beaugard
Since opening in May 2023, former Vesta chef Nicholas Kayser’s first brick-and-mortar (he also has a stall in Avanti Boulder) has been finding its rhythm in the Highland neighborhood, dishing up the kind of fare you could eat once (or twice) a week, including a choose-your-own meats and frites adventure, classic carbonara made with local pasta from Sfoglina, burgers, classic sandwich favorites and more. The bar is skilled at crafting low-ABV cocktails, too, which means you can definitely order another one as you linger on the patio for some people-watching. ($$$)
