Tamayo

Tamayo’s owner, nationally renowned restaurateur Richard Sandoval, grew up working in his family’s Acapulco restaurants, and when he opened his first restaurant in Colorado, in a prime corner space on Larimer Square, he billed his cross of traditional dishes with contemporary techniques as “Modern Mexican.” But a decade and several restaurants later, Tamayo was beginning […]

Tangerine

There can never be too many breakfast emporiums, and Tangerine, which Alex Schuler opened in June 2011 next door to Arugula, his farm-to-table dinner restaurant, is a welcome addition to the Boulder scene — particularly since it also serves brunch and lunch seven days a week. The fifty-seat space — contemporary, citrus-hued and eye-openingly bright […]

Tap Fourteen Colorado Beer Garden

Tap Fourteen opened its second Denver beer bar in January 2018, following the original on the rooftop of Hayter’s at 1920 Blake Street. This one is on street level, so it lacks the views of the LoDo location, but the wrap-around patio makes an ideal spot for neighbors and their pooches to wander in for […]

Taqueria Mi Pueblo

Taqueria Mi Pueblo has held down the corner of 23rd and Federal for the better part of two decades, continuously adding onto and improving both the building and the menu. They’ve joined the $2 breakfast burrito fray that marks this stretch of Federal, they offer a whole roast chicken special done in the style of […]

Tarantula Billiards and Bar

After a long run on the second-floor corner of 15th and Champa streets, Tarantula Billiards moved to street level a block east in early 2012, giving the pool hall much more visibility. The new space has a sleek and classy look, closer to that of sister pool hall ZanZibar Billiards and Grill, which is owned […]

Tarasco’s New Latino Cuisine

Tarasco’s peeks out from its corner spot like the shy girl in a homemade dress at her first dance. The interior walls are covered in Spanish aphorisms and descriptions of fruit and vegetable drinks (jugos and licuados), part of chef/owner Noe Bermudez’s dedication to healthy food. Tarasco’s has a way of creating beauty and perfection […]

Taste of Denmark

The European-style bakery in Lakewood turns out a truly astonishing range of kringles, cream puffs, strudels, croissants, eclairs, sweet breads, pies, cakes, tarts, muffins, cookies and, of course, Danishes. Enjoy them to go or on the bakery’s sunny patio – including in winter, when the staff sets up outdoor heaters to keep customers cozy.

Taste of Philly

The original six-seater takeout place on Colorado Boulevard was founded by a guy from Pennsylvania, and even though it’s now owned by folks from south Jersey, they still know how to make a real Philadelphia cheesesteak. It’s a great sandwich in every way, from the caramelized onions to the chopped steak to the American cheese […]

Taste of Thailand

Taste of Thailand was one of metro Denver’s first Thai restaurants when it opened in Englewood in 1994, and since its move to South Broadway in 2015, it’s remained one of the best. Chef/owner Noy Farrell visits her home country regularly, touring Thailand on the hunt for new flavors and trends. Light and vibrant salads […]

The Tatarian

This bar from the owners of another cocktail heavy hitter, Union Lodge No. 1, is an homage to the Berkeley neighborhood’s past, when property buyers would receive a shade tree as a gift from the city; you’ll still see Tatarian maples standing proudly in the area. The cocktails here incorporate specific liquors, liqueurs, bitters and […]

Tavern Downtown

Perhaps the best feature of the Tavern Downtown is its massive rooftop patio, a broad space that features expansive views of downtown and the Front Range. During mealtimes — including weekend brunch — a menu of bar-food classics is available for the groups that sit at tables outside and in, usually partaking in daytime drinking […]

Tavern Tech Center

Like the other Taverns, the Tavern Tech Center draws a sizable nightly crowd from the surrounding neighborhoods. Those twenty- and thirty-something professionals pack into the dark bar and expansive back patio for drink specials, televised sporting events and socializing. While many come just for the beers and the party, this Tavern also does a substantial […]

Tavern Uptown

Like the other Taverns, the Tavern Uptown draws a sizable nightly crowd from the surrounding neighborhoods. Those twenty- and thirty-something professionals pack into the dark bar and expansive back patio for drink specials, televised sporting events and socializing. While many come just for the beers and the party — which is more mellow Uptown than […]

Tavernetta

It’s been more than seven years since the talented team behind Boulder’s Frasca added its first (but not last) restaurant in the Denver metro area, but this Union Station spot for Italian fare often feels like it’s been around much longer than that. A more boisterous and lively experience than Frasca’s subdued elegance, it excels […]
