You really haven’t had ice cream until you’ve had Sweet Cow’s. Spike-haired Drew Honness, a young DIY-style entrepreneur who got his start in the ice cream business scooping for Springs-based Josh & John’s. This Platt Park outpost boasts the same friendly air that characterizes the other locations, and the ice cream is to die for, […]
Both Swift’s Breakfast House and Swift’s Kitchen are the sort of no-nonsense, street-side diners that seem to invite you in to have a seat and eat heartily – and it also serves Pete’s Coney Island red chili (named after a classic downtown restaurant that was demolished in 1990). If you were a fan of the […]
Although golf is a big sport in Colorado, there are few opportunities to play in the dead of winter. The bar, which is next to the Robusto Room, has state-of-the-art golf simulators that allow you to play eighteen holes in under an hour — on one of more than fifty championship golf courses.
Head to the foothills for this creekside barbecue joint. Your jaunt will be rewarded with specialties like Switchback’s Montreal-style brisket, which is cured with spices before being smoked. Other surprises await on the menu, too, like rich duck breast, housemade bacon, chicken legs and smoked salmon. Buy them by the pound, butcher shop-style, or try […]
As its name suggests, much of the menu at this eatery is devoted to foods that are vessels for syrup – and the kitchen makes several versions of the sticky stuff, including classics and seasonal offerings. The syrup gets poured over pancakes, waffles and French toast in Syrup’s sun-soaked, garden-level dining room that serves breakfast, […]

Szechuan Chinese has been a Lakewood institution for decades – and its dumplings attract fans from around the city. The focus here is on cuisine from the Sichuan area of China, but Szechuan also offers the usual suspects – egg-drop soup, crab Rangoon, and those potstickers stuffed with a spiced pork mixture that defies description […]
Szechuan Tasty House often looks closed, but it’s worth a walk up to the doors to see if they’re locked. The no-frills spot serves excellent cuisine, with Sichuan specialties like Ma Po tofu and Chongqing-style la zi ji (translated here as “Chong Qing style deep fried spicy chicken”) – cozying up next to Imperial fare […]
There have been many changes at Table 6 since the cozy eatery opened in 2004, and the latest came in 2023, when owner Aaron Forman passed away. The neighborhood favorite is now in the very capable hands of general manager Amanda Davis and chef Aniedra Nichols, who became its owners in June of that year. […]

Sometimes you want to get away from it all, but you don’t feel like braving I-70 for hours. Head up the hill instead to Table Mountain, an adorable Southwestern inn that’s also a smart choice for a great meal. The kitchen puts out superb Southwestern-focused cuisine and then follows it up with wonderful desserts, like […]
It’s not surprising that the sign over the South Federal Taco House, which is almost bigger than the building below it, is more of an icon in this town than the restaurant itself.
It’s not surprising that the sign over the South Federal Taco House, which is almost bigger than the building below it, is more of an icon in this town than the restaurant itself. Despite age spots, facelifts and weathering, the building maintains a roadhouse charm and tidiness that stand in opposition to the forces of decay. […]
Along the stretch of Colfax where Denver begins to give way to Aurora, a motley collection of strip malls, repurposed gas stations and shabby storefronts house an equally diverse collection of culinary experiences. In their midst sits Taco Mex, an immaculately painted red-and-white box that looks like it might once have been a fast-food outlet, […]
With their bright-red branding, the Taco Star locations in Denver, Thornton and Aurora beckon you to stop for a fix of Mexican-style greasy-spoon goodness. While the tacos are solid, the actual star may be the big, filling burritos. Be sure to order extra salsa, too.

The Taco Wagon, crouching in the parking lot of El Mercado, a Mexican grocery in Lafayette, commands eye-rollingly long waits, but it’s worth missing whatever commitment you’ve got lined up — school, court, hell, even your nuptials — to first profess your love for the breakfast burritos. They’re delivered through a sliding glass window, behind […]
Tacos are first and foremost street food, so carts, trucks and trailers are obvious candidates for where to seek out the amazing antojitos. But in the Athmar Park neighborhood, people are beginning to figure out that a brightly painted shipping container festooned with sparkling lights is home to some of the best tacos around. TacoBlock […]
The menu at this strip-mall operation is a greatest-hits list of everything there is to love about Mexican street food, plus a few surprises (Mexican consomme?). But the best item is the torta: messy, dripping, delicious and offered in several variations, including the D.F., served either “combinaci
