Man cannot live on soy paste and pig intestines alone. Although the Imperial’s dining room is red-dragon-and-white-tablecloth elegant, it attracts a casual crowd of diners looking for the tame thrills that only Chinese food done Colorado-style can provide. All of the American-Chinese favorites are represented — the sesame chickens, sweet-and-sour porks and mu shu everything […]
Located in Golden, not too far from the Coors brewery, In the Zone is first and foremost a sports bar. With eighty flat-screen TVs spread around the huge place (it’s home to a 120-foot bar), chances are that any game that’s on will be showing on one of the screens, whether it’s professional or college […]

A former bar in a Littleton small mall is now home to India’s Best Restaurant & Bar. There’s still a bar — along with a few TVs, friendly servers, and a lengthy syllabus of curries, samosas, naan and tandoori dishes that also includes a chile-intensive, searingly hot lamb vindaloo. –
When Krishan Kappor relocated India’s, his terrific curry house, from its longtime home on the perimeter of Tamarac Square to Tiffany Plaza, he definitely traded up in space. But in February 2015, India’s outgrew that space, too, and now occupies a building farther east on Hampden Avenue. The food is as good as ever and […]
Indulge is a warm, happy house, with a curtained dining room, a marble-topped dwarf bar and what look like furnishings from a Normandy farmhouse restaurant unloaded into an abandoned Italian trattoria – which this space used to be. Chef/owner William Wahl’s family runs a restaurant in France, Au Vrai Normand, and after a stint with […]
Ben Parsons has long been a wine-industry renegade, perhaps most notably for his canned wine, which drove Infinite Monkey Theorem to a new level of success and launched something of a packaging sea change among young makers. Just as brazen was planting his winery in the urban core of Denver and tapping into city culture […]
This spot in the former Pete’s Patio Bar is a kitschy mix of rustic simplicity and retro elegance with solid bar fare and live music. Inga’s was inspired by a Swedish ski cabin, and the battle-scarred hardwood floors look as though they’ve been deliberately dented by the stomp of ski boots. Meanwhile, tufted, swiveling, brass-studded […]

Brothers Andre and Aaron Lobato got an early start in the restaurant business, helping their parents run the 14th Street Bar and Grill, which had a 22-year run in Boulder. Just before that restaurant finally closed, the siblings took a cross-country trip and, along with their friend Joey Newman, decided to open their own place, […]
Willy Wonka take notice: Denver has its own magician of all things sweet. Chef and inventor Ian Kleinman opened the Inventing Room, his science-lab dessert bar in the Ballpark neighborhood in October 2015, offering liquid-nitrogen ice cream, grape-jelly cotton candy, exploding whipped cream and plenty of other delights. Kids and adults alike queued up to […]
While the number of Irish bars in Denver has dwindled over the years, the Rover is still going strong. Open since 2005, it’s the perfect place to catch a Saturday-afternoon buzz, preferably kicked off with a proper pint of Guinness. On cold winter days, the comfy pub offers refuge, while its rooftop patio beckons when […]

The spirits at this RiNo distillery are brought to life in custom-made stills and include genièvre, rye aquavit, rum, absinthe, whiskey and even a gin made with ponderosa pine needles sourced from a tree growing on the tasting room’s 10,000-square-foot, dog-friendly patio. Sip on a local beer or an option from a heavy-hitting drink list […]
For anyone familiar with the Asian restaurants of Denver’s many strip malls, Iwayama Sushi is instantly comfortable, with its hodge-podge decor from the pages of a Lowe’s home improvement catalog, rows of maneki-neko cats with paws raised in solidarity, and perky soy sauce bottles on every table. An extensive list of maki, nigiri and other […]
Izakaya Amu is the yin to the yang of the rest of the restaurants in this small empire. It shares a wall with the raucous Sushi Zanmai, but it’s a tiny oasis, an authentic izakaya. You won’t find sushi here; instead, the gracious staff serves you classic Japanese country food and shabu shabu, which you […]
